We all know that doctors, like the rest of humanity, come in all shapes, sizes, and personalities. Some of them are great at talking to patients and putting them at ease, others are always in a cranky rush, and still others fall anywhere in between.
Doctors who know how to make people feel good in those most vulnerable moments are worth their weight in gold, and these 16 (for humans and pets) have really gone the extra mile.
16. I’m no scientist…
But this seems like it’s true.

15. Talk about going the extra mile.
This is so incredibly thoughtful AND helpful.

13. Just throwing down a bit of history here.
Take it or leave it, I guess.
12. How could you choose which to throw away?
Might as well keep them all!
My doctor has a kept all the pictures kids have drawn of him.

11. This 100% made me snort.
Everyone knows humor puts people at ease!
Had to get my blood drawn today. This was on the wall at the lab.

10. See, this is very helpful.
Because numbers are so abstract when it comes to rating pain!

9. You’ve gotta do what you can for kids.
That’s just an unspoken rule.
8. But the lollipop is a nice perk.
Just ask any kid anywhere.

7. Now I want the tooth fairy to be a mouse in my house.
How adorable is that?
In Spanish-speaking countries, the tooth fairy is a mouse (Ratoncito Pérez). This is my dentist office.

6. I cannot with this picture.
That little baby can be in my operating room any day.
5. Anything less would be a missed opportunity.
And no one likes to have those.
4. I bet doctors are ready to tattoo this on their foreheads.
It’s been a long three years.

3. You know they love your pets.
But it’s really nice to see that in action sometimes.
2. Snuggles are the best medicine.
For the person and the pet.
We really take post op care seriously at my job. Cuddles is the best medicine…

1. Just a little bit of perspective.
We can all use the reminder sometimes.
Hospital T-Rex has a reminder for you.
