Praxis mit Meerblick

"Nora Kaminski - without a doctorate." This is how Tanja Wedhorn introduces herself to the residents of Rügen as a doctor in "Practice with a sea view". The former ship's doctor did not land on the Baltic Sea island entirely voluntarily. The quick-witted, cheerful nature from the Ruhr area first has to assert itself under the idiosyncratic northern lights. But the 42-year-old doctor is in financial difficulties. Her reserves are just enough for a room in an "old captain's house full of character", where hot water is not guaranteed and the cranky landlord Matthias Samland (Hans-Uwe Bauer) gives her the cold shoulder. For now, she can only rely on her doctor colleague and former college friend, Dr. Richard Freese (Stephan Kampwirth), who is looking for a partner with unusual ideas, but is secretly still attached to his childhood sweetheart Nora. The practice team is completed by medical assistant Mandy (Morgane Ferru).

Willkommen auf Rügen

90 mins

Consultation hours with a view of the Baltic Sea instead of the sound of the Caribbean sea: the former ship's doctor, Nora Kaminski, ends up on Rügen not entirely voluntarily. The 42-year-old doctor is in financial difficulties. Her reserves are just enough for a room in an "old captain's house full of character", where hot water is not guaranteed and the cranky landlord Matthias Samland gives her the cold shoulder. But after a few professional setbacks, Nora has to be happy to be able to work in the practice of her friend from college, Dr. Richard Freese to start over. Due to her dedicated way of taking care of patients, the doctor soon gets into conflicts. She is supposed to help a young accident patient tell her father something: The 17-year-old is pregnant by her boyfriend, whom her father is trying to keep away from her at all costs. And the doctor without a doctorate gets in real trouble with a vain colleague in the Rügen clinic when she questions his diagnosis. The tit-for-tat response from Dr. Heckmann: He ensures that word gets around as to why Nora lost her previous job on a cruise ship. As soon as she arrived on the Baltic Sea island, she would like to give up immediately. However, her partner Richard is undeterred in staying the course.
