Background
Elliot explained herself pretty well in this exchange:
"Of course I'm holding back -- I'm insane, you idiot. Remember the other day when you told me I had pit-stains? Well, I have cried every fifteen minutes on the hour since you told me that. I am racked with self-doubt, I have panic attacks, I'm claustrophobic, germ-phobic, phobia-phobic. I talk to myself, I talk to my cats, I talk to three separate shrinks about the fact that often my cats respond to me in my mother's voice and, yesterday, when that stupid, pretty surgical nurse handed you a pair of latex gloves I almost killed the guy whose leg I was stitching up because I couldn't stop thinking about the two of you having sex on a box of steaks. Why a box of steaks? 'Cause my Dad had an affair with a female butcher and, as I mentioned before, I am insane. There, I opened up, are you happy?"
With that said, she is a doctor, originally from Greenwich, Conn. Her parents are wealthy and could give lessons in being snotty and repressive to Richard and Emily Gilmore; she has several brothers, but is the only girl. Most of the men in her family are also doctors. A major personal breakthrough for her was when her parents cut her off financially, and she had to -- egads -- learn to live on her salary.
Her residency was/is in the Intensive Care ward of Sacred Heart Hospital (which is most likely in California), and she has plans to go into endocrinology after her education is complete. She is in Fandom after season three of 'Scrubs', which means she has one more year of residency to go. She was sent to Fandom for the summer after a little incident involving a bet with the Todd, a fruit bikini and some donors and has decided to stay because she's enjoying teaching.
She left at the end of the 2006-07 school year to rejoin canon as co-chief resident at Sacred Heart.
