The series follows the life of Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo), the daughter of the famous general surgeon Ellis Grey (Kate Burton), starting from her acceptance into the surgical residency program at the fictional Seattle Grace Hospital (later named Seattle Grace Mercy West and finally, Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital). During her time as an intern, Grey works alongside fellow physicians Cristina Yang (Sandra Oh), Izzie Stevens (Katherine Heigl), Alex Karev (Justin Chambers) and George O'Malley (T. R. Knight), who each struggle to balance their personal lives with hectic schedules and stressful residency requirements. During their internship, they are overseen by Miranda Bailey (Chandra Wilson), a senior resident, who works with attending physicians Derek Shepherd (Patrick Dempsey), head of neurosurgery and Meredith's love interest, and Preston Burke (Isaiah Washington), head of cardiothoracic surgery, who becomes Yang's fiancé. Richard Webber (James Pickens Jr.), Chief of Surgery and attending general surgeon, is the former lover of Ellis Grey. During the first 6 seasons, Burke, O'Malley, and Stevens all depart the series.
The series also shows drama and emotions focused on Meredith's life. In addition to Webber, Burke, and Shepherd, the surgical wing is primarily supervised by Addison Montgomery (Kate Walsh), Shepherd's ex-wife and the head of OB/GYN, neonatal and fetal surgery who leaves for Los Angeles at the end of season 3; Mark Sloan (Eric Dane), head of plastic surgery; Callie Torres (Sara Ramirez), a resident who later becomes head of orthopedic surgery and leaves Seattle for New York at the end of the 12th season; Erica Hahn (Brooke Smith), as head of cardiothoracic surgery, who leaves Seattle Grace in season 5 after a disagreement with Torres, with whom she shared a brief relationship; Owen Hunt (Kevin McKidd), as head of trauma who later marries and divorces Yang; Arizona Robbins (Jessica Capshaw), as head of pediatric surgery, and later head of maternal / fetal surgery who marries Torres; Teddy Altman (Kim Raver), as head of cardiothoracic surgery who departs at the end of season 8 but returns in season 14; and Amelia Shepherd (Caterina Scorsone), Derek's sister, who is hired to replace him as head of neurosurgery.

Season 11 sees the death of Derek Shepherd, and in season 12, attending cardiovascular surgeon Nathan Riggs (Martin Henderson) joins the show. In the early episodes of season 14, Thomas Koracick (Greg Germann), an attending neurosurgeon, begins making appearances and Riggs leaves the series to start a life with Owen's long-lost sister Megan (Abigail Spencer); by the season finale, Robbins, Kepner and Warren also depart the show. Midway through the 16th season, Cormac Hayes (Richard Flood) becomes the new Chief of Pediatric Surgery and Karev made his final appearance on the series. During the 17th season, DeLuca is stabbed while chasing a child abductor and despite the efforts of Hunt and Altman, he dies.

After arriving at the hospital each morning, residents may argue over who gets the challenge of a certain patient who has arrived that day.[14] A hospital superior assigns cases, often generating tension between the residents and their superiors.[15] Within each episode, there are shifts from the doctors interacting with their patients, to scenes with their co-workers. Once assigned a case, each doctor diagnoses the patient, with the help of his or her attending physician, which usually leads to surgery.[16] The surgeons tend to form personal connections with their patients, with a patient often conveying a message to his or her doctor, which unintentionally relates to the doctor's private life.[17] The show displays the growth of relationships between the doctors, either friendly or romantic, which may produce conflicts between their personal and professional lives. Emotional scenes are often accompanied by an indie rock background song, something that has become a hallmark of the series.[18] At the conclusion of each episode, one of the characters delivers another voiceover, typically contrasting or following up on the initial one.[10]
The five characters who are first introduced in the series premiere as surgical interns, are Meredith Grey, Cristina Yang, Izzie Stevens, Alex Karev, and George O'Malley.[19] They are initially mentored by Dr. Miranda Bailey, a senior resident who becomes the hospital's Chief Resident,[20] and later an attending general surgeon, in season 6.[21] The surgical program is initially headed by Richard Webber, the Chief of Surgery, who has a pre-existing personal relationship with Meredith, having had an affair with her mother when Meredith was a child. In Webber's employ are attending neurosurgeon Derek Shepherd, dubbed 'McDreamy' by the residents, and attending cardiothoracic surgeon Preston Burke. Shepherd is introduced as Meredith's love-interest, while Burke begins a relationship with Yang.[22]
Grey, Yang, Stevens, and Karev are all promoted to residents in the season 4 premiere,[31] while O'Malley is forced to repeat his internship year, following his failing of the intern exam.[30] Subsequently, Torres and O'Malley divorce one another, due to him having an affair with Stevens, initially concealing it from Torres.[32][33] Early in the fourth season, cardiothoracic surgeon Erica Hahn becomes Torres's love-interest.[34] During the fifth season, Hahn departs from the series after a disagreement with Torres,[35] and O'Malley retakes his intern exam, passes and joins his fellow physicians as a resident.[36] 2 new characters are introduced, former United States Army trauma surgeon Dr. Owen Hunt,[37] and pediatric surgeon Dr. Arizona Robbins.[38] Hunt becomes a love-interest for Yang,[39] while Robbins begins a relationship with Torres.[40] When Stevens is diagnosed with stage IV metastatic melanoma,[41] she and Karev get married at the conclusion of the fifth season.[42] In addition, Meredith and Shepherd marry, with their vows written on a blue post-it note.[43]
O'Malley dies in the premiere of the sixth season, due to injuries sustained from saving a woman from being hit by a bus,[21] and Stevens later departs Seattle following a communication breakdown with her then-husband Karev following the Seattle Grace merger with Mercy West Hospital.[17] Several new characters are introduced as Seattle Grace Hospital merges with Mercy West Hospital.[44] Residents April Kepner, Jackson Avery, Reed Adamson, and Charles Percy, all transfer to Seattle Grace Hospital from Mercy West Hospital, and Avery has a brief relationship with Lexie, until she reunites with Sloan.[45] Subsequently, Teddy Altman is introduced as the new Chief of Cardiothoracic Surgery.[46] In the season 6 finale, a deceased patient's grieving husband embarks on a shooting spree at the hospital, injuring Karev, Shepherd, and Hunt, and killing residents Adamson and Percy.[47][48] In the shooting's emotional reverberations, Yang and Hunt abruptly marry, not wanting to risk separation.[49] Torres and Robbins eventually wed, officiated by Bailey.[50] In season eight, Webber steps down as Chief of Surgery and allocates his job to Hunt.[51] As the final year of residency for Meredith, Yang, Karev, Kepner and Avery is coming to a close, the doctors are all planning to relocate to different hospitals to pursue their specialty careers.[52] However, all plans are put on hold when several doctors from Seattle Grace Mercy West Hospital are engaged in a plane crash, which kills Lexie and endangers Meredith, Shepherd, Yang, Sloan and Robbins.[12] At the conclusion of the eighth season, Altman is courteously fired by Hunt as she struggles to decide whether or not to take the job as Chief at the United States Army Medical Command (MEDCOM).[12] 041b061a72
