Concerned about his father's failing health, Dr. James Kildare (Lew Ayres) and his mentor, Dr. Leonard Gillespie (Lionel Barrymore), travel to the Kildares' country home. After speaking with his father, Kildare decides to start a low-cost health clinic and recruits a couple of unemployed local doctors to help him. But realizing his dream becomes an uphill battle for Kildare after the miserly George Winslow (Gene Lockhart) convinces local high-society types to oppose him.
