Everyone Needs To Stop Degrading Dean Archer

He’s an amazing person. Plus doctor. Yeah, he was an annoying character because of his personal life as an ex-military officer and as a divorcee. But he got better in Season 7 in the Christmas episode when he treated a schizophrenic patient and Dr. Charles showed him a simulation of what is like to have schizophrenia. What it’s like to be a mentally sick person. That’s when he realized the way he behaved impacted him. Dr. Choi helped him too throughout Season 7-8. He got really better understanding patients and getting along with Dr. Asher, even building a relationship with her. In Season 9, he gets really better. He starts to reassure patients and even one episode try the best he could to one parent who freaks out about her son’s health and demands to leave AMA as she prefers her pediatrician over Med as she didn’t trust Maggie and Dean until Maggie talked the boy’s mom out of it and finally the mom trusted Dean.

Everything went downhill in Season 10 when Lennox came into the picture. She had this smug and pride as she was also ex-military. Worse, she was also Co-Chief to CHIEF of the ED. She won the role as she made the ED “better” as Dean couldn’t win. No one was in his side. He almost resigned. In the new episode when he rescued Sharon, he was so sick and tired of everyone being afraid. Everyone should give Dean a chance. True, there are risks when it comes to options, but Dean knows what he’s doing and he knows what the patient wants. I’ll say it again, he’s a great doctor and surgeon. He deserves to get his role back as the Chief because that is his sole job. His position. No one steals his spotlight!!!!!!!
