Drama. Thriller Dr. Martin Blake, who has spent his life looking for respect, meets an 18-year-old patient named Diane, suffering from a kidney infection, and gets a much-needed boost of self-esteem. However, when her health starts improving, Martin fears losing her, so he begins tampering with her treatment, keeping Diane sick and in the hospital right next to him.

	Media	Author	Review
		Ronnie Scheib Variety	"Daly deftly creates a disturbing, Chabrol-like tension that plays on immediate identification with the handsome medico's lonely, shy vulnerability"
		Stephen Holden The New York Times	Martin remains a cipher in a movie that never fulfills its potential as melodrama"
		Simon Abrams Slant	"'The Good Doctor' isn't a ponderous bore because Blake isn't a strictly good or bad character: It sucks because he isn't even a compelling character"
