New York : Au cœur de l'urgence

It's a good documentary series, but the title is very misleading.

Without spoiling the series itself, i can say that it doesn't follow nearly as much emergencies as you would think. It's a follow up to the Lenox hill series on Netflix, with most doctors present here too. It has some emergency scenes but it mostly shows pre planed surgeries and the patients.

Don't get me wrong the series is absolutely great, although it does try to shove a bit of gun propaganda down your throat, but i can look past that. It shows a very tiny bit of reality for these people, mostly the best parts, and its incredible to watch and the fact that you get to experience just a small bit of their life is worth it alone. I recommend this series, but, it's not what the title suggests.

This is a masterful series about hospital and related workers including ambulance medics, doctors, nurses and everyone else taking care of emergency patients in New York.

These are the real celebrities who should be lauded not ignorant overpaid footballers or drugged up so called movie stars etc.

The series gives an intense look into the lives and work of personnel in the front line of saving our lives.

I was engrossed by the first 4 or 5 episodes and i only skimmed over the remaining parts as I try to avoid hospitals and recently had some emergency treatment, so I do not like being reminded of what it is like being a patient!

The highlight is the birth of children especially the one involving Caesarian delivery. Will bring people to tears of joy!

Those not in the USA like myself may be puzzled though due to the fact for years we have heard stories about the high cost of medical care in the States; so how is all this work paid for and by whom?

No answers given anywhere...

Despite that a high rating is deserved=

8/10.

Okay - this is GOOD!!! Once you start watching - you can't stop! Every episode has something special - and they all have heart! It's really very good. I was surprised! And after that - I don't know what else to add - but it's a great series - big thumbs up! Again - I think the best part is there is just something rich and amazing in each and every episode - something will touch you. So now again - Okay - this is GOOD!!!

I didn't realize when I started this show that I would be finishing it the same day. I couldn't stop watching, it was fascinating and full of heart. I also figured it'd be sad but I wasn't aware that I'd be reaching for the tissues the whole time. Look, I know not every hospital is perfect and watching this might only show the best side of EMS and hospital frontliners. But I truly believe this docuseries does a great job at unveiling the heart and passion of why these frontline medical workers chose this career path. And the patients and patients' families are as real as it gets. Great show. Highly recommend, especially l if you want to spend a full day crying.

Wonderful documentary which makes you feel humble and grateful.

It is engaging to watch doctors, nurses and paramedics do their incredible jobs and try to combine it with their family lifes. Some very emotional moments and some terrifying insights (nr. 1 cause of death for juveniles? Gun related incidents!!!).

The makers of this documentary have the gift to connect the visitor with all people in it, which makes it gripping and hard to resist.

Some events brings you to the edge of your seat. The main characters are nothing less than heroes working in the background most of their lives Filming them means putting them in a well deserved spotlight.

Well done and very much worth watching...
