After seven seasons of cracking tough medical cases and navigating ups and downs in their personal lives, the ABC medical drama is coming to end. To mark the milestone, the cast shared moving tributes on Instagram about the show and recalled the early days on the job.

In a series of poignant photos on Instagram, Gubelmann, 44, showed her first day on set in season 1, her first time wearing scrubs and even her audition materials, which included a short list of the show's executive producers, director, writers and key castmembers, including Thomas, 37, Highmore, 32, Gonzalez, 48, and Schiff, 68.

"From my first day on set to now my last. The journey has been life changing. I’ve loved every minute of it," she wrote in the caption. "Thank you to everyone involved in The Good Doctor for everything 🩷Photos 1. First day on set 2. First episode script 3. First time in scrubs 4. Audition breakdown 5. Beautiful tree I saw on my walk towards the audition @thegooddoctorabc #thegooddoctor #parnick"

Since its premiere in September 2017, The Good Doctor struck a chord with viewers, sensitively and accurately portraying autism in its brilliant lead character, played by Highmore, and respectfully handling the moral ambiguity around difficult topics like spousal abuse, organ donation and female genital mutilation. The show has also been nominated over the years for a Golden Globe for Highmore's portrayal and three Critics Choice Awards for Highmore and Schiff's performances.
