Dr. Mike is like a shield that takes the brunt of TikTok's insanity and makes it watchable

As a chemist, the “she is getting 87 out of 102 minerals” makes me laugh so much. There are 94 elements out of the 118 on the periodic table found in nature (the rest must be lab created). And trust me out of those 94, there’s a LOT you don’t want in your body

Had a good line from a doctor once. "You will probably live longer if you run a lot, but probably not longer than the time spent on running. So you better like running"

What I don't love about the hydroplaning with the snowboards is that the snowboards float on water but they're strapped to the feet. This can make it difficult to actually get your head above water if you fall in.

Seeing Doctor Mike debunk Tiktok influencer health videos is one of life's greatest joys.

[BaloneyPeep]

seeing his face light up after understanding the joke was everything lmao. Also I absolutely love these videos, they're so fun to watch.

Imagine being a dyslexic doctor and trying to give someone a prescription.

When it comes to the chlorophyll, my mom went through one of those really intense natural medicine stages, and would give me some mixed with water on a regular basis. I remember that it tasted really pleasant, with a mild sweet taste, and it didn't change the texture of the water. And I was a teenager, so I don't remember having any benefits. But really, unless I just got lucky with the mixtures we got, 10/10 would drink it if it had health benefits.

Watching Mike trying to figure out jokes is the most wholesome and adorable thing ever 🥹

So glad to hear you say you'd send someone with intractable migraines and headaches for an MRI. I had them for like over a year and they just put my entire life on hold, i was at the doctors ALL the time, i often even turned up at A&E and STILL no one bothered to send me for an MRI. When I FINALLY got one i got called back the next day. Brain tumour.

WOAH!! i’m studying the cardiovascular system right now for my phlebotomy course, and as i was looking at chronic venous insufficiency, DR MIKE SAID VENOUS INSUFFICIENCY 😂😂 i had to stop the video to type this comment haha!

btw i’ve always loved medicine and i wanted to be a neurosurgeon when i was younger but i have a learning disability in math so big big med school is off the table for me. i chose phlebotomy cus its interesting and it’s a good dip in the medical field without 10000 years of schooling. i also think taking blood is gonna be fun so i’m excited for that ! it’s so fun to come watch new and rewatch older videos of yours because i’ll recognize terms or disorders i’ve been studying and it’s a cool callback !! ((:

Do you know how much I LOVE seeing someone else take that couple of beats to get a joke? **I** am usually the person going, "I don't...um..." ::repeat:: ::think:: And I LOVE you for allowing us to see those moments and demonstrating that, for those of us who don't get a joke immediately...it is not only still funny...but it *wasn't* funny when we didn't understand, and that explaining or giving a moment for it to process is what MAKES it STILL FUNNY, even if we didn't get it instantly. Thank you.

Fun fact the lady with triplets was on at tv show on danish tv about families with triplets. She also help with changed Denmarks law for paid parental leave so that triplets family could get more paid parental leave days, so that both parent could be at home at the same time with out shorting the paid parental leave.

When i worked at a daycare, i would do sinus massages on congested babies so they could drink their bottles. Learning these massages saved my sanity. You can't drink a bottle if you can't breathe out your nose. A hungry baby doesn't sleep. And a hungry, sleepy baby is absolutely miserable.

My brother does a similar thing as a party trick with the bb, since he was basically gunned down by BBs at his 21st in the back without a shirt on for fun, and he didn't get any of them removed, so now if you put a magnet to his back, his entire back looks like ferro-fluid.

I have a friend whose neurologist thought she was exaggerating about her migraines when she finally was able to see a new neuro (because she got better insurance, thanks US healthcare🙄) they immediately ordered an mri and my friend had a tumor that was starting to push on her skull, she had to have brain surgery but she and her awesome mohawk are thriving now!

I’m happy to see Mike being entertaining and educating about medicine. Discovered him recently and he’s my new idol. So genuine and passionate with his job and for us to stay happy and healthy

[J-Tex-Corporation]

I love that Dr Mike is so locked in on being a DR that he misses some of the joke. It's FANTASTIC.

[obygo]

thanks so much for getting straight into the video, that’s why you’re one of the best youtubers

I love Doctor Mike's content he is a certified doctor who tells us about the facts. I love the idea. Have a good day, Doctor Mike hope you get 20M!
