More About The Pitt

The Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Hospital or “The Pitt” is a place where emotions run high and ER doctors juggle personal afflictions and face the consequences of workplace politics. At the centre of it all is Dr. Michael “Robby” Rabinavitc, The Pitt’s hardened chief attendant who shows interns a thing or two about saving lives, all while surviving the heartbreak, exhaustion, and the overall craziness of a 15-hour emergency room shift.
