The Trope picture is most likely about Just A Face And A Caption (EXCEPT THERE ARE MANY FAAACES!!!)
Any other alternatives? I would put the Litchi image, but that would fall for the same fault since it's probably Just A Portrait And A Caption, because who can tell that she is a doctor in that getup? Or do you think it's wrong?
We'll need some image that shows the character doing hospital stuffs... AND looking hot at it. I'll try to gather how many Litchi pictures about her doing hospital stuffs, just so it fits...

I can't really find any male examples of this page, are there any that could be added? Or is it a different trope? Because there's plenty of hot doctors, and there has to be at least one male nurse who makes someone's heart throb.

Actually, working at a hospital for 10 years has shown me that there are lots of sexual activity going on. Just not between patients and nurses/doctors. More like between nurses and nurses - or nurses and doctors. Couple of days ago two paramedics were fired because they were caught in an inappropriate position. Inside an ambulance. Yeah.

This trope has a lot zero context examples. When adding or re-adding examples please make sure that the example makes it clear that the character is a doctor and that they're portrayed as attractive (things like whether they're a Love Interest, portrayed using Fanservice Trope, or The Beautiful Tropes, or are way too dolled up for their work).
Anime and Manga
- Shamal of Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha after she's recruited by the Space/Time Administration Bureau.
- Duelo Macfile of Vandread, a male hospital hottie. But, given that most of Nirvana crew is female, it doesn't help much.
- Nurse Harumi of Irresponsible Captain Tylor. Subverted by the fact that she's an alien spy robot.
- Vanilla H of Galaxy Angel is an example of The Medic who is actually a medic, and she has her own route in the Dating Sim.
- Kumi Mashiba from Hajime No Ippo works as a nurse at a hospital.
- Her boss Kazuki Sanada is also one of these, as well as a Genius Bruiser boxer.
- Nurse Joy from Pokémon, all of them.
- Nurse-in-training Ako Izumi from Mahou Sensei Negima and double after she gets her Pactio artifact. Konoka also has a way of dressing as a magic nurse, since she instead uses White Magic.
- Cheif Medic Pururu from Keroro Gunsou.
- All of the nurses from Night Shift Nurses.
- Tae Anegasaki of School Rumble is the school nurse.
- Black Jack. You know you would if you could.
- Naoki Irie, his wife Kotoko Aihara, Keita Kamogari, Motoki Kikyou, Marina Shinagawa, and Tomoko Ogura from Itazura Na Kiss.
- Bleach: 4th Division Captain Unohana Retsu.
- Hanataro has gotten a fair share of fangirls, as well.
- Ishida's Hot Dad Ryuken is the director of Karakura Hospital.
- Tokiko Magami from X1999 was the nurse in her nephew Kamui and Kotori's school.
- Dr. Kenzou Tenma. There's a reason those nurses like to hug him, after all.
- Up until the Marineford Arc, Whitebeard of One Piece was constantly surrounded by these as a result of his advanced age. Of course, recent events have demonstrated there may be more to it than that; after all, Whitebeard is a Quakeman.
- Nurse Youko from Mai Hime.
- Narutaki's assistant Ling Ling, who is a nurse.
- Jun of Brigadoon Marin And Melan works as a nurse, and she's the closest thing to Ms. Fanservice that the series has.
- Ritsuko Kunihiro, Ozaki clinic nurse from Shiki fits this trope too.
- Jeudi from Honoo No Alpenrose is one in training at the beginning of the story. Though only in the anime, since in the manga she's a store worker instead.
- Candace "Candy" Andree from Candy Candy gets into a nurse school after leaving the Boarding School, and thus she becomes one of these.
Comic Books
- Several Marvel Comics characters who share the title Night Nurse[1][2][3].
- Nurse Annie wore this outfit while working with the X Men.
- In the German comic Werner: Brösel's nurse in Beinhart!. Averted by the pesky nurses in Wer sonst?, though.
Film
- A more subtle example is Anna in Eastern Promises.
