Admittedly, I think someone with a specialty based in Family or Internal Medicine and maybe an advanced board certification in something like Infectious Disease would give the SG a little broader experience and perspective but it's not as if he's out there treating anyone.

Besides, I always had the feeling that Dr. Adams was being kind of side lined because you really haven't heard much from him, during this pandemic. At least I haven't seen much.
