He is a genius, eccentric who solves mysteries using his intellect and deduction

If you've dealt with real doctors, you know that is high fantasy.

Same way as Holmes is high fantasy to real detectives, what's your point?

It's a TV show, if it wasn't fictional it would be incredibly boring.

The difference being most doctors do that before consultation begins, not during.
At least the guy was honest.
