The medical drama "New Amsterdam" is written by David Schulner and directed by Peter Horton (formerly known as "Bellevue Hospital"). It is produced by Eric Manheimer, the former medical director of Bellevue Hospital in New York City, and adapted from his memoir "Twelve Patients: Life and Death that Bellevue Hospital". "New Amsterdam" tells the story of Max Goodwin (played by Ryan Eggold), a new medical director at the historic public New Amsterdam Hospital. As long as he is determined, he will not allow others to refuse him. He rewrites the interior of the hospital, injecting new vitality and restoring the former honor for this hospital with insufficient manpower, funds and attention... After all, this is a hospital that accepts people from the president to prisoners, and it is also the only hospital that can treat Ebola virus. Other starring actors of "New Amsterdam" include Freema Agyeman, Janet Montgomery, Jocko Sims, Anupam Kher and Tyler Labine.
