He doesn't know how to talk to/inspire his patients AT ALL... and he's pretty arrogant. No need to be so arrogant and talk to your patients like they're retarded... We all make mistakes and he sure isn't perfect as you can see just by looking at the way he acts and talks. Obviously over eating is bad, but he just doesn't know how to inspire his patients and surgery does nothing without properly inspiring your patients.

4 Stars for the show itself, but one star for google play. Why is it taking so long to upload episodes? It's been over a week since the last episode aired on tlc and yet Google doesn't have it. Amazon uploads the episodes at least the next day. I will never purchase again, get it together Google.
