The Doctor's Dilemma is a play by George Bernard Shaw first staged in 1906. It is a problem play about moral dilemmas created by limited medical resources and the conflicts between the demands of private medicine as a business and a vocation. The eponymous dilemma of the play is that of the newly honoured doctor Sir Colenso Ridgeon, who has developed a revolutionary new cure of tuberculosis. As his friends arrive to congratulate him on his success, he is visited by two figures who present him with a difficult dicision. He has room for one more present in his clinic; should he give it to Louis Dubedat, a brilliant but absolutely immoral artist or Dr. Blenkinsop, a poor and rather ordinary physician who is a truly good person? Dr. Ridgeon's dilemma is heightened when he falls for Jennifer Dubetat, the artists wife, who is innocent of her husband's profligacy.
