Lovely little hospital.
This is probably one of the biggest Fabuland sets I have and I have owned it for about 35 years. Amazingly this is the only one of my first 3 sets that I still have the instruction/story book that came with it, although it is very battered, held together with tape and the back page is missing ! However I usually don't need any instructions because I can still build it by memory. For a hospital it doesn't come with a lot. The two beds and visitor chairs had to be built (unlike future Fabuland furniture), and there was also an operating bed, and two chairs and a table on the outdoor roof plus a big umbrella. It also came with a staircase that just balanced next to the building (ie falls over) and a tree that also falls over a lot. Maybe that is what kept the hospital in business - climb a tree or just walk up the stairs - and bam you are in that operating room.
The biggest mystery of this set - and future sets - what is Doctor Dog's first name. Even when he seemed to have retired from fixing broken legs and was working in Catherine Cat's restaurant, he is still called DOCTOR Dog. A big mystery that has been on my mind for over 30 years !
