Larry Maxwell

Larry Maxwell is Chief of Surgery at Seattle Presbyterian Hospital.

History
When Bailey came into the ER at Seattle Pres claiming to be having a heart attack, Maxwell sent his intern, Stuart, to run tests on her. When the initial tests revealed nothing of concern, she insisted on being seen by someone higher-up, so Maxwell came to see her himself. He also didn't believed there was anything wrong with her, so he refused to run a cardiac stress test. Instead, he sent a psychiatrist to consult with her. Later, after helping save another patient in the ER, Morgan, Bailey collapsed. He placed a stent, but it failed, so Maggie stepped in to do a keyhole CABG to repair the damage.
