Neurosurgery resident Stephen Bergin said about his experience consulting for Grey's Anatomy:
"We would receive scripts from the ... writers with lines in them that would literally say 'medical, medical, medical'. It was my job to fill in these lines with applicable medical jargon.
"I would also be consulted on what type of injury could bring two characters working in different medical departments together. For example, if they needed a reason for a neurosurgeon and a cardiothoracic specialist to be in a room together, I would come up with the injury that meant they were both needed."
