There is actually an in-show reason why House knows so many languages. His father was in the military and he and his family moved around to various countries when House was growing up. He’s also a certified genius with an extremely obsessive personality.
@@anthonyferreira5233 yea.. but the previous comment wasnt saying that with reference to this clip, it was in response to house supposedly knowing every language.
@@GlorifiedGremlin Various characters throughout the show say that he is a genius, even those who don’t like him (which is a lot of people). But besides that, there are references in the show to his incredibly high IQ.
The inhaler thing is actually fairly believable. I have a friend who saw a patient in clinic and the patient was insistent that the inhaler he had to help him deal with allergy-induced asthma wasn’t working. After a LENGTHY conversation it turned out the patient was using his inhaler… by spraying it on the cat. He thought that since the cat was causing his allergy the solution was to spray the cure on the cat
I was confused by his certainty too, it takes about a year of working with patients to grasp that they do, in fact, make these sorts of mistakes and misunderstandings frequently
That is pretty hilarious I’ll admit, I never watched this show, but when I saw the lady with the asthma puff using it wrong, (sorry for not knowing the real name, so sorry) I was done😤 first time I saw that scene, I was literally thinking “ok this lady is so dumb, she needs to go back to school” This is my opinion so don’t hound me for it😓
Patient: *sprays inhaler on neck* Dr. Mike: “There’s images on the bottle of what you’re supposed to do. That would never happen.” I work in the field of human factors. We test usability of medical devices for pharmaceutical companies seeking FDA clearance for their products. And as someone working in this field, I have to say, that absolutely HAS HAPPENED. I’ve only been in the field for a few months and I’ve already seen that and crazier. People are SO BAD at comprehending (or even looking at!!) instructions. Humans are fascinating.
@@brandondelinsky9238 Unfortunately not that I know of. My line of work is highly confidential so I'm not sure how many details someone would be able to share.
Agreed. Not only are people capable of incredible levels of stupidity, some simply refuse to even read. I work in a travel agency, and when we advertise group tours many of the questions that pour in have to do with information that's explicitly stated in the ad. So with this woman the most plausible explanation is that she never bothered with instructions, and just went with how she thought the inhaler worked based on the spraying part.
also dr mike was crazy to expect empathy! XD what show did he think he was watching? XD not the show where in episode one he tells his students that one was chosen because she's hot, one was chosen because his father asked for a favor and the last one because he has a criminal record so he might not mind breaking into people's homes for a positive reason....
@@ZombiZohm Houses reply: "Well that's a rather silly question isn't it. You wouldn't want the teeny tiny baby size, you'd want the itty-bitty fetus size."
As a character, House was based on Sherlock Holmes. That is why so many episodes are treated as a mystery and not just diagnoses and treatment. And like Holmes, House can be abrasive and really only wants to take a case if the finds it interesting.
Who was the detective that both of them were based on? Dupin, or something like that? The stories he was in describe him as almost having supernatural abilities.
"There's images on the bottle, that's never going to happen". Doctor Mike is a doctor for real. My sister is a pharmacist and sort of had to sigh and roll her eyes between laughs during this scene because "The ridiculous of it is, you wouldn't believe how many customers we get that really do stuff like this, and we have to really be patient and talk them through it"
I have a number of friends who are nurses. They have the best stories. One of the most memorable was a lady who wanted to whiten her teeth for a wedding. She put household bleach in a mouth tray.
@@falconeer99 ... right now, I'm sitting here trying to decipher whether this feeling is watching the bar trying to go into the ground, or just tired of stepping over it anymore. Bleach? I mean, come on... just use vinegar. It can't possibly taste worse. You know what, on second thought... use the bleach. Please. Lots and lots of bleach.
Lmao I’m in pharmacy school right now and they actually showed that clip in class in my first semester. As much as I hate to say it, it really does happen.
The clinic hours of House are truly the best parts! My favorite is the teeny, tiny, badly coffins, coming in fire-engine red, or rubber ducky yellow And the “we have a neurological problem here”
myfavorite was moron with a broken fingerwhen Cuddy preapares for the worst... and then the moron comes out of the examination room with House, laughing and in the best mood...
I know Dr. Mike wanted House to be empathetic, and it's probably the ethical, right thing to do, but him ripping her to shreds was SO much more satisfying to watch than him being understanding would have been.
7:13 I laughed so hard when he asked Dr House to handle this with some empathy. I couldn't remember what happened, but I knew House could not do that in any situation
Do not mess with kids when House is near as he likes kids and this mom was just asking for House to go off on her. He flat out told her why vaccines were a good thing cause her baby was sick. The mom asked what did she have which House just said in his 'are you stupid' tone A Cold. This mom was gonna kill her kid just because she didn't believe that the vaccines worked. what an moron
As someone who has watched House and knows how the scene is going to unfold, it is hilarious watching Dr. Mike guess what potential illness a patient can have while House is going galaxy brain on them.
