Dr. Zoidberg is a fully-qualified medical doctor, though, and a good one at that. Just not for humans. Even so, he's quite good, given that he hasn't killed any of his human patients, though they may come out a little different.

As is Doctor Who, who has high qualifications in literally everything. It took them a few goes, but they got there in the end.

No Dr. House?

And Oz should be right on top of the Run For Your Life because he’s not fictional and should know better.

[-] eighty@lemmy.one 30 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Doctor House would be top right but partly because you wouldn't need to run very far.

Dr. Oz and Dr. Phil have done far more harm than Dr. Pepper could ever aspire to.

Right? This is an invalid graph without Dr. House.

Somewhere between top-right and top-middle depending on how revoked his license is at the given moment and how much vicodin he is on.

[-] superkret@feddit.org 21 points 4 days ago

Top right, about 20 feet outside the graph.

Dr. Evil didn't spend 6 years in evil fricking medical school to be put in no professional training

How in the heckin' is JD below a dwarf, a mad scientist tinkerer, and a random catchy band?

He is a caring, trained, and competent doctor who will put his pride and personal life aside to help a patient.

[-] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 37 points 4 days ago

At some points he's arguably the best diagnostician at Sacred Heard.

Doctor Evil didn't go to Evil Medical School for six years to be put in the section with no training, thank you very much!

[-] FMT99@lemmy.world 84 points 4 days ago

6 years of evil medical school doesn't qualify as professional credentials? Also I'd put Dr. Phil below most of these guys, although maybe slightly above Hannibal Lector still.

[-] dojan@lemmy.world 49 points 4 days ago

I trust Doctor Pepper more than Phil.

Why is Doctor Strange to the left of JD from Scrubs? Isn't he a world renown surgeon or something? Does that count for less because he hasn't had medical practice lately?

Top right corner, there's a Collage Humor watermark.

It explains why this is so inaccurate

I would trust J.D. with my life way over Dr. Seuss.

J.D. is a fool, but he's also a really good doctor.

I'd gladly trust drinking a Dr pepper over anything to do with Dr Phil or Dr oz

Dr. Who and Dr. Strange both have a shitload of training...

Oh yeah, Dr. Strange was literally one of the world's best surgeons, right?

  1. Dr. Phil has training that's a shock?
  2. Bro I'd trust Dr. Pepper more than a lot of people on this list
[-] FuryMaker@lemmy.world 17 points 3 days ago

I feel like Zoidberg should be a lot lower.

Excuse me! Dr Pepper should be an absolute top left corner candidate.

How are Oz and Phil so high on this spectrum?

[-] Stern@lemmy.world 39 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

For reference on the no training side:

Dr. Dre and Dr. Venture: Both possess honorary doctorates. The former from UCLA, the latter from a Tijuana community college.
Dr. Pepper: Charles T. Pepper did have a medical doctorate. He is cited as a possible source of the name.
Dr. Evil: Evil medical school.
Zoidberg: Claims he lost it in a volcano, more likely a art history degree.
Dr. Horrible: Likely physics though he claims Horribleness (though it could be a catchphrase.)
Dr. Seuss: Intended to get a Doctorate of Philosophy, got an honorary doctorate of Humane Letters.
The Doctor: Per This - While pretending to be the Doctor in an effort to save herself from an army of Cybermen, one of the planet’s deadliest enemies, in Death in Heaven, Clara said: ‘I don’t even really have a doctorate. Well Glasgow University, but then I accidentally graduated in the wrong century.’
Doc: Does become a doctor at Storybrooke hospital in a live action show, "Once Upon a Time", apparently not a surgeon though.
Spin Doctors: No doctors.

I feel like a fair amount of those on the trained side aren't medical doctors (Phil, Ock, Robotnik, Lector, Honeydew) or at the very least, aren't folks you'd want around for your heart attack.

[-] Skua@kbin.earth 41 points 4 days ago

Dr Strange being a professional surgeon and barely making it past the neutral mark on the qualification axis seems, well, a bit strange

There is no way Dr. Mario has any training. He just throws random pills at the problems hoping that they line up and do something other than cause an overdose.

Some unsolicited comments on this:

  • I would absolutely trade Dr. Bunsen Honeydew with Dr. Mario.
  • The Dr. Pepper position is just pure slander.
  • Dr. Horrible and Doogie Howser, MD is the true duality of humanity.
  • Zoidberg is suspiciously much higher along the Y-axis than I would personally prefer.
  • Dr. Dre, like I would forget, is absolutely a quadrant II candidate. There's just no way I'd put Spin Doctors high along the Y-axis than Dre.
[-] WolfLink@sh.itjust.works 32 points 4 days ago

Dr. Strange is a fully trained surgeon. He should be farther to the right!

[-] Agrivar@lemmy.world 33 points 4 days ago

Not just fully trained, but at the top of his field and possessing an MD and a PhD! He should be at the far right edge!

Having The Doctor at the top is a little strange, because hanging with the doctor could very well mean your death, but it will be worth it.

The more anyone looks at this, the worse it gets.

Someone needs to fix this. But not me, I don't have my doctorate in memeology yet.

I should trust Zoidberg more than Dr. Phil?

[-] CheeseNoodle@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

Technically zoidberg should be further right on the training axis than everyone else on it combined, He's literally the best doctor in the universe for every single species other than humans.

Dr. Robotnik is more trustworthy than Phil tbh, but I suppose context matters.

Nonsense! Zoidberg's a fine physician. For Aliens. Your mistake is being human!
