House Calls is a 1978 film comedy starring Walter Matthau and Glenda Jackson, directed by Howard Zieff.

The hospital where Charley works is ineptly run by Dr. Amos Willoughby, a senile chief of staff. Typical of the incompetence there is the way a fractured jaw of patient Ann Atkinson is being treated by Willoughby with a primitive contraption.Charley frees her from the device, angering Willoughby for stealing a patient. Charley and his pal Dr. Norman Solomon know something needs to be done about Willoughby, but because the old fart now has a hold on him, Charley agrees to nominate Willoughby for one more term as the hospitals chief. ........
