Why did Dr. Kapoor leave New Amsterdam? That’s the question plaguing fans after a very dramatic episode of the show on Tuesday night. And it wasn’t necessarily dramatic due to what we saw on the screen, but rather due to what the characters were relaying about the future of Dr. Vijay Kapoor.
The last episode was supposed to provide an impact, with Dr. Max Goodwin chasing the Chair of the Board of Directors at New Amsterdam Medical Center, Karen Brantley, through the hospital to get money for a new project. Max wanted to deal with systemic racism head-on, and he concluded that they needed a Chief Equity Officer. To his surprise, Karen let him know they already had one.
