Answer:

The doctor and he talked for quite some time.

Step-by-step explanation:

The above sentence is a compound sentence because it has 2 subjects.

The doctor and the male person (with the doctor).

The doctor is noun corresponding to He, a personal pronoun (subject).

Since both speakers are linked by the conjunction and:

1.they both should carry the same weight in the sentence - He (a personal pronoun subject)

2.are subjects of the sentence because they both produce an action - Talk.

3.both speakers agree with the verb Talk.

written simply: They (the doctor and he/ he and the doctor) talked for some time.
