This cast change is not surprising, considering the show has been on for a decade.

However, some newer characters have also left Gaffney Medical Center despite their popularity.

However, the most interesting aspect of Marcel’s character was his tragic backstory.

Ironically, Mandy Patinkin’s Jeffrey Geiger had a similar backstory inChicago Hope20 years earlier.

Marcel came to Gaffney Medical Center to numb the pain of losing his 1-year-old daughter to leukemia.

There are several Chicago Med characters who have left Gaffney Medical Center over the past decade.

Some of them could return in season 10.

His final storyline was as tragic as his past.

Not only did the child die, but his father chose to take his own life.

Chicago Med is a medical drama series that explores the high-stakes environment of a bustling Chicago hospital. Set against the backdrop of chaotic emergency room scenarios, the series follows a team of dedicated doctors and nurses as they confront challenging cases inspired by real-world issues, while navigating complex relationships.

Will was a rebellious resident who constantly did the wrong thing for the right reasons.

In almost every respect, Will is an irreplaceable character, andChicago Medsimply isn’t the same without him.

He was at his best when he butted heads with Marcel, but left the season before Marcel did.

Thus, Marcel’s final season lacked something because of Will’s absence.

In almost every respect, Will is an irreplaceable character, andChicago Medsimply isn’t the same without him.

Actor Brian Tee has directed three episodes ofChicago Medsince leaving the series.

She was especially endearing when fighting for care for children who were too young to advocate for themselves.

These characters don’t make me miss Natalie any less.
