This episode has one of my favorite bits of dialogue from the first season:
"Who asked you to play God?"
"Every damn patient who comes through that door, that's who! People come to doctors because they want us to be gods. They want us to make it better--or make it not so. They want to be healed and they come to me when their prayers aren't enough. Well, if I have to take the responsibility, then I claim the authority too. I did good. And we both know it. And no one is going to take that away."
