Student Doctor Victoria Javadi Pivots to Psychiatry
9 Jun
Summary
- Victoria Javadi moves from ER to psychiatry rotation next season.
- Her shift follows an epiphany about mental health's importance.
- Ayesha Harris is promoted to series regular for season three.

Student doctor Victoria Javadi, a beloved character on "The Pitt," will be taking on a new role in the upcoming third season. Actress Shabana Azeez confirmed that Javadi will be shifting from her emergency room rotation to psychiatry. This move comes after Javadi experienced a significant realization about the critical importance of mental health for patients and her colleagues alike.
The second season finale hinted at this change, with Javadi expressing her newfound interest in mental health to Dr. Whitaker and Dr. Robby. As the show prepares for its third season, set to pick up in winter without a major time jump, Javadi's focus will be on psychiatric medicine. While this means fewer ER shifts, she will still appear when the psychiatric department is needed.
In addition to Javadi's new path, Ayesha Harris, who plays Dr. Parker Ellis, has been promoted to series regular. Harris will be working the day shift in the upcoming season. These staffing changes follow the earlier departure of Supriya Ganesh's Dr. Samira Mohan.
