Doctor: "So. You... you a lil' fruity?"
Fruity indeed
I laughed so hard i sneezed pls-

As a smart introvert, I don't think you understand how much I love radiology.🤭
Right? Sitting in a dark room all day? COUNT ME IN!!! 😂
Mood
This sounds interesting.
Can confirm, my office is nestled in a reading room and it's so dark and quiet and I love it
I could probably do radiology. I already sit in a dark room all day, might as well be paid for it.
I remember how stressed I was to come out to my doctor. I was worrying about the appointment for days. Turns out he's more supportive than my parents which is nice.
Fatherless Behavior
Anything that doesn't suit your opinion is fatherless behavior apparently
@@star5384yeah
Telling your doc you're asexual is usually a fun trip through a physical investigation of what's wrong with you to blood tests to find out why you don't want to bone people to a Very Serious conversation about how you need to see a therapist because sex is vital to a healthy life. Just... love it so much.
I had a very similar experience, my doctor also told me “you’ll grow out of it”….
Oh my god that sounds awful
Like why can’t people just accept it’s a real thing
this is exactly why I'm afraid to tell my docter that I'm ace :/
i haven't had them ask me anything related to that so far though.... but I'm turning 18 next year so they may bring it up. I don't know what I'll say.
@@wolfwhisper40 You're in a good place in a sense, because you know you're ace and that there's nothing wrong with you (I didn't have this knowledge back in the day, because no one knew what an asexual was.) It sucks to get pathologized--it's embarassing and uncomfortable and it takes up time you could be using to address your actual medical concerns--but you'll ultimately be okay. Just tell your doc and see how they react. The worst case is that you'll find out your doctor isn't the right fit for you. Best case is they'll be great about it. Probably they'll be somewhere between. ♥ Hang in there.
Refuse the tests. Don't let ANYONE discriminate you. Granted, the first time I heard about asexuality, I was confused too. It was as if someone had told me they don't like food. No sweets, okay. Dislike spicy foods, sure. But... generally don't enjoy eating? However, sex is NOT vital, so your doctor has no right to "investigate" unless you explicitly ask them to do so. I have long since come to realize that asexuality is just as natural, though maybe not as common a variation as homo- and bisexuality. Just tell your doc to pretty please educate themselves first and then start taking care of what parts of your health may be of real concern.

I'm glad that you're so open and fine with patients being a part of the LGBTQ+ community. It's so nerve-racking and scary coming out to people, and you always have to make sure that it's safe to come out, so when someone's supportive it's really heartwarming and a lot more comfortable being around them. I hate how we have to be so wary. I hate how people despise us.

@@shaan9687 bro you have a fortnite banner stfu
@@Wanderer5260 🤓
The best question a doctor ever asked me was, "do you have sex with men, women, or a little of both?" I hadn't come out yet, but that question let me know it was safe to do so. And then we didn't waste time with discussions about pregnancy tests and condom use with men. My care was tailored to ME. You would not believe how many doctors discriminate against LGBTQ people, and if you live in an area where you don't have a lot of choice in who your doctor is, it can be scary and dangerous to come out to a doctor.
The fact that this is such a rare case is saddening🥺
And then there’s the people who never had sex or only had sex with one person but is still gay/bi
@@thewriter2634 You know it's not an "argument" right. These reasons are only given because close minded people force lgbtq+ people to legitimize their existence. Guess what, their existence is valid no matter what and not something to be argued about or to be justified.
@@astridonghena9860 *Are these other things I listed legitimized too? Because these meet the same standards.*
It's sad that it's rare. My sister is married to a woman and it happened several times that doctors asked her if she was sexually active (she said yes,) ask her what birth control method she was using (none) and if she actually want to conceive right now (no at the time - her wife is currently pregnant though) and then was lectured for it!

@@thatwaterriver3824i forgot what its stands for but its basically a policy that healthcare workers are required to folllow in which they cannot disclose patient information with anyone besides the patient themselves
@@thatwaterriver3824Patient privacy law, prevents medical providers and therapists from disclosing your information to anyone you didn't consent giving it to
@@thatwaterriver3824It is when doctors or anyone in the medical profession can not tell anything about a patient to anyone one else. But I think if a patient is suicidal I think they would need to tell or they give permission to tell others.

