I can't believe no one posted about this. No 'Medical Center' fans?

RIP Dr. Joe Gannon

I loved "Medical Center" and definitely had a crush on Chad!

RIP, Chad Everett.

Oh those hot doctors of the 60's. Ben Casey, Dr Kildare and Joe Gannon.

RIP Chad.

Okay my crush was SO bad I named my daughter (Shelby) after his wife...

Wow! lol

I had a huge crush on Dr. Joe Gannon....I saw this earlier. May he RIP. The last time I saw him in anything was the small part he had as Candice Bergen's charater's husband in the movie, "A View From the Top."

 

[minnie56]

Well I should add, I liked the name, but when he wrote a book and called it something like 'Love song or notes to Shelby' it stuck with me. Was many years later I had her and named her Shelby LOL...

He made you WANT to go to the doctor.

That is very sad news

Very sad. Even my mother had a crush on him. His wife passed away last year. May they be reunited in eternity.

Awwww, I just saw this! He was a dreamy doctor for sure. Medical Center certainly paved the way for the television medical world, huh? Such sad news. 75 is too young. God Speed Mr. Everette

As someone with a lifelong fear of doctors, I've been a lifelong fan of dr. shows(better the people on tv than me!). I vaguely remember watching and enjoying Medical Center. It's probably pretty lame compared to some subsequent shows (i.e., ER) but it was good at the time. Sorry to hear about Chad.

I loved Medical centre and Dr. Gannon was so dreamy!

 

[I Love Pluto]

He was fabulous! I loved his Dr. Gannon part, & I never missed an episode.

He was so young. He made a lot of people happy. We felt good and comforted when we watched his shows. May God give his family peace & strength.

Thanks for posting, spacemountainmom. I didn't know.

So sad... I had a crush on him when I was a little girl.

As I was looking up the cause of death (lung cancer), I found this "Everett was selected by the family of John Wayne to be the voice of the animatronic figure of Wayne in Disney's Hollywood Studios' Great Movie Ride." I had no idea. I will listen harder next time I am on that ride!

I loved Medical Center when I was a kid--I think he was one of my first crushes. He had a small part on "Castle" this past year, and he still was so handsome. RIP Chad.

I used to love that show and thought Chad was adorable
