A New Series Is Born on Discovery Health
DOCU-SERIES DELIVER ME CHRONICLES THE PRACTICE AND PERSONAL LIVES OF THREE
L.A.-BASED OB/GYNS
SILVER SPRING, Md., Jan. 29 -- Complex pregnancies and
high- risk births-these are worries for many parents-to-be, but they are
everyday occurrences for Drs. Alane Park, Yvonne Bohn and Allison Hill.
Discovery Health's new six-part docu-series, DELIVER ME, follows the
careers and lives of these three dynamic women -- best friends who became
partners in a demanding Los Angeles OB/GYN practice. In addition to their
thriving careers, all three are mothers themselves, meaning each must
juggle the pressures of delivering their patients' children with those of
raising their own. Premiering Tuesday, March 4, at 10 PM (ET/PT), DELIVER
ME gives viewers a behind-the-curtain peek at the professional and personal
lives of these doctors, and the patients they treat.
Providing insight into some of the most relevant and dramatic issues
facing pregnant women today, DELIVER ME showcases the work of Drs. Park,
Bohn and Hill as they lend their care, support and expertise to the women
and families who depend on them -- in good times and in bad. In the
premiere one-hour episode, viewers meet patients such as Christia Karp, who
learns that her unborn baby might have Down syndrome, and Ingrid Alamilla,
whose dangerously high blood pressure forces Dr. Park to consider
delivering her baby five weeks preterm. The drama is not reserved for the
patients, however, as single mother Dr. Hill is forced to bring her
children with her on weekend hospital rounds after her ex-husband reveals
he cannot watch them. Later, audiences learn that all the time around
expecting mothers has triggered anxieties for Dr. Bohn over her own ticking
biological clock. The doctors have a particularly emotionally draining day
when a longtime patient begins dilating at just 22 weeks -- too soon for
her baby to survive outside the womb -- just as another patient's pregnancy
is revealed to be ectopic and must be terminated.
Like many women today, the doctors' lives are a study in contrast,
maneuvering between the demands of work and home life. Further blurring the
lines between the two is the fact that all three doctors see themselves in
each of the patients they treat. As all they approach and enter their 40s,
the doctors continue to find their professional and personal lives
intersecting, but through it all, DELIVER ME proves their passion and
unwavering commitment is the gift they share with their families and
patients alike.
DELIVER ME is produced for Discovery Health by Banyan Productions in
association with Eric Schiff Productions. Eric Schiff is executive
producer. Executive producer for Discovery Health is Alon Orstein.
