Meredith Presents the Catherine Fox Award to an Unexpected Winner - Grey's Anatomy

Several surgeons from Grey Sloan Memorial are in the running for the coveted Catherine Fox Award, but Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) announces a much-deserved winner that no one is expecting. Watch 'Grey's Anatomy' THURSDAYS 9/8c on ABC and Stream on Hulu.

I feel like Meredith was the best person to present the award to Bailey. She’s the only original intern/resident Bailey has.

I am crying
Our Bailey finally got the recognition she deserves

[raw]

Whew her reaction is so realistic yet not over the top what a great actress

[adrianajarquin]

Bailey was definitely looking around for Addison 😂

I haven’t watched Grey’s in a few seasons. But I’ll tell ya, Miranda has held it down since the pilot and to see her FINALLY get her recognition feels so satisfying. I cried the whole entire time. And it even proves how much she got passed over that she genuinely had no idea it was her winning it until Meredith said her name

You could see the proudness in webers eyes. Bailey has done her projects before but she was always a general surgeon before anything. This is what he trained her for, and he believed in her the most 🥺

I cried! Bailey deserves all the recognition, and the show has done an amazing job showcasing this health crisis. Good job, Grey’s.

Me at home clapping and crying like I’m one of Bailey’s interns: SHE DID THAT!!

[BlueVampire]

I was crying and instantly got goosebumps. This is so deserved and a great surprise. Miranda had no idea this was happening

[hayleysadler]

I believe it’s only fitting that Meredith presented this award to her since she was baileys intern at the very beginning of Meredith’s medical career.

Finally! Bailey finally gets the respect and recognition she deserves! I've been waiting for this moment forever. Congratulations Bailey! She's long deserved this.

❤❤❤❤❤❤ Bailey finally got the recognition she absolutely deserved! All her hard work and dedication and effort was worth this moment!

Bailey is the only character keeping this show going without Meredith now. what a beautiful tribute

[diannehortonpong]

I teared up when her name was called! Both the Station 19 and Grey's Anatomy season finale shows were excellent! ABC has been bringing it this month!

[rishiheda]

I really thought Addison was gonna show up from somewhere. But hey good for Bailey! I'm happy for her

[lauragraceramos]

Bailey is probably one of the reasons why Grey's has made it to 19 seasons. She has been a constant on the show and her character has always been entertaining, tough yet still human and caring in the end.

[hollywalters]

I feel this would have been a wonderful SERIES finale and a great way to bring MAGIC back, witnessing Bailey get her Fox award while standing on the stage.

[thatsojordy]

Haven't watched the show in YEARS but omg i bawled like a baby! Bailey most def deserved that award!

Well deserved Bailey help train Yang and Grey. Yang was nominated and Meredith actually won the (Harper Avery later Katherine Fox Award) she deserved one of her own.

[CeltycSparrow]

Congratulations, Dr. Bailey. You absolutely deserve this award. You are a warrior when it comes to being a doctor and I could think of no one better to give you this prestigious award than Meredith.
