"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.

Two gunshot victims have a surprising connection; an unidentified jogger goes into a coma and the ER staff must become detectives to find the woman's family.

Dr. Keller thinks a boy struck by a baseball bat has a concussion, but a CT scan reveals massive brain bleeding and he suffers kidney failure.

A trauma surgeon must squeeze a woman's heart in order for it to pump blood; an emergency room veteran is surprised by a patient.

A circus sword-swallower suffers from a persistent case of hiccups; a mother and daughter mysteriously collapse in the ER; a woman loses control of her legs at her daughter's graduation.
