The staff of the Sector General hospital could not be more varied.
There’s Thornnastor, the huge, six-legged Tralthan, whose brilliant brain has made him Chief Pathologist.
Dr Prilicla, a fragile, insect-like empath who can sense a patient’s mental state when everything else has failed.
Naydrad, a Kelgian, who are known to be the best nurses.
And then there’s the senior physician, a human called Conway, who was given a chance of a new mission into space, treating emergency patients out in the stars, patients of every size, race, alien form and physiology – all waiting for the arrival of the Ambulance Ship.
But now the medics are in more danger than the victims they are trying to help . . .

Reviews
Sector General is one of the few places in SF that one would really, really like to exist
Over the years White has built a large and enthusiastic audience for his Sector General series, which concerns a fully realized interspecies hospital on the rim of the Galaxy. His fascinating cast of characters and his belief in the basic decency of all intelligent life-forms have seen him through six Sector General books over the past quarter century
Neat, humorous, and humane
