Follows the personal and professional lives of a group of doctors at Seattle's Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital.

If you loved Grey's Anatomy, the closest series we have are The Resident (2018), Chicago Med (2015) and ER (1994). All three share Grey's Anatomy's contemplative feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is The Knick (2014).

He has to disrupt the status quo and prove he'll stop at nothing to breathe new life into this underfunded and underappreciated hospital, returning it to the glory that put it on the map.
