Doctor X

Freelance surgeon Dr. Daimon Michiko struts into a University hospital, is mistaken by the administrator for a sleazy Roppongi bar hostess, and takes on the most difficult case. Displaying an independent air gained from hard won experience in third world clinics and hospitals, Dr. Daimon refuses to do anything that doesn't require a doctor's license, from secretarial duty to golf games and leaves work promptly at 5 p.m. As she blows past the institution's cliques and hierarchy, the staff becomes infuriated as patients are cured one after the other. Her representative, Dr. Jonouchi Hiromi, who may be the real (failed)"Doctor X," submits an exorbitant bill and a melon to the institution, which usually leads to a senior staff shakeup. In between surgeries, Dr. Daimon rests at Dr. Jonouchi's physician's exchange, losing game after game of Mah Jong.

Most enjoyable J Drama for me. Filled with comedy, love and friendship. Love all the cast and their unique characters. Must watch!!

Japanese drama with some touches of comedy about a brilliant female freelance surgeon who as the introductory narration explains, hates authority, groups, and constraints. She is not a very sympathetic character. But as someone asks earlier on, if you had to have surgery performed on you, would you prefer someone who knew what they were doing, or someone with the right things to say. The series gives what I assume is a true insight into the political infighting, and fight for power that goes on in large city hospitals. It also exposes the incompetence of some doctors, and such things as gratuities, and patients with the pull being given priority over others. To me though the real heroine of the series is not Ryoko Yonekura as the lead character, but Yuki Uchida as another female doctor.

This is a good series much better than the Korean Drama out nice to have a mature adult, for a change, season 1-4 were fantastic but season 5 is a let down, getting stupid

Everything is great about this show, i mean evergthing. Kinda obsessed with it !! Hoping for more seasons to come. All characters played great role, The role for Dr daimon is unbelievable and definately it should be coz of handling the lead role, but the other people also created a very good scene, which makes to enjoy the whole show, Emotional / happiness is there in it. And definately it gives some kind of vibe which touches the heart.
