A fish-out-of-water medical comedy-drama where a brilliant but abrasive surgeon learns small-town medicine and human connection in a picturesque coastal setting.

Martin Best is a brilliant surgeon who abruptly leaves his illustrious career in Boston to become the general practitioner in a quaint East Coast fishing village where he spent summers as a child. Unfortunately, Martin's blunt and borderline rude bedside manner rubs the quirky, needy locals the wrong way, and he quickly alienates the town, even though he's all they’ve got.
