Season 1 Review:
It is a singular piece of work about people, their work and the place in which those people do that work. Not surprisingly, perhaps, it is the people who make the difference, in every aspect of the story being told. ...

What’s so striking about “Lenox Hill,” Netflix’s new documentary series and among the best shows released so far this year, is the way it shows the excitement and the stress of the utterly quotidian. ... “Lenox Hill” achieves a kind of greatness. With an openhearted curiosity about its subjects and a patient, clear eye, the series comes to no conclusions about the way we administer medical care now, but leaves its viewer with ample information to draw his or her own.

The show is structured to make you invest in the men as doctors, while our main concerns about Amanda and Mirtha inevitably revolve around their pregnancies (and resolve to work around them). ... I'm fairly sure that for the directors, the contrasts is intentional, and they'd characterize it as reflecting a specific professional gender divide rather than reinforcing it. The effect is nevertheless limiting and limited.
