Holmwood

Dr. Holmwood practices medicine among the acquaintances of Jonathan Harker and Mina Murray. Mina names him first among eligible bachelors in her teasing letter to Jonathan, calling him very handsome and pairing him with mutual friends Reggie and Barnaby. He embodies the romantic competition Mina invokes to test Jonathan's devotion during his absence, marking him as a prominent figure in their social world whose mere mention stirs jealousy.
