Joe DiVita of Loudwire wrote: "Impaled's name is an acronym for Immoral Medical Practitioners and Licentious Evil-Doers and they're true to themselves on the cover for 'Mondo Medicale.' The words 'this is going to hurt you a lot more than it's going to hurt me' couldn't scream any louder as eyes are plucked from their sockets and the mouth is forced agape. The patient here is likely fully awake and may want to consider filing a malpractice suit if he survives." [1]
