When I was 14, I had surgery on my lip to remove a small benign nerve tumor. The plan, as was explained to me before they put me under, was to go in from the inside of my mouth to avoid any visible scarring, but at some point after I was out that plan apparently went out the window, and I was left with this ugly gash on my lip. And then the tumor came back after a couple of years, so it was all for nothing. As soon as I was out of high school, I grew a beard to cover it up, but it's still noticeable up close.

Colin Baker, easily...wait I think I read the thread title wrong. That was going to be my response, "Colin Baker". Colin Baker, easily...wait I think I read the thread title wrong. This man says you are both wrong!

One idiot who was in rotation at the clinic I used to go to as a child told my mother to use water to clear the wax out of my ears, as I used to have rampant ear infections. He insisted on this even after being told that I have swimmer's ear (which his "advice" would only make worse), and even claimed that he had studied under the ear/nose/throat doctor that I had started seeing at the time, who was awesome and who'd told my mother to use peroxide prior to that. My mother told the ear/nose/throat doctor about it and he basically called the guy an idiot.

A few years ago my wife needed a orthopedic surgeon. Ok, my wife has a lot of anxiety issues so she wanted me to go back with her to talk with the doctor on every appointment, I didn't want to but I did anyways. We never had any problem with the guy but a few days before a follow up appointment we got a call from his office saying that he couldn't see any patients for the foreseeable future. A quick Google search found out why. A bunch of women (like 8) accused him of groping them. We since refer to him as Dr. Cop-A-Feel

Went to an endocrinologist after I had cut processed sugar out of my diet and lost 80lb pounds, said I still felt sluggish and tired, and he said I ate too many apples.

Had a doctor ask me "What does it look like?", while holding scans of an MRI I had got a couple of hours prior, because I woke up nauseated as f***. "What does it look like?" You're the f***in' doctor! You tell me! It was an amazing way to find out I had 2 brain aneurysms that were ready to burst on me. She's in jail now for enabling pillheads and I don't feel sorry for her one bit.

Victor Von Doom.
But really, probably the time I had to talk to a medical assistant, nurse, intern, and then the doctor. Just for a routine checkup.

I had this one Doctor once who hung out in this weird blue phone box That Doctor is the worst. He kept muttering fixed point in time, fixed point in time" when I had food poisoning. I don't even know what that means.
