Michael Dixon is the new fire chief for Seattle Fire Department.
History
Becoming Chief
Michael was chosen to replace the late Lucas Ripley as fire chief in Seattle. He gave a press release promising good things for Seattle under his leadership. Then he visited Station 19, where they made bad first impressions by mocking him without knowing he was standing behind him. He declared his intentions to use specifically Maya to generate good press for the fire department. After Station 19 responded to a fire at a store where a set of fireworks had been set off, he lauded the department's efforts in that case during a press conference. ("Indoor Fireworks")
While they were playing ping pong, Ben proposed to Dixon that he sponsor a program to staff ambulances with physicians, bringing the hospital to the public. He rejected Ben's idea and then left to go to a meeting. After watching Martin die, Ben went back to Dixon and asked him what he had to do to make the physician response team happen. He asked Dixon to give half the money and said he'd get Grey Sloan to make a fellowship to cover the other half. ("Eulogy")
New Captain and Pruitt's Cancer
Dixon was pleased with Maya was named the new captain of station 19 and supported her when she gave her first big speech to the team. Later, he ran into Pruitt, who was having trouble getting his cancer treatment covered even though the cancer was almost definitely a result of his work as a firefighter. Dixon brushed off Pruitt and his concerns. ("House Where Nobody Lives")
