What to Expect from Doc Season 2 Episode 16: Best We Can Do

Doc, Previews

Doc returns after a brief hiatus, and so does one of its most infamous doctors on Doc Season e Episode 16, “Best We Can Do.”

It’s been a long time coming, but Dr. Richard Miller is officially back working at Westside. Needless to say, Amy is not pleased about the situation.

If the promo is anything to go by, Amy will be making her feelings clear. In fact, she warns him that she will be watching him like a hawk. She is ready to take him down at the first whiff of a mistake on his part.

Amy might not have long to wait, either, if the mistake referenced in the promo is made by Richard. Making the situation even more volatile is Amy’s current patient. He is a malpractice lawyer watching the Westside staff closely from his hospital bed.

After all the build-up to Richard’s return, it seems unlikely that he would be out after one episode, but his first day back definitely isn’t going to go as smoothly as he might have hoped, not with Amy ready to pounce.

The mistake could also be something that happened in the past or one made by another doctor. Either way, it will be a test for Richard to see how he responds this time to a similar situation to the one that originally cost him his job last year.

Elsewhere, TJ and Sonya look to Jake for some help figuring out what to do about the situation with Joan.

Here’s everything you need to know about this episode, including the air date, cast, promo, and how to watch.
