Description
Dr. Lambert made house calls in the hills above Lyon for thirty-two years, rattling up gravel lanes in a little green car with a battered brown bag on the passenger seat. Children who were brave during their vaccinations got a sugar cube; children who were very brave got two. When he finally hung up his bag, the whole village gathered at the café to shake his hand.
This miniature doctor’s bag pays tribute to caregivers everywhere. Its rich brown leather look is classic and dignified, and a stethoscope and syringe complete the scene. It makes a delightful present for a graduating medical student, a nurse finishing a long first year, a pediatrician’s waiting room or a beloved family doctor on the last day of practice. Set it on a desk among diplomas or on a bookshelf beside medical texts, and it will bring a smile after even the longest shift. It also makes a gentle get-well token for the doctor who, for once, needs some looking after.
