British medical student Martin E. Blake transfers to a Southern California hospital to start his residency.

The Good Doctor premiered at the 2011 Tribeca Film Festival[2] and was released on DVD and Blu-ray on December 18, 2012.

[3] Rotten Tomatoes reports that 66% of 29 surveyed critics gave the film a positive review; the average rating was 6.2/10.

[5] Ronnie Scheib of Variety wrote, "Black comedy lurks just below the suspenseful surface, with more than a hint of Lolita-esque absurdity.

"[6] Sura Wood of The Hollywood Reporter called it "a tense, psychosexual film" with a script that takes too few risks and does not explore Blake's origins satisfactorily.
