Dr. Miranda Foster (played by Katherine Moennig), is a surgical fellow who can’t keep up with her father’s excellent reputation as a surgeon and develops a rebellious temperament. Dr. David Lee (played by Daniel Henney) is a surgical resident who has broken more hearts than fixed or replaced them. Ryan Abbott (played by Christopher Henke) is the inexperienced transplant coordinator. Dr. Sophia Jordon (played by Alfre Woodard) is the head of surgery and has no patience for other people who’ve made no sacrifices. Last but not least, Pam Acosta (played by Justina Machado) is Dr. Yablonski’s operating assistant and best friend. Together, they try to save lives on Three Rivers.
