Biography[]

Fitch is a very physically attractive doctor, but sometimes he can be egotistical and an idiot. He is described as being 'the Golden Boy.' Fitch is constantly missing notifications on his pager, either by not turning it on or forgetting to charge it.

He is generally very likable, although can be naive and egotistical. His calm facade hides a nervous disposition, as discussed with his mother's in S1 where he stated he wanted to change his last name to get out of Home Room at school where he was bullied. Fitch stated he was bullied badly due to his tourettes and OCD.

He continuously flirts with Jackie Peyton much to her annoyance.

Season 1[]

In the first two episodes, he was credited with diagnosing a patient's unlikely aneurysm. In the past he has been known to react to flustering situations with sexual touches. Coop has groped the breasts of Jackie Peyton (twice, almost 3 times), Zoey Barkow, Carrie Roman, elderly patient/sponsor, and Elanor O'Hara. He claims this is a tourettes-like nervous tick, although during a discussion with Eddie, Eddie thinks it is is more Coop being an arse.

At the end of season 1, Coop falls in love with Jackie after she kissed him to get him to be quiet about her having kids. Coop and Jackie were arguing, Grace called having a panic attack and Jackie had to tell Coop it was her kid for him to stop yelling. Coop breaks up with his short lived girlfriend Melissa, stating he is in love with someone else (Jackie).
