Right? This is an invalid graph without Dr. House.
I hope OP doesn't have lupus

Somewhere between top-right and top-middle depending on how revoked his license is at the given moment and how much vicodin he is on.

Top right, about 20 feet outside the graph.
Calm down Cuddy.

No Dr. House?
And Oz should be right on top of the Run For Your Life because he’s not fictional and should know better.
Doctor House would be top right but partly because you wouldn't need to run very far.

Dr. Oz and Dr. Phil have done far more harm than Dr. Pepper could ever aspire to.

6 years of evil medical school doesn't qualify as professional credentials? Also I'd put Dr. Phil below most of these guys, although maybe slightly above Hannibal Lector still.
I trust Doctor Pepper more than Phil.
Yeah Phil goes down and to the left. I’d say oz goes down a little bit too, but I’m glad the maker of this meme still put those guys in the right section.

Dr. Evil didn't spend 6 years in evil fricking medical school to be put in no professional training

How in the heckin' is JD below a dwarf, a mad scientist tinkerer, and a random catchy band?
He is a caring, trained, and competent doctor who will put his pride and personal life aside to help a patient.
At some points he's arguably the best diagnostician at Sacred Heard.

Dr. Who and Dr. Strange both have a shitload of training...
Oh yeah, Dr. Strange was literally one of the world's best surgeons, right?
Yup, and Time Lords in general probably had several medical degrees worth of education.

How are Oz and Phil so high on this spectrum?
They haven't eaten human liver or tried pan frying a piece of someone's brain .... but they're still a couple of idiots that shouldn't be trusted for medical advice
They may not be cannibals, but I wouldn't put it past them to have devoured a number of souls....
For reference on the no training side:
Dr. Dre and Dr. Venture: Both possess honorary doctorates. The former from UCLA, the latter from a Tijuana community college.
Dr. Pepper: Charles T. Pepper did have a medical doctorate. He is cited as a possible source of the name.
Dr. Evil: Evil medical school.
Zoidberg: Claims he lost it in a volcano, more likely a art history degree.
Dr. Horrible: Likely physics though he claims Horribleness (though it could be a catchphrase.)
Dr. Seuss: Intended to get a Doctorate of Philosophy, got an honorary doctorate of Humane Letters.
The Doctor: Per This - While pretending to be the Doctor in an effort to save herself from an army of Cybermen, one of the planet’s deadliest enemies, in Death in Heaven, Clara said: ‘I don’t even really have a doctorate. Well Glasgow University, but then I accidentally graduated in the wrong century.’
Doc: Does become a doctor at Storybrooke hospital in a live action show, "Once Upon a Time", apparently not a surgeon though.
Spin Doctors: No doctors.
I feel like a fair amount of those on the trained side aren't medical doctors (Phil, Ock, Robotnik, Lector, Honeydew) or at the very least, aren't folks you'd want around for your heart attack.
Dr Strange being a professional surgeon and barely making it past the neutral mark on the qualification axis seems, well, a bit strange
I'd put Strange ahead of McCoy. What is McCoy going to do without his Tricorder? He'd rant,
"They used to hand-cut and sew people like garments. Needles and sutures."

Some unsolicited comments on this:
- I would absolutely trade Dr. Bunsen Honeydew with Dr. Mario.
- The Dr. Pepper position is just pure slander.
- Dr. Horrible and Doogie Howser, MD is the true duality of humanity.
- Zoidberg is suspiciously much higher along the Y-axis than I would personally prefer.
- Dr. Dre, like I would forget, is absolutely a quadrant II candidate. There's just no way I'd put Spin Doctors high along the Y-axis than Dre.
Dr. Strange is a fully trained surgeon. He should be farther to the right!
Not just fully trained, but at the top of his field and possessing an MD and a PhD! He should be at the far right edge!

Also... I think he brought some mother fuckers back from the dead. And he helped reverse the snap.
That sounds like he's probably got a solid defense against any complaints made to the state board.

Doctor Evil didn't go to Evil Medical School for six years to be put in the section with no training, thank you very much!
Dr Oz and Dr Phil are not doctors and should be to the left and south of Dr Pepper. Neither has a license and both are so full of shit their advice has probably killed people.

There is no way Dr. Mario has any training. He just throws random pills at the problems hoping that they line up and do something other than cause an overdose.

Why is Doctor Strange to the left of JD from Scrubs? Isn't he a world renown surgeon or something? Does that count for less because he hasn't had medical practice lately?

Dr. Zoidberg is a fully-qualified medical doctor, though, and a good one at that. Just not for humans. Even so, he's quite good, given that he hasn't killed any of his human patients, though they may come out a little different.
As is Doctor Who, who has high qualifications in literally everything. It took them a few goes, but they got there in the end.

Having The Doctor at the top is a little strange, because hanging with the doctor could very well mean your death, but it will be worth it.

Dr. Robotnik is more trustworthy than Phil tbh, but I suppose context matters.

I would trust J.D. with my life way over Dr. Seuss.
J.D. is a fool, but he's also a really good doctor.

Zoidberg should be lower.
Nonsense! Zoidberg's a fine physician. For Aliens. Your mistake is being human!

Top right corner, there's a Collage Humor watermark.
It explains why this is so inaccurate
The more anyone looks at this, the worse it gets.
Someone needs to fix this. But not me, I don't have my doctorate in memeology yet.
- Dr. Phil has training that's a shock?
- Bro I'd trust Dr. Pepper more than a lot of people on this list
