Dr Sydney Heron, played by Kali Rocha, is set to return to Grey’s Anatomy after 17 years.

Heron first appeared in the show’s second season as a replacement for Dr Miranda Bailey.

She last appeared on the show in 2007.

Her character managed Bailey’s surgical interns and clashed with Cristina Yang.

The return of Heron comes as Midori Francis and Jake Borelli are set to leave the show due to rumored budget cuts.

Grey’s Anatomy season 21 premieres on September 26 on ABC.
