In Lenox Hill, Dr. Little-Richardson is seen coaching women through labor and delivery while also navigating complications arising from her own pregnancy. Before the series concludes, she, her husband, and their newborn daughter move out of their New York City apartment and head to California, where her husband has worked for a while.
Today Dr. Little-Richardson is an ob-gyn in San Jose, where she remains "passionate about reducing the disparities in maternal health outcomes experienced by minority women." She told Oprah Magazine that she agreed to participate in the series "to showcase people like myself, who I feel like are not commonly represented — not only in television, but just in medicine in general." She continued: "[I hope] that people walk away from the show seeing the contributions of women and Black individuals in medicine. And I hope that it encourages young people everywhere to explore and really consider becoming a physician, because we continue to need diversity within the healthcare system."
