Dr. Neil Roberts is a fictional character on the FOX series, The O.C., played by Michael Nouri.
A plastic surgeon in wealthy Newport Beach, California, Neil is the father of Summer Roberts. He was married to Summer's mother until his daughter was 13 years old, when Summer's mother left for unexplained reasons. This was the same time that Luke had his 13th Birthday Party and Seth had his Bar Mitzvah and Summer had RSVP'd to Seth that she was going to come to his Bar Mitzvah but couldn't due to the family stress of the divorce. No one came to Seth's Bar Mitzvah as they all went to Luke's party.
Scarcely present since the beginning of the series, Neil is seen by the middle of the third season beginning to develop a somewhat cozy friendship with the (effectively) widowed and newly economically-challenged Julie Cooper, as he alludes to an unraveling marriage to Summer's stepmother. Neil and Julie Cooper then developed a romantic relationship. They have engaged. Julie gets addicted to medication pills and is seen by Kaitlin Cooper with ex-wife.
