Mr. Sutton is a garbage man with a pet ostrich whom J.D. treats at Sacred Heart Hospital.

About[]

After being treated and discharged from Sacred Heart, Mr. Sutton left without thanking J.D.. This upset J.D. so he followed him to his house where he and Turk were attacked by Mr. Sutton's pet ostrich. After letting the doctors inside his house, he still refused to thank J.D. because he considered J.D. to just be doing his job as a doctor. Being a garbage man, he never expects or receives gratitude for performing his job. J.D. and Turk left without being thanked. ("My Big Bird")

Trivia[]
