In real time, six years. In TV time, three years. Since the producers wanted to make the show correspond with the residencies of many of the young doctors, they chose to make it span three years instead of six years, which is a possible but less common time span for a residency. The first episode begins with the start of their residency and the last episode concludes with the end of their residency. On one episode, Fiscus' mother jokes that "Wayne has been at the hospital for three years, although it seems more like six."
