Doctor Reacts To Family Guy Medical Scenes

I reacted to Family Guy medical scenes a couple of years ago and you all seemed to enjoy it, so today I decided to react to some more! Today we talk about dog bites, breaking your neck by doing stunts designed for professionals, Stewie's plastic surgery and whether we should give botox to babies, suppositories, liver damage from drinking alcohol, cancer, giving doctor's tips, Stewie taking steroids, and Peter fighting the Chicken!

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!

the "TicktackToe" is called "cross hatch" a common shading method, and it was used in comics to depict bruising or small lacerations when realistic wounds would not be acceptable under the comic book codes of the day. It has become a stylisitic holdover from that time, and is an easy way to depict a minor injury that is easy to replicate on animation cells.

I had a lactation consultant primarily diagnose me, and suggest a treatment plan. I went to my doctor and he said, “I’ve never heard of that, I’ll be right back.”

And he looked it up in some medical journals, printed out the pages for me, highlighted them, and said, “Well, I had never heard of this, but yeah, it’s a thing. And the medication she suggested could work. If you’re comfortable trying it, I’m comfortable with it.”

I LOVED that doctor. He was patient, he was humble, he listened to me, he explained the medication… he was a Godsend. And several months later when I saw him suffering with postpartum depression, he was so gentle, and walked me through treatment options, and strongly suggested therapy in addition to medication. Loved. Loved. Loved him.

The tic-tac-toe squares at 7:12 are callled cross-hatching, it’s an art technique to denote shading/bruising leftover from when cartoons were hand drawn with ink and paint to save time and money before digital art.

Peter : does this get fixed with ice or heat?
Mike : uhhh no

Dr. Mike be laughin' when he sees the characters getting brutally mutilated each time

[Christoph]

2:02 It's funny to see Dr. Mike being so shocked about a cartoon dog biting a cartoon character 😂He has seen way worse in other videos and even in the first two minutes of this video but THAT made him gasp?! 😂

I like how Doctor Mike is professionally explaining ridiculous scenes from cartoons

[pepebotellas]

7:32 I like how mike just keep explaining things while the fight is going brutal

[JenP.R]

0:53 Dr Mike’s editor: blocks out Brian vomiting

Also Dr Mike’s editor: shows peter’s spine broken in 2 pieces

[KageTenshiiRyuu]

I was not expecting to become traumatized by a cartoon baby today.

[SupaDupa]

Anyone wish he reacted to rest of the hernia scene? I would liked to see him breakdown it's accuracy.

[BoboEdits]

0:48 “I’m scared I’m scared” got me laughing 😂

[D-Rock]

7:05 it's called "cross hatching" and is an old comic strip trick to quickly and easily illustrate bruising or dirt.

[Yojo]

Doctor mike: don't google your symptoms
Also doctor mike: 2:31

i love that you mentioned testosterone rage, i work at a T clinic and i can definitely tell when my patients doses need to be adjusted, sometimes they're dose is too high and they complain they're going through puberty again or they're dose is too low and they're still tired or moody.

There is a medical TV show that is on it's last season this year, which would be great for you to review next it is called Doc Martin, it's a British comedy drama, he was a vascular surgeon, but becomes a GP (family medicine Doctor same as you), the show is medically accurate, and to top it off it is hilarious.

I’m an Engineer, all of our tests in college are open book. We are taught to look everything up. The codes and standards we work from change every two to four years, and we look things up so we are using the latest knowledge. And the materials available change constantly. I’d be disappointed if MDs were not looking things up.

8:51 this scene actually scared me/caught me off guard. Just the way his skin flipped was very unsettling

[cnett]

6:31 yep, definitely immediate attention needed. My dad had one he ignored, and we were unaware of, until the rupture stretched more and he had to call an ambulance. They said the hole was about the size of grapefruit I think. It put him into shock and his organs started failing, it was really bad.
SO. DONT. IGNORE. THESE. PROBLEMS!

I like how the title says "terrible medical advice" as if family guy has any good ones 😂
