Savannah continues to push forward in her career thanks to her new role on Season 6 of The Good Doctor. She portrays a new resident doctor named Danica "Danni" Powell.
Her character also shares her physical condition. Per The Cinemaholic, Dr. Powell lost her right leg while serving as a U.S. Navy lieutenant. An accident with a flight deck caused severe damage to her leg, forcing doctors to amputate. Determined to still do good, she went on to graduate medical school.
She may not have planned for the loss of her leg, but Savannah has been able to persist and flourish since her accident.
