The Good Doctor Trailer: He Can Do Anything

at .

Shaun Murphy (Highmore), a young surgeon with autism and savant syndrome, relocates from a quiet country life to join a prestigious hospital’s surgical unit.

Alone in the world and unable to personally connect with those around him, Shaun uses his extraordinary medical gifts to save lives and challenge the skepticism of his colleagues.

From an abused childhood to working as a surgeon, all because someone took the time to communicate with him in the way that made sense to Shaun.

From the outside he frightens people, but on the inside he radiates not only his intelligence but something more.

He appears to brighten the world of those around him through his work. 

The chance is there for the taking, if only people will open their eyes and see things differently.

Richard Schiff stars with Highmore and they look like they'll make a brilliant team.

We've already seen what Highmore was able to do with the challenges placed before him with Norman Bates and his mental illness. I have no doubt he'll make the challenges of autism easily as understandable and empathetic.

Is this one you'll want to check out?

ABC Quotes

Aren’t we judged by how we treat people? I don’t mean as doctors. I mean as people. Especially those who don’t have the same advantages that we have. We hire Shaun and we give hope to those people with limitations that those limitations are not what they think they are. That they do have a shot! We hire Shaun and we make this hospital better for it. We hire Shaun and we are better people for it.

Dr. Aaron Glassman

Why were you rude to me when we first met then nicer to me the second time we met and now you want to be my friend? Which time was it that you were pretending?
