Theodore "Ted" Buckland, Esq. was the lawyer of New Sacred Heart until he left to spend time travelling and with his ex girlfriend Stephanie Gooch. He now spends his time in Hawaii playing guitar and has the ability to turn any song into sounding sad after his ex girlfriend 'The Gooch' broke his heart. He was the legal department of the hospital for many years, during which he served as a better punching bag to Dr. Kelso than an attorney. The rest of the staff didn't dislike him as much as Kelso, except when he made their job more difficult.

He has clammy hands, a sweaty brow, and a bald head; which are all targets of insults tossed in his direction. Because his life was so depressing, he often thought about killing himself but never mustered the guts. Eventually he became a member of the Brain Trust, but his ineptitude as a lawyer never changed. He is also a member of the A Capella band The Worthless Peons.

Ted is portrayed by Sam Lloyd and has appeared in 93 episodes of the series over all nine seasons. He appeared in the pilot, and his last appearance in Scrubs was "Our Histories". He later appeared in the Cougar Town episodes "Something Good Coming" and "A One Story Town".
