Clifford Burnett

Clifford Burnett is a patient with a broken leg who Phoebe met in the hospital where Rachel was giving birth. He was portrayed by Eddie McClintock.
Phoebe asked Joey to go in and ask him personal questions before she went in to speak to him herself. 
Of the information Cliff gave to "Dr. Drake Ramoray", Phoebe thought he came off great, and visited him in his hospital room. They have a great time, but once Joey's soap opera Days of our Lives (in which he plays the same doctor he impersonated) comes on the television, and Cliff freaks out. Phoebe then, tries to make him feel like he was seeing things, but then Joey barges into the room, in order to tell Phoebe that Rachel is having her baby.
Cliff feels betrayed by this, as Phoebe had lied to him, and then made him feel like he was crazy. As Cliff had told Joey some really personal stuff, Joey then decides to tell him some personal stuff about Phoebe:
*She was married to a gay ice dancer.
*She gave birth to her brothers triplets.
*Her twin sister used to do porn.
Phoebe wanted Joey to stop talking about her, because that might freak him out more. Though Cliff was still upset about it and wanted them to leave, Phoebe managed to convince him to change his mind, stating that it wasn't often that she had felt a connection with someone like him, to which he reciprocated.
In the uncut version, when Cliff heard about Phoebe giving birth to her brother's triplets, he freaked a bit and said "You and your brother didn't--" and Phoebe said "No, no. They implanted embryos." and Cliff answered "Then dinner sounds great."
It is not known whether Cliff and Phoebe went on the date, as he is never seen again in the series.
