The Knick

Set in the heart of New York City in 1900, “The Knick” revolves around the Knickerbocker Hospital, where doctors and nurses are on the cutting edge of medical innovations amid daunting mortality rates and the lack of antibiotics. The central figure, John Thackery, is a talented surgeon who is pioneering revolutionary techniques in medicine while battling a hidden cocaine addiction. He guides a team of physicians, including his mentee Dr. Everett Gallinger, the youthful Dr. Bertie Chickering Jr., and Dr. Algernon Edwards, an up-and-coming surgeon recently assigned to him. The vibrant ensemble at the hospital features Cornelia Robertson, the daughter of the institution’s patron, Captain August Robertson; the gruff ambulance driver Tom Cleary; Lucy Elkins, a fresh nurse from the countryside; the unscrupulous hospital administrator Herman Barrow; and Sister Harriet, a nun who boldly speaks her mind.
