GEORGE O'MALLEY

played by T.R. Knight

George quotes

POSITION:
Intern

STRENGTHS:
Kind-hearted; compassionate; loyal; excellent bedside manner; great at calming patients

WEAKNESSES:
He can get a little too involved with patients, and, as marrying Callie on the spur of the moment demonstrates, he can be very impulsive.

LIKES:
Scrubbing in; strengthening friendships; looking good in front of the Chief

DISLIKES:
Being a second-year intern; operating on family; Thanksgiving hunting trips; picking a car; being emasculated.

FAMILY:
George is close to his family, although he has always felt like an outsider to them. After his father died of cancer, George assumed the role of head of the family, looking after his Mom and brothers as they dealt with the death of their father and husband. Married and later divorced Callie.

NOTABLE RELATIONSHIPS:
George thought he had found his perfect match in the form of Dr. Callie Torres, but unfortunately the marriage didn't last for long, particularly after an ill-fated affair with his best friend, Izzie Stevens.

OTHER:
He was nicknamed 007, or licensed to kill, by the other interns after a terrible first surgery, but George redeemed himself by performing heart surgery in a lift during a power cut. He's become much more confident in his work.

Education: School of Medicine, Oregon
Most humiliating moment: 007 (License to Kill) nickname
