Doctor Reacts To Hilarious South Park Medical Scenes

Last year I reacted to medical scenes from The Simpsons. One of you suggested I should reacted to South Park medical scenes, and I challenged you to get that comment to 10,000 likes. Boy did you deliver! So, to cash that check, I sat down and reacted to medical scenes from Trey Parker and Matt Stone’s Comedy Central sensation, South Park. There was a ton of hilarious stuff in here and plenty of opportunities for me to talk about some medicine! While Cartman’s gingervitis might not be real, gingivitis is and there are tons of myths about red/ginger hair and freckles. I also discussed Kyle’s need for a kidney transplant, Stan confronting “naturopaths” selling miracle supplements, Cartman getting shots for vaccines and vaccinations, and the antics of Dr. Doctor. We’ll save Kenny’s unfortunate endings for another time ;)

I LOVE reading your comments and take your suggestions seriously. If there’s a subject you want me to discuss or something you’d like for me to react to, leave a comment down below. Many of my videos have been born out of suggestions directly from you, so don’t hold back!

1. Give a toy.
2. Earn the trust.
3. Give a shot.
4. Face the "you deceived me" look.

[pearlmoth]

the fact that you said “your kidneys get rid of toxins for you” while the reason kyle was sick was because type 1 diabetes destroyed his kidneys 😂

[Grace.]

Love how eric is just going feral and Dr Mike is giving actual solutions XD

[suyangsong]

lmfao "get me 50 cc of ketamine STAT, and get something for the kid too"
I actually laughed so hard too

[paulzapodeanu]

You missed the best one. The one where Cartman tries to fly with cardboard wings, and the doctor diagnoses him with severe stupidity, stupidity which has caused him to fall and get in to a coma. That episode is pure awesome.

I love how they all care so much abt each other being sick and then when Kenny gets impaled they are just like “there goes Kenny” and then they just leave lol

0:22 As an adult with a fear of needles, thank you. I always ask doctors to keep the needle out of my eyesight when I need to get a shot. Most oblige the request, but for some reason, as a kid, I had a doctor who thought that having me see the needle would somehow calm me. It was insanely stupid and just made me fight the doctor as a kid. The doctor literally never learned and I grew up fighting the doctor every single time.

The ketamine joke is one of my favorite jokes of all time. That joke for some reason is hilarious to me

[johnmn]

I like how the doctor instantly discusses Kyle's medical info to Stan totally dismissing confidentiality.

3:40 cartman's friends just dyed his hair

For anyone curious about the Ginko Biloba sign around 7:28:


Ginko is a pretty ancient species of tree that has duck feet shaped leaves and has seeds that smell like dog fecal matter. Its really bad trust me.

The real hero is the editor who found all the medical scenes without the swearing

[thestickman]

"Who wakes up from a nap missing a kidney?" Obviously Dr. Mike has never seen Charlie the Unicorn...

[yubszmm]

i love living in the UK where "can he afford the medication?" will never be a question asked by my doctor

[EazyE-Rules]

Thank God Mike didn't watch Kenny throwing a ninja star at butters eye 😂😂

"Who wakes up from a nap missing a kidney"
Doctor Mike clearly doesn't remember Charlie the Unicorn

I always love these videos, so educational and neat to see an expert explain how these things would work

[widowmaker]

The name of the holistic shop keeper always gets me in that episode, Miss Information rofl! Trey and Matt are genius
