And just for good measure, a few others:
A man walks into a doctor’s office with a cucumber up his nose, a carrot in his left ear, and a banana in his right ear. He looks at the doctor and says, “Doc, I don’t feel so good. What’s wrong with me?” The doctor replies, “Well, for starters, you’re not eating properly!”
A doctor and a lawyer were attending a party when the doctor was approached by a man who asked for advice on how to handle his sore throat. The doctor explained what to do and then walked away. Turning to the lawyer, the doctor said, “Can you believe that? He asked me for advice, and I gave it to him. Should I send him a bill?” The lawyer replied, “Absolutely! You should.” The next day, the doctor sent the man a bill. The following day, the doctor received a bill from the lawyer.
A man goes to the doctor and says, “Doctor, I have a terrible memory. I can’t remember anything for more than a few minutes.” The doctor replies, “Hmm, that’s interesting. How long has this been happening?” The man looks puzzled and says, “How long has what been happening?”
A doctor is giving a talk at a local community center about the importance of a healthy diet. As he’s speaking, a member of the audience raises their hand and says, “Doctor, what’s the secret to living a long, healthy life?” The doctor responds, “Eat well, exercise regularly, and avoid arguing with your spouse.” The audience member asks, “Really? Will that make me live longer?” The doctor replies, “No, but it’ll certainly feel like it.”
A man goes to the doctor and says, “Doctor, I think I’m addicted to Twitter.” The doctor looks at him and says, “I’m sorry, I don’t follow you.”
A doctor is giving a lecture on the harmful effects of alcohol. To demonstrate his point, he fills a glass with alcohol and drops a worm into it. The worm dies almost instantly. The doctor turns to the audience and asks, “What does this teach us?” A voice from the back of the room shouts, “If you drink alcohol, you’ll never have worms!”
A woman goes to the doctor and says, “Doctor, I have this terrible problem. Every time I sneeze, I have an intense, uncontrollable orgasm.” The doctor replies, “Well, that’s certainly an unusual problem. Are you taking anything for it?” The woman answers, “Pepper.”
A man goes to the doctor with a piece of lettuce sticking out of his ear. The doctor looks at him and says, “Sir, I’m afraid you have a serious case of salad-ear.” The man, clearly puzzled, replies, “But doctor, that can’t be right. It’s just the tip of the iceberg!”
A doctor and a lawyer are at a party when a woman suddenly collapses. The doctor rushes over to help, and the lawyer follows. As the doctor begins to examine the woman, the lawyer leans in and whispers, “Doctor, do you need any legal assistance in case anything goes wrong?” The doctor glares at him and replies, “No, I think I can handle this. But just out of curiosity, when you’re in court, do you ever ask for medical help?”
And what would a joke list be without a fart joke…
A man goes to the doctor and complains, “Doc, I’ve got a really embarrassing problem. I can’t stop passing gas, but the good news is that they’re completely silent and odorless. In fact, I’ve done it five times since I’ve been in your office, and you haven’t noticed a thing.” The doctor listens carefully, then writes out a prescription and hands it to the man. “Take these pills three times a day for a week and come back to see me.” A week later, the man returns to the doctor, looking irritated. “Doc, I don’t know what you gave me, but my problem is worse now! My gas is still silent, but it smells terrible!” The doctor nods and says, “Great, that means the pills are working. Now that we’ve cleared up your sinuses, let’s work on your hearing.”
