Not much wrong with that. He's just trying to be funny and failing. Stick to medicine doc.

Seems pretty normal to me, what's the issue you have with it?

Looks more like a dangerously deranged maniac than a merry exaggerator.

He is on his happy pills - I agree with Dave, it looks pretty normal to me as well.

So did you apply? Here is more info about the surgeon... his website could do with some work!

I must concur - It is a very strange website. I'm guessing he wants people to see him as "human" and "trustworthy" so they can feel comfortable being cut open or stuck with needles by him. He may be the best surgeon in the world - but that website ain't doing him any favours.

Along with the job description he posted he clearly needs some help with his branding/marketing and positioning!

I think he's surgically attached those female legs to his neck. Perks of the job I guess!
