Last but not least, A perfectionist whose relentless pursuit of excellence often puts him at odds with others.  Yet this reveals his depth and humanity.

Resident Playbook promises a blend of humor, emotional resonance, and realistic medical storytelling,. It is much like its predecessor “Hospital Playlist.”
