Push Time: This Hollywood doctor’s cameo on “Parenthood”

UPenn and Zach Lutsky and Parenthood

Over the past couple of years, Dr. Zach Lutsky (C’97) appeared on the Dr. Oz show, and was the medical consultant for “Miami Medical” and “ER“.

Last week, what started out as a behind-the-scenes TV medical consultant role turned into a small acting cameo for Zach in a scene with Erika Christensen on NBC’s season finale of “Parenthood”.

After the jump, watch the clip and find out about Zach’s “surreal” experience.



In the show, Zach got to guest star as an OB.  Originally he got hired to be a technical advisor for a couple days and then last minute they realized they wanted to add an OB character to a scene.  “I figured they’d dress me up and I’d stand there but they gave me some lines and an entrance. It was surreal!!”
