5 Reasons Why Real Medicine Is Better Than Grey’s Anatomy

File under:  Doctor Resources

1. You Know The Real Dr. McSteamy and Dr. McDreamy

We can pretend as much as we want that they’re real, but we know Patrick Dempsey and Eric Dane are simply actors who play doctors, and they’re not coming to a hospital near us anytime soon. Real medical professionals see McSteamy’s and McDreamy’s in the flesh at work everyday, and they’re actually saving lives. What’s sexier than that?

2. Focus Is On The Patients, Not Who’s Dating Who

Your job is stressful already. Could you imagine having to spend tiring shifts caring for tons of patients while also worrying if your crush was around? We’re not saying real life medical professionals don’t date co-workers, but the romance and drama is typically left at the hospital doors, not carried on in the OR.

3. A Hospital Is More Than Doctors And Nurses

If you tune in to Grey’s Anatomy every week, you may think a hospital consists of solely doctors and nurses. Not true. There are tons of behind the scenes medical technicians and medical assistants who make doctors and nurses’ lives a little bit easier. They perform lab tests and do clerical work like scheduling appointments and taking care of insurance forms. Without them, even hospitals like Seattle Grace would be chaos!

4. You Don’t Have To Look Like A Movie Star In The ER

After even an hour working in a hospital, your hair is probably a little messy, and you didn’t have time to put makeup on as you dashed out of the house this morning. Besides, your patient will probably throw up on your scrubs in a few minutes. The doctors on Grey’s Anatomy look like they just got their hair, nails, and makeup done every twenty-minutes. No one expects you to look like that at work. Yet, if you want to add some pizzazz to your look, Scrubs-Max.com carries quality Cheap Medical Scrubs. They have tons of colors, prints, and sizes so you can dress your best.

5. The Rules and Regs Still Apply

There’s a reason why strict rules and regulations apply in the medical community: to protect doctors and patients and to keep the hospital in order. Could you imagine pulling an Izzy and pulling the chord on a heart transplant patient? We didn’t think so. You’d be stripped of any certification and out the door in a flash. Plus, your patient would probably be dead.

The doctors and nurses on Grey’s Anatomy may seem to have glamorous jobs, but be glad you’re not them. Your profession is complicated enough without all the melodrama. But if you do want to spice up your look a little, check out low price Medical Nursing Uniforms for men and women. You’ll catch McDreamy’s eye in no time!
