I have checked through FAQ's and I actually think I may be more puzzled. But I can't seem to get a Master Doctor. There has been plenty of villagers healed, yet Adept seems to be the highest. Does Medicine have to be at Level 3? It seems unlikely as other skills can reach Master without using tech points to buy advancement.
And I also believe I am yet at the stage where I can start having my children do anything, so I'm looking for help for the adults.

many thanks in advance,

keep having your adepts study the strange plants. you may have to control them pretty tightly, for I have found that most will not do this voluntarily, and wander off to do laundry, chat, or play in the pond.

Thanks. I'll keep at it. I'm constantly dragging a villager towards the plants. And according to my stats, there have been 161 villagers cured!
oops! wrong number. There have been 56 villagers cured. I thought it sounded a tad bit high! But still, 56 cures, and yet not one Master Doctor!

I tried to get a master doctor but it never happened.. i kept studdying "strange plant" but her xp never went up..

Let the fire go out, then people get sick.

That just seems so wrong!!!

Along the same lines you can feed villagers stew that will SICKEN them. That will get the doctors attention.

I am pretty sure you can teach your children to heal by dropping them on sick villagers. Maybe even to master level.

You can definitely get a Master Doctor just like any other Master. You just have to keep at it.

I finally got a Master Doctor, but by the time he got there he was too old to train in anything else. Now if there are no sick villagers, he sits by the Ancient Mosaic complaining about being a little bit lonely. He's the only adult I've ever seen doing that. Maybe now that he's elderly he's in his second childhood.

Actually, I usually get Master Doctors before anything else. I like to take the youngest child and use them to heal. By the time they get to be adult, they're already Adept Doctors if they've had enough healing chances. Then it is just a matter of continuing to heal and studying herbs and there you go. You can often get a Master Doctor that's only 30 something.

Certain stews create more sick villagers to heal.
