ive seen quite a number of surgeons and got to shadow some...and theyre all atleast 6 feet and over except this one orthopod that was like 5'8" and skinny lol.
Wow. I always thought that was just one of those things that everyone talks about but you kind of file away in the b.s. drawer. I'm 6'5" (not sure about the handsome thing). Makes me feel like my destiny is chosen for me already! I wonder if there are correlations between that and the stereotyped personalities as well.

Never looked at the article, but trust me...I've read journal articles with weirder things said.
And I know that WingedScapula didn't intend for you to take it seriously either....)
Huh. I always thought you were in the 5'8"-5'10" range.It must have been murder for them to operate with me (at 5'5").

Ortho guys tend to look rather 'frat-ish'. And of course, of the four absolutely best looking docs I have ever laid eyes on, two are trauma surgeons, one is IM and one is EM.

Blonde- I'm sure your stunning. I just prefer men to oogle. So, you wouldn't be good eyecandy.
Dre- plenty of plastics. Maybe I just don't like that pretty-i-am-trying-to-hold-on-to-my-teenage-years boy next door thing.
You are not imagining it. A study published in BMJ proves it: http://www.bmj.com/cgi/content/full/333/7582/1291
The best line from the article, IMHO: "How do surgeons become taller and better looking than physicians? Firstly, surgeons spend a lot of time in operating rooms, which are cleaner, cooler, and have a higher oxygen content than the average medical ward, where physicians spend most of their time. Furthermore, surgeons protect (but not always properly) their faces with surgical masks, a barrier to facial microtrauma, and perhaps an effective anti-ageing device (which deserves further testing). "
Must be the sense of commanding authority I project (or the heels I now regularly wear in the office)!
wow. I too am thrown off by this. From all your posts I could've sworn you were a 6'3" dude...come to find out you are a 5'5" blondie...that is HOT!
YOU I forgive, if only because you are a new member (and because of the last line).

Socialist knows better (at least my gender, if not my height). Plus my picture is available here...perhaps I should post one of me standing next to a measuring stick or sumthin so I can prove my averageness (in height).
Ha! Think Sloan from Grey's (minus the grey hair).
You must be watching too much Dr. 90210 if you think we're all pretty boys.
Ooooh....he's pretty enough.
Forget about Dr. Dre...you're McSteamy!

but not for lack of effort, eh Dre?
*dies laughing*
attractive smart successful and lazy with the ladies..... Which one doesn't belong?
I'm not single--I don't think my girlfriend would approve of any McSteamy-type behavior.
I was just teasing. you made it sound like you sit back and let the ladies do all the work.
*** but now I see what you meant. you don't try and woo the ladies.... because you aren't single.***** I'm giddy. I am on my last shift at one of my hospitals and tomm night is my last shift in NYC>
Well, I do not know about general surgeons, but most of the Orthopods I met (at least the residents), fit your stereotype of tall, hhhhhhunky, slllllllllim, ttttthhhhickkkk males...yummy
Other stereotypes:
-Most ENTs and Ophthos are asians?
-Most Neurosurgeons are middle-eastern?
-Most females in Ophthal are HOT.
...while most females in GS are bitchy (Except WS, off-coarse)
