Elliot Reid, M.D. is a fictional character played by Sarah Chalke in the American comedy-drama Scrubs. She appeared in every episode during the first eight seasons except two Season 8 episodes, "My Last Words" and "My Lawyer's in Love."
Chalke was a regular cast member for the first eight seasons and appeared in four episodes of Season 9. Elliot was a close friend and a frequent love interest to protagonist John "J.D." Dorian (Zach Braff) for the first eight seasons, and in Season 9 was his wife. Her character was portrayed with multiple neuroses and cripplingly low self-esteem. She was also close to Carla Espinosa (Judy Reyes) and Christopher Turk (Donald Faison), the series' other chief characters.
She was the daughter of Simon and Lily Reid (Lane Davies and Markie Post), and was of German descent. Her father was chief of medicine at St. Augustine's, a private hospital in Greenwich, Connecticut. She grew up privileged but love-starved; she once attributed her many neuroses to the way she was treated by her parents. Her mother was a cold, self-absorbed alcoholic, and her father tried to interfere with her career; he eventually cut her off financially after he tried to push her to specialize in gynecology and she refused. Elliot had several brothers who were also doctors but were never portrayed on the show; one of these unseen characters was her brother Barry, a closeted homosexual whom their parents sent to "hetero camp."
