I’d say it’s absurdist humor. The thought of having such a highly specialized profession be treated like something as commonplace as a barber (both doing work on the head) is pretty absurd.
Could also be some play on the history of barber-surgeons, where the professions were one in the same.
I’m afraid I don’t get it. Or if it’s just an informal setting for a very formal profession then this is a rare miss for me dawg.
I think it’s slightly more specific, “What if a neurosurgeon operated like a barbershop?”, but yeah that’s the gist of it.
My first thought was more like a butcher shop… but yeah, yours tracks too
