Quotes 

• Elliot : I don't know what to do. I don't know whether I should send her to surgery.

  J.D. : No, don't send her to surgery. I'll tell you what to do. You wait and see. And I know I'm right 'cause I'm a wait-and-see kinda guy. You know Elliot in modern medicine we're faced with tough decisions almost everyday...

  Elliot : You're amazing.

  J.D. : Well, amazing's sort of a strong word, I just show up and let the lord work through me.

  Elliot : You actually think you're a better doctor than me.

• Dr. Bob Kelso : Oh, don't be frightened, sweetheart. No one's on trial, here -- at least not until the family sues your little behind.

  [Elliot laughs] 

  Dr. Bob Kelso : Sweetie, I'm not joking. But, should that happen, you may rest assured that the hospital will stand behind you one-hundred percent.

  Elliot : Thank you very much, sir.

  Dr. Bob Kelso : Now, see, there I WAS joking. Try to keep up.

• J.D. : [about to bungee jump]  I don't wanna do it.

  Elliot : Come on, what's the worst that could happen?

  J.D. : We could die!

  Elliot : Okay, the second worst?

• J.D. : You see that nurse over there? I love her. Every night at 10:30 for the last year, I've watched her come in here and get a cup of coffee. And not once have I had the courage to even ask her her name.

  Elliot : Well, if it makes you feel any better, she has a snaggletooth.
