Unfortunately, in my experience, this has been quite true so I agree with your comment Candall. I have a condition that requires me to deal with neurosurgeons a fair amount. I’ve lived all over the world, and I’ve had some really good surgeons who were able to empathize and understand the condition and give excellent care, but I’ve also had those at the opposite end of the spectrum. Most recently, I had a younger neurosurgeon who botched a simple surgery not once but twice, making the exact same error each time. His errors were life threatening and then I ended up with a severe infection that nearly killed me and was hospitalized for over 3 months. His arrogance caused him still to claim he did nothing wrong. The severe infection that I ended up getting he initially claimed was just “wound drainage” and wouldn’t come to evaluate me. When they finally got the cultures back, it was clear that was not the case. I’m an attorney, so I went to the State Medical Board as I knew this was my best option to stop him, at least temporarily, from practicing. They suspended his license while they investigated. They then eventually revoked his license to practice medicine altogether as they found him to be extremely negligent and not acting in the best interests of the patient.
Medical Malpractice Laws typically favor the doctors in most states, so I didn’t take this any further as I just wanted his license revoked so he couldn’t injure or possibly kill another patient. The errors made on most medical shows, including this one, can certainly be exaggerated and definitely do often take some dramatic license, however, generally speaking, as laws are typically written to favor the doctors and the hospital/HMO/etc. will protect its own (in order to protect themselves), it can be difficult to completely remove (or even suspend) a bad doctor from the system.

I am also not sure why Oliver Platt is in a wheelchair. I can’t recall if he got some diagnosis at the end of the previous season (other than the psychiatric condition he has) or what – it would have been nice if they would have refreshed our memories if he had another condition. Or perhaps there’s something actually going on with Oliver Platt? Does anyone know?
If the “new guy” you are referring to is the one that did the eye “surgery” on the HIV positive patient, he was indeed on another one of the “Chicago’s.” He was on Chicago Fire as a Fire Fighter on Squad (I think), though didn’t get much screen time and then left because he was transferred to another house just as he was transferred to 51 from another house to start with. I don’t recall them ever mentioning that he had a medical background while he was on Chicago Fire.

I like the actor – I always remember him from “Boss,” another Chicago based show, which had a few of the cast members from Chicago Fire in it. It would have been nice, however, to see how he made the leap from fireman to doctor and, given his time on Chicago Fire, he would have had to have been pretty much done with med school to be where is now on Chicago Med, but, as I mentioned before, no mention of his medical background on Chicago Fire at all as far as I can recall.
