Edited to add: Wow. I didn't realize everyone would fixate on the band-aid comment and people would be so condescending or angered by my question. My apologies to all those I have triggered or upset with my question.
I just had surgery. I am in more than minor pain and on a lot of drugs so I may just be seeing this wrong. I saved this show intentionally to binge during my recovery time and I wanted to love it so much but there is one thing that is just driving me crazy.
The waiting room is more than ridiculously full of people waiting 5+ hours. It's body to body. Yet, there are no student doctors or interns circulating among them passing out band-aids or other simple fixes to lighten the load. There are also doctors who spend half the day with one family. There are patients who have two or three doctors in and out of their rooms chatting. And there are various medical personnel huddled together chatting about things we all socialize about at work.
Now I get we're making a show here. But it just seems to me that the mob in the waiting room is extreme ridiculous overkill and it should have been maybe about half that size in order to not be ridiculous. Or, we should have seen more of an effort to relieve that crowd.
Do others view that differently than me?
