This week, Associate Editor Pippa Roscoe brings us her top 10 reasons to love a dishy doc…and we think we know who inspired her!
Who doesn’t remember their first TV crush? Mine was never in doubt. His cheeky smile, the risk-taking ways that saved lives and sent hearts aflutter around the world…and he became the father of twins! So it’s clear to see why he’s my number one reason to love a dishy doc!
- George Clooney as Dr. Doug Ross. Enough said. Seriously. Enough.
- Because beneath all the required arrogance of being able to save lives is a compassion and selflessness that you don’t often find.
- Because you know he’s going to be good with his hands. 🙂
- Because seven years spent in a grueling study program shows a commitment that he’ll continue into his relationship with you.
- Because if you haven’t seen Australian Dr. Mike on Buzzfeed or social media, you need to. RIGHT NOW. (Hot doc with a gorgeous dog who raises money for charity – what’s not to love?!)
- Because when he says he has a really good reason for being late, you know he’s not lying.
- Patrick Dempsey as McDreamy. Enough said. Again.
- Because whilst most daddies-to-be would be hyperventilating in the corridor, this one could deliver his own baby!
- Because no matter how hard he might try to lower your pulse, it will only keep rising.
- Because he can hold your heart in his hands…literally.
So just in case I haven’t given you enough reasons to love a dishy doc, are there any that I’ve missed? If so, you MUST let me know!

Uh…not my cup of tea, my memories of doctors involve a lot of screaming and pushing and hoping like crazy he can catch.
Oh no! Sorry to hear that Kimber Li, (I really hope he COULD catch!!) For me, I just can’t resist a dishy doc!
That’s what having four children will do! Thankfully, there’s something for everyone at Harlequin.
You had me at George Clooney! 😀

I spent the entire shutdown working. Had no time to wind down. I didn’t see my son much when school shutdown. My one co worker was told to stay home for 3 weeks so I picked up her hours. This year has been really crappy.
Ugh, Janell. Here’s hoping the rest of your summer is better.
Thanks for the info, Carol! Everyone is different in how they deal with the shutdown! I stay at home all the time since I don’t work so I haven’t been too effected but my shopping and errands sure have been effected!
Valri, I’ve been doing most of my shopping online. My local Target is still low on some items – mostly cleaning supplies. Grocery store is pretty much back to normal. Most of the dining in our town is outdoor. I can’t imagine have school-age kids!
Wow–getting your creative process on track must have been daunting–especially with “extra-large dog” glad to have you home. You don’t like coffee–I love coffee and have enjoyed my fortifying 2 cups in the morning even more than usual! How as COVID affected your story lines and characterizations? Best Wishes for all releases!
Interesting question, Virginia. You’ll have to tell me if the tone of my “COVID” books changed any! LOL
Life has changed so much! My dad passed Feb 2. The assisted living facility my folks were at went into hardcore lockdown the beginning of March. Mom couldn’t leave her apartment for 4 months! She was on the third floor, Will be 89 in two months & doesn’t use the phone. My husband and I remodeled the lower level completely and moved her in with us July 1. What a life change and difficult transition for the 3 of us! But we’re working thru it!
