The mentioned doctor and his records on Ford from the thisisnotawebsitedotcom reveal that he's guilty of medical malpractice. You can find the page on the Gravity Falls wiki if you're curious, searching under computer.
Gravity Falls the show didn't show it much, but Ford absolutely would've regularly had to deal with doctors treating him like an experiment or someone with a disease rather than like a person.
This particular doctor went to the side of the extreme of treating his polydactily as superhuman and admitted in the records to wanting to experiment on him. The record has also a check mark on him as finger donor, where it's unclear whether or not Ford consented to that. Or whether or not Ford knew of that doctor's thoughts. Or why he was even there, except that he voluntarily discharged himself.
The man has likely so much medical trauma. I imagine that the others, with Stanley at the head, in Cat Verse have to coax Ford to go seeing a doctor if it's not life-threatening. And find one he can learn to trust.
That sounds like something that would happen to him. I wouldn't be surprised if he went to the hospital a lot when he was younger and he grew, and that the only reason it stopped was because of the bills and the fact he was perfectly healthy otherwise.
I don't think Stan would be heading any hospital visits for Fords health unless it was an emergency. Stan has a lot of medical trauma himself, maybe not as severe or the same as Fords, but he would be on Fords side in trying to handle all medical problems at home. Stan thinks doctors are quacks and has severe money anxiety, Ford thinks he's better than doctors and has medical anxiety. Neither of them are going to a hospital willingly.

Sometimes a cat needs just a good smoke
I accidentally turned it into a comic





Ford and Stan are venturing in the forest somewhere in the great times when it was just Stanford and Nikola and no Bills, Fiddlefords, Carlas etc. They stumble upon a fae king — a creature made up of unfortunate enough fairies which got their ears entangled together. There are legends that the fae king grants wishes — but it is not said that it isn't the true hearts desire but a here&now whim. Ford, being a scientist™, has tried to test fae kings abilities (because maybe the closeness makes the fairies powerful and, unlike their solo siblings, they are able of ACTUAL magic). Well, turned out the fae king didn't want to do shit for Ford, so, obviously, the legends are lies. Stan, being a rational guy, sees how fucked up his brother's survival instincts are. Sometimes he wishes he had thumbs just to strangle his brother. Sometimes he doesn't even want that, wishing just to have a smoke instead. The fairies come to resque!!!
Stan is afraid his mad scientist brother is gonna put him in a tube and study him. I can't say he's entirely wrong.

Had a silly thought about hypothetical cat curse shenanigans with @dark-lord-of-awesomeness's How to Cat Burglar a Family ;)
Bonus doodle!!
#I hope ya like? :')#Do living things count as stealable? It seems intent based but I couldnt remember if itd come up. Maybe a philosophical nightmare if it did#just had the mental image of Stanley grabbing Dipper/Mabel from Shermie. turning into a cat & everyone SCRAMBLING to catch the falling baby#Also based on the bit in Gnome Gemulets where Stan mentions fighting off Shermie to keep holding the twins when they were born :]#Though having already co-parented like 2 (3?) kids and not being completely alone like canon Stan. I wonder if/how Cat Stan would differ?#Also Shermie in his leather jacket (or at least another one he transferred the cat patch onto) I loved that bit its so cute 😭#Almost drew Stan as fully grey as a cat but iirc cats don't go grey in the same way as people. So i went with lil grey flecks. Geezer cat#This fic lives rent free in my brain truly 💙💙💙#How to Cat Burglar a Family#Gravity Falls#Fan art#Stanley Pines#Shermie Pines#Stan Pines#Sherman Pines#Grunkle Stan#Fanart#Cat Stan#GF fanart#Comic#Artists on tumblr#My art

Cat Stan au but it’s a time loop, and everytime Ford finds out that his cat is Stan earlier than he’s supposed to, the timeline resets.
To be clear Ford is the one experiencing the time loop, Cat Stan has no idea that it’s happening.
However the rules are, he can’t “find out” his cat is Stan until they defeat Bill and he can’t get rid of Bill until he thinks Stanley is dead and or they have collected Shifty, Carla, Dan, Emma-May, Fidds and Tate.
Ford does not know these rules so things keep repeating.
Ford: Hmm that is very strange, my cat is speaking Morse code perhaps he’s not a cat?
*Alarm Clock goes off, the day resets*
Ford: *screams a unhearable swear in gnomish*
————
Ford: Wait Nikola what are you spelling…
Ford: *picks up paper with messy scrawl that reads:
I AM STANLEY *
Stanley: *tail swaying back and forth*
Ford: *sweating because he doesn’t want to repeat the day for the fifth time* Oh look at that I must be haunted! That is definitely the right conclusion to this
Cat Stan: *internally* Really Ford?!? Surely you can’t be that oblivious right?!
Ford: *internally* Don’t worry once I find a way to break this irritating loop I will uncurse you
God this would be awful. Does every reset send him to him meeting Stan? Or just the day, because the first one is a horror story and the other a comedy as he does increasingly bizarre things to figure out how to complete a day. I imagine the moment the time loop breaks he'd have some kind if breakdown, either from the whole ordeal being over or a maniac party at finally completing every day and getting to the end of whatever was happening to him.
Just grabs Stan's shoulders and blurts out everything that'd happened the last few.... however long he was in a loop. Total mania followed by a crash.

Stanford "Brain Guy" Pines vs common sense, go!!!
Though I must admit, it IS funnier to think your cat uses the covers of your books to swear due to not knowing swears in Morse code. Not that it may be a miserable little man instead of a nice smart kitty.
@dark-lord-of-awesomeness 's Cat Stan au has entered my mind and is refusing to leave it. You can say, it cat-burglared its way here. I was craving content, rereading the main story, until I realised I have the power of cartoonized cats on my side. Though it is unlikely that I will post a lot seeing as I'm currently drowning in study.
P. S. If you can't read my handwriting, check alt 😘

#I think i actually ended up mixing two scenes together here but the vibes man the vibessss#Its such a fluffy fic (with some good stangst) and then BOOM the horror of being trapped in your own skin fully aware but unable to move#The numbness is so viseral & I love how it made the stakes of getting caught that much more tense. its so GOOD! Bill when I catch you Bill-#this is sketchy but i was worried I'd get caught up in over rendering and end up never posting it soooooo badabingbadaboom!#Absolutely going to be drawing more stuff for this fic btw :3 Already got so many doodles of of Cat stan and Muppet Shifty and Ford and-#How to Cat Burglar a Family#fanfiction fanart#Gravity Falls#GF Fanart#gf bord#Bill Cipher#Stan Pines#Stanley Pines#Cat Stan#cw blood#cw injury#Fanart#fan art#artists on tumblr#my art
