Alex Reid is a whip-smart general surgeon. When she came to Hope Zion, Alex fell under the wing of Charlie Harris, Hope Zee's charismatic and charming Chief of Surgery. Charlie became Alex's mentor. He recognized her strengths – not only her preternatural ability as a surgeon, but also her empathetic way with patients and her fundamental decency.
Saving Hope
In SAVING HOPE, when charismatic Chief of Surgery Charlie Harris (Shanks) at Toronto’s Hope-Zion Hospital ends up in a coma, he leaves the hospital in chaos – and his fiancée and fellow surgeon, Alex Reid (Durance), in a state of shock. Along with newly-arrived star surgeon, Joel Goran (Daniel Gillies, THE VAMPIRE DIARIES), Alex races to save Harris' life. As the action unfolds, comatose Dr. Harris wanders the halls of Hope-Zee in “spirit” form, not sure if he's a ghost or a figment of his own imagination. Reid, along with her fellow doctors, press on to save his life and those of their other patients, as they deal with the complicated and courageous decisions that are made in their daily struggle to keep hope alive.
