GREY’S ANATOMY ACTOR STEVEN W. BAILEY DISCLOSES DIAGNOSIS OF RARE GENETIC DISORDER. (PHOTO).



Grey’s Anatomy actor Steven W. Bailey discloses diagnosis of rare genetic disorder


Steven W. Bailey, a veteran character actor recognized for his role as bartender Joe on “Grey’s Anatomy” and appearances on shows like “Modern Family,” “Chicago Fire,” and “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” has revealed that he has been living with a rare genetic disorder for years.

In a thread posted to X on Jan. 2, Bailey disclosed that he has congenital myasthenia syndrome, a neuromuscular condition that causes muscle weakness and fatigue. Bailey explained that the disorder has significantly shaped his life and career, but he kept it private for more than five years out of caution and uncertainty. “Time to stop,” he wrote, calling the post an open letter to the public.

Congenital myasthenic syndromes are caused by genetic changes that disrupt communication between nerves and muscles, leading to weakness that worsens with activity. Commonly affected muscles include those controlling the eyes, eyelids, and those involved in chewing and swallowing, though severity varies depending on the specific genetic mutation.

Bailey shared that the disorder has increasingly affected his mobility, making his hands, arms, and legs tire more quickly and making walking more difficult. He noted that he is now relying more on a powered wheelchair. “Professionally, this is changing me as an actor,” he said, adding that future roles will likely accommodate his use of a wheelchair.

Despite the challenges, Bailey said he is ready to continue his career openly. “Same guy. Same actor. Same artist. Now with wheels,” he wrote, expressing hope that there is still room for him in the entertainment industry. His most recent screen appearance was in the film “Swiped,” starring Lily James.

Bailey’s public disclosure comes after fellow “Grey’s Anatomy” actor Eric Dane revealed last year that he is living with ALS. Dane has said he plans to continue acting, though his future roles will likely reflect his condition.
