Doctor Figurine Collectibles, Gifts and Keepsakes

Sunday, September 25th, 2011

If  you’ve got a friend graduating from medical school or setting up their own practice, a doctor figurine is a wonderful keepsake gift to give them. It is a remembrance of how much you value their achievement and their friendship. Many of the doctor figurines show a traditonal doctor with the big light around their forehead and a stethescope round their neck and a long white coat. It gives them almost a vintage feel.

Given the important role that doctors play in our culture and society, all of the major figurine name brands have their own doctor figurines for you to purchase – including Goebel, Norman Rockwell, Hummel, Japan, and Marvel. If you want to have a pure Americana feel to your doctor figurine, then Norman Rockwell is definitely the way to go. Of course these days, you’ll find both male and female doctor figurines.

If a doctor has been particularly kind and helpful – as well as medically helpful – and you want to say think you in a personal way. Then a figurine gift is the perfect sentiment. It is personal but not overly so. And you can match the figurine to the doctor’s personality.

While the Norman Rockwell figurines defintely pull at the heart string, you’ll find humurous figurines and even a skull doctor figurine.
