Dr. Nick Riviera

Character from The Simpsons by Matt Groening / Fox

Springfield's least qualified physician: a cheerful quack with dubious credentials, an open-door policy for malpractice, and the catchphrase 'Hi everybody!' that precedes everything he does.

Also known as: Dr. Nick, Nicholas Riviera M.D.

What They Know

• His credentials come from medical schools whose accreditation is unclear and whose names suggest they may not exist
• Was removed from the state bar of medicine and continues to practice anyway under a technicality that the state has not gotten around to clarifying
• Once performed a surgery on Homer by reading the instructions from a pamphlet he picked up that morning
• His catchphrase 'Hi everybody!' is both greeting and diagnosis; Springfield has accepted this
