Is Steven Weber leaving ‘Chicago Med’?

In Chicago Med season 10, Dr. Dean Archer (played by Steven Weber) is facing a turbulent time, especially after being named co-chief of the Emergency Department alongside Dr. Caitlin Lenox. While Archer’s experience and mentorship made him a strong candidate for the role, his relationship with Lenox quickly becomes strained. Their first major disagreement arises over the treatment of a teenage patient, Jordan, who suffers a brain injury. Archer advocates for a less invasive approach, while Lenox pushes for surgery. Unfortunately, Jordan’s death after surgery sets off a chain of events, and Archer, dissatisfied with the outcome, voices his concerns to Sharon Goodwin, the hospital’s chief administrator.

As a result of the investigation, Goodwin decides to make Lenox the sole chief of the E.D., demoting Archer back to his previous role as an attending physician. This shift has fans wondering about Dr. Archer’s future at Gaffney Medical Center, with some speculating that this could signal the end of his time on the show. Although there is no official confirmation yet about Steven Weber’s departure, Chicago Med has seen several characters leave in the past, so the possibility of Archer’s exit remains on the table.

For now, Dr. Archer’s storyline remains unresolved. Will he adapt to the new leadership structure, or will he decide it’s time to move on? Only time will tell as the season progresses, but his arc in season 10 promises to be one of the show’s most compelling.
