Fun with doctors' names

I knew a vet named Dr. House with a personality just as charming as the TV dude but unfortunately not so brilliant. He had recommended putting the cat down when his junior partner suggested a check for diabetes. Properly dosed with insulin, the cat lived another 10 years.

I guess Doctor Spaceman (pronounced Spah-CHEH-min) doesn’t qualify here but it cracks me up every time.

My first pediatrician was named Dr. Safe.

When my sister was fighting colon cancer, Dr. Doody was on the team.

I went to a neurologist named Dr. Malatesta.

:eek: Seriously? I’m in NC and I just came in to mention that the OB-Gyn office I go to has a Dr. Beaver and a Dr. Barefoot. As in ‘barefoot and pregnant’ for anyone who missed it.

Local urologist’s name is Dr. Cummings. Why you become a urologist with that name?

We also had a doc on the medical staff named Dr. Beaver.

She was a pediatrician, and did not closely resemble a large aquatic rodent of the genus Castor, although her incisors were rather prominent.

As mentioned once before in a thread of this type, I knew of a couple psychiatrists, Dr. Head and Dr. Bhatti. As well as a nephrologist (kidney specialist) named Dr. Donor.

I don’t remember any details but there was some kind of a clinic in my town that had a Dr. White and a Dr. Wong.

There’s a Dr Hugh Laurie where I work.

I saw one recently with the name, Dr. Sizer. That could be a little intimidating.

There’s a chiropractor in Kerrville, TX named Dr. Bilderback.

My personal favourite is here in Toronto - Dr. Stubbs, who specializes in “penis lengthening surgery and penis girth augmentation” and is (was?) the only doctor in Canada to perform foreskin replacement surgery.
