Shaun’s father is very cruel to him. There likely are various patients who were gaslighted in some way, but I can’t recall any specific ones.

Many patients who appear suffer from addiction. Clair ends up getting addicted to sex after her mom dies, using sex as a coping mechanism. She realizes this is wrong and stops after a while.

In the newest episode "The Good Boy" a dog is run over by a car within the first forty seconds of the episode, likely deliberately as the driver immediately speeds away instead of getting out to check if the dog is okay.

A man’s foot gets cut off while swimming. The process of his foot getting cut off isn’t seen, however his foot is eventually found and reattached. His severed foot is seen, however in real life while recording it was most likely a prop. Other episodes contain patients getting foot and toe injuries, but I can’t recall any specifics aside from this one as this episode was from the latest (at the time of writing this review) season.

It’s a doctor show, so amputation is inevitable. Many patients come in needing amputation. It’s clear when one of these surgeries is starting, so you can look away during that scene to still hear what the characters are saying as they may say important stuff, or you can fast foward through those scenes.

MAJOR SPOILERS!!!!
////////////
At the end of season 6 episode 9, Jordan (Dr. Allen) goes to Danny's (Dr. Perez) house for their date, he doesn't answer when she knocks, and when she looks through the glass panels in his front door she sees him on the floor unconscious. She manages to bust inside and it's quickly revealed that he relapsed and overdosed on heroin (the overdose is confirmed by Danny himself in episode 10, where he assures Jordan his OD wasn't her fault); There's a syringe on the floor next to him, a bleeding injection-site in his inner elbow, and a tourniquet on his upper arm. As this is the most recent episode as of December 21st, 2022 (when I'm posting this), it's unknown if he survives. It's also hinted at (in a conversation in an earlier episode) that Danny's relapse/overdose was due to him agreeing to have a date with Jordan, in turn taking his focus away from his sobriety and career (earlier in episode 9 we see him unable to do the task Shaun asked him to do, which was mostly because he blamed himself for what happened to the patient, but the impending date could've also been a factor).

Yes and no. They're not ghosts in the traditional sense, but at least 3 characters (Shaun, Aaron, and Claire) are visited by visions of deceased loved ones at separate points in the show, all during very important moments for their character arcs. Aaron sees his late daughter Maddie (while he's recovering from brain surgery; he's finally given an opportunity to apologize to his daughter for his hand in her death and how he mistreated her in life), Shaun sees his brother Steve (a few times, most notably while searching for Leah after an earthquake, and in the season 6 premier when he gets overwhelmed during Lim's surgery), and Claire sees Dr. Melendez (during the Covid arc of season 4, while she's searching for the owner of some dogtags she found in the room where they keep belongings of the deceased, and later while preparing to return said dogtags to the owner), who died from internal bleeding (and other things) very shortly after the two confessed their love for one another in the last episode of season 3.

As well as having a past of physical abuse, the main character is constantly harassed, degraded, and otherwise verbally abused for being autistic. I'm being petty here but also I think if you're an autistic person watching this, this whole SHOW is autism specific abuse.

This episode in general is very fatphobic, saying things like "i'd hate to be married to a fat person" etc.

In episode 1.14, a young trans girl is repeatedly, cruelly misgendered by the main character and her grandmother. Both the main character and her grandmother repeatedly invalidate her and express very transphobic sentiments, and they are treated with more sympathy for "not understanding" than the girl herself for being a victim of it. The girl's whole arc revolves around educating cis people and suffering for being trans. As a trans person, I found it highly degrading and upsetting.

Oh, is there! This entire series takes every single disgusting stereotype about autistic people and makes a show out of it. (That we're incompetent, that we act like children, that we're primarily cis white males, that we 'can't help' but be inappropriate and unkind because of our autism, that we automatically don't want romance or sex, that autism makes us inherently ignorant, that we can only 'make up for' our autism if we have an unrealistic level of 'savant' abilities... It goes on and on.) It is by non-autistic people, for non-autistic people, so they can look down on us and feel better about themselves. Specifically, I feel like it's really reaching out to the white, Republican, Autism $peaks-supporting, 'autism mommy' kind of person.

As an autistic person, this entire show revolves around extreme, dehumanizing, degrading ableist stereotypes. Also, this show only brings up things like racism, transphobia, misogyny, etc. in order to make it out like they aren't real problems. This show is a white Republican 'autism mom's wet dream.
