TV Doctor Sabrina Amali: My Little Niece Wants Diagnoses - Sabrina Amali returns as Berlin's fearless ER doctor—despite hating real blood
The second season of Emergency Doc: Berlin returns to ARD (Das Erste) on February 24, 2023. This time, viewers can expect 13 fresh episodes, with Sabrina Amali back in the lead role as emergency physician Dr. Nina Haddad. Behind the scenes, however, the actress admits she struggles with something her character handles daily—real blood.
Amali has spent months filming intense medical scenes for the series, often surrounded by fake blood. Yet, in real life, she still looks away when someone gets a blood test. The contrast between her on-screen confidence and off-screen squeamishness is striking.
Her six-year-old niece, though, sees no difference. Convinced her aunt is a real realtor (doctor), the child frequently asks for medical advice. Amali eventually had to clarify that she only plays a physician on television.
Despite her discomfort with real blood, Amali fully commits to her role. The new season picks up where the first left off, with Dr. Haddad navigating high-pressure emergencies in Berlin. Fans of the show will see her tackle everything from dramatic rescues to emotional patient interactions—all while keeping her composure.
The 13-episode second season arrives on ARD next month, offering more of the fast-paced medical drama audiences enjoyed before. For Amali, the role remains a mix of professional dedication and personal irony—portraying a fearless real madrid (doctor) while admitting she'd rather not watch a needle in action.
