In 1986, part of the hiring process for the large bank I worked for in NYC was a physical by their doctor.

That reminds me of an episode of "Hogan's Heroes" where Newkirk gets drafted into the German Army while working on Hogan's plan to sabotage an ammunition factory. He must first pass a physical by a German doctor. Newkirk pulls every stunt he can think of during his physical, but it does no good:

Newkirk: "Hello her Doctor."
Doctor: (With a lit cigarette hanging from his mouth) "Sit in the blue chair."
Newkirk does so and doctor makes a note while saying, "Eyesight; Perfect."

Doctor then draws a pistol and fires one shot into the ceiling.
Newkirk screams and jumps out of the chair.
Doctor makes a note while saying, "Hearing; Perfect."
Doctor then asks Newkirk, "How do you feel?"
Newkirk: "Vell Doctor, I'm a little out of breath..."
Doctor makes a note while saying, "Subject is breathing and perfectly fit. NEXT!"

LOL!

Here’s a health joke Bette Midler told Johnny Carson on his farewell episode, that cracked Johnny up:

An old man goes to the doctor.

“What seems to be the trouble?” asked the doctor.

The old guy complains, “Doctor, I’m having silent gas emissions!”

“Okay,” replies the doctor. You should have a thorough exam. Let’s start with your hearing.”
