Daily Dose of Joy: TV Doctors Pay Homage to the Real Heroes

[This is part of our ongoing series. We all need joy right now. Here’s hoping this helps.]

In honor of World Health Day—and the current pandemic putting medical professionals on the frontline of this fight—former HOUSE star Olivia Wilde recruited a gaggle of fellow actors who previously portrayed doctors to thank them for their service. (Also, Wilde directed her Instagram followers to donate at Thrive Global to help first responders get much needed resources.)

Watch the lovely video, which includes stars from SCRUBS, ER, GREY’S ANATOMY, and her former HOUSE colleagues, as well as DOOGIE’s Neil Patrick Harris, NURSE JACKIE’s Edie Falco, THE GOOD DOCTOR’s Freddie Highmore, and Jennifer Garner.
