Dr. Todd "The Todd" Quinlan is a surgeon who works at New Sacred Heart. Despite his jock-like disposition, he is known to be a talented and knowledgeable surgeon.

About

The Todd's greatest joy in life is sex. Although he hasn't slept with nearly the amount of women he brags about, he makes sex jokes and innuendos about sex or the ladies practically every time he speaks. He hits on all the ladies, over which Laverne and Carla get quite worked up. The Todd thinks that his womanizing problems come from his poor relationship with his parents. However, sometimes The Todd checks out the men around Sacred Heart. Once he admitted to being gay so that he can take advantage of Elliot and Carla, but later in that same episode it is implied that he is bisexual. The Todd appreciates "hot", regardless of gender. It's possible that he is just so sex-obsessed that he has no preference whatsoever

The Todd enjoys giving and receiving high-fives putting them in second place behind sex. He will give any type of high-five to anyone for any reason. He is very adamant about being the only person who gives out high-fives. ("My Full Moon") He got his love for high-fives while attending med school at the Bahamas from his old professor. ("My Soul on Fire, Part 1") Some of his high-fives can hurt the weaker, or those not expecting them, for he visits the gym very often to train his arms. They can also bring a dead patient back to life. His right arm has a tattoo of "DOC" on it, which he shows off with his sleeveless scrubs. The Todd also has a large "banana hammock" collection, and is never without one. He has a rule that anyone who stays at his place must "hammock up". Even though he is very immature he is a very skilled surgeon.

Todd also received a Four story atomic wedgey from the Janitor in My Missed Perception after trying to get in a bath with him. This registered a 10 on Sacred Heart's pain chart.

Todd is currently still working as a surgeon, but at New Sacred Heart Hospital since the old one got demolished. He still hangs out with Turk a lot and behaves the same as before. Todd and Turk are as close as they've ever been. But now that JD's gone, the two are no closer. And Todd hasn't changed one iota since.

Relationships

The person Todd gets along with best is Turk. When Turk's daughter was born, The Todd was among those waiting to congratulate him. They are both surgeons, and enjoy being athletic. Also on the surgery team is Dr. Wen, who recognizes Todd's skills as a surgeon because he has the ability to set his mind on one task.

The Todd has the same relationship with all the women of Sacred Heart. He wants them, and they find his jokes and innuendos annoying.

J.D. and The Todd never do too much together, except giving high-fives, although J.D. used to dislike Todd because he always hung out with Turk, which made him jealous. Todd is under the impression J.D. is Turk's second-best friend aside from him.

Todd and Dr. Kelso don't seem to understand each other, and the Janitor thinks Todd is an airhead. Ted and Todd sometimes team up to do various things around the hospital, such as duct taping J.D. to the ceiling.

At one point, he is having a "couples thing" with "the Hendersons", appearing to be in a sexual relationship with both of them. ("My Chief Concern")
