STAMOS USES REAL LIFE TRAUMA AS RESEARCH
New ER star JOHN STAMOS took research for his role a little too far when his mother was rushed to the emergency room after a house fire.
The 43-year-old joined the cast of the popular US medical drama last year (06) as paramedic-turned-intern TONY GATES, and had been unable to gain access to a real ER room until his mother LORETTA PHILLIPS’ accident.
He tells the New York Daily News, "Obviously, I was very concerned about her, but I was also interested to see a real ER.
"I’d been trying to get access to one, but you really can’t because of patient confidentiality."
