 Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Rex Morgan, M.D.
And indeed, the fictional town of Glenwood, where Morgan's story is set, seems to have all the medical diversity of New York or Chicago — tuberculosis, organ transplants and drug addiction are only a few of the issues the character tackled in the early years of his practice.
The Morgan strip started in 1948, after polls taken by Publishers Syndicate (The Great Gusto, Tales from the Great Book) indicated newspaper readers were likely to go for a down-home adventure series with a staid, serious professional man in the lead.
Except for the fact that Rex and June are married now (they finally tied the knot on August 2, 1995) and that it's now distributed by King Features, Rex Morgan, M.D. continues just as it always has, appearing in 300-plus newspapers — not a runaway hit, but a very respectable level.

I mean, look at the eyes she’s giving him even before he proclaims that it gives him pleasure to “help.” Sophie is sent packing almost immediately thereafter, and Raju is about to discover that at least some women in America appreciate a guy with brains and don’t care so much about teeth.
Meanwhile, in Rex Morgan, M.D., Rex is wearing a kind of gay robe.

"Rex Morgan is a medical soap-opera strip that has been around since 1948 and has kept current because health issues are something everyone faces.
When Nolan went off to do syndication, my first thought was, "We lost another one", but much to my surprise, I've become quite addicted to his strip work (to the point that I would consider it a loss if he went back to regular comic books).
I think his art has even inspired a new dynamicism to the scripts on Morgan, which was pretty dry and hard to read for years.
