Movie about a medical student who becomes rich on gold mining in the 19th century

This shares a similar premise with Eureka (1983) which, although I don't recall a medical student, does involve the main character finding a gold mine, getting fabulously rich, and living the last of their days on a Caribbean island.

EDIT

After further digging, I think the film is based on the life (and death) of Harry Oakes.

From the wiki page:

Sir Harry Oakes, 1st Baronet (December 23, 1874 Sangerville, Maine – July 7, 1943 Nassau, Bahamas) was an American-born British Canadian gold mine owner, entrepreneur, investor and philanthropist. He earned his fortune in Canada and moved to the Bahamas in the 1930s for tax purposes. He was murdered in 1943 under notorious circumstances in the Bahamas.

Two more films were made on the subject:

Any Human Heart (2010) a BBC television movie, Passion and Paradise (1989) a Canadian TV movie,
