So, Dr. Goose didn't exactly go to medical school. And his office is sort of a...well, a garage in a shifty neighborhood. That doesn't mean he's not a gifted professional...it just means he's not always a first choice. But when it's 3 am and you've just been in a knife fight you don't need the police finding out about, you take what you can get.
