The drama series will revolve around the young surgeon who leaves the peaceful countryside to a join the surgical team in the big city at St. Bonaventure Hospital; in the pediatric surgical wing.
Due to his Savant Syndrome and inability to “fit in”; he uses his extraordinary medical knowledge to prove himself to the people he works with and the patients he is determined to save.
The Good Doctor spoilers have divulged that Freddie Highmore’s character will have come from a troubled upbringing, but has survived to become an incredible surgeon; even though he is emotionless, people will be amazed with his brilliance and gut instinct on everything medical. He will work along side his mentor Dr. Ira Glassman, at this time we do not know who will be playing the role.
This will be the first role for Freddie Highmore on TV after Bates Motel, where currently they are in their final season. Where ironically he plays the role of a troubled young man, who doesn’t associate well with others and has a strangely, obsessive relationship with his mother.

This final season is going to be one of the toughest ones to watch, as fans know its time to say goodbye to many, if not all, of the characters we have grown to love these past five years.
Freddie Highmore has proven he can portray almost anyone and has the incredible ability to transform into any character. We can only hope that ABC’s The Good Doctor will be given the green light; and give fans of Bates Motel the chance to follow Freddie Highmore on the new series.
