Brian Dietzen's Courageous Health Update Sparks Wave of Support from NCIS Fans
You know, it's not every day we get a glimpse into the personal lives of our favorite stars beyond what we see on screen—but Brian Dietzen, the man who brings the lovable and dedicated Dr. Jimmy Palmer to life on NCIS , recently opened up in a very real and relatable way. And honestly, fans can’t stop cheering him on.
During the current production break between seasons, Brian shared that he's been taking time to focus on his health—a decision many of us might put off until we absolutely have to. The 47-year-old actor revealed on social media that he underwent multiple procedures to repair injuries in his arm and shoulder. And we’re not talking about something minor—he listed off labrum repair, bicep tendon repair, biceps repair, and a calcified rotator cuff cleanup. Yep, it was a full-on shoulder overhaul!

With his signature charm and wit, Brian posted a selfie in a sling, joking, “Soooo ready for summer in this stylish sling!” But even in that lighthearted tone, there was a deep sense of gratitude. He took a moment to thank the skilled doctors who helped him through the process and also gave a shoutout to SAG-AFTRA healthcare for covering the treatment. He added, “Been needing this for some time, and glad I have the opportunity during hiatus.”
And of course, fans immediately flooded his comment section with support. Messages like, “Take care of yourself Brian, we need Jimmy back in one piece,” and “Sending you all the healing thoughts for a speedy recovery my dear friend!!” are just a small glimpse of the love he’s been receiving. One fan even joked, “Woah! You’ll be bionic when you get back on the course.”
But it’s not just Brian’s health journey making headlines—he also teased fans with what might lie ahead for Dr. Jimmy Palmer when NCIS returns for its 23rd season this fall. In a recent interview, he opened up about Jimmy’s romantic future, especially with Katrina Law’s character, Jessica Knight. While he didn’t give anything away, he hinted at emotional complexities and “more awkward moments” between the two, leaving fans buzzing with anticipation.
All in all, it’s touching to see such transparency from a beloved actor. Brian's choice to use this downtime not just for physical recovery, but to connect authentically with his fans, speaks volumes. We’re all rooting for a full recovery—and can’t wait to see him back, better than ever, when NCIS hits our screens again.
