Dr. Eleanor Bramwell struggles against society's odds to become a leading female surgeon in 1895 London. Eleanor begins assisting at the East London Hospital of eminent surgeon Sir Herbert Hamilton. From the beginning she is in conflict with Sir Hamilton's old fashioned and often barbaric practices. Eleanor's energy and compassion are recognized by Lady Cora Peters, who sets her up in a small charitable infirmary in the slums.
