While in Tibet, a medical student named Stephen Strange meets a sickly, apparently mute young man named Wong. He later meets an old man while going to a monastery called "the Garden of Fountains", who asks him why he wants to become a doctor. Later, he hears the young man named Wong start talking after Stephen gives him a watch, hoping he will return later in life. Three years later, at his graduation party, one of Stephen's college professors who believes he would be more than a "medical profession's version of a pimp" is killed in an automobile incident. Three years after that, Stephen is working in plastic surgery in New York but is injured in a skiing accident.[1]
Stephen loses the full ability to use his hands after the accident and starts looking for a surgeon who can fix his hands, but finds no one who can help. [2] Strange meets a member of doctors without borders who he had worked with in Tibet, who explains that Wong is now a specialist "healer" in alternative medicine. Strange returns to Tibet to discover that the village he had volunteered in had been destroyed and Wong had left. While in Tibet, Strange meets a man who knew Wong and receives Wongs address in New York. Strange returns to New York to meet with Wong.