I'm a gay man. I was calling around to find a personal physician a few years ago. I asked an office assistant if the doctor was LGBTQ friendly and the response was, "Why should that matter?! We treat all our clients equally." This was a red flag. The conversations just aren't the same. The office assistant's response sent me right on to the next doctor's listing. I've been very fortunate with public clinics to always get amazing care, but I have gay friends with private doctors who have had sti's misdianosed for weeks due to communication issues.
this dude gives out personal comfort and positive vibes
I've always heard that it's called "Chicken pox" because it looks like a chicken pecked at you thus pocking(pitting) your skin. This explanation may or may not be accurate but it sounds plausible.
I heard it was because when you pluck a chicken's feathers, it raises the skin, thus looking like pox.
in THE NETHERLANDS we actually say chicken skin, because of that (instead of goose bumps) :)
I heard it was because of chicken feather bumps
I heard that it might have originally been called “itching pox,” which later morphed into “chicken” pox just because language is weird.

I told my old doc if I ever decided to have sex, she would probably be the third person I’d tell 😹
You wouldn't get through the first question "are you sexually active?" :D
My doctor didn't even ask me if I was having sex, she just started listing things that needed to happen if I was sexually active and waited for me to contradict her, which I didn't because I was waiting for a question, so she just gave me a look and ordered some tests

Doctor Mike I came out to my Primary Care as genderqueer/nonbinary and asked for a breast reduction. He’s been incredibly supportive and referred me to a local and well respected plastic surgeon. 😊
wait....a breast reduction? he gave you a recommendation for a breast reduction after how many visits?
@@sandygonsalves4646 Please consider that cis people (not trans) also request and are given breast reductions, without seeing a doctor for an incredibly long time (as many people imply that trans individuals need to). If someone wants a change to their body because it's causing pain or discomfort, I do not particularily see the reason its so bad.
@@ev_rlasting There is a thing called Body integrity disorder in which a person can have a strange fixation on wanting a missing limb. Should we then just cut of their arm and leg to alleviate their discomfort?
There is a difference between reducing someone breast / cutting them off due to a physical medical problem, - such as tumours, or spinal cord issues - vs cutting them off due to a mental condition that was likely not extensively explored OR could very well debilitate over time.
I read a story of someone who knew a 16 year old girl who was convinced she was trans. She was approved for a mastectomy after 1-2 visits to the doctor. Weeks after her breasts were removed, she came back to said clinic begging for her breasts back as she realized she wasn't trans. And you REALLY think approving a surgery to take
away breast tissue for a mental condition not properly explored is ethical?
@@sandygonsalves4646 I didn't say that at all, I would appreciate if you didn't put words in my mouth.
Cosmetic breast reductions exist and are accepted in society. Gender criticals only take issue when it involves trans people having autonomy over their own bodies.
For the record your argument's logic implies you don't believe any cosmetic surgery or permanent cosmetic treatment should exist, along with tattoos and other body mods.
You could argue all are caused by body dysmorphia, other self image issues or self harm. But nobody argued that. Because our autonomy is only questioned when we are trans.
Additionally, if you don't have a doctorate yourself (or even if you do- you've never MET this person) I'm confused as to why you immediately assume to "know better" about a patient than their own doctor
@@ev_rlasting "I didn't say that at all, I would appreciate if you didn't put words in my mouth."
I didn't say you did. I said it to illustrate a point.
As to the rest of your comment:
First of all if you're referring to the cutting off of breasts as "cosmetic" , you're only further invalidating it as a medical need. Nice going.
Second, in no way did my comment argue against tattoos or any cosmetic alteration. What I argued against is the practice of mutilating someone's body after they've had only ONE visit to the doctor and no extensive history of therapeutic counseling to support that getting a breast reduction or mastectomy is the best course of action for that individual. Same as you wouldn't cut off a person's arm just cause they asked for it, you don't cut off a person's breasts just cus they asked for it.
" I'm confused as to why you immediately assume to "know better" about a patient than their own doctor"
It doesn't take a being a doctor to know what is ethical and what isn't. The practice of cutting off breasts or doing bottom surgery on someone who had only ONE or TWO visits to the doctor about their GD, is WHOLY unethical.
on that second question that's what I'm actually gonna go into, that is when i get in the program "hopefully" next fall, have to get the pre reqs done first. From watching your videos you have been part of the influence for me to go back to school to further my medical career.

To answer the question of, how many hairs are on the body… (As a licensed Cosmetologist in 6 states over the last 35 years), I can answer for the scalp. There are 3 numbers based upon your natural hair color… redheads have approx 70-80k hair follicles, brunettes 90-100k and blondes 100-140k. In addition it’s important to note that blondes have the thinnest diameter strands of hair and redheads the thickest diameter. Always love your videos Dr Mike.

