As a film enthusiast with a keen eye for detail and a heart that beats for authenticity, I must say that the set of St. Denis Medical is nothing short of a marvel. With my years of watching shows and movies, I can confidently say that this production team has outdone themselves in creating an environment so immersive, it feels like walking into a real hospital.


The St. Denis Medical set is nearly authentic, being only two steps short of functioning as a real hospital. At Vulture Festival, the cast and creators revealed that much of the equipment is genuine decommissioned medical gear, and many extras are ex-medical professionals. As co-creator Eric Ledgin put it, “It’s the most cost-effective and straightforward method to give it a hospital feel.” He added, “Walking onto this set gives me the same sensation I had on the Superstore set. It’s an extraordinary yet mundane feeling, like walking into a Target.” Since its premiere, Mekki Leeper has been observing the show’s response on social media. “On TikTok, there are numerous nurses commenting that our stethoscopes appear to be high-end and expensive,” he said. “They’re amazed, exclaiming ‘Oh my God, I saw six in one scene!'” Meanwhile, Allison Tolman chimed in, “We lose them all the time.

The realistic portrayal seen on screen is from the fictional St. Denis Medical show, but it’s unclear who is producing this supposed documentary. Even actor David Alan Grier wonders about it. Creators Ledgin and Justin Spitzer aren’t concerned with answering that question right away. They mention there are many documentaries about hospital life, but they have their own ideas about the film crew: Tolman thinks it might be someone Joyce, the hospital administrator, persuaded for a small fee. Ledgin suggests they can figure out who is making the documentary later on.
