On the way to begin his surgical residency at San Jose St. Bonaventure Hospital, Dr. Shaun Murphy witnesses an airport sign fall and shatter glass onto a young boy.

Dr. Neil Melendez is doing rounds with Dr. Claire Browne and Dr. Jared Kalu. Melendez calls out Shaun for arriving late on his first full day. A middle aged woman is brought into the ER with abdominal pain. Shaun immediately diagnoses a malignant tumor. As punishment for lateness, Shaun is assigned 'scut work,' where his attention to detail gets him in trouble. After rechecking a discharged young girl's test results, Shaun races to her home, annoying her parents over the late hour but eventually saving the girl's life. Additionally, Shaun's idea saves the cancer patient's life, but Jared presents the idea as his own and takes all of the credit.

During this, Claire learns to communicate with Shaun, bonding with him in the process. Meanwhile, at St. Bonaventure, Chuck, the recipient of the liver, is discovered to have alcohol in his system, a development that could void his transplant eligibility. Chuck later confesses he had one drink at his daughter's graduation. In order to protect its reputation and ability to supply transplants to future patients, the hospital denies Chuck the liver. Shaun and Claire arrive back, having kept the liver viable, only to learn that it is to be taken to a patient at another hospital. Elsewhere, Shaun meets Lea, a female neighbor at his apartment complex.

Meanwhile, Shaun and Claire are assigned a patient, Olivia, who has a boil in her genital area. However, when doctors attempt to drain it, a fibroid tumor is found to be wrapped around a nerve.

Shaun attempts to find another diagnosis and save Evan, earning him the scorn of his colleagues. Evan's terminal cancer diagnosis is ultimately confirmed with the revelation that it has metastasized into his chest cavity. However, Evan reveals that he has secretly known the truth for a long time and accepts his situation, but is thankful for Shaun's attempts to help him. Meanwhile, the other members of the team try to diagnose an older man, brought in by his estranged son, with a severe allergy causing him to convulse violently.

Shaun and the rest of the residents are working the graveyard shift when numerous casualties from a wedding bus crash arrive. Among the victims is a woman with severe visible burns on whom Jared tries an experimental procedure and a young man with a severely damaged leg. Tensions arise between the patient's parents and fiancée over the best choice for treatment; his parents want to amputate the leg, but his fiancée is in favor of an experimental bone-replacement procedure. Due to Jessica filing an injunction, a judge is left to make the decision and, after hearing all sides, goes with the bone-replacement. Melendez and Shaun are able to save the man's leg and, though he will have a long recovery, he is expected to be fine. After treating a patient, Claire realizes that a woman has been left behind at the crash site.

After Liam voices his support for Shaun doing the surgery, his parents allow it. Melendez allows Shaun to take a more active role in the surgery and Shaun saves Liam's life during a dangerous part of it. In the aftermath, Shaun helps Liam's parents to see how their overbearing and overprotective nature towards their son led to him getting sick in the first place. As a result, Liam's parents start asking Liam for his opinion on things rather than unilaterally making decisions for him. On Glassman's directive, Claire continues with therapy sessions in order to curb her guilt over inadvertently causing the death of a patient. Jared treats a 73-year-old man with severe chest pains who needs urgent medical attention and a pacemaker, but the patient states his desire is to die.

During surgery, Lim questions Claire's ability to not let her emotions get the better of her because of a racist patient, the shooter in the robbery.

Complications develop and the operation to separate them, planned for six months after the kidney surgery, must be done immediately.

A former 15 year veteran cop-turned-doctor, Alex Park, is skeptical of the convict, Boris', motives. Allegra talks to Dr. Andrews about a young wealthy donor, Aidan Coulter, but Andrews says being involved with him might give people the wrong idea that she used sex to solicit donations.

1717"Smile"Bill D'EliaDavid Hoselton & Karen StruckMarch 19, 2018 (2018-03-19)9.03[17]
Shaun and Alex treat teenaged Gretchen's Möbius syndrome, enabling her to smile; Andrews persuades an insurance executive to cover the surgery. After Gretchen fails to wake up, it is believed that she has become brain dead, but Park realizes that a rare condition is causing her to remain under anesthesia and she recovers. Morgan and Claire's patient, "Lucy Callard," is actually an identity thief who let her insurance lapse to pay her son's college tuition and failed to fill her post-operative antibiotic prescription due to fear of discovery, resulting in a post-op infection. Morgan convinces the real Lucy Callard, a painkiller addict, to enter rehab; Claire gains the trust of the imposter, Beatrice, who dies after her infection turns into sepsis that fails to respond to treatment. Jared romantically pursues his burn-victim patient, Celez, after she completes her treatment; he is also offered a job in Denver. Kenny takes advantage of Shaun.

Glassman tells Shaun about his inoperable glioma and that he has 18 months left to live. He accepts his death, but agrees to additional imaging for Shaun's sake; this yields a worse prognosis of four months to live. Glassman takes Shaun to a park his late daughter loved so they can enjoy the time Glassman has left. Shaun determines how a minimally invasive biopsy could be performed, which later proves that Glassman's cancer is operable and, though it'd be a long road to recovery, he'll most likely survive. A patient, Caden, suffers complications after treatment for a fraternity hazing injury. Jared and Alex question Caden's friend, but Jared is put off by Alex's distrustful nature. Shaun determines that he erred in clamping Caden's artery, offering to take full responsibility for it. He proposes a risky procedure as a fix and Melendez decides they should perform it together. Caden survives and Melendez invites the team out for drinks, which Morgan finds perverse; Melendez hopes a doctor supports her when she inevitably kills a patient. Shaun decides to admit his mistake to Andrews, though Glassman's position would be at stake; Glassman leaves the decision up to Shaun and accompanies him to meet with Andrews.

Production[edit]

In May 2014, CBS Television Studios began development on an American remake of the hit South Korean medical drama Good Doctor with Daniel Dae Kim as producer. Kim explained the appeal of adapting the series as "something that can fit into a recognizable world with a breadth of characters that can be explored in the long run".[19] The story of an autistic pediatric surgeon was to be set in Boston, and projected to air in August 2015,[20][21] but CBS did not pick up the project, and it moved to Sony Pictures Television with a put pilot commitment from ABC in October 2016. The series was developed by David Shore who is credited as executive producer alongside Kim, Sebastian Lee and David Kim.[22] ABC officially ordered the series to pilot in January 2017.[23]

On May 11, 2017, ABC ordered to series as a co-production with Sony Pictures Television and ABC Studios,[24] and it was officially picked up for a season of 18 episodes on October 3, 2017.[25]
