Donald Faison explains how that epic commercial with all of those famous TV doctors came to be

By: Gibson Johns

There's one commercial that everyone seems to be talking about these days and, surely, you've seen it, too. The ad in question is for Cigna, and it brings together some of the most famous television doctors history for a hilarious call to action.

Donald Faison of "Scrubs," Patrick Dempsey of "Grey's Anatomy," Alan Alda of "M*A*S*H," Noah Wyle of "ER" and Lisa Edelstein of "House" partnered with the health services organization to spread awareness for the need to get annual check-ups from actual doctors.
