LA DOTTORESSA DEL DISTRETTO MILITARE is a very typical Italian sex comedy of its era, with little in the way of sex and lots in the way of simple, mugging humour with exaggerated facial expressions and loud line reading. The setting is a military hospital for the ill and injured, and it turns out the place is packed with malingerers and no hopers, hence the arrival of a female doctor with a mind to clean it all up and get everyone healthy again. This is only of interest for the presence of that queen of 1970s exploitation cinema Edwige Fenech, who of course has a couple of nude scenes, including a lengthy dream sequence by one of the other doctors. It's pretty lame.

Edwige Fenech is spinning the heads around on the male members of an Italian catholic military hospital, but is it funny? The humor is in the "Stupid Facial Expressions" department,and the best thing about this silly little comedy must be a dream sequence with Edwige Fenech naked on a hospital bed while a nun is farting soap bubbles. Well, what more can I say...

Edwige Fenech has a great body (as well as a great face to go with it). And she has never been too shy about on-screen nudity. Therefore, a bad film is not worth sitting through just to see Edwige naked - you should try to find one that you can like (or at least tolerate), where her nudity will just be a bonus. "The Lady Medic" is very bad indeed. It is set in a military hospital where the new recruits try to fake all sorts of illnesses to avoid reporting for active duty. There is not much more plot than that, and the comedy is vulgar and unfunny. Basically it revolves around urine, but there is also a "taste" of feces, farts, fatness, genitals, etc. Pure class, I tell you. Near the end, the supposedly "charming" hero shows Edwige how much he "loves" her by practically attacking her! Avoid this film. 0.5 out of 4 stars.
