Dr. Karen

Usually blonde with glasses, tries to act young but looks like they're deep into their late forties. Cries in the middle of surgery when she finds out her child got hurt on the playground and shows that awkward weakness in a professional setting either trying to gain attention or sympathy. Demands you call her Dr. So-and-so with a minor in Gender Studies while some doctors are like 'Call me Ben. Call me Josh. Call me Mike.' Her favorite cartoon character is a yellow pill with one or two eyeballs. If she asks the tech to burp the DaVinci robot and they ask her to repeat herself because she mumbles, she will email the director saying that the tech does not know how to use the DaVinci Robot.

The Anesthesiologist variant of this is the same: Blonde with glasses, never smiles with RBF and when things go down and you run your hardest to get blood from the blood bank and doing the procedure of reading the patient name, blood type, DOB and serial number three times, Dr. Karen will still think you walked and took a break.

Don't socialize or mingle with Dr. Karens. They're miserable.
"Dr. Karen threw a tantrum when I took only 2 minutes to get blood from the blood bank thinking I should've gotten it just like that. She's like a spoiled 5-year-old brat who wants things handed to her immediately and if she doesn't get her way, she'll throw a tantrum."
