The New Doctors was part of The Bold Ones, a rotating series of dramas that also included The Protectors (with Leslie Nielsen), The Lawyers (with Burl Ives) and The Senator (with Hal Holbrook). The New Doctors was the only one of the four series to last for the entire run.

David Hartman was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for portraying Paul Hunter on this show.

Synopsis

Together with his two assistants Dr. Paul Hunter and Dr. Ted Stuart, Dr. David Craig encounters an array of medical and psychosocial issues in his own exclusive clinic. The clinic utilizes then "cutting edge" treatments and is at the forefront of medical research. Medical cases cover a broad spectrum, including organ transplants, mothers with post-partum depression, patients with psychogenic problems, and patients that are difficult to communicate with. Episodes were 60 minutes, and in some cases, Craig becomes involved with patients stricken with rare diseases and unusual circumstances as occurred in later medical dramas such as House and ER.

The closing credits state that "the story, techniques and equipment shown are based on actual developments at the frontiers of medicine."
