Actor Bob Odenkirk, best known for his role as Saul Goodman on Breaking Bad and its spin-off Better Call Saul, reflected on his"cranky conservative" medical doctor's warnings about his health.
“When I was 50, I went in, he was a heart doctor, Cedar-Sinai, and he had signs up all around his office at this point [saying]: ‘We do not accept Obamacare,’ and I hated this side of him that I only learned over time,” he said to podcast host Tig Notaro.His longtime doctor had warned him that he needed to take a drug to lower his cholesterol.The doctor, whom he had been seeing for 20 years, continued to strongly encourage him to take the pills.
The 60-year-old Hollywood star received other doctor's opinions discouraging him from taking the medication.The actor then collapsed in July 2021 while on the set of Better Call Saul. “And I had a heart attack. And I think the first doctor was right,” the actor said. “The cranky conservative jack*ss was right because he was a good doctor. His political point of view doesn’t have anything to do with his ability to judge your health and your health choices and needs.”
