2 heart for sure. Buried suuuper deep down. Kelso: I've been watching you for 20 years, champ. Your joy comes from being needed. Also, when he gets lonely when Jordan is away from him a little longer than expected in season 7, he literally just trawls the hospital for people to help: (uncomfortably, but sincerely) "does anyone need any help?". The guy even tries to give Ted a hand. And on his day off, no less. Definitely not a 3 heart: Despite enjoying success when it came his way, he never cared about achievement. Maybe a 3 wing on his heart, but that's debatable.

Biography

Dr. Percival Ulysses "Perry" Cox, M.D. is the Chief of Medicine and Attending Physician at New Sacred Heart Hospital. He is also currently teaching at Winston University. Dr. Cox worked at Sacred Heart Hospital for many years and educated many interns and residents through his tough-love style. He quickly became J.D.'s reluctant mentor, although he didn't permit use of the term. He is the sarcastic, bitter mentor of John Dorian. Cox routinely rants at and belittles J.D., though his apparently rough treatment of him is intended as conditioning for the rigors and horrors of hospital life, as well as an outlet for Dr. Cox's frustration in his personal life. He is secretly proud of J.D. and thinks he has the potential to become an incredible doctor. He was promoted to Chief of Medicine after Bob Kelso recommended him for the job. When he realized he likes hating people and everybody already hated him, he was fine with accepting the job. He occasionally forgets to do things.
