First Look! NBC’s New Medical Drama 'Heartbeat'
“Extra” has a first look at the new NBC medical drama “Heartbeat” starring Melissa George!
Watch the clip to see George in action as Dr. Alex Panttiere, a world-renowned heart transplant surgeon.
“Heartbeat” is a character-driven medical series that follows the professional and personal life of Dr. Panttiere, who is as cutting-edge and unorthodox in the OR as she is with the two men in her life. Her approach to medicine is without boundaries, as is her approach to everything else in her world.
Between Dr. Panttiere's hectic hospital life, where she is caught between two brilliant but stubborn surgeons (Dave Annable and Don Hany), and her household of two kids and a gay rock star ex-husband (Joshua Leonard), Alex is constantly striving to overcome numerous daily obstacles and be the best mother and doctor possible.
Tune in March 22 at 9 p.m. after “The Voice” for a special preview and catch the premiere episode March 23 at 8 p.m.
