Memorable Dr. Beeper quotes from Caddyshck:

Dr. Beeper: I thought you'd be the man to beat this year.
Ty Webb: I guess you'll just have to keep beating yourself.

Judge Smails: Oh Dr. Beeper, Bishop Pickering this is my niece Lacey Underall. Lacey's mother sent her to us for the summer.
Dr. Beeper: Must be a nice change from dreary old Manhattan.
Lacey Underall: Yes I was really getting tired of having fun all the time.

Dr. Beeper: We're about to tee off now...

...so call the hospital...

...and move my appointment
with Mrs. Bellows back    minutes.  
                  
Just snake a tube down her nose
and I'll be there...
...in four or five hours. Testing now.
