Plot

Since childhood, Max Goodwin dreamed of becoming a doctor. So the death of his sister, who did not survive cancer and died at the age of 8, affected him. As an adult, he studies to become a doctor and tries to approach treatment issues fairly: he does not indulge himself or his colleagues. When Max manages to get to New Amsterdam for a leadership position, he understands that there is a lot of work here.

The hospital has long lost its reputation and is known as one of the worst hospitals in the city. To fix this, he fires most of the staff, cuts staff to a minimum, and then tests the knowledge of everyone else. Angry colleagues try to complain, but in vain. Many leave on their own, because they understand that they do not meet the high requirements of the new leader.

In Season 1, Goodwin was just setting up a well-coordinated work. Once his pregnant wife Georgia went to the hospital, but did not have time to see the child born – the woman died from great blood loss. And although Max was lost, he understood that he needed to be constantly with his daughter. Time goes by very quickly. Forgetting his own needs, Goodwin completely forgot that he too needs treatment.

The season 2 of the series focused on Goodwin’s illness, which nevertheless receded. The doctor has a crush in the form of Helen Sharpe. They met when Goodwin became director of the hospital, and Sharpe drove around in an expensive car in search of sponsors. Considering the girl too smart for social activities, he advised her to work only in a hospital.

Thanks to the professionalism of his remaining colleagues, Goodwin was able to improve his health with experimental treatment for a short time. In Season 3, a sudden outbreak of a new virus hit the hospital. The buildings are overcrowded, people are terrified, including Max. How to proceed? Help people or stay close to his daughter, who also needs protection and care?

In season 4, Goodwin wants to sort out the relationship with Helen to the end, but both are busy and they have no chance of a cloudless future. Having rummaged a little in themselves, both understand that there is still a chance. And in the season 5, the viewers will face a new struggle between the best doctors who divide patients and try to satisfy their own ambitions…
