  • The Real Deal: A big chunk of the exterior shots, like when Dr. Choi is strolling in with his coffee looking all mysterious and stuff, are actually filmed at Rush University Medical Center. So, if you ever find yourself in Chicago and spot Dr. Choi ordering a latte, don't freak out. It's just a Tuesday.
  • The Fake But Fabulous: Most of the interior scenes, you know, the ones with all the drama and the near-death experiences, are filmed at Cinespace Film Studios. They've got these incredible sets built to look exactly like a hospital. It's like stepping into a real-life TV show!

Those poor souls have to pretend to be patients, family members, and random passersby. I'm not sure what's harder: being a doctor or being a fake patient.
