The daily lives of healthcare professionals in a Pittsburgh hospital as they juggle personal crises, workplace politics, and the emotional toll of treating critically ill patients, revealing the resilience required in their noble calling.
During early development, John Wells and Noah Wyle originally envisioned the show as more a direct sequel to their previous hit NBC medical drama "ER," which Wells executive produced, wrote and directed from 1994-2009. Wyle would have reprised his role Dr. John Carter. However, they were unable to secure the rights with original series creator Michael Chiton's estate and thus altered the concept and setting to make it more a spiritual sequel instead.
