In a July 2007 episode of the BBC Birmingham's daytime TV soap opera, Doctors, she played the role of Tilly Ruffell. She was brought back to the series in 2009 in the role of Cherry Malone, a bubbly and gullible nurse who first appeared on 6 April 2009. In November 2009 Abelson had a major storyline, which saw her character's boyfriend, Scott Nielson. die of a drugs overdose. The police thought Cherry was also taking drugs (she was not), with the case being closed due to lack of evidence. The storyline helped Abelson receive a nomination for Best Newcomer & Sexiest Female at The British Soap Awards 2010. Abelson, and the Cherry character, departed Doctors on 19 October 2012.
