I know there's a lot of female-MC doctor novels. I want to read a new one. But there are so many, I just don't know which one to pick. I've read Bone Painting Coroner, Transmigrator Meets Reincarnator, and Poison Genius Consort so far (favourite is BPC, because of the medical mystery elements). Could those of you who've read a lot of this genre suggest which new series is best for me to start? Please, if possible, list down the doctor novels you've read so far, and then recommend me the best ONE out of those. I don't want a blanket recommendation of all the doctor novels you've read. I'm trying to narrow down to one, out of the whole range of choices.
I can't remember all of the female-MC doctor novels I've read up until now, but my absolute favorite one is Genius Doctor: Black Belly Miss. The MC is absolutely ruthless so beware and there are some very gory scenes. This story may seem a bit repetitive in the beginning, but as the story goes on the plot thickens. Side characters all have distinct personalities and most of them show up again.
Yeah that's the best. There's one called The Good for Nothing Seventh Young Lady... She wasn't a doctor at the beginning but she is half-elf and that makes her an extraordinary talented doctor
Okay, but then which one is your favourite or the one you think is best? Thanks. It looks like Genius Doctor: Black Belly Miss is the number one pick. Unless someone else objects and recommends something that's even better, I'll probably go with that one.
If you are looking for a range of similar novels like that, go to my reading list link and go to “Extreme Yin” page. Currently has 210 novels that have a very similar storyline to the one you may be looking for, although not all are doctors... Tbh, with this many similar novels, it should get a genre of its own, lol
Have you read The Tang Dynasty Female Forensic Doctor? Although there's still not much chapter up (55 chapters), so far it's really good. It's one of the most realistic medical-themed novel out there. But don't go in expecting romance—the romance is slow, and we haven't seen any sweet moments up until now. Up to now, the story is still focused on mystery, and the mc is really cool-headed.
I found Genius Doctor Black Belly Miss got a bit repetitive. As someone who loves those 3 novels, I suggest: https://www.novelupdates.com/series/a-mistaken-marriage-match-record-of-washed-grievances/ https://www.novelupdates.com/series/princess-medical-doctor/ https://www.novelupdates.com/series/divine-doctor-daughter-of-the-first-wife/ https://www.novelupdates.com/series/the-tang-dynastys-female-forensic-doctor/ and https://www.novelupdates.com/series/thousand-face-demonic-concubine/ These are all favourites of mine. Thousand Face Demonic Concubine is very graphically violent and gory in some places, not recommended for reading while eating. My top recommendation would be A Record of Washed Grievances. It is also about a forensic doctor rather than a medical doctor. Good luck!!
Which ones??? Never mind I worked it out. GDBBM and Good for Nothing 7th Young Miss have the same author if anyone else was confused.
I concur that Genius Doctor Black Belly Miss and Divine Doctor Daughter of the First Wife are two of the best reads in this genre out there. GDBBM: - Female lead is cold, calculating, always in control, though relatively dense when it comes to romance (slow romance) - More cultivation and power levels - Grand and ruthless face slapping (and satisfyingly gory executions of the most heinous villains ever) - Proficient in both medical treatment and poisons - About 2/3 translated, translator has quick and reliable release schedule DDDFW: - Female lead is generally in control and calculates steps ahead of opponents, but not invincible - More court intrigue/politics - Slow takedown of enemies, doesn't slaughter enemies quickly enough, villains keep coming back to harass her - Mostly medical treatment only, though she does have medicine (thanks to self-replenishing mobile modern pharmacy) to treat poison - About 1/3 translated, translator is fairly quick with the long chapters, bonus chapters come often with sponsor help
Thanks all for the recommendations. I'll start with Genius Doctor Black Belly Miss first, and put Kusuriya, Tang Dynasty, and Washed Grievances on the waitlist in case I find GDBBM too repetitive.

One of the best novel I know in term of plot is Princess Medical Doctor. The ML is a bastard tho It's just one of the few novels with a real plot and not continuous face slapping and dumb female characters wanting to kill the Mc for no reasons.
