Synopsis:
A drama about a tight-knit medical group adjacent to a hospital
in San Francisco. At a time when the world of medicine is becoming
more impersonal, the doctors at Presidio Medical Group set bureaucracy
aside and put their patients first, forming trusting, long-term
relationships.
They are Dr.
Harriet Lanning (Danner), a veteran ob/gyn who still loves getting
up in the middle of the night to deliver babies; Dr. Rae Brennan
(Delany), an oncologist with a passionate, adventurous side; Dr.
Letty Jordan (Smith), a headstrong, in-your-face cardiologist;
Dr. Jackie Colette (Alexander), a brash young plastic surgeon;
Dr. Jules Keating (Nicholson), a pediatrician who is confident
and fiercely independent; Dr. Nicholas Kokoris (Fehr), a surgeon
who has just moved to San Francisco from Greece to join Presidio
Med, and, to hopefully continue an affair with one of the group's
married physicians; and Dr. Ben Slingerland, a handsome renegade
internist with a tendency to bend the rules.
Although
their personal beliefs, unique experiences and medical specialties
are sometimes at odds, each of these professionals is committed
to going beyond theexamining table and connecting on a more personal
level in support of their patients.
