The Reality of Medical TV… Tears to Smiles

Produced by Morningstar Entertainment for air on the Discovery Health Channel, “Chicago’s Lifeline” is a medical reality television series that was shot on location at The University of Chicago Hospitals.  As field producer for many segments, a combination of compassion and assertiveness was required while following the daily lives of families, patients and doctors…  some were interviewed for the first time after a life threatening disease diagnosis, while others were filled with hope after recovery.
