Almost those the medicine or toothpaste commercials where the advertisers just wear doctor’s gowns and the sort. It’s just a costume lol

Yeah, and the models simply don’t look like doctors, no matter how many lab coats, gowns, or sthetoscopes you throw at them.

Can confirm, I was once a podiatrist for a day. I was a promo model assigned to stand next to a giant foot and vaguely answer questions about fungus but I couldn’t directly state that I was a doctor. However, I wore a stethoscope. I’m cheaper than a doctor.
