Laughter is the Best Medicine: Hilarious and Unexpected Things Seen in Hospitals
The Internet Doctor Dilemma
A sign on a door with a patterned glass background warns patients they’ll be charged extra for annoying the doctor with self-diagnoses from the internet. This reflects the frustration healthcare providers feel when patients come in armed with dubious online medical advice. It’s a light-hearted reminder that consulting Dr. Google isn’t always the best idea.

This funny sign serves as a cheeky nudge to trust the professionals, who’d rather not compete with the web’s endless and often lacking-in-context medical information.