- Jean Grey in the X-Men movies.
- Subverted in Kill Bill. Daryl Hannah looks awfully good in a nurse's outfit, but she is there to murder the Bride.
- Dr. Furano's assistant Midori in Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl. After her death and resurrection, not so much.
- One appears in Claymation for the opening and ending sequences of Brain Donors.
- Any and every Carry On film that features medical personnel. Jim Dale or Barbra Windsor, but surely Anita Harris is universal?
- Nurse Betty from Resident Evil: Extinction. One word: Dammmmn!
- No Strings Attached: Emma.
- In The Return Of Hanuman, sexy nurses work in Swarglok, mostly to treat the ones who got injured from their journey on Earth.
- All of the nurses in Halloween II (1981).
Literature
- The Twilight series has Carlisle Cullen, a very brilliant doctor, who's also the series' Hot Dad.
- In Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's Faust, Mephistopheles advises a student to become a doctor in order to become one of these.
- Richard Wright from Passage is a male version of this. There's a reason Vielle calls him "Dr. Right." Tish may qualify as the more traditional sexy nurse.
Live-Action TV
- ER (George Clooney's character in particular was treated in-show as the resident heartthrob.)
- Dr. Kildare, especially the Richard Chamberlain series. Chamberlain later came out of the closet as gay.
- Casualty has quite a few.
- Whoniverse examples:
- Doctor Who: Harry Sullivan, Martha Jones and Rory Williams
- Torchwood: Owen Harper
- Green Wing:
- Peter Petrelli from Heroes.
- Many on Green Wing: Angela, Boyce, Guy, Lyndon and Mac.
- Quite a few people on Scrubs, including Elliot Reid, Dr. Cox, Carla, Dr. Molly Clock and Kim.
- Some Scrubs episodes also subvert this trope, in one where they point out that female doctors generally aren't supposed to be known for being fashion forward. Also, in general casting the staff extras with average-looking people.
- It was even played around with Ms. Martinez in "Her Story II".
- Elliot getting up early in the morning and preening herself (and the envy it caused amongst the other female staff) was a plot point in at least one episode.
- In fact, it was a plot point for the entire third season... and a result of the Network demanding that the writers take advantage of the fact that Sarah Chalke is really hot in real life.
- Best Love has Perfect Man Dr. Yoon Jil Pu as The Bachelor on a matchmaking Variety Show.
- From the Stargate 'verse: Dr. Janet Fraiser, Dr. Carson Beckett, Dr. Carolyn Lam, and Dr. Jennifer Keller.
- Dr. Simon Tam of Firefly.
- Ducky, Jeanne Benoit and Jimmy Palmer from NCIS.
- Dr. Jack Shepard and Juliet of Lost.
- Major Margaret "Hot Lips" Houlihan on M*A*S*H, particularly in the first couple seasons and the original movie.
- Dr. Jennifer Melfi from The Sopranos.
- Spoofed in the hospital episode of The Goodies where the nurse turns out to be a bearded man. Then they're informed she's not a man.
- Terri Alden on Threes Company.
- Sonny Lumet, on Bosom Buddies.
- Dr. Bones McCoy and Christine Chapel from Star Trek: The Original Series.
- Julian Bashir from Deep Space Nine.
- Dr. Beverly Crusher from Star Trek: The Next Generation.
- Kes, as the de facto nurse on board the USS Voyager
- Dixie McCall (played by torch singer Julie London) on Emergency.
- Nurse Jennifer from the "From Nurse to Worse" episode of Saved By The Bell.
- Dr. Mikoto Nakadai AKA Abare Killer from Bakuryuu Sentai Abaranger, a certified doctor working on hospital, complete with doctor jacket, is a ranger and... is REALLY bored with life and prefers doing exciting things For the Evulz.
- For the good part, we also have Dr. Yukito Sanjou AKA Abare Blue. He's more Dr. Jerk, but pretty enough to cross dress effectively once.
