"Der Bergdoktor" (The Mountain Doctor) is a German-Austrian television series that has been broadcast on ZDF since February 7, 2008. It is a modern remake of the original series of the same name from the 1990s.

The story follows Dr. Martin Gruber (played by Hans Sigl), a successful surgeon who returns to his hometown of Ellmau, located in the picturesque Tyrolean Alps, after years abroad. Initially, he comes back to celebrate his mother's birthday but is soon confronted with a family tragedy: his sister-in-law Sonja has died in a car accident, and he discovers that her daughter Lilli is, in fact, his own biological child.

This revelation leads Martin to stay in Ellmau, where he takes over the local medical practice from the retiring Dr. Roman Melchinger.

Each episode features emotionally and ethically complex medical cases handled by Dr. Gruber. Alongside his professional challenges, the series delves into his personal life and relationships—with his brother Hans (Heiko Ruprecht), his mother Elisabeth (Monika Baumgartner), and his daughter Lilli (Ronja Forcher).

Blending medical drama with heartfelt family stories and set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Tyrolean mountains, Der Bergdoktor has become a beloved and long-running TV series in the German-speaking world.