I remember the first time a doctor asked me about my sexuality. I told them I am bi, and I automatically got a super judgy conversation about how they weren’t sure if I was being honest about only having one partner. “We’ve just seen so much crazy stuff with bisexuals.” Then they made me pay $400 for “mandatory STD screening”. When I asked why, they said it was company policy for bisexual people (or basically anyone who wasn’t straight). Of course, this wasn’t disclosed before my exam with a doctor who was way too rapey to be working with people with vaginas. Since then, I’ve made sure to screen my medical team members before I even set up the first appointment.
Oh, my God. That's horrible. I hope you have a different doctor now. NO doctor should ever treat a patient that way.
@@antonluvs I do, and he’s amazing! He was even willing to let me interview him before the first appointment, and has been very respectful about every part of my identity.

5:16 the way my psychology teacher explained drinking tolerance is that someone who drinks a lot has more practice for predicted situations, but still won't react well if you were to suddenly throw something at them. That's why drunk driving is always a bad idea. Driving is full of small, but unexpected situations. You need to quickly decide how hard to brake, and when to change lanes. While drunk, you can't do that as well.

You can’t grow taller, no matter how much dairy you eat or drink, in the end it’s your genetics that determine your height, sleep can help but anything else eh
@@hannahyolen5686 watch the video, doc mike is taller than both of his parents. So its not just genetics. Even my 2 younger brothesr are taller than any of my family member. Its sleep and nutrients.
@@fynkozari9271 sleep and nutrition can alter your height but overall your genes dictate your height, it doesn’t even matter if your parents are small, it always depends on the genes, plus you don’t have to believe me but it is scientifically proven by health care workers and if you choose not to believe that, than that’s your belief.
I finally feel free to comment the fact that I’m desperately in love with this chap 🤣🤣
i was diagnosed with anxiety and depression, and i was talking to my doctor about getting a therapist. at some point i remember mentioning that i identified as non-binary, and immediately she started listing and giving me the numbers of tons of therapists who specialize in gender. i tried to explain to her that i was comfortable with my gender , but she was set on thinking that it was the cause of my mental health issues (it was stress from school and my best friends attempt) I'm no longer seeing her!
Me watches Dr. Mike one time, “ Oh this is a cool doctor content creator.” My fifth time watching Dr. Mike, “ CHEST COMPRESSIONS! CHEST COMPRESSIONS! CHEST COMPRESSIONS!”
This is me daily. Like I hear his voice in my head saying "chest compressions" randomly. Its great
Same
Me, watching a medical drama 😂
He can’t not say chest compressions when he react to grey anatomy or the good 😌 doctor
Hey y’all! So, I just found out that my grandpa, after radiation and chemotherapy, his cancer went away! I am so thankful for this and he is the 49th person to ever get it. So, it is very rare and he survived. Also, I want to become a pediatrician or a family physician. I am only in middle school but I really want to do that and go to Vanderbilt.
Edit: I love your vids Mike!
That’s great news! I’m very happy for you and your family. Thank you for sharing such great news. ❤️
Even tho were strangers glad to here he survived Im pretty sure were around the same age SO DONT GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAMS (I wanna be a video game devoloper or a artist
Nice!!
Congratulations!!!
Congrats!
I think I learn more from this man than I do from my teachers
on the topic of coming out, i remember i came out to my younger cousin while we were shoveling snow. she shrugged it off, said “okay”, and just went back to shoveling snow. i think that was the best reaction i got, and i really needed it.
I remember when my psychiatrist asked me if I was dating, and I told him I was seeing a girl. He went "Hell yes" and gave me a high five. Maybe he was just happy my depression was getting better lol.
That is kinda awsome ro read about to be honest :)
aww, I would be thrilled to get that reaction from anyone.
“Stay happy, and healthy”

Edit: Also, “Chest Compressions”
CHEST COMPRESSIONS! 🩺

Some doctors react better to coming out than others. Had a couple of bad experiences. Happy with my current MD.
Every one here in da comments are so nice and relatable omg! 💅☺ I love Dr. Mike am subscribed!!!!

