About

How Does It Look, Doc?, also known as Doc How Does It Look? or Doctor On Computer Giving MRI Scan, refers to an exploitable image macro meme showing a doctor or radiologist looking at a computer screen while another person is getting an MRI scan in the other room. The man wearing red scrubs is shown lying down in an MRI machine, asking, "How does it look, doc?" or "Does it look bad, doc?" to which the doctor responds, "Lmao, hold on fam," or "hold on dude," while distracted by a video game, meme or piece of media on his computer screen. The original image stems from a stock photo originally uploaded to the internet in 2009, after which it came to be used in memes all through the 2010s and 2020s as users replaced the imagery on the doctor's screen.
