It’s time for another Married to Medicine recap! If you missed last week’s Married To Medicine recap, click the link to get caught up. It will explain why Toya and Simone are all the way over Quad at this point. This episode starts with Contessa and Scott arguing over the kids’ bad behavior. So of course, Contessa is planning a huge birthday party for her daughter. She wants a full carnival. Clearly she thinks a lavish party will make up for her absence. That’s TOTALLY how it works. It’s going to run her between $10-15,000 for this guilt-party. I’m too poor (and sensible) to fathom this sort of party.
Blind Date
Heavenly is setting Quad up with a couple of her friends. In typical Heavenly fashion, this will be a shit show, especially since Heavenly is going on the dates. Dr. Henry (date #1) arrives at the restaurant with flowers. He’s a dentist. Quad is not attracted to him. Heavenly starts interrogating him about his credit score. Who does that? He doesn’t know his credit score. He also has a onw year old child that the baby mamma won’t let him see. NEXT!

Well, well, well. Doesn’t Heavenly just have them lining up for Quad! Date #2 arrives while Quad is stuck talking to Date #1. Heavenly brings over Date #2 right over to the table. Quad is super uncomfortable so she goes to hide in the bathroom.
Then, Date #1 gets up and walks right into the ladies room. He then proceeds to ask all the other ladies to leave! Who does that? Heavenly comes in to see what is going on. Date #1 bids Quad goodnight with a hug. Then Quad goes back out to chat with Date#2 whose income and credit score Heavenly has prequalified. Heavenly tells him his time is up and to pay the check on his way out. Quad is over it. She’s not interested in either one. It’s like a bad dating show that goes horribly wrong. I am flat out dying here. Say what you want about Heavenly, this is entertaining AF.
Check Yo’ Breasts
Buffie goes to see Simone at her office. Buffie has had a lump near her breast for the past 6 months. Her family has a history of cancer, so Buffie is terrified. Simone thinks it’s just tissue but Buffie will get a diagnostic mammogram to make sure it’s not a tumor. This is a great reminder for all you lovely readers to check your breasts for lumps and get a mammogram. I will be scheduling mine tomorrow.

Later, Simone accompanies Buffie to her mammogram. Buffie is scared, Oh this is sad: Buffie explains how she and David wanted to have kids but were unable. They tried IVF and other ways but nothing worked. She’s crying real tears while telling us, which has me crying real tears watching. Her mammogram came back with no breast cancer thankfully. They will recheck her in 3 months because of the tissue. We’ve all been on the fence about Buffie, but this scene has made me like her. She was raw and genuine. My heart goes out to her.
Big Over The Top Circus
Jackie and Curtis are at the site of Jackie’s new office. She needs more space as her practice has exploded. Curtis is retired so he is overseeing this project.
Meanwhile, Contessa is preparing for the Carnival of the century. She is freaking out, yelling directions at Scott. I’m scared. This is stressing me out. Heavenly arrives to bring some levity. Kids have fun, though they would have had fun with just the beautiful pool and cake. It’s over the top chaos with a jillion kids running around. I live in a zoo and this is stressing me out. I am also keeping up my Patriots who are stressing me out as well. Too. Much. Stress.

