New Amsterdam

About the Show

Medical director Dr. Max Goodwin is committed to solve systemic health care issues at the hospital. Add in the grieving of his wife's death, his responsibilities as a single father and his cancer still lingering in the rear-view mirror, everyone around Max must wonder how long he can sustain this impossible load. But "How can I help?" is not just Max's catchphrase, it's his reason for living. As long as he's helping others, Max is able to find hope in the most hopeless of places.

While navigating their own personal journeys – Sharpe's career shifts, Bloom's reuniting with her mother, Reynolds' departure, Frome's struggle with body image and Kapoor's upcoming grandchild – the doctors also strive to play out Max's "How can I help?" mantra.

"New Amsterdam" is inspired by Dr. Eric Manheimer's memoir "Twelve Patients: Life and Death at Bellevue Hospital" and his 15 years as medical director at the hospital.

The cast includes Ryan Eggold, Janet Montgomery, Freema Agyeman and Jocko Sims, with Tyler Labine and Anupam Kher.

David Schulner and Peter Horton executive produce along with Michael Slovis, David Foster, Aaron Ginsburg and Shaun Cassidy. "New Amsterdam" is produced by Universal Television, Pico Creek Productions and Mount Moriah.
