Cleo Finch
Summary
Cleo Finch is a fictional character from the NBC television series ER. The role was portrayed by Michael Michele from the sixth season episode, "Leave It to Weaver," aired on September 30, 1999, until the eighth season episode, "I'll Be Home for Christmas," aired on December 13, 2001.
Later, in the eighth season, Michele would make a guest appearance in the episode "On the Beach," aired on May 9, 2002.
Dr. Cleo Finch was first introduced at the start of Season 6 as a skilled new pediatric fellow at County. She was portrayed as a hard-working, no-nonsense doctor who often jogged to work. Dr. Finch took over most of the pediatric storylines left void by the departures of George Clooney and Maria Bello (pediatric doctors Doug Ross and Anna Del Amico, respectively) and was portrayed as a generally competent doctor. She had a tough time early in Season 6 when she was distracted by a loud, bratty obnoxious young girl and didn't diagnose the iron poisoning that led to the girl's death. Later on, in “How The Finch Stole Christmas," Cleo separated a young alcoholic patient from his alcoholic mother who fed his addiction during Christmas time. When no surgeons were available to perform a laparotomy on a dying patient in the aftermath of a stabbing in the ER, Dr. Finch performed an emergency thoracotomy in the OR to stabilize the patient until a surgeon could be found. She was at first reprimanded by Dr. Peter Benton, her boyfriend at the time, but he later apologized, blaming the stress of performing surgery on his friend, Dr. John Carter, a victim of the stabbing. Cleo barely responded and looked completely stunned and sorrowful, leading Peter to ask her what was wrong and her to brokenly tell him what had happened to Lucy Knight. She seemed vaguely annoyed that Dr. Carter was welcomed back to County after he went to rehab for his prescription medication addiction between Seasons 6 and 7, and briefly became angered by some issues she felt were racially tinged in Season 7, but neither storyline was maintained for very long.
