Dr. William Rush used to be an emergency room doctor, but an impulsive decision cost him his career, and he now works out of his office -- a vintage Mercedes -- as a medical "fixer." He travels around Los Angeles to provide discreet medical care to elite residents, some of whom may not have stellar reputations. The doctor isn't immune to the ugliness that he encounters, but devoted assistant Eve tries to keep him under control and get him to clean up his act. He is not exactly anxious to change his lifestyle, however, especially after the return of former flame Sarah.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

A competent but bland medical drama, Rush fails to add anything new to an overly familiar concept.

You have an idea what to expect from Rush, the latest medical drama from cable kings USA. And yet the undeniable familiarity is manageable because of solid casting, strong production values, and an entertaining premise. Go to Full Review
Allison Keene The Hollywood Reporter 07/17/2014
While Rush is very much in USA's wheelhouse, bearing passing resemblance tonally (that is, quick and breezy) to series like Royal Pains and Burn Notice, it doesn't come together as well as some of the network's more memorable series. Go to Full Review
Mary McNamara Los Angeles Times 07/17/2014
So kind of like House crossed with Ray Donovan without the humor, pathos and terrific acting of both those shows. Go to Full Review

Does the world need another show about a bad boy physician who can heal everyone but himself? No. Does the world need another show about a bad boy physician played by Tom Ellis who can heal everyone but himself? It turns out the answer is yes. Go to Full Review
Matt Roush TV Guide 07/17/2014
Like House without heart, Rush wallows in the shallow antiheroics of its title character, a predictable train wreck of a gifted doctor (first in his Harvard class) whose self-destructively addictive tendencies have forced him off the grid in Los Angeles. Go to Full Review
Cory Barker TV.com 07/17/2014
There's really nothing wrong with Rush; it's just bland, with some needless attempts to seem darker. Go to Full Review
