Books featuring at least one main character in a medical profession. Doctors, nurses, surgeons, paramedics, pharmacists and therapists. Most of these are romances but some from other genres too!

I did too, but here's a list of books that have turned what I have often found to be a dry genre into readable and engaging text and narratives for me.
