The Good Doctor (Seasons 1–7)

The Good Doctor (2017) is an ABC medical drama you can watch online on iFILM. Freddie Highmore plays Dr. Shaun Murphy, a young surgical resident with autism and savant syndrome: he can map a patient's body with near-photographic recall, yet a casual conversation in the break room can stop him cold.

Shaun joins the surgical unit at San Jose St. Bonaventure Hospital, where his unconventional approach saves patients that standard protocols would lose. Dr. Aaron Glassman, played by Richard Schiff, pushed hard for Shaun's hire — and keeps fighting for him as skeptical colleagues question whether someone who struggles with eye contact belongs in a high-pressure OR. Seven seasons and 126 episodes later, the series wrapped in 2024 as one of ABC's most-watched dramas of its era.

What separates the show from the crowded medical-drama field is its commitment to depicting Shaun's inner world rather than treating the diagnosis as a quirky gimmick — the writers consulted extensively with autism specialists. Stream every season of The Good Doctor online on iFILM.
