On the whole "Scrubs" suffers from "Marcus We

[Selinachen]

"That is not to say that the Flowers character's understated reaction to the slurs is one we would recommend for nursing as a whole. Scrubs' creators worked hard to convey that Flowers was a formidable guy and his critics were idiots to give him a hard time. Real nurses do not enjoy those advantages. On the whole ""Scrubs"" suffers from ""Marcus Welby Syndrome,"" in which physicians are shown directing if not providing all meaningful health care. The show's vision of physicians as flawed but still dominant heroes is underlined by its theme song. This associates the young physicians with a teamwork message, as if their development involved learning that however wonderful they are, they still need some help. This is the same message often addressed to preschool children, as in, for example, ""Rescue Heroes"" products. But ""Scrubs"" viewers are unlikely to see it as a subtle dig at physicians. Instead, most will likely see the issue as the extent to which physicians are ""supermen,"" which reinforces the notion of physician primacy in health care. Moreover, based on the show's content, the help the song envisions would probably come mainly from other physicians."
