Dr. Robert Emlyn Havard (1901–1985) was the physician of C. S. Lewis, his wife Joy Gresham, and J.R.R.
[1] In addition to his medical research papers, Havard authored an appendix for C. S. Lewis's The Problem of Pain as well as a description of Lewis included in Remembering C. S. Lewis: Recollections of Those Who Knew Him and one of J. R. R. Tolkien included in Mythlore.
[1] Lewis invited Havard to join the Oxford-based Inklings because of the literary interests he shared with that group.
Havard was sometimes referred to by the Inklings as the "Useless Quack," mainly because Warren Lewis once called him so upon being irritated by his tardiness, and his brother, Jack, thought it quite amusing at the time and caused the nickname to continue.
