Group Effort
The entire hospital got in on this joke. How fitting for a maternity ward!
Funny Sink
This fertility clinic makes a joke with sink design in the shape of a sperm. Certainly its a place that can use some comedy.
Friendly Reminder
This is a silly but effective way to gently remind patients of their age and need for additional preventative health measures. A little humor never hurt.
Mother of Pumpkins
We imagine pregnant women might feel they are holding an entire pumpkin in their abdomens. This pumpkin surely put a smile on many a face in the maternity ward.
Stop Overusing Antibiotics
This doctor does a fine job of injecting pop culture into medical advice. Batman knows best!
A Game of Operation before Operation
This doctor went to extraordinary lengths to help this little girl feel calm and happy before her surgery by indulging in a game of operation. It was complete with masks and hairnets for the girl and her Dora dall.
Hip to Hip
This gentleman uses humor by adding his own hip bone to a walking stick after his hip replacement surgery. It’s still helping him walk!
A Stool Sample
We hope this patient wasn’t expecting to pass an actual stool. Still, A for comic relief!
OBGYN Pen
This doctor has supplies which reflect its work, right down to a pen with eggs and sperm. At least they know how to have fun!
Smile!
This shot was taken while the man was under anesthesia before getting his wisdom teeth removed. His coworker came supplied with pliers as if he were going to do the job himself! We wonder if everyone looks like this when they’re under anesthesia…
I’m the Doctor
This geeky poster deserves a chuckle. We like the “You Will Obey and Wash Your Hands” sign on the counter even more.
Go Home and Enjoy Your Nuts
Dr. Waguespack sends his vasectomy patients home with a clever package of nuts. We’ll take this over a lollipop any day.
Don’t Look There
If you get rushed to the ambulance, first responders look for medical ID bracelets which may be used for safety purposes. We’re sure many male patients especially appreciate this bracelet.
Don’t Listen to Just Anything
We’ve all seen the kind of commercials touted as curing any and all general ailments. This doctor wishes to put patients in their place gently and with humor when they come with self-diagnosis and suggestions of medication they don’t truly understand. Well said, Doc!
Patience is A Virtue
The ER is not a fun place and can be stressful due to long wait times. This is an interesting change of perspective.
No One Likes Shots
This appeals to logic while also being slightly humorous. We imagine it is aimed more toward childlike adults who still dread shots.
This Doctor Really Cares
Many waiting rooms have TVs to help distract from the locale and potentially endless wait times. This doctor doesn’t make it so easy and encourages patients to do something more healthy for their brains.
No More WebMD
We imagine is frustrating for doctors to have to sort through our misconceptions and self-diagnoses based on internet “facts”. This doctor sets it straight.
Why We Hate The Dentist
This Dentist makes light of how folks don’t really enjoy dentist visits. Even routine maintenance cleanings can feel more painful than helpful.
Anti Body Shaming
Getting weighed at the doctor’s office is never really fun. This doctor makes light of the situation with a clever quoten framed by the scale reader.
Leave The Internet Away From Your Health
Yet another doctor makes light of the frustration from internet-based health misconceptions. Right on.
Dr. Eccentric
This doctor knows how to spice up his routine! We’re certain this makes him more approachable to his patients.
Not The Most Painful Thing Ever
There are certainly things more painful than a trip to the dentist. Certainly, we agree that an episode of Jersey Shore is infinitely worse.
A Punny Dentist
We love how the plaquard is even plaque colored.
Odd Questionaire
An Army medical questionnaire makes light of the paperwork by requesting a rating of the resident’s mustache, if applicable. We’re sure they got a laugh from that.
Festive Gyno Exam
This OBGYN knows how to pull out all the stops for the holidays. Women usually cringe at the sight of a speculum but this Rudolph decorated one make it much less intimidating.
Sleeping With Her Dentist??
This advertisement is shocking on purpose. Going to sleep for an unpleasant dental visit can help patients with severe anxiety or pain intolerance. Clever!
Doctor’s Note
We’re unsure whether this is valid but it’s an interesting recommendation for back pain recovery. Perhaps he needed an explanation for his sexual partner?
Open Up!
This Dentist uses fun cartoon face masks so that you can have a laugh while hes peering into your mouth. We honestly think it may be frightening for children.
A Note FOR the Doctor
This patient overheard their doctor laughing when they went in for surgery. We suppose it’s prudent for the doctor to make a note to self.
Scale of Pain
This doctor’s office gives a helpful reference while considering the pain scale. We agree, Legos are the worst.
The Solution
This doctor understands that many patients can be at their wits’ end when they visit his office. While this medication is unlikely to be proven effective as it claims, the sign certainly is good for a laugh.
Where’s Waldo
This Dentist cleverly provides distraction by putting a Where’s Waldo sheet on the ceiling tile above the patient. At least he has a sense of humor!
New Meaning of Cavity Search
Dr. Jones dental practice in Oklahoma gives passerby a laugh. Let’s hope they mean an oral cavity search!
Make Your Dog Less Nuts
This veterinary practice uses a pun for the benefits of neutering.
Mind Your Kids
Waiting can be boring and frustrating for children. This doctor adresses it in a comical way.
Circle of Life
4,000 years of medicine and this doctor manages to make light of how we’ve come full circle back to natural, holistic healing methods. Well put, Doc!
Over The Top
This installation was actually created by professionals at Colgate. The teeth serve as seats for the waiting are and the rug even looks like a tongue.
Monster Spray
This doctor sweetly created a mock label reading “Monster Spray” when his young patient came in scared of monsters under her bed.
Putting His Best Foot Forward
When patients meet their new prosthetic doctor, they must know they’re in good hands. He must (literally) walk his talk as he’s a prosthesic patient too. Not to mention a little humor!
Dr. Hedgehog
We have to say, this is pretty adorable. Dr. Hedgehog makes going to the doctor seem much more fun!
Put The Phone Down
Doctors could understandably get frustrated by patients constantly on their phones. This doctor helps tear away the distraction with a funny plaque.
Too Much Humor?
This dental practice in Georgia has an eye-catching slogan. It’s cringeworthy and clever at the same time!
I’m A Genius!
Again, stepping on the scale at the doctor isn’t the most fun part of the visit for all. This doctor uses a great joke to lighten the mood.
Deck the Halls
This doctors office has a perfect solution for a mini Christmas tree. How cute!
Look Out, Hypochondriacs
The doctor can raise anxiety in many people but some are true hypochondriacs, always panicking about what may be wrong with their health. This book in the doctor’s office waiting room makes light of a very serious situation for some.
Keeping It Real
This doctor keeps it real by letting everyone know he needs some privacy for lunchtime.
Snip Snip
This vasectomy clinic provides a comical souvenir for its patients.We love that the website is “DrSnip.com”.
A Natural Reaction
This OBGYN makes light of mens’ reaction to their wives giving birth. It’s natural to be freaked out, and this clinic’s patients shouldn’t feel bad!
Meme Pain Chart
The 1 to 10 pain scale can be difficult to gauge. This meme chart shows a nice visual.
FAQ
This Q & A helps pregnant woman know more about the process…or give them a good laugh and put them at ease.
