“Medical shows on TV aren’t 100 percent accurate, but some are definitely closer to reality than others.”
“Television medical dramas have been a staple in Hollywood for decades.”
“Pretty much all medical dramas have at least a few things in common: hospital hookups in on-call rooms and closets, doctors and nurses put in extreme situations, and similar, dramatic, and sometimes unbelievable medical cases.”
“Doc-to-Doc with Perry Wilson, MD and Oren Gottfried, MD”
“Oren Gottfried is a spinal surgeon – a pretty glamorous job, it would seem.”
“At 5pm on @WRAL: You’ll meet Dr. Oren Gottfried, a @DukeHealth neu-rosurgeon, who helps create ‘extreme’ plot lines for some of TV’s most popular medical dramas (including @NBCChicagoMed!) @OGdukeneurosurg @DukeU”
