Has anyone watched NY Med? What did you think?
I am between classes right now and I was thinking of starting a new series on Hulu and ran across this show. My break is short so I don't want to commit to something that ends up being a bomb.
I have been burned by "reality" shows before so any feedback good or otherwise is welcome. Thanks!
Some of the most hated words for an ER nurse: a patient who says "I saw on Dr. Oz that…."
I will never forget the patient who, upon reaching my med-surg floor, unfolded a multi-page computer printout. And then very matter-of-factly telling me that I could review them, so "you'll know how to treat me". Yeah.....thank heavens you brought in that WebMD explanation of a diagnosis YOU DO NOT HAVE, so that we'll have a clue how to proceed on you, Oh Mysterious Patient with Common, Predictable Illness.
Loved that, truly.

Yeah, I'm no fan of "The Great Oz" either. I enjoyed seeing him get spanked in the Congressional sub-committee hearing. Sen. Claire McCaskill really put the screws to him.