dr mike: not radiology because of lack of patient interaction.
me: I want to be a radiologist because I get to stand behind a shield, interact with nobody and pour radiation all over them.
Oooooooo yes I'd love that
Pour radiation 👁👄👁
As good as this joke is, we have to recognize and make it common knowledge that radiography technology nowadays is the safest it has ever been. I oftentimes see many misconceptions about modern radiography techniques people still hold true
My sister offered to pay for my college if I went to nurse school and I can't be a nurse. I have autism and can't handle the bad news or help comfort people like that, and I don't want to be around poop and vomit
you'd be a radiographer then
Happy Happy To See You Anytime !!!
i love you forever ♾ #@!
I enjoy your videos keep up the good job
For all y’all that are short (like me) and clicked on this video and said to yourself “How am I going to grow taller” It will be answered at 6:42.
Thanks🙏
Thank You
Would you guys say I’m tall if I’m 5,2ish at 11 y/o
@@davidbustamante7278 yes
@@ninjaboi1312 oh that was fast thanks
Doctor Mike: The best way to get taller is to sleep enough.
*Me watching this video at 12 a.m: 👁👄👁
My mom actually does radiology! Her love for medicine rubbed off on me too, and now I never shut up about biology
i would be 100% comfortable coming out to this man
I wish mike was my doctor, I love his personality, he’s respectful, kind, and seems like a really good person, it’s a shame I can’t have him for my appointments and such, he deserves his place in this world, he’s earned it.
i love how dr. mike is so passionate and enthusiastic. it’s so much fun to watch his videos, i always feel a little bit better
The, "Walking Upright" track was fire!!! 4:18
With every patient interaction he grows stronger.
The problem with cell phones for the elderly is that they don't carry them with them the way us younger folks do. I am a caregiver in a senior living facility and all of them have cell phones, but they leave them on the charger unless they go out, so I think having a life alert necklace or bracelet is best in case of a fall in their apartment.
“I feed off patient interaction” -Literally every doctor and scientist
Doctor yeah not scientist
@@JonahNelson7 Oh yes scientists as well, trust me, first hand experience. /gen
Also i don't appreciate the call out. /j /s
my doctor gives me a suit with tight ropes and they inject something to my arm, they say I'm crazy and I need medication but I can't understand them or the doctors, and I just laughed it off
@@joda8737
Really? /gen
I wanna be a scientist, like in the medical field, but I also don't know what to expect /also gen
Man, a dark room AND I get to be alone?!? HECK YES! Sign me up for radiology!
I had to come out to my doctor (family doctor practice) due to a medical condition and he was very professional and provided excellent treatment and advice.
The height one is really funny to me. My mom is 4'11 and my dad is 5'3 and i'm 5'7 I think I've maxed out because I'm already towering over them.
I'm 15 and 5"4 been that way for the past year and a half😂my mom is 5"2 and my dad is 5"10 feel like i stopped growing idk sucks
@@Billyyezzur don’t worry, I bet you will still grow some more. When I was your age I was the exact same height and now I’m 5’11
wait what your parents are whaatttt
LUCKY😭 my mom is 5’2 and my dad is 5’6 and yet I’m only 4’11 💀 but that really is funny.
@@jeremyroberts8822 how old r u now?
My mom (gynecologist/sexologist) and i (just her lgbtq+ kid lmao) were talking about respectful ways to approach the subject of sexuality, and we came up with "do you have penetrative sex or not?", and then asking them to elaborate if necessary. It is the best way we came up with without immediately assuming someone's sexual orientation or gender identity!
this is a great idea! as a medical student i've been thinking about this so thank you for bringing this up
I like this better than "do you have sex with men or women" because it might feel like you're invalidating your own or your partners' identity. I think what you're saying makes sense!
"what is your sexuality?"- also a viable option
yeah, but then you still don't know if the person could be pregnant, rule out certain STDs or whatever. Just straight up ask: What's your sexuality?
Or just ask them what they're sexual preference is. Seems kind of a roundabout way to get to the same answer.
I am a specialist in radiology and I never worked in a "dark" room and tbh I had way too much contact with patients than I'd love to. Ultrasound, interventional radiology and so on, just not my cup of tea. It's just great to use advanced technology and computers to analyze problems and help other physicians and patients - in peace.
omg someone who’s actually talks about food intolerances, i’m so so glad. i used to think i was allergic to eggs, but i quickly found out that i could eat egg and not get an allergic reaction. i just have egg intolerance.
"Get enough sleep"
Me, currently a student: Funny joke 😀
🤔 I got nine hours of sleep every night when I returned to university full-time to get my BA and teaching credentials as a single mother of a toddler, while working part-time. (Very grateful for a 60 hour a week childcare grant!) I still got nine hours of sleep when I was part-time grad student, while teaching full-time-now married with three children. I couldn't imagine thinking clearly throughout those long days without enough sleep!
@@macherie1234 ok we get it cherie you slept well. a lot of us don't get that luxury.
@@moppupaws Sleep wasn't a luxury, it was an absolute necessity. I truly cannot function without a minimum of eight hours on average. I do know others who do truly do well on 5.5 or 6 hours. There wasn't much time for anything other than work, study and parenting during those years. I guess I'd encourage people to find what amount is necessary for them and do what they can to get those hours of sleep.
@@macherie1234 that's the thing. We don't do well. The fact of the matter is that for many of us the weight of our responsibilities makes us obligated or even encouraged to lose sleep to fulfill them. Sleep is a necessity for everyone, and it's good you managed to balance your busy life while still getting adequate rest. But it's not the same for everyone, and one experience will not invalidate another.
