| Who Plays The Psychiatrist On Chicago Med |
Dr. Daniel Charles: The Therapist with a Side Hustle
The resident shrink of Gaffney Chicago Medical Center is none other than the incredibly talented Oliver Platt. That’s right, the same guy who made you laugh in The Addams Family Values. Who knew that Wednesday’s quirky uncle could be so convincing as a serious doctor?
Platt brings a unique blend of humor and empathy to the role of Dr. Daniel Charles. He's the kind of therapist you'd want to have a beer with (if therapists drank beer, that is). He's dealt with everything from drug addiction to demonic possession (okay, maybe not the last one, but it felt like it sometimes).

- Witty: His dry humor is a breath of fresh air in a show filled with medical jargon and life-or-death situations.
- Compassionate: Despite his tough exterior, Dr. Charles genuinely cares about his patients. He's more than just a shrink; he's a friend.
