Mr. Scofield is a patient who'd had a bullet in his shoulder for 50 years.
History[]
Mr. Scofield came into the clinic with a bullet that had been lodged in his scapula for 50 years, since he'd served in Korea. They'd left it when it happened because it was safer to leave it in, but it had started hurting, so he came into the clinic to get a pain reliever. Izzie Stevens took some x-rays and located the bullet.
Because it had worked its way into scapula and gotten infected, they decided to remove the bullet. He asked them if he could see the bullet afterward, because he was convinced he'd been shot by one of his own men. They gave him the bullet, but they weren't able to read any identifying marks on it.
