Get a glimpse into the day to day lives of doctor’s life with these medical dramas

 
 
Frontline warriors – a new word added to the everyday lexicon due to the pandemic – have tough tasks at hand. We have watched the adversities faced by cops, media, civic authorities but there are very few shows that go into great details about the professional and personal lives of the medical fraternity. Hectic schedules, lots of challenges, long hours, yet doctors, nurses, ward boys, etc. overcome the obstacles and continue doing what they do best – save lives. As we recognise medical workers are the real superheroes without capes in times of grave crisis, here’s a look at 4 medical dramas that explore different aspects of a modern-day medic.
