@@mila_kingston8873 as do I. My dad, while not being a doctor, was a lab technician at our local hospital. His first week there he runs a test and finds the patient had a rare form of cancer.

He didn't know this person, didn't even see their face, but he didn't want the lab results to say what they did. It really affected him, after that he learned you have to put feelings aside to work in the field of medicine

Heidi Thaw you are correct. And if they know for a fact that negligence has occurred, they have no legal obligation to tell you thanks to laws that protect hospitals.
@@CanadianPuddleDancer I know right? I mean, I'm no medical expert, so I wouldn't jump to conclusions about an episode depicting a hospital from 30 years. And it wouldn't surprise me if none of the none of the people commenting were very familiar with hospital policies and working conditions from 30 or so years ago.
This was the first episode of the first season - it's just as good as any of the later seasons. Few shows have the formula nailed down in the first season.
As a cancer patient, you meet all kinds of nurses, doctors, residents, etc. The best doctors really listen to you, take in account your feelings, like is INVESTED in your health. They’ll only prescribe what’s necessary, advise against hard narcotics. My main doctor is THE big shot on leukemia and bone marrow transplant and he’s kind of my second dad. The ER doc that broke the bad news to me seemed just as affected as my mom (impeccable bedside manner). I had a resident make calls for twenty minutes to get me into a necessary procedure on a Holiday. A nurse kept apologizing when he had to draw blood from me more than once. A bad doctor/nurse is just there for work. They might be skilled, but without a heart for their patients, can you trust them with your life?
Funnily enough, I actually went to the emergency room five years ago with a ruptured berry aneurysm, and had to wait over 10 hours in the waiting room (wailing and vomiting all the while)... That bit that the Chief of Surgery said about the headache made me roll my eyes and snort. Should've said "chest pain," instead.
You're not wrong. . . . .chest pain and/or breathing problems are triaged as "high priority" over other issues and for all chest pain an EKG is going to be run. The only time I have seen a higher prio come in was an accident from a work site where the person obviously came in with a large cut over 6 inches long and very deep into their forearm and it was being held together by a towel. . . .like dude missed the 2 x 4 and used the circular saw on his forearm instead.
My very healthy mother died in a hospital 4 days before Christmas last year because her doctors took one look at her and said Diabetes. Turns out she had gotten a drug resistant bacteria that you only get from sterile environments and it eventually shut down her body. 3 weeks they kept telling her go home, try this diabetes meds you will feel better, you gotta get your blood sugar down. Nothing she tried worked and they still blamed her. Now I’m 28, getting married this year and will never ever get my mom back. Hospitals and doctors are not immune to failing. It happens all the time. If my mom had had COVID-19 she might have survived but because they thought she was overweight and not taking care of herself, she died. 53 years old.
Gunshot wound to the neck with a SIX INCH EXIT WOUND??? Was the neck even 6 inches thick? How is this possible? No wonder Leon Vance left the medical field and took a managerial job at NCIS.
It doesn't matter at all if you have nothing to hide, you're still in danger. Look up the video "Don't talk to police" by Regent University, it's a famous video that explains this in great detail. Even the most good faith, honest, innocent person can and will get screwed over by the police if they talk without a lawyer.
I’m so glad I have all these episodes on DVD 📀, otherwise I’d be pissed with these teaser clips. This was a great episode! George Dzundza stole that detective role from everyone, he was the best!!!
Saw two familiar character actors in this clip, though I don't remember their names. The father at the start of the clip also played Leo McGarry in the West Wing. And the black doctor midway through currently plays the Director of NCIS.

I'm a lowly EMT-B and I could've told ole Max he was more than likely suffering from a subdermal hematoma. I don't get how the doc could've thought he had a brain tumor. There's a rather large difference between the two.
5:24-5:35 at first I thought his doctor's bedside manner is a weird and slightly hypocritical thing for the *character* to focus on, since he's also shown detachement when discussing upsetting things as part of his job. Most people in those fields (medical, social, etc) have to, if they want to stay sane. Then I realized he is usually pretty considerate of the feelings of victims & survivors, and detached with his colleagues - it wasn't the doctor's attitude per second, it was who the doctor chose to express that attitude to. Or maybe I'm overthinking it, and it's because he was scared & stressed and so couldn't be objective about a doctor being as unemotional with him as he sometimes is with others in the course of his job.
I like the handheld camera in the early seasons, gives it a documentary feel - but doesn't induce motion sickness like the "shakey cam" other tv shows began doing in the mid 2000s
1:09 Interesting - John Spencer was the chief of staff in 'The West Wing', and the background for that character was that he was a fighter pilot in Vietnam.
If you got a life or death illness, getting a second opinion is prob worth the expense. Doctor's are like cops, they'll look out for each other at the expense of the public.
One thing all these commenters should know is that residents work crazy long hours, sleep on shift, and rarely ever eat. The problem is really the doctors that monitor the residents. There should ALWAYS be a doctor monitoring or reviewing the work the residents do. The problem isn't the residents. It's the doctors who don't want to do their job.
I felt so sorry for the victim’s father. He knew she was negligently treated and it took some time before someone took him seriously. When the doctor failed the sobriety test in court, he really looked like he didn’t know what to feel.
Yeah, that's the problem with life. Everyone thinks you're crazy when you actually have a point about something. We're pretty much the broken clocks.
Any particular reason that the vic's father screams "Leo from West Wing" to me?
Because it’s the same actor
