There are clearly many, many things wrong with the US health system. But there's no question that country is also home to some remarkable health professionals and this deceptively simple documentary provides a terrific showcase for four of them. Go to Full Review

The show isn't as comprehensive in its scope as it might be intending at points, but there's still plenty of fertile storytelling ground where it does focus its attention. Go to Full Review

Not everything has a happy outcome, but the series is startlingly candid, especially about procedures and choices. Not everyone makes the decision you expect. Go to Full Review

Gabriel 11/04/2022 One of the best medical series I've ever seen, a delightful experience. I remember watching Lenox Hill while studying to get into college and already trying to decide either to the medical field or not, and this series showed me that this is really my dream. It is a realistic experience that shows you that doctors aren't gods, but human beings with problems, dreams, requests and have their own lives, doing their best every day to save as many people as possible. See more 10/04/2021 I'm responding to the behavior of a physician in episode 7 of season 1. She judges a young man with sickle cell disease who recently injured his knee to be a drug abuser. She assumes him to be abusing opiates because he had a prescription for #30 Percocet 10 days previously: a prescription for 30 Percocet over 10 days is 3 pills per day. This is an appropriate (or arguably inadequate) dose for chronic pain which by definition this young man suffers from. As a pharmacists, I hate to watch clinicians judge patients unfairly. I have no idea what this young truly went through, but I believe he may have been judged unfairly. See more 03/25/2021 Real doctors, real heroes. See more bella h 01/25/2021 This show is absolutely brilliant and I really hope another season/s are made. It was a very real and honest portrayal of a Hospital.
