Sharon Goodwin (S. Epatha Merkerson, "Law & Order"), the Chief Administrator
of Clinical Operations of Chicago Med, expects the very best from her people as she
balances the tremendous pressures of running the city's largest hospital, and always with a
sense of humanity that allows her doctors to provide the very best care possible.

Quotes
A girl has to almost die for this hospital to realize that it's actually here to treat patients?

Connor: Is every day like this?
Sharon: Some days, we're busy.

Will: I'm sorry I've been so much trouble.
Sharon: Yes, Dr. Halstead. You have been a monumental pain in the ass.

You know, when I'm faced with a snarling dog, I try to remind myself it's self-preservation
that's making him show his teeth.

You know there are, maybe, 17 different agencies ready to jump in when they suspect
abuse. But who jumps in to help when it's a single mother who's struggling?

Sharon [about Downey]: When he realized the seriousness of his condition, he decided to
find someone he could teach. Someone who had the ability to do what he does.
Connor: So what do I have that all the other surgeons in this place don't?
Sharon: He saw something. You'll have to ask him when he wakes up.

[to Will] This is not about you. This about *her* and what *she* wanted.
