untold stories of the er are they actors
Untold Stories of the E.R. The show follows a reenactment format in which the real-life E.R. physician narrates through a series of "talking head" clips, while their interactions with the patient are reenacted. The doctors often play themselves, and whenever possible, the patients themselves take part in the reenactment as well. In addition, the patients are sometimes shown in brief interviews to explain what happened during their ordeal. Occasionally, patients' names are changed and actors play their roles. All cases are based on actual events, but may have the surrounding circumstances changed for the sake of dramatization[1] and not necessarily accurate from a clinical or technical standpoint.[2][citation needed]
