Where Are They Now? Top 7 Sexiest Doctors On TV

When your heart starts racing, it's better to see a doctor. But what do you do if the doctor makes your heart race?

It's a dilemma familiar to many TV viewers who have seen these seven actors play doctors.

Paul Rudd (Dr. Isaac Herschkopf on The Shrink Next Door)

First and foremost, psychiatrists are doctors, too. Paul Rudd, who you may remember from This Is 40 or Marvel's Ant-Man franchise, starred as a psychiatrist in Apple TV+'s miniseries The Shrink Next Door in 2021. Since then, the actor has returned to his big screen roles, including the aforementioned superhero in this year's Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantimania. Besides, Rudd is set to star in the upcoming movie Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire.

Seth MacFarlane (Dr. Elmer Hartman on Family Guy)

While we don't see Seth MacFarlane's face on his flagship animated show, we can still hear his voice, which he gives to multiple characters. Dr. Hartman is one of them. The actor still stars in Family Guy. But he also has an upcoming Ted show based on his famous foul-mouthed toy character from the eponymous film franchise.

Patrick Dempsey (Dr. Derek Shepherd on Grey's Anatomy)

After starring on ABC's top medical drama for over a decade, the actor quit the show in 2015, but has since made several guest appearances there. In 2022, he reprised his role in Disney+'s Disenchanted. He also has a starring role on Devils since 2020.

Brad Pitt (Dr. Anthony Fauci on SNL)

One of the most famous male actors in the entire world, Brad Pitt portrayed the head of the White House Coronavirus Task Force in the 2020 SNL skit. Since then, the actor and producer had been pretty busy with numerous projects. He has appeared in The Lost City and Babylon, and has served as an EP in Netflix's Blonde.

Denzel Washington (Dr. Philip Chandler on St. Elsewhere)

The star of the iconic 1980s medical drama has had an extensive career since his tenure on the show. Among the actor's most recent works are The Equalizer 3 and Ridley Scott's upcoming Gladiator 2. What's more interesting, Washington also directed an episode of Grey's Anatomy in 2016.

George Clooney (Dr. Doug Ross on ER)

Although Clooney only appeared in eight episodes of the CBS medical drama, he remains one of the hottest TV doctors of all time. Since then, the actor has had many prominent roles, including Danny Ocean in the Ocean's friends franchise. This year, you may have seen him as Bruce Wayne in The Flash.

Ryan Reynolds (Med student Michael Bergen on Two Guys and a Girl)

Well, this is definitely a stretch given that the actor's character was only a med student, but you can't deny his hotness. Since the sitcom, Reynolds has built an immensely successful career that includes a main role in the MCU, which he's set to reprise in 2024's Deadpool 3. As for this year, Reynolds has made a cameo appearance in Ghosted.
