'The Mob Doctor: The Complete Series' on DVD

FOX's medical drama "The Mob Doctor" -- based on Ron Felber’s novel Il Dottore: The Double Life of a Mafia Doctor -- is now on DVD from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment.

The series introduces Dr. Grace Devlin (Jordana Spiro), as a young surgeon torn between morality and an unpaid family debt to a Southside mob boss played by William Forsythe.

Dr. Grace Devlin is a promising young surgeon working in Chicago's most preeminent hospital. Still, she can't escape her Southside roots. With her kid brother facing a mobster's wrath, Grace makes a deal and agrees to work "off book" for the infamous Chicago Outfit.

As Grace's “day job” forces her to take on emotionally compelling cases -- a convict determined to donate his heart to his estranged daughter, a whole family injured in a horrific hit-and-run -- she is also forced to deal with mob-related tasks, doing emergency medical procedures in back rooms, treating mobsters hiding from the law, and even working on a stolen thoroughbred only hours before he's due to race.

Through it all, Grace fights to keep her dual life a secret -- except from the one man who knows Grace best -- Southside mob boss Constantine Alexander, whose relationship with Grace is more than it seems.

Rounding out the ensemble cast are Zach Gilford, James Carpinello and Željko Ivanek.

Series' guest stars include Michael Rapaport, Michael Madsen, Shohreh Aghdashloo, Terry Kinney, Kevin Corrigan and Jennifer Beals.
