    TV. Shows And Movies About Doctors:



    Like medicine inspired song writers they have inspired tv shows writers, movie makers, directors, actors and producers to create shows and movies about hospitals, doctors and their daily lives.

    These tv shows granted a huge and loud success and though most of them were based on the idea of doctors residency and work inside hospitals but each one of them was attractive and unique on it’s own and attracted a wide base of audience who interacted with their favorite doctors in the series. Many of those shows lasted for over a decade and left a huge impact on their audience and admirers as they felt realistic and represented real life in a way or another, even some of the audience were aspired to become doctors as they were deeply connected to these tv shows. They are about 60 shows but we will mention the most successful ones:

    • Grey’s anatomy 2005- present

    • House 2004- 2012

    • E.R 1994-2009

    • Scrubs 2001- 2010

    • Nip- tuck 2003-2010

    • Private practice 2007-2013

    • The Mindy project 2015-2017

    • Night shift 2014-2017

    • Chicago med 2015- 2019

    • Heartbeat 19992-2010

    • A young doctor”s notebook 2012-2013

    • Strong medicine 2000-2006
    Of course we can’t mention all the great movies that were inspired by doctors and found that their lives and medical miracles are full of action, drama and emotions that had to be transferred to the big screen, we can only mention a few Such as:

    • ( the doctor) starring William Hurt in 1991.

    • Doctor Zhivago starring Omar El Sharif in 1965

    • The hospital starring George C Scott in 1971

    • Flat-liners 1990 starring Julia Roberts in 1990

    • Article 99 starring Ray Liotta in 1992

    Do doctors themselves who inspire professionals at various fields of art, care about fashion, tattoos, accessories and interior designs? Do they even have time to watch tv shows that describe their lives ? do they even like to listen to tracks that are about life, sickness and doctors? We can find out about that in the next article.
