I must say "You're actually plan B" really nailed it!!
The story really makes me rethink the meaning of life and work. It has inspired careers far beyond doctor. If you feel lost in life/career, take a break just watch this series.

I really like their motive of work, not because of money, reputation etc., but pure heart of rescue (romantic XD). This means that one must be passionate about the profession, and this is rare in reality. I was inspired to become like them although my career wasn't doctor, that why I said it inspiration is beyond being a doctor. I really encourage those who lost their way to finding a meaning in job or life to watch the series. You don't have time you can just watch season 3 alone, which in my opinion was the best and they don't really connect much to previous (It would be best if you could watch all 3 seasons to get more involved in the story).
