Calling Dr. Porky is a 1940 Looney Tunes short directed by Friz Freleng.

Title[]

The title is a play on the 1939 film Calling Dr. Kildare.

Plot[]

Porky is a doctor at the New Rightus Hospital, where "We take Pains-We have lots of Patients." A drunk dog comes to be cured by Dr. Porky. Pursued and harassed by three ghostly pink baby elephants, he begs Dr. Porky to help him. When Dr. Porky leaves for the elixir, those mischievous elephants put the poor drunk through an endless series of exams. However, Dr. Porky finally manages to cure his patient, causing the elephants to disappear.
