To me, this is really more about the healthcare workers than only the patients. Some of the reviews complained that this isn't an accurate picture of healthcare overall, and I'd say that it depends. This is very New York centric, so of course you're getting the best, but there are good and less good doctors everywhere. These doctors do honestly seem to be doing a great job handling really high caseloads and it isn't always possible to spend awhile with everyone. Maybe this show is more of a goal than the current reality.
I think that this would be a very different show, for example, if it were filmed in rural North Dakota.
