Tropes of TV Medical Dramas

from Gross Anatomy · host Gross Anatomy Podcast

Many scripted series consult with actual doctors in order to accurately portray medical professionals on television — but that doesn’t always mean your favorite show gets it right. We discuss some of the top TV tropes (like Dr. Jerk and instant bullet removal) that could get a doctor fired in real life. **GROSS ANATOMY PODCAST IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A SUBSTITUTE FOR PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL ADVICE, DIAGNOSIS, OR TREATMENT. ALWAYS SEEK THE ADVICE OF YOUR PHYSICIAN OR OTHER QUALIFIED HEALTH PROVIDER WITH ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE REGARDING A MEDICAL CONDITION.
