Looking at biopsy results, the residents find out that she is suffering from leiomyosarcoma, making surgery seemingly impossible.

To Browne 's dismay, Kalu suggests Shaun 's idea to Melendez, getting the credit for the idea. Meanwhile, Shaun 's attention to detail in his scut work gets him into trouble. Instead of releasing patients ready for discharge, Shaun rechecks them and orders additional tests. Upon learning this, Melendez assigns Nurse Freydey as Shaun 's `` boss '' for the day. Later, after rechecking a discharged young girl 's test results, Shaun races to her home. The parents are annoyed that he 's bothering them after midnight and at first refuse to let him in.

'' Ben Travers and Steve Greene for IndieWire called it `` a serious trailer for a serious subject.

Critical response The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reports a 58 % approval rating with an average rating of 5.49 / 10 based on 38 reviews. The website 's consensus reads, `` The Good Doctor 's heavy - handed bedside manner undermines a solid lead performance, but under all the emotionally manipulative gimmickry, there 's still plenty of room to improve. '' Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 53 out of 100 based on 15 critics, indicating `` mixed or average reviews ''. Giving his first impression of the series ' pilot for TVLine, Matt Webb Mitovich stated, `` The Good Doctor boasts great DNA... ( and ) has the potential to be a refreshingly thought - provoking hospital drama, based on the buttons pushed in the pilot alone. '' He enjoyed the `` warm dynamic '' of Schiff and Highmore, while describing Thomas ' character as `` our emotional ' in ' to Shaun 's distinct, distant world ''. He noted that `` it takes a while to build up momentum '', but concluded that `` the very final scene packs quite a punch, as Dr. Murphy unwittingly puts a colleague on notice ''. The New York Times television critic, James Poniewozik, notes in his Critic 's Notebook column, that for the most part the drama is a `` hospital melodrama with whiz - bang medical science, a dash of intra-staff romance and shameless sentimentality. '' Discussing the main characters of Dr. Aaron Glassman ( Richard Schiff ) and Dr. Shaun Murphy ( Freddie Highmore ), however, Poniewozik writes that `` Mr. Schiff is convincing in the role and Mr. Highmore is striking in his. '' Speaking of Freddie Highmore 's Golden Globe nomination on Monday, December 11, 2017, for his role in The Good Doctor, Laura Bradley, writing for Vanity Fair says : ``... Freddie Highmore received the awards recognition that has long and unjustly eluded him... '' Bradley feels that Highmore 's performance has been `` the central key '' to the show 's enormous success and while the show had lukewarm reviews, most critics have praised Highmore 's work.
