Panic in Echo Park (1977 TV Movie)
"Even If We Do Operate, He'll Be A Vegetable!"...
12 July 2021
Dr. Michael Stoner (Dorian Harewood), is not only busy with his many patients, but is also trying to have a relationship with his beautiful girlfriend. All, while fighting with his penny-pinching boss at the hospital.

Amidst all of this, Dr. Stoner finds himself treating several patients with similar symptoms, that could possibly point to a deadly epidemic.

PANIC IN ECHO PARK is a 1970's made-for-TV drama. It takes a while to get going, first establishing Dr. Stoner as an urban crusader, up against bigots and bureaucracy. Then, while tracking down the source of the illness, he becomes a serious medical detective.

Harewood is suitably intense in his heroic, sleuthing role. This is a decent medical drama, but don't expect a thrill-a-minute, outbreak epic...
