It centers on an idealistic young doctor who begins his first day under the supervision of a tough, brilliant senior resident who pulls the curtain back on all of the good and evil in modern day medicine. Lives may be saved or lost, but expectations will always be shattered. Written by ahmetkozan
Chillingly accurate portrayal of contemporary American medicine - driven by big money more than quality of care, insurance the determining factor for decisions, and with a veil of secrecy to cover up disasters. Quotes the true fact that preventable medical errors are the 3rd leading cause of death in the U.S., after heart disease and cancer. That all makes for great drama, but it's not an exaggeration of the situation with U.S. health care. In addition, the human relationships between the characters, both doctors and patients, are believable. The realistic accuracy of the plots makes this not just another soap opera set in a hospital, but a very compelling drama.
