However, due to the amnesia, he is no longer able to practice surgery, and thus becomes known as the "Quack" by the villagers who initially sought his medical expertise but find his newfound skills lacking.Despite this initial setback, the protagonist's innate talent for healing gradually resurfaces, allowing him to save lives in the village one patient at a time. As he helps more and more people regain their health, he starts piecing together fragments of his past, slowly uncovering who he truly is and discovering an underlying strength within himself that transcends his previous identity as a surgeon.This heartwarming tale explores themes of resilience, identity, and the power of human connection amidst adversity, while also celebrating the triumph of the human spirit against all odds.
