Diagnosis

I lack any critiques for this series, except perhaps that there are only seven episodes! I'm invested in these cases, and want to know how they end up; the stories are told in a beautifully real way although it allows you to view the intricacies and struggles in each situacion. Inspiring doctor as well, renewed my passion for my studies (healthcare, although a different field) with each episode that I viewed; truly a beautiful role model and such an excellent concept. Very well done.

I just finished binge watching this over two days. Fascinating stuff. It presents both the best and the worst of medicine, and how serendipity and chance can mean the difference between life and death.

Some of the cases are fascinating, and the presentation is fine. There is some interesting human drama to observe in the way patients and family members behave through the process as well. I think my primary issue with the storytelling is just that they haven't allowed enough time to elapse to actually assess whether significant progress was made. That left almost all the cases with a feeling that nothing had really been resolved other than more tests to arrive at no firm diagnosis Given the alleged concept of the show, it doesn't seem like that should have been the case. Time is often the friend of a great documentary, and more time to follow up on some of the cases likely would have made this more interesting.

An interesting project, but an overstretched tv-show. Each episode could have been 20-30 min shorter. The drama is prolonged to the extent that it becomes boring.

Amazing series not only delving into the world of medicine and the raw emotions and struggles of the people inflicted with rare and unusual conditions. All the episodes were incredible but episodes 2 and 4 (dealing with young children), had me in tears. A must see on Netflix.
