A Twitter user quoted the tweet, “Anyway, guys chill, Dra. Analyn actually got reprimanded badly in a later scene for bypassing protocol.
“Other scenes show na the appendicitis impression was not made just with a single poke in the RLQ. And yes her seniors doubted her impression dahil they actually had other ddx,” yesnothatthis said.
On October 3, Madridejos replied to the tweet, saying they made consultations before their taping.
“Hi guys. Yup. May mga full episodes tayo na nakaupload sa YT ng GMA. Rest assured, may mga consultants during the take and meron ding nag aapprove bago i-air. Though open kami sa suggestions, kung paano maiimprove ang shows. Salamat. [smiling face emoji].”

The show has received many reactions and comments from medical practitioners, saying what they depicted on the screen differs from real-life scenarios.
“Wag tularan, di po ganito ang proseso,” physician Gia Sison said.

“This sends out a wrong message to the viewers on how the medical field specifically, hospital, ER, and OR settings work. Will not go into the specific details on differentials, diagnosis, and management but The Art and Science of Medicine have both been gravely compromised,” physician Harold Henrison Chiu posted.
