Dr Giles

In the short story The Market Basing Mystery, Dr Giles was the local doctor who examined the body of local resident Walter Protheroe who had been found dead in a locked room at "Leigh House".

Dr Giles was described as "a tall man dressed in sporting tweeds, with a clever, capable face". Japp considered Giles a competent doctor. "Some of these sporting doctors are first-class fellows," he told Hastings and Poirot.
