Episode Synopsis

It's February twenty-sixth, and on this day in 1967… Elvis Presley delayed his trip to Los Angeles due to painful saddle sores, prompting a house call from Dr. George Nichopoulos at the ranch. The doctor not only treated Elvis and relayed the situation to Colonel Parker, but this visit also marked the beginning of a significant and long-lasting relationship. Dr. Nick would go on to become Elvis’s personal physician and a near-constant presence in his life for the next decade.
