Everyone over here hating on Dr. Curry for THIS decision of all things? The patient asked to be discharged. They CAN'T hold her there against her will unless it's deemed that she cannot make her own medical decisions. However, she was alert, aware, and able to understand the consequences of being released in her condition. Therefore, she might have to sign an "against medical advice" form, but they had to let her go. A psych hold was unwarranted, and this is the first clip I've seen where Dr. Charles was in the wrong.

[@marvolom787]

They seems to hate dr. Curry overall. Just because her role is to opose dr. Charles.

[@mcnoneya]

@@marvolom787 I definitely disagree with Dr. Charles but I do think Dr. Curry is probably meant to be an antagonist. She’s very ambitious and sometimes blinded by it. I remember an episode where a woman wanted to keep her child though it would endanger her own life I forget what exactly Dr. Curry did but it went against the patients wishes

[@swimfast724]

I think it was the fact that she encouraged the patient that what she was doing was totally fine and healthy when in reality it was dangerous. And also she went directly against her superior. But yes, she has done far worse things and this is mild compared to those

[@marvolom787]

​@@mcnoneya Yeah, and she saved that's womans life. By lying, falsyfying records sure, yet she was only reason that patient lived.

Also Dr. Curry saved that poor father from watching his wife die, while being able to do nothing

[@dmf1301]

I agree that her bedside manner is not great at all. However, plenty of doctors have lousy bedside manners in real life, too. For many reasons. Being socially awkward isn’t necessarily a deterrent to being accepted into medical school or employed as a doctor.

I'm sure that a real life med student would also be fired for such a breach. However, I was referring to her bedside manner in my comment - I used the term 'socially awkward' because there are many, many people who just don't have people skills... not because they're bad people, but because it can be hard. I have autism, and socializing can be hard for me, too. So I want to be fair to others who may have issues we don't know about. Real life doctors as well as TV/Film characters. But being socially awkward is one thing - criminal behaviour/negligence like lying to patients and manipulating equipment to bully them into a surgery they don't want is a separate thing - and absolutely wrong, as you said. Having an awkward bedside manner doesn't excuse that deliberate action! :(

[@RandomOnePerson]

In my opinion, Dr. Curry is offering an effective means of keeping the patient healthy. The patient isn’t going to give in and expel the tapeworm, so to make sure the patient doesn’t get more ill, doing a case study and monitoring her vitals on a regular basis is a great way to check up on her health while at the same time gathering valuable information.

[@jessp.r.7181]

Yeah, i believe the one in the wrong here was Dr. Charles, you cannot act against your patients wishes, she’s not in immediate danger and no one really has concrete answers in why to keep her inpatient. Even though Curry is not my fav character she was doing the most logic and safe thing in this case.

[@thomas_walker]

i agree. most of the time, a chronically-ill person knows how their bodies function, what helps, and what doesn't. if the patient insists this is helping her (and if the evidence suggests it may be), then dr. curry's plan is an excellent follow-up

[@jessicaarmstrong5035]

I think part of that was because of Dr. Curry. She went behind his back and he probably felt like he didn't have control over her. Due to his wife being sick, he was probably feeling vulnerable and reacted that way. As far as I'm concerned, Dr. Charles might not be doing great in this episode but I also think that Dr. Curry precipitated that confrontation. She needs to be written up for her behavior here.

Ingesting tapeworms/tapeworm eggs was sadly a common trend in the 70s I believe, many lost their life doing the pill that contains tapeworm eggs to achieve the “perfect body”.

One of the times I was in the ER I had a PA (physician's assistant) do an initial assessment on me and examined me. It's important to know that this had been probably my 20th visit to the er in the past 2 years, and I have a regular doctor who works at the hospital who usually takes care of me and he was on vacation but I was in terrible pain and I had to go to the er. Anyway, she walked in the door holding my papers and the first thing she said was "why are you here again? You were told to follow up with a specialist. Did you do that? There's nothing else we can do for you here" and I said that I was in really terrible pain much worse than usual and she said "you look fine to me. We're not going through this again, go see a different doctor" and walked out. I was stunned and shocked by her attitude and behavior and the way she spoke to me. We submitted a formal complaint to the hospital and she got a citation or something, but that affected me mentally for weeks. That woman reminds me of the blonde med student. Almost exactly.

[@brianamcshane9219]

So that would mess me up too. But do you have any idea what kinda stuff you had wrong with your body? I noticed with mine something to do with stomach issues. I've had a few different things and I've gotten the idea over time not to go to the ER. But every time I've had stomach issues I found certain things that would affect me and I made it so I found certain pills I could get that I noticed over time would help with my stomach things tho. It was almost always let's get these specific tests first which I hated then it was I found this one Dr. that I got those pills from that didn't make me do all those tests all the time that I hated.

