This half-hour comedy focuses on the bizarre experiences of fresh-faced medical intern John
"J.D." Dorian (Zach Braff) as he embarks 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. in his exhilarating brave new world are his college buddy, Chris
Turk (Donald Faison, "Clueless"), an intern with a more elite surgical group, and J.D.'s fellow
intern, the beautiful and driven Elliot Reid (Sarah Chalke, "Roseanne"). Keeping the new interns
on their toes are: The fatherly chief of medicine, Dr. Bob Kelso (Ken Jenkins); the abrasive,
Dr. Perry Cox (John McGinley), and the caring but slightly jaded nurse Carla Espinosa (Judy
Reyes). The hospital janitor (Neil Flynn) also never seems to miss an opportunity to harass his
target.Scrubs is filmed in a real-life hospital. It's the North Hollywood Medical Center, which has
gone under severe reconstruction to fit all the equipment and represent Sacred Heart Hospital.
Interesting trivia: Sacred Heart was the name of the school that Christa Miller worked; in one
episode Zach Braff accidentally calls the Janitor Neil Flynn, which is the actor's real life name..
