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!!

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: “the car will crash” “she’s in labour” “he’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! 🙄

Long Covid Clinic: “so you’re currently too disabled to take part in any of our recommended rehab programs”
Me: “What happens now?”
Clinic: “normally that means we would discharge you from the service”
Me: “to some other service?”
Clinic: “um, 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!
