What is The Good Doctor about?

The medical procedural drama follows Shaun Murphy (Highmore), a young autistic surgeon who leaves his idyllic country life to join the surgical team at the reputable San Jose St. Bonaventure Hospital. Shaun also has Savant syndrome, making him exceptional in his work. While he is dedicated to using his extraordinary capacities to help people, there are always doubts from those around him due to his condition. 

Throughout the show, he has proven to be a brilliant doctor who is more than capable of saving lives, challenging skepticism. As part of a surgical unit at a prestigious hospital, Shaun’s journey has been a tumultuous one. At times, he is forced to sit on the sidelines when prejudices about his autism shamelessly arise. Some of his ideas are also easily discredited and stolen by others with a selfish agenda.  

Shaun’s dedication and sense of duty to help others take precedence in the end, which is enough for him to keep going. Slowly, he earns the respect and admiration of his patients, colleagues, and superiors. 

In The Good Doctor Season 6, Shaun has come a long way – he married the love of his life, Leah (Paige Spara) and by the end of the sixth season, welcomed a baby boy named Steve Aaron Murphy. The final seventh season will continue Shaun and Leah’s journey as parents while Shaun resumes his work at the hospital. We can also expect that his feud with Dr. Glassman (Richard Schiff) finally reaches a resolution. 

After seven seasons, the series finally bids farewell to its fans, but not before the doctors at San Jose St. Bonaventure solves one of the most important cases of their careers. The Good Doctor is developed by David Shore based on the 2013 South Korean series of the same name by Park Jae-beom.