- Chad Everett's character on Medical Center.
- The school doctor on 15/Love (nicknamed Dr. Downer by the cast) is very attractive, albeit in a Defrosting Ice Queen sort of way. Most students find her frightening or depressing, rather than attractive; school President Bates would beg to differ.
- Combat Hospital doubles this with Good-Looking Privates in its cast. The best examples are Rebecca, Simon and Bobby.
- Sherlock has Doctors John Watson, Sarah Sawyer, and Molly Hooper.
- Doogie Howser MD.
- Beverly D'Angelo (played by Catherine Bell) in the JAG episode "Each Of Us Angels".
- David on The New Normal.
Music
- "Dr. Wanna Do" by Caro Emerald is this trope in lyrical form.
- The Nurse by Philipp Kirkorov.
- The music video for the Steps song Chain Reaction uses this trope for both male and female Fanservice.
- The music video to Toby Keith's "As Good as I Once Was" features a sexy paramedic in the final scene. The set-up had Toby losing (badly) a bar fight with a muscleman that was more than one head taller than he was, and the paramedic is the last thing the badly injured Toby sees before losing consciousness in the ambulance.
Video Games
- Visual Novel:
- Kaori from Crescendo.
- Maria from Private Nurse.
- Mio from the same game may qualify, although she is actually not a professional nurse.
- Kusuha Mizuha from the Super Robot Wars Alpha series and the Super Robot Wars Original Generation is this and Moe Moe. Justified as she has been training to be nurse, and is one of these until she gets to pilot the Grungust Nishiki/Type-2.
- Though he's a field medic rather than working in a hospital or doctor's office, some count the Medic from Team Fortress 2. And since this is an FPS, yes, that includes men.
- Naomi Hunter and Paramedic AKA Dr. Clark from Metal Gear Solid.
- Nurse Lisa Garland in Silent Hill...until that scene, of course.
- Horrifyingly averted by diverse nurse monsters. Many of them have the body, but when you get to the face however...
- Multiple characters in Trauma Center.
- Cap White from Elite Beat Agents, though she's less of an actual nurse and more of an Anthropomorphic Personification of the human immune system.
- Balrog in the end credits of Cave Story appears as one of these.
- Nurse Melanie from Mana Khemia Alchemists Of Alrevis.
- Dr. Chakwas from Mass Effect, overlapping into Grandma, What Massive Hotness You Have!. Also, though she holds a PhD and not an MD, Dr. Liara T'Soni does hang out in the sickbay and is a Blue-Skinned Space Babe par excellence.
- Apparently Mordin Solus in Mass Effect 2 is an in-universe example of Mr. Fanservice.
- Dr Michel qualifies as well
- Pokémon center nurses. Just look.
- Anna Richardson in Geist. There's probably a very good reason why Raimi gets to possess her of all people at one point.
- Some of the Allied Chatter in the Halo series has this: "I need a nurse! No, no, a female nurse."
- Don Lothario from The Sims 2 qualifies being both The Casanova and an Intern in the medical career track
- Compa from Neptunia, complete with a giant syringe and some alternate◊ costumes◊ to help her fit the bill even more.
Webcomics
- Winston from Freefall is a male example. At least Florence thinks he's handsome.
- Help me handsome doctor.
- The Other Grey Meat introduces medical practitioner Beth to John (who fainted inside the clinic) particularly subtly to suggest this.
- Emily's previous year's Halloween Costume from Misfile.
- Also Ash's father, Dr. Edward Upton, the "Freaky Deaky" gynecologist with the "magic fingers" counts.
Western Animation
- The Trope Maker Hello Nurse from Animaniacs.
- Mrs. Dr. Possible from Kim Possible. And during one episode she had Bonnie as a student.
- Dr. Duckbreath's nurse in Taz Mania.
- June Darby of Transformers: Prime.
- Betty Boop when she becomes a veterinarian in "A Song a Day".

Why was the real life section deleated? If anything it needed to be expanded to include female doctors.
