The cast of “Doc” pursued various career paths after the show ended, with some continuing to act, others stepping away from the spotlight, and a few passing away.
“Doc” was a medical drama series that aired from 2001 to 2004, starring Billy Ray Cyrus as Dr. Clint “Doc” Cassidy. After the show’s conclusion, the cast members took different directions in their careers and personal lives.
Billy Ray Cyrus, who played the titular character, continued his dual career in acting and music. He appeared in several TV shows, including Disney Channel’s “Hannah Montana” alongside his daughter Miley Cyrus, and released new music albums.
Andrea C. Robinson, who portrayed Nurse Nancy Nichol, stepped back from acting and focused on her family and other interests. She has kept a low profile since the show ended.
Derek McGrath, who played Dr. Derek Hebert, continued his acting career with roles in TV series and movies. He has been seen in productions like “Little Mosque on the Prairie” and “My Babysitter’s a Vampire.”
Richard Leacock, who played Officer Nate Jackson, also continued acting, appearing in various television shows and movies, including “Kevin Hill” and “Suits.”
Ruth Marshall, who played Donna Dewitt, pursued acting in film and television, with credits in shows like “Degrassi: The Next Generation” and “Working Moms.”
Unfortunately, some cast members have passed away since the show ended. Ron Lea, who played Dr. Oliver Crane, continued his acting career until his passing. His work included roles in “The Strain” and “This Life.”
The rest of the cast members have had a mix of public and private lives, with some continuing to act in various capacities, while others have taken on different professions or retired from acting altogether.
