costume. They often talk to their patients in misleading and confusing ways ways, making them believe they are sick, even though they aren't, or sicker than they really are.

They might give {{Post Treatment Lollipop}}s to even adult patients.

Might overlap with BunnyEarsLawyer, DrFeelgood and {{Cloudcuckoolander}}. If this character's quirkiness is taken to the extreme with maliciousness, see MadDoctor.
