I don't ever recall a doctor coming to the house, but I do remember one time that I got an enema at the doctor's office. The doctor didn't give it, his nurse did. This was sometime about 1965 or so and she used a white enema can that had a red hose on it. My mother had given me enemas at home before by they were always with a bulb. All I recall was that I was never happy getting enemas but that one at the doctors really made me poop.

My childhood doctor also had an enema can on a shelf in the examination room, but it was never used on me. Instead I was given all my enemas from a similar can at home, twice on doctor's orders.
As Rob indicated, graduating from a bulb to a 2-qt bag or can is a very memorable experience for many, just because of the increased volume if nothing else.
