To become a doctor you have to spend four years of your life in medical studies, then 3 to 7 more in residency, before finally getting your license. To endure this much of student life, you either have to be really determined, a little bit coo-coo, or have a dark sense of humor to numb the stress that comes with being a soon-to-be doctor.

With so many years spent pursuing a career, many funny stories and medical jokes are bound to be accumulated. And since people say that laughter is the best medicine, we have compiled a list of the best doctor memes from all around the internet. And who among us hasn’t had a memorable visit to the doctor? You get poked, prodded and asked some pretty bizarre and invasive questions.

Well, what happens when you combine these uncomfortable stories with the less than memorable faces on stock photos? Hilariously funny memes. Yes, our collection of photos below will have you chuckling from the waiting room to the exam room. From horrifyingly expensive doctor’s visits to awkward questions, it's all there. Scroll down below to see the comedic side of all the things about going to the hospital you never thought could be funny. There's also a good chance, that if you yourself are a doctor, you'll find these funny memes about work very relatable.

    I just finished an EMT class. One of the things we learned is that ambulances handle like big, top-heavy box trucks with terrible suspensions that are filled with fragile things like EMTs and patients. And rolling your ambulance over is negatively correlated with patient outcome. The things handle terribly, have no visibility, and are driven pretty much constantly. Also, most other drivers seem unable to see giant box trucks with flashing lights and sirens on them, and most EMT fatalities happen when you're going through a red light with lights and sirens on and someone fails to notice that fact and T-bones you. Most NON-fatal career-ending injuries happen when you lift with your back instead of your legs.
