We’re on Season 19 of #GreysAnatomy and have yet to ever see a radiologist or radiographer. The doctors just analyse all those fancy scans themselves. Amazing…..

Today in #GreysAnatomy a cardiothoracic surgeon is teaching a general surgical intern how to do an ultrasound-guided breast biopsy. None of them respect their specialty/profession/grade in this show!!

Everyone: β€œyou need to lose weight”
Fat person *tries all manner of diets with no success*
Everyone: β€œyou’re just not trying hard enough”
Fat person: *starts taking GLP1 injections and finally loses weight*
Everyone: β€œthat’s cheating”

Not yet. But fully intend to watch it once we’ve fully caught up with Greys Anatomy

I am living for the speeches Addison Montgomery makes about reproductive rights in the US in season 19 of #GreysAnatomy

S19:E1 of #GreysAnatomy and the series has peaked with this quote from Levi Schmitt - "I'll be the vagina of the programme”

The 15yo on Season 18 of #GreysAnatomy - β€œwith every episode of this show that I watch I realise that I want to be a surgeon less and less” πŸ˜‚

Agree πŸ’―! I still have all the DVDs of Cardiac Arrest - but I worry slightly that if I rewatched it now it would virtually set off PTSD

Has anyone released versions of #GreysAnatomy episodes without the interminable narration? Because we’re onto Season 18 and I increasingly hate it.

We’ve now watched so much #GreysAnatomy that one of our main sources of entertainment is predicting what will happen next: β€œthe car will crash” β€œshe’s in labour” β€œhe’s going to die”

In #GreysAnatomy today a trauma surgeon is going to do a kidney transplant as a favour to a colleague. He has not done one before. FFS! πŸ™„

Long Covid Clinic: β€œso you’re currently too disabled to take part in any of our recommended rehab programs”
Me: β€œWhat happens now?”
Clinic: β€œnormally that means we would discharge you from the service”
Me: β€œto some other service?”
Clinic: β€œum, no.”
Not the outcome I was hoping for tbh #LongCovid

In today’s unrealistic storyline on #GreysAnatomy - they diagnosed autonomic dysfunction within 10 minutes of the patient arriving in hospital. Would never happen!

Has anyone else here gone through ill-health retirement? I’m at the waiting stage to see if it will be approved, and the suspense is killing me #LongCovid

It must be hard to watch for anyone who was working in a UK hospital in the first Covid wave!

Oh no, we’re up to Season 17 of #GreysAnatomy and they’re in Covid times. I don’t think I’m going to cope with this tbh

OMG - season 16 of #GreysAnatomy and there is finally a lesbian with short hair. Only on screen for about 5 mins. But still.

Today in #GreysAnatomy a cardiothoracic surgeon is planning to operate on her cousin, in a hospital that she doesn’t normally work in. Ridiculous

The episode in #GreysAnatomy where Jackson Avery schools Richard Weber on pronouns for their non-binary patient is giving me all the feels. S15:E18
