The name of the nurse that cared for my father in a nursing home is Nurse. She told me she is thinking of changing back to her maiden name. I asked her several times for her name I couldn't believe it.

I used to work on a medsurg floor c two urologists -- Dr. Petrus (long 'e') and Dr. Whisnant (WHIZZ-nant). Both very very nice people.

Also, I took our dog once to a vet named Dr. Barkley.

Shands Hospital had doctor named Dr. Gross! He was an awesome doctor, but I'd always get a laugh from his name.

Re: funny names for nurses

Where I Work In Sf, We Once Had A Nurse Name Wy. (pronounced Why) And One Time One Of The Residents Came Into The Report Room Asking Who Was The Nurse For Mr? And I Said, Wy And He Sayd ,because I Need To Give Her A Verbal Order, And I Said Wy And He Got Very Upset, Untill Everyone Started Laughing And Told Him That Her Name Was Wy.
Another One Is We Had A Pt Name Ho, And It Was Very Hard To Say Good Morning Mrs Ho
Also I Had A Pt Who's Last Name Was Cerda, Which Means Female Pig In Spanish, And She Was 350 Lbs By The Way, So I Was Embarrased To Call Her Name, And She Was Hispanic Too.

My doctor's name is Pro, and, I did choose him by that name when I saw it in the phone book. He definitely in a professional. The one I fired, I renamed Dr Fester because he became one in my side after misdiagnosing me twice, and for not believing me.

Re: funny names for nurses

I used to work with V. Doktor, RN. Nurse Doktor! (We would encourage the demented pts to call out for her)

I also work in OB with Dr. Apgar and my childhood dentist was Dr. Arff.
