GREY'S ANATOMY ADDS A GAY MALE SURGEON: WHY IT'S ABOUT TIME

Grey's Anatomy has had s fair share of LGBTQ reprentatn over the urse of s 14-year n, but Season 15 will troduce Grey Sloan Memorial's first ever gay male surgeon! It seems kd of bafflg that took Grey's Anatomy this long to troduce a gay male surgeon on the show, pecially sce 's had que a few bisexual and lbian doctors over the years -- Callie Torr (Sara Ramirez), Arizona Robbs (Jsi Capshaw), Eri Hahn (Brooke Smh), Cara DeLu (Stefanie Spampato) and Eliza Mnick (Marika Domczyk) jt to name a few. It seems wild that gay surgeon hasn't entered the picture until now.

And OK, sure, the long-nng ABC seri had a few gay male patients over the years, but there haven't been any that have had ser stayg power on the show. The long-nng ABC medil drama is addg s first gay male surgeon to the st.

Arizona Robbs, both gay doctors on the seri who have sce left the seri, are two of the show's most beloved characters. And, y, of urse there have been gay male characters on the show before, but not as surgeons.
