Story
- "[Season Nine] focuses on the unique point of view of Dr. John "J.D." Dorian (Zach Braff). Having left the hospital temporarily for a job at another hospital, he returns to Sacred Heart to teach med school. Together with Drs. Turk (Donald Faison), Cox (John C. McGinley), Kelso (Ken Jenkins) and intern Denise (Eliza Coupe), he is now professor to a class of brand new medical students Lucy (Kerry Bishé), Drew (Michael Mosley) and Cole (Dave Franco) while continuing his romance with the beautiful but socially awkward Dr. Elliot Reid (Sarah Chalke). " ABCMedianet.com
- "Sacred Heart won't go away altogether. Although J.D.'s old stomping ground no longer will serve as the show's base of operations, the students will occasionally rotate through its halls -- and bump into many of its familiar faces. Med students in their first three years have to spend anywhere from 10 to 50 percent of their time at a hospital, and that's when you'll see some of the [original cast members]. Continuity-wise, Sacred Heart will still exist with those people still working there." ausiellofiles.ew.com

Trivia
- Bill Lawrence has also said that the old hospital set has been demolished and a new Sacred Heart has been built. They will explain this in the show that the old hospital was too old to function so they tore it down and built a state-of-the-art hospital on a med school campus. Because the hospital ran out of money, some hallways and doors will lead to nowhere. [17]
- Bill Lawrence also explained that Zach Braff's appearance in Season Nine will not be because of Sacred Heart, but because St. Vincent's requires J.D. to get more teaching accreditation.
- Sam Lloyd's farewell will be written into the show and he will appear in Season 9 for that. [18]
- Judy Reyes won't be in Season nine. [19]
- The titles of the episodes from this season on will begin with "Our" instead of "My".
- Scrubs will be getting a new title sequence [20]
- Sacred Heart has a new logo. [21]
