The serial takes us through the fates of the protagonists, from all angles of view connected with the Orthopaedic Department of a district hospital. We will get to know the doctors, nurses, their patients, the patients’ families and friends. A young doctor Alžběta (Elisabeth) Čeňková comes to join the orthopaedic team led by outstanding surgeon, Senior Consultant doctor Sova senior. Her colleagues will include astute doctor Štrosmajer, womanizer doctor Blažej and not-to-competent, but all the more self-assured doctor Cvach. We will see their professional successes as well as private failures, and find that even a muchsought-after surgeon has his joys and worries.
