Patrick “McDreamy” Dempsey saw himself as a dab hand at fatherhood when his twin boys arrived.

Dempsey, the star surgeon of Grey’s Anatomy, already had a daughter, Talula Fyfe. But when Darby Galen and Sullivan Patrick, now 3, arrived, he found he was in for an altogether different ride.

“Boys are completely different than girls for obvious reasons, but physically they’re so much more active. You cannot turn your back [because] there’s always an injury, there’s always something going on,” he said on Jimmy Kimmel Live!

Dempsey even found himself in the emergency room when one of the boys broke his arm in an impromptu dining room table dance party. When he got to the ER, he was met with surprise. “I say, ‘I got it, just show me the [operating room] and I got it. There’s a look of amusement and then dismissal, ‘You sit out there…’”

He jokingly added that he brings bits and pieces home from the show for life’s little medical emergencies.

“I get a lot of equipment from Grey’s, so I have my own OR, which is really nice. I do a lot of brain surgery on them – experimentation.”
