I think we need to have "Period" Support with a Gynecologist next! 😉 I'm dying to answer some period health questions!

[danecraze]

The information is easily digestible, thanks!

Had the pleasure of working at the same practice as Dr Iroku during his time in NC. He truly is just as nice in person as he appears in this video. So nice to see a familiar face!

Dr Iroku has nailed perfect balance of being fun and informative while remaining professional. Perfect for this series!

[pedrofreire]

This guy is just wonderful, I like that sense of humor in a doctor. "Dr, what is wrong with me?" "Yes."

[vishantt]

This guy is so professional and has such a calm aura about him. Exactly what I would like my doctor to have.

He won my respect when he said “gastroenterologist and digestive disease specialist” without stuttering—he’s too powerful

[sweetluvgurl]

“Aren’t we all a little lactose intolerant?” “The answer is…. No, just you.” 😂

[doctorugo]

I had a great time with these questions! Thanks WIRED 💚!!!

1:09 ‘No, just you’ actually got me🤣🤣 I love how they choose professionals with such great fun and easy going personalities❤️It makes science a little less nerdy

[gabireinoehl]

as someone who struggles with IBS, i absolutely love this man. i love his sense of humor and personality, it makes uncomfortable conversations at times so much easier and more open. BIG FAN OF THIS DOC ❤️

[therealbuttsmcgee]

I wish he was my gastro, he's got the vibe that he's one of those doctors that immediately makes patients feel at ease

[mnels]

Seriously, how are these weird topics so engaging? Probably the professionals they feature, but this is a fantastic series.

6:34 “Raphael we just met” 😩😭 Hilarious and informative. Thank you Dr. Iroku!

[bsktballman]

I love when they get people with uncommon medical professions (remembering the mortician.) They always seem to have a great (but slightly off) sense of humor yet seem like nice people.

Please do a gynecologist next. I’ve got a few questions.

as someone with ibs and anxiety knowing my anxiety causes my ibs and vice versa is actually very calming

[ferarri]

As someone with Ulcerative Colitis, I'm glad to see gastrointestinal issues being put on the spotlight. As well as a specialist educating people on this. Taking care of yourself before it becomes chronic is key!

[Bxdarealest]

This guy is like a very smart comedian doctor. You can tell his patients love to visit him. Cool guy

[decorousdonut]

I love his hand gesture whenever he wants to demonstrate the bowel movement. So smooth and delicate, I want my bowel movement to be like that too

WIRED's Tech Support series is undeniably the greatest content on the internet. Experts "dumbing down" information just enough without making it seem like they're trying to explain things to children, while also being infinitely entertaining.
