Doctor Doctor!

Folks, I have a question!

If I were to ask you to list the top doctor characters in fiction - Medical Doctor or PhD or people who are Healers or Herb Witches or Midwives or basically anyone of that type of character, any medium of fiction - who would you list?

They don't need to be "good" characters. Just your personal favourites. If you have time to tell me why or link me to some great "This character is awesome because" things, that would be ace, but names are good.

I'd appreciate if you asked your friends to participate as well!

(I guess The Doctor counts, but you can only list him 11 times.)

(yes this is for a thing.)

MARTHA JONES. Nuff said.

Ioreth from LOTR, the healer from the Houses of Healing

Dr Egon Spengler ♥ "Back off man; I'm a scientist."
ETA Oh god he didn't even say that. My geekness is shamed. :( I still love Egon, though.

Doc Cottle (Battlestar Galactica) He's snarky and rude; he smokes around his patients and he doesn't sugar coat things.

Dr Karl Kennedy (from Neighbours) He's the only doctor on the whole soap, which means he specialises in everything from oncology to gynaecology and even emergency surgery. XD He knows everything and does everything that involves scenes in the hospital.

Who's got two thumbs and likes sarcasm? Dr Cox. (As a sarcastic bastard I love him; as an actual doctor he lacks a certain something. ... Bedside manner, perhaps.)

Egon is the one who collects molds, spores, and fungus. Dr. Venkman said, "Back off, I'm a scientist" -- a tagline in my circle for more than a quarter-century.

Why don't I have a Ghostbusters icon?
