"Untold Stories of the E.R." is a fast-paced medical series that blends re-enactments of real emergency room cases with comments by the actual physicians and nurses involved in the procedures. Often the patients give first-person accounts as well, and some even play themselves during the re-enactments.

Dr. Heilbron receives a man whose small intestines have burst from his abdomen; a man is shot in a hunting accident; a man crashes his car into the hospital claiming that someone shot him.

A three-month-old baby loses consciousness for no apparent reason; a patient complaining of stomach cramps is pregnant.

A man is brought into the ER with what looks like a minor laceration to his upper eyelid; crisis breaks out in the ER when a depressed man walks in, pulls out a gun and takes a doctor hostage.

A car packed with teenage girls crashes through a chain link fence; a fence pole shoots through the windshield into the chest of the driver and into the thigh of a girl in the back seat.
