Jamie-Lynn Sigler (The Sopranos, Big Sky) has landed a guest-starring role on ABC's hit medical drama "Grey’s Anatomy".
Appearing in the Jan. 15 episode, “Heavy on Me,” Sigler will play Dr. Laura Kaplan, a urologist living with Multiple Sclerosis, who visits Grey Sloan at the request of Catherine Fox (Debbie Allen) and offers Richard (James Pickens Jr.) a unique perspective on his case.
The role was created for Sigler, who has lived with MS for more than two decades and marks her return to television after a three-year break. I hear it was important to the show’s producers and to Sigler that the character is not defined by their affliction and has a full life and a career.
