The Good Karma Hospital
Created by Dan Sefton
On ITV1
A warm, character-driven medical drama centered on a scrappy community hospital in India, balancing workplace challenges with genuine human connection and modest hope.
The story of British-Asian junior doctor Ruby Walker who arrives at the run-down Good Karma Hospital to join a dedicated team of over-worked medics. Run by a gloriously eccentric Englishwoman, Lydia Fonseca, this under-funded but creatively resourceful cottage hospital is the beating heart of the local community. It’s much more than just a medical outpost - it’s a home.
