Saving Hope

lubo4ka Meet Dr. Shahir Hamza (played by Huse Madhavji) A genius neurosurgeon, Shahir's got every skill but people skills. He's like a duck: in emotional situations he waddles, but put him in water – in his case excising an astrocytoma – and watch him swim. Shahir may have mild Aspergers Syndrome, or he may just think on a higher plane that makes regular, non-genius people unrelatable. Either way, the gulf between what he knows and what he can't understand brings him into frequent conflict with co-workers and patients.