Scott is talking to Cecil about Contessa as she talks to Heavenly about Scott. Contessa wants to see a counselor. Scott isn’t on board with a counselor. Contessa doesn’t feel like there is intimacy in their marriage. With Scott acting clueless about their issues, I can see how Contessa would get frustrated with that. The cake comes out and Scott literally kicks Contessa in the chest with their kid lol. He picked up Laila and while swinging her around, Laila kicks Contessa straight in the tits. Contessa’s drink got knocked out of her hand but she did keep her composure. Holy shit that was hilarious.
On next week’s Married to Medicine recap: Scott and Contessa go to counseling; Jackie (I cannot believe this just happened!) is on a microphone at what looks like a breast cancer event and calls out Buffie for being infertile IN FRONT OF THE ENTIRE CROWD; the couples and Quad head to Mexico. Thank you all for reading and for the comments. Before I go, I have to give a belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY shoutout to our beloved Cheryl B!! I hope your day was as amazing as you are. Thank you for all of your retweets and your support. See y’all in the comments!
Another great recap. Happy Belated Birthday, Cheryl B! Heavenly’s version of speed dating was one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a long time. I just wish Heavenly would figure out a way to lower the pitch of her voice. My poor dog leaves the room when Heavenly starts talking. I did decide last night that I do like Buffie. I’m going to cut her some slack for the rest of the season, just based on last night’s show.
Terri, I agree. Dr. H laugh is even worst, she sounds like a squeeking mouse. I think Contessa is creating her own chaos. Look how she was running around barking orders.
Hmmmm…SMH…if Dr. Jackie did that to Buffie for real, meaning it was not scripted. She violated HIPAA in the worse way. In fact, if Buffie file a report against her, she might have to think twice about expanding her office.
Whether the upcoming scene is scripted or not, neither qualifies as a HIPAA violation. As a reality show participant describing her infertility, gynecological health as well as filming her appointments & procedures/testing—-Dr. Jackie, Dr. Simone as well as Bravo (and production) are free of any violations.
Buffie had to give her consent in order to film. Most definitely in the form of documentation & the proper patient release forms, but she verbally did as well by willingly filming her ‘saga.’
I know HIPAA very well, and I also know Dr. Jackie. Rest assured, her new practice is thriving.
I thought of you during this episode. I want to go to Dr. Jackie! Except don’t make me an appt because I really don’t want to go to anyone. I’ll find out all my ailments AFTER I expatriate. 🙂 But she seems like a great doctor.
I commend Heavenly trying to hook up Quad with a doctor. But can the guy’s have more personalities and some looks. Date 1 I wouldn’t set up with one of my enemies. I am not a fan of Buffy’s but I really felt bad for her. If she really wants children she should either get a surrogate or adopt. I know that she wants the feeling of pregnancy but she shouldn’t give up her dream of wanting kids.
Last night’s episode was all in all light for a change. Heavenly and Quad w/the dating was hilarious lol Quad is seldom at a loss for words so that was priceless. I was fascinated by that party. The kids would have been happy with hot dogs, cake and squirt guns but is was more the volume of guests that left me gobsmacked! I was relieved to see a life-guard there as it would be near impossible to keep an eye on all those rug rats without help. For me that tops ANY of the parties given on M2M ever lol.
And Heavenly being not so subtle about Quads butt implants hahahahaha Shady mess 😀
Heavenly’s dating service was an epic fail and effing hilarious. Her laugh reminds me of the witch in the Bugs Bunny cartoons. Highly entertaining.
Thanks for the recaps, Kelly! I don’t watch the show anymore but I do enjoy your recaps!
And, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CHERYL B! ???
That birthday party was wayyyyyyu too much. #NotImpressed
And I was proud of Buffie for taping her exam, and being an example of what we ladies need to do to ensure breast health, kudos to her, as that was obviously a difficult appointment for her, especially in light of the fact she might have had cancer.
WTF is wrong with Mariah’s talking head. That woman has to be one of the most miserable humans ever. Is she that miserable in life that she has to knock down everything else around her!!!!!!!!!!! She needs to be cancelled.
Hi PCK, great re cap, thankyou… I also cried when Buffie told her story about trying to conceive, been there. We were lucky the second & third IVF worked for us.
What I can’t get my head around is what Dr Jackie says next week, mind blowing, has to be scripted… Kind regards, Niamh
I’m probably in the minority here but I think they spent too much time on Heavenly and Quad. It was such a scripted set-up. Neither are my favorites so there’s that, lol. Most of the ladies are not dealing with Quad and it this just seemed like a lame attempt to keep her on the show. I hope this is her last season.
I was just hoping we’d get to see more of the real Buffie and Bravo delivered. As brash as Simone can be, she’s a very caring doctor. Buffie is very pretty too – naturally pretty. I’m glad they showed this side of Buffie.
I thought Contessa said she missed all three of her kids’ birthdays… Anyway Contessa’s recent behavior isn’t a good look for her. Her issues with her husband seem real and serious (and not exaggerated like editing seems to do).
Thanks for the recap! I always enjoy them!
Agreed. The only reason I believe Quad films with Heavnly is for screen time otherwise who is she really talking too. The dating scene was very scripted and predictable. Contessa is probably feeling herself too much… now that she have a lil following and maybe thinks her marriage is boring.. that happens situations makes us grow apart. Sometimes men need attention and appreciation. They are less vocal about it…
Heavenly’s match making attempts were typically messy, but entertaining. Heavenly announcing to all that Quad has a fake derrière put their friendship into perspective and I see them falling out before the season ends. Scott accidentally swinging Laila who kicked Contessa in the chest seemed to be a metaphor for the current state of their marriage. I’ve never understood why successful, professional women like Jackie would agree to feature on a reality show for Bravo. It seems as if Jackie is facing her fiercest professional criticism yet, with the Mariah drug testing and now Buffie’s infertility, and Bravo production will be loving it !
Correct me if I am wrong here, because I don’t follow this show that closely, but didn’t Contessa say that the reason she was getting her degree out of state was because it was CHEAPER? Then she comes home and puts on the ginormous expensive party? This makes no sense.
She said it was cheaper and was a 1 year course instead of 2 years, but that party was such a waste of money.
Yes and after all the sacrifice and turmoil caused by moving out of state and paying for separate living expenses she wasted more money by failing to complete the course with only 2 months left, which is bizarre. Also , I have no idea about nanny’s fees but surely for at least the 2 months left when she and Scott were really struggling over her absence the money wasted on the tacky party could have been better spent hiring a nanny
I agree with you 100%, Hibsj.
