Heartbeat (formerly Heartbreaker during production)[1] is an American medical comedy-drama television series based on the real life of Dr. Kathy Magliato, as described in her book Heart Matters. It stars Melissa George as Alex Panttiere, a world-renowned heart-transplant surgeon at the fictional St. Matthew's Hospital in Los Angeles, who struggles to balance her personal and professional life.[2][3][4] The series premiered on March 22, 2016, on NBC.[5] On May 13, 2016, NBC canceled the series after one season.[6]

Plot

Alex Panttiere is a cardio-thoracic surgeon, and a very good one. She has just been appointed to a senior role at a major hospital. While this brings more responsibility, it does not dull her rebelliousness or unconventional methods.
