My dentist's reception and waiting room has many drawings and pictures of gums, teeth, and related subjects. Then there are heaps of brochures, leaflets and magazines showing you and telling you anything you want to know about teeth, oral hygiene, and related topics.
At my vet's, it's full of all sorts of animals' pictures - and magazines on pets, horses, livestock, beasts small and large.
My travel agent's office is decorated with splendid pictures of exotic views, and you can spend hours reading the illustrated catalogues.
My taxidermist not only has pictures of various beasts, he showcases the real things. Of course it's full of hunting magazines, taxidermy publications, and wildlife revues.
I was very disappointed when I took my wife to her gyno. That slob has really no sense of décor, and is probably illiterate to boot.

Reminds me of the joke about the cardiologist's funeral.
When Dr. Silverstein, a cardiologist, died, he wanted an open casket ceremony. He custom designed an elaborate casket that was modeled to look exactly like a human heart. The good doctor looked so peaceful lying in his heart-shaped casket, reminding everyone what he had done his entire career.
One of his closest friends, Dr. Goldstein, attended the funeral with his wife. Dr. Goldstein was a gynecologist. When Mrs. Goldstein saw Dr. Silverstein's casket, she leaned over to her husband and whispered, "Don't you get any ideas."
