This from NBC:
ABOUT THE SHOW
Loosely inspired by the real life and achievements of Dr. Kathy Magliato, this unique character-driven medical drama follows Dr. Alex Panttiere (Melissa George, "The Slap"), an outspoken world-renowned heart transplant surgeon and one of the few women in her field. Stubborn and fearless, Alex always operates on her own terms. She revels in a racy personal life that's a full-time job in itself, manages the daily demands of skeptical faculty and dutiful interns, and pushes the boundaries of medical science to impressive new heights.

The cast includes Melissa George, Dave Annable, Don Hany, Shelley Conn, D.L. Hughley, Jamie Kennedy, Maya Erskine, JLouis Mills and Joshua Leonard.
Jill Gordon serves as writer and executive producer. Amy Brenneman, Brad Silberling and Director Robbie Duncan McNeill executive produce, while Susan Carlson, Eric Carlson, Kelly Meyer and Dr. Kathy Magliato serve as co-executive producers. "Heartbeat" is produced by Universal Television.

I really enjoy this show as well. I think I've seen three episodes now and liked them all. I think it's fantastic that Alex and her ex-husband parent their sons as well as they do and that it's no big deal that he's gay. Their characters are friends and loving to one another and hold no malice at all. I love this family. I could do without the McDreamy vs McSteamy type thing they have going on at the hospital (I'm all about McDreamy...he's adorable with his salt 'n pepper hair and quick wit.) but the show is pretty darn good.
