Dr. Devon Pravesh

 Dr.Devon Pravesh is one of the main characters in the medical drama series The Resident. He was introduced as an intern under the mentorship of Dr.Conrad Hawkins. It would be frustrating how his character handled certain situations he would come off as stubborn and judgmental. Specifically in Season 3 Episode 3 he disagreed how Conrad went about treating a patient. The patient was a convicted murderer who had someone in hostage. So, after the murderer surgery was successful Conrad withheld morphine from the murderer to get answers out of him. Devon went on to say Conrad tourtured the man and he even asked to be assigned to a new resident regarding Conrad's treatment. Fans even expressed their frustration with him. A reddit user commented "I used to really like Devon, but he is really starting to be annoying w his attitude regarding Conrad's treatment of the murderer" (Reddit). It was frustrating because Devon was fine with crossing boundaries if it benefited him personally but if it were others he considered it completely unacceptable. I say this because in that situation Conrad saved both the murderer and the hostage lives but earlier on in season 2, Devon wanted to get information about the character Julian Booth whereabouts because she ghosted him. He found out that a doctor in the hospital that had recently been shot had the answers so he wanted to lighten the doctor's sedation to get answers about her. It is upsetting because it's okay if it's benefitting him but it's not when Conrad is saving a life. He is such a hypocrite.

Dr. Conrad Hawkins

Conrad Hawkins is a skilled doctor in the medical drama series The Resident. I can honestly say that he is one of my favorites. He is a doctor who puts his patients first even if it means breaking hospital rules. For example, he often challenges hospital administrators and insurance companies when they care more about money than saving lives. In season one episode two his patient Micah has severe heart issues and has been waiting for a heart transplant for over 2 years. Micah ends up collapsing and Conrad realizes the situation is critical. A heart then eventually becomes available for Micah making him next in line for a transplant. However, the congressman came in with heart failure whereas he was a match for the heart too. The Chief of Surgery argued that the congressman case was more severe so he should get the heart. It was obvious that Micah deserved the heart because he were waiting for so long plus he was much younger. So, to ensure Micah qualifies for the surgery Conrad swaps t...

Dr. Randolph Bell

 Dr. Randolph Bell is the  CEO and  Chief of Surgery of Chastain Park Memorial Hospital in the medical drama series The Resident. In the first season Dr.Bell is a skilled surgeon who developed hand tremors whereas it eventually led to surgical errors. To protect his reputation he manipulates situations and covers up his mistakes, prioritizing his status over patient safety. This makes him seem selfish and more focused on his career. However, as the series goes on Dr.Bell changes a lot. He becomes more focused on both the hospital and the patients. He also becomes more honest and works to regain the trust of those around him. An example of Dr. Bell’s growth is how he handles the fallout from his earlier mistakes. In the first season as I mentioned Dr. Bell covers up his surgical errors caused by his hand tremor. He even blamed others to protect his reputation. This shows his selfishness and lack of accountability. In later seasons after his diagnosis Dr. Bell begins taking...
