After attending physicians , the next level of doctors onThe Pittare aged resident physician . Typically , emergency medicine residence last between three and four years , sosenior occupier are those who are in the last year of their preparation . They have not only go away through med school , but have spent several long time working in their chosen field of view , give them plenty of hands - on experience . Though they do not have the same say-so that attendings have , they are still highly skilled doctors who are able to assist teach their less - experient peer . The Pitt’ssenior resident include Collins and Langdon .

Collins and Langdon are yet another pair of doctor that exude trust . ThroughoutThe Pitt , we see how knowledgeable they are , not only in terms of medicine , but the inner workings of the ER . The main deviation between them and their attending , besides experience , is a sentiency of self-importance . Langdon is easily work up by his peers , whileCollins often undermine Robby ’s authority due to their personal family relationship . no matter , they are still unbelievable doc with a tidy sum of credentials and experience under their belts .

Resident

Dr. Mohan, Dr. McKay & Dr. King

Underneath the elderly occupant are the regular residents . These doctors have finished medical school but are still working through their nonmigratory training programs . Because of this , they have varying degree of experience . The Pittexemplifies this through its three residents : Mohan , McKay , and King . McKay and Mohan have seemingly work at the Pitt for some time , whereas King had previously knead with warhorse , so is unfamiliar with an emergency room setting . All three have quite a bit of experience in the aesculapian domain , but are definitely still learning . Though they make heavy decisions , sometimes these selection are n’t always right .

Residents are the sweet-smelling spot between doctors and students .

Arguably , Mohan , McKay , and King have some of the most interestingroles inThe Pitt . They are character who are high enough on the totem pole that they are able to practice medicine somewhat freely , yet they are still in the process of learningbest practices , so audience are able to see them have realizations and amount into their own . Some great examples include Mohan catch her patient ’s makeup poisoning , McKay fill in an eye surgical operation , and King aid a neurodivergent affected role in a way that Langdon could n’t . Residents are the sweet spot between doctors and students .

Over the class of this twelvemonth , Santos will get her first taste of hand - on training before give for residency computer program in her landing field of selection , whether that be emergency medical specialty or operation . Oftentimes , houseman are known as first - twelvemonth resident , however their responsibilities are not quite as heavy . Over time , interns must prove their knowledge in decree to get more freedom and duty .

Santos certainly does not map every aesculapian intern in the world , but she does showcase some common pilot . Namely , Santos show the ego and ambitiousness that can turn a honorable intern into a risky one . Although Santos clear has noesis and passion for her field , her desire to move frontwards in music often smash her bedside mannerand her human relationship with her equal . Santos may be right about a hatful of thing , but her delivery can be too harsh for such an interpersonal career path . at long last , Santos dead encapsulates the crusade for more knowledge that fuels some medical interns .

Medical Student

Whitaker & Javadi

eventually , the lowest rank of doctor are the medical scholar . As their name implies , med pupil have not yet completed aesculapian shoal , and are in the midst of doing revolution in various dissimilar orbit to see what subject field fit out them best . aesculapian student have very piffling federal agency , and are mostly there to learn . More experienced Doctor will often guide med student through certain procedures and assign them low - stakes cases , while also take in them to observe and comment on more serious affected role . The Pitt’smed studentsinclude Whitaker and Javadi .

The Pitthas been confirmed for a second season . The Pittseason 2 will premiere in January 2026 and will take place 10 months after the first time of year , during the Fourth of July .

Whitaker and Javadi in spades incarnate the nervous yet eager energy of medical student . Both are emotional to be there , but are also hesitating about practicing medicine . The difficulties of the ER hit them peculiarly hard . For example , Whitaker ’s affected role death is quite hard for him , and Javadi often shows a distaste for pedigree and needles . Regardless of their rawness , Whitaker and Javadi also have shining bit where they show off their medical knowledgeand get to actually use it in a hand - on path .

Charge Nurse

Dana

Though not a doctor , one of the most important the great unwashed in an pinch section is the thrill nurse . InThe Pitt , that is Dana . Similar to an attending , the tutelage nursemaid is the leader of the ER ’s nursemaid . They keep everything running smoothly and are a font of knowledge for the section . In a chaotic landscape painting , the flush nanny is the one who help lead and delegate tasks . They are aesculapian professional person , administrative workers , and unhesitating leaders .

Dana Evans seemed like she was intent on quitting at the end of The Pitt time of year 1 , and if she really does , the show would lose a great character .

Dana is portrayed as an out-and-out superhero onThe Pitt , and that is quite precise for care nurses . Dana jazz everything when it comes to the ER , and she has a sense of authority that is hard to ignore , even for the attendings . Dr. Robby may be the most skilled medical professional in The Pitt , but Dana is at the top of the food chain in terms of leadership . If Robby does n’t recognize something , Dana does . Adding her benignity on top of that , she is undoubtedly one of the show ’s adept characters .
