Last week, we posted a photo of Sara Ramirez that Shonda Rhimes Tweeted as the cast of Grey's Anatomy returned for their first week of filming the upcoming Season Six.

Today, we're happy to provide you with a similarly Twittered image of the show's leading man, Patrick Dempsey, courtesy of writer and executive producer Krista Vernoff.

Krista posted the photo below, with the caption: "Dear Fans, I am sitting here with Patrick. He says he loves you too. :-)" Aww. How nice of him. Here's the man in action:

Patrick Dempsey looks handsome, even in full surgical gear.

Thanks to marriedmymcdreamy for the heads up on this! Here's hoping that as filming progresses we get to see more fun Tweets from Shonda, Krista et al.
