Make an appointment with a medical clinic that's off the grid
In this UK remake of gripping Danish series Valkyrien, Mark Strong plays Daniel Milton, a surgeon at the top of his game -- until personal tragedy shatters his comfortable life.

There, Daniel treats those who can’t -or won’t- seek more legitimate healthcare: criminals, undocumented immigrants, and those who prefer to stay off the books.
