‘New Amsterdam’ TV series inspired by real-life doctor

I’ve been loving the new medical drama New Amsterdam starring Ryan Eggold (The Blacklist). I didn’t realize the series, and many of the events portrayed, are based on the experiences of Dr. Eric Manheimer, the real-life medical supervisor of New York’s Bellevue Hospital from 1997 to 2012.
