I got a new Dr today and his name is Dr. Bowel. And yes, the appointment was for gastrointestinal issues. That guy saw a chance in life and took it.

An old doctor I saw years ago was Dr. Payne, he was treating my broken foot which was very painful.

I'm torn between my desire to suggest a portmanteau in all possible situations (Blandscaping) and the fact that this would be an even worse name
