Scrubs Synopsis

news-details

"Scrubs" focuses on the strange experiences of Dr. John "J.D." Dorian (Zach Braff, "Garden State," "The Last Kiss"), a medical resident, as he continues on his healing career in a surreal hospital crammed full of unpredictable staffers and patients -- where humor and tragedy can merge paths at any time.

Joining the rumpled J.D. at Sacred Heart Hospital are fellow residents Chris Turk (Donald Faison, "Remember the Titans," "Felicity") -- J.D.'s college buddy who is part of the more elite surgical group -- and the beautiful but socially awkward Elliot Reid (Sarah Chalke, "Roseanne").

Keeping a watchful eye over these young doctors are the caustic chief of medicine, Dr. Bob Kelso (Ken Jenkins, "Courage Under Fire"), the abrasive but caring Dr. Perry Cox (John C. McGinley, "Wall Street," "Platoon"), and no-nonsense nurse Carla Espinosa (Judy Reyes, "Oz"). Neil Flynn ("Magnolia") the hospital janitor, portrays J.D.'s nemesis who never seems to miss an opportunity to harass his target.