She started to balk and I told her to gtf out and find me a real doctor because I was going blind and didn’t have the time to deal with her. On another visit a doctor asked if my skin disease was due to injecting illicit drugs. He said he could see needle marks.

Most psychiatrists are psychopaths and almost all doctors are deeply involved in corruption. (Regulatory capture is a form of corruption, so association with medical associations, etc., is involvement with corruption. Also, occupational licensing is a monopolistic practice that, as with all other monopolistic practices, harms the buyers in the market, ie. the patients. The claim that this is done for the sake of the patients is a vicious lie to justify the psychopathic, even murderous status quo. Doctors are genuinely some of the worst people on the planet.)

Honestly I agree with holding her. Tapeworms can spread regardless of popular belief.

[@Quintus468]

They can put THIS woman on a psych hold but not the one who refused treatment for an ectopic pregnancy???

[@TimberlakeTigerGirl]

It wasn't ectopic. She was on such a poor diet that is was causing the fetus to be severely underdeveloped.

[@Quintus468]

@@TimberlakeTigerGirl it's been a while but I think I'm referring to a clip I saw in which a woman refused an abortion for an ectopic pregnancy due to religious beliefs or something until the naughty intern/new doc?/something? Tampered with the ultrasound to make it look like the fetus was already dead.

[@TimberlakeTigerGirl]

@Quintus468 Oh yeah I forgot about that.

[@basiczachh3978]

dr curry is my favorite character in this show. she’s blunt, honest, and does have an attitude, but who cares. i hate how her having a loud voice gets her shot down

[@joewhitehead3]

Does anyone remember an episode where they get a patient, a young girl, who’s trying to make it as a comedian?

[@LixxzaPr]

I just hope the worms ok 😞

[@creepylifeofme1927]

The blonde lady I had only seen in two clips and I have hated her both times she’s basically evil and self absorbed and in the last clip lied about a baby dying so the mom would opt for an operation that would’ve killed the baby

[@LeahBates-uk3wu]

it's is not going for him he not halping to her

[@annstegmayer4316]

Please FIRE Dr blonde, she destroys

[@TimberlakeTigerGirl]

In this case, she didn't do anything wrong.

[@breecegriffith5896]

This show is inferior in every way compared to House MD.

[@karendeaton9297]

It's a tv show.

[@gendoll5006]

I can’t staaaannndddd that blonde lady!!! Between this and rigging the fetal monitor to trick a pt into thinking her baby died, I don’t know what happens to her on the show but man I hope she gets fired.

[@sapphirewingthefurrycritic985]

I don't care what the blonde chick's name is, just that she is INFURIATING.

[@themetachristian8933]

I do not like the blonde Dr they need to get rid of her

[@creakastro8943]

she walked out of the show awhile ago

[@Hey_JSJ]

You know whenever these clips come up, I try to give them the benefit of the doubt and try to hope that they get better but they don't. The Acting in the show is horrendous.

[@annstegmayer4316]

I Love💛🤍💙dr Charles

[@marissanorth85]

That student had no business making a single judgement call.

[@TimberlakeTigerGirl]

She didn't do anything wrong. She only suggesting getting her in some medical testing programs. And when the patient asked to be released, Curry obliged. But also gave her information about adjusting her diet and being monitored with regular follow ups.

[@burningxnecro]

Am I the only one who gets the feeling that Dr.Charles has it out for Dr.Curry. He forced her to be in a room with a violent misogynist after he had her research said misogynist's online activities, in addition to having her walk him through said research, despite her obvious discomfort; then having the gall to sympathise with the violent misogynistic gunman's 'loneliness'. He accused her of hacking a medical device with no actual evidence ("correlational is not necessarily causation"). And here he shuts down her attempts to get the patient to accept help with what the patient has decided to do, and then all but shouts her down when she explains his comments to the patient with phrasing he doesn't like.

[@AngelINTheMatrix]

Now we know the exact reason I do not like doctors

[@Myloooooooo_]

Can Dr.curry get fired?? I don’t like her 😊 she got rid of someone’s baby because it was killing the patient. Dr.curry respectfully get fired.

I was about to get mad when dr curry said that the patient couldn’t be anorexic without weight loss and dr. Charles corrected her because you 100% can.

[@tj87451]

Listen Charles is wrong But like CURRY AINT RIGHT😭😭

[@LilChelle]

The blonde who’s also sometimes the brunette if she were actually in the medical field should be tried at the stake.

[@mermaidnott9713]

I hate Dr charles. Everyone is talking about how the blonde is in the wrong but Dr charles has never had to live with a chronic illness. Not to mention he is the worst Superior ever. He made this girl sit and read through misogynistic article and when this guy called her a feminoyed she was supposed to just keep calm. Dr charles is a an awful doctor who always tries to push his morals and understandings onto His patients in his fellow colleagues. It’s ridiculous.

[@SunieEssie]

After doctor manning, this is second most annoying character.
