Fred Wilson

Fred Wilson is a first-year medical student who toured the hospital.

History
Fred came to the hospital to tour as a medical student. He was assigned to follow Cristina Yang, who was working on Henry Burton. Henry had a large tumor that was eating into his kidney and Fred was unable to control his face when they went to talk to Henry about his scans. In surgery, Cristina gave Fred the chance to look at the tumor up close and he fainted.

He later told Cristina that he was top of his class, but he only ever saw those things in textbooks, so he wasn't prepared. Cristina gave him some advice about how to be a good doctor and cope with things. He then told her to disregard his evaluation, in which he had called her heartless, among other things.

Familial
He has an uncle who had had a kidney removed.
