Bear said “dad, I’m the only baby” 😂. But I think he needs a friend!

The dead silence followed by "... I'm gonna delete the reddit..." is the epitome of the human experience on the internet.

0:33 Hitting the funny bone gives your whole arm a dial tone 💀

0:33 The static is a good visual representation of the feeling of pins and needles.

10:28 Did Dr Mike just make a joke?
"Who makes name for organs and nerves?"
"Is therr an ORGANization for that?"

[TinkSalsa]

Mike starting by basically saying "if these aren't good, submit better ones" is hilarious

In some TV show I learned that an air bubble can kill you. When I got an infusion in the hospital I noticed that there was a bubble approaching my arm. I FREAKED OUT. I didn't want to cause drama tho, so I just watched the bubble go inside of me in fear, then I counted like 10 seconds and decided I'm probably fine 😂

Not Dr. Mike dropping everything to show off how proud of a dog dad he is towards the end (not that we're not here for it as well for every other trait of his) 😂 "Look, my son lost a tooth! Ain't it the cutest thing in the world? 💕" 😂😂😂

"My heart is on the other side, didn't notice? I'm leaving" 😂 genius! Never let them know your next move

[nykkiross]

The mayo clinic one sent me 😂 I go to mayo for a lot of specialist care and every time I go without fail I text one of my friends saying "I'm here but I have yet to see any mayo. No ketchup or mustard either, a general lack of condiments I'm disappointed"

[ambarenya]

Every time I see Bear, I am happy. He reminds me of the two Newfoundlands I grew up with. Such sweet, cuddly dogs

[suegeorge]

Doctor Mike, when you mentioned that you would mess with a doctor if your heart was on the other side of your chest, it reminded me of a health care provider who was listening to my lungs to see if I was wheezing, it's my pet peeve when they remove the stethoscope before I have finished exhaling. I don't tell them that I am a retired pediatric nurse...So, I know that they won't be my provider for very long.

[drnol]

Dr. Mike snapping "yeah, we can hear different heart sounds! Here, here, here here here!" 🤣

Animal rescue professional here...
I'm almost always a fan of a single dog getting a friend! It's great for them to have that socialization time with other dogs and also allows them to have someone to interact with when their human(s) are unavailable.
Typically opposite sex pairs tend to work just a tiny bit better (though individual personality is a factor). Also, I'm not sure how old Bear is, but keep in mind any major discrepancies in energy levels. A low-energy senior dog, for example, wouldn't likely want to deal with a high-energy puppy (but of course the giant breeds tend to be lower energy puppies). And be sure to check out rescues! So many amazing giant breed dogs out there looking for homes. You could even foster first to see how Bear does with having a second dog in the home. :)

On the "Mr Pepper", if he was in the UK or Australia, that would be a promotion to surgeon

[pioAdrenalina]

Here's something I always wondered: through my life I have been through A LOT; streetfights, falling from heights and sometimes crashing my way down, high speed crashes, stupid ideas in general, hit on the leg by a high compression motorcycle kickstar kicking back multiple times... you name it. NEVER have I ever broken a bone or even cracked one. At the same time, in my first days of live I was hit by a severe urine infection which just wouldn't go away and the doctors fearing for my kidneys at one point. Inspite of that, I never had kidney stones or any other kidney-related problems. Wonder what makes my bones so strong and my kidneys so lucky?

[matthewgraves]

I have dextracardia, and no doctor has ever noticed from listening to my heart sounds. I've even had doctors tell me I don't have it afterward, but it's a little harder to argue with an image.

[gayathrisrinivasan]

Dr.Mike is getting pretty good with understanding memes....him trying to decode memes is a meme itself😂

[sargeabernathy]

As someone with Dextrocardia: Yes. Especially if they’re an intern trying to read an X-ray of my chest. They get so confused and concerned and I’m just there grinning like an idiot.

There's a county in Ireland called Mayo, everytime I heard the Mayo clinic I thought Ireland had this really respected medical research facility that only people in America talked about.
