[4] Created as a real-life adjunct to the ABC medical drama Grey's Anatomy,[1] it follows the professional lives of hospital caregivers and their patients.
The fourth episode of the series featured a young boy with a serious, irreversible heart condition.
During a discussion among the boy's doctors about the course of treatment, Dr. James Fackler, a pediatric critical care specialist, was shown saying, "It's my opinion that we should just let the child die."
The series failed to show the importance of hospital positions other than the main physician.
Nurses, social workers and clergy were some of the many people who contributed to the doctor's success.
