As it turns out, medics have something of a reputation: not only is the stereotypical medic a geek (true), an alcoholic (often true), and the life and the soul of the party (especially true when the other guest don't mind you talking dissection), but also (for lack of a better word) kinky. Whether or not this stereotype is true, it does mean that we are possibly among the most hit-on of all subject groups (though that may have something to do with the fact that we're also the most awesome).
Anyway, if you do decide to take your chance with a medic, I believe I will be doing said medic a huge favour by telling you to avoid the following lines, especially when they are followed by a leering wink:
'I think I need a medical examination.'
'So, want to learn some anatomy?'
'Can I come over and make use of those rubber gloves?'
'I have a bad case of the (insert cheesy made-up disease here), can you help me out?'
Using these, and most other medical-related chat-up lines, does not make you original and witty (just ask the last 10 people who tried them), but it will make you slightly more likely to become acutely aware of just how wonderfully easily we can cause people pain.
Just fyi, you know...

P.S. Also, never ever employ mistletoe in any attempt to speak to us- not that that's related to medicine in any way, it's just never a good idea.
