Characters in Arrested Development often end up in the hospital or in need of medical attention. Some of the hospital visits happen at Landau Memorial Hospital, as seen named in "Key Decisions".

Several recurring jokes include Tobias' numerous medical emergencies (despite being the only "doctor" of the Bluth family), family members burning themselves on the Cornballer, and Dr. Fishman's ominous literal diagnoses.