A Chinese UA-camr reacted to the Asian girl's scene. Her mother was complaining of a cold in Mandarin while the girl was lying in her translation. Him knowing Mandarin means he could tell she's lying immediately. It's an awesome detail honestly.
@@andrestamayo9832 Unfortunately youtube just auto deletes it when I try post a like but if you search for "Chinese Reacts to House MD Mandarin Clip" it should show up ( Chinese with Jessie)
And later, when he heard the daughter say in Mandarin,'he gave you the wrong medicine'. Only for him to pointing she gave her mother the wrong pills. And he clarified that while he's not fluent in Mandarin, he can count to ten, ask to do the bathroom, and then he said to the mom 'your going to be a grandmother soon'. Little detail, but he used the term for grandma on dad, not on mom's side, which, that is an error, but it makes sense in this context. House doesn't know the language fluently, which fits in this context, cause if he was only taught beginners basics for any given language and especially if he was trained in medicine when becoming a doctor it makes sense that he can understand partially what the mom is saying. Even the sentence the daughter said about him giving her the wrong pills sounds like what you would find in a beginner's language book. I really do like this scene. It's funny, and it's actually accurate Mandarin instead of just some shows that don't even bother with accuracy.
the stuff Dr. House says to patients is basically all the stuff that EMS and ER staff want to say to patients but don’t because we wanna keep our jobs lol
@@theiran hospitals are a business, and no business wants their employees to be deliberate assholes to their customers unless it's part of a very niche gimmick like that restaurant where the staff are dicks on purpose. All you'd do is scare even more people away from going to the hospital if they think they'll get berated by the people supposedly there to help them.
2 paramedics had no problem voicing theirs. A few years ago i was getting assessed for epilepsy and i went through a stage of having prolonged absent seizures. I was having one of these episodes at work one day and this time i was taken to hospital. My manager called for an ambulance and the lady on the phone told her to lay me down and when the paramedics turned up, my seizures had stopped and i was in a hysterical state because it happened, they took one look at me and said i was faking despite being told the seizures had stopped. My mam was furious.
@@Aimz360 That wouldn't happen in Canada. Not sure where you're from but I can guarantee you that paramedics here have to take patients even if they think they're faking.
House's lack of empathy when seeing clinic patients is deliberate. Not only does he make every attempt to distance himself from his patients so that he can avoid getting too involved or attached, he *haaaaaates* clinic duty (if I remember correctly, he has to do a certain amount of clinic hours every week as part of his agreement for Cuddy to basically ignore his shenanigans) and will do whatever he can to get out of having to do it.
He basically tries to get thrown out of clinic duty. But does good job on paitients, minus terribad bedside manner. Hospital kepps him anyway, bacause still needs doctors :D
That is what is missing in the first clip, with the inhaler. He had a wager with Cuddy when, if he did not insult any clinic patients that day, he would not have to do any clinic hours for the next week or so. That clip ends with the woman storming out of the room without ever showing how House actually reacted to her: "do I look stupid?" display of using the inhaler as a perfume. You only saw him thinking: "Okay, I lost the bet, but it's worth it".
@@mechadrake The whole premise of House relies upon the man being so good at his job that he can be a total jackass to everyone and get away scot free. IRL any field has these kinds of people, people so essential that as long as they do their job they can do nearly anything they want without repercussions.
He hopes to get sued so he doesn’t have to do any more of it. He must do clinic hours as a part of his job and apparently has been ignoring it for a long time, so he’s multiple hundred hours behind.
The scene where House reveals he speaks mandarin is great, because not only did he notice the physical symptoms of the lady, he understood everything she said but was playing along with the daughter wondering why she was translating wrongly. The "super depressed" might've give it away for the audience. Sometimes I wish there would be like a prequel series or a few episodes at least of young House, because I have the feeling that House's bedside manners became worse after what happened to his leg. He doesn't appreciate people that beat around the bush or try to diagnose themselves for righteous reasons due to how dangerous the outcome can be. The few patients that he treats nicely during clinic duty, like the pr0stitute (I think she was one), shows that he can be nice with people.
@@ilenastarbreeze4978 There was a really wholesome scene with House diagnosing Self Gratification Disorder in a young child. He kept the little girl's mom from acting on a false diagnosis of epilepsy, was silly and kind to the girl, gave her a lollipop, and gave her a high five. For as much flak as House gets for being a jerk to adults, he always makes a point to be kind and nice to children.
@@jewelmillian3719 OH MY GOSH YES! Also I now need the idiot sandwich meme to have House's face photoshopped over Gordon's and WIlson or someone else on the team's face to be on the girl's face lol
I've watch all but the last 2 episodes twice. I have this thing that if I'm really liking a show and know it's going to end then I won't watch the ending so that I can pretend it's still going on.
All praise for doctor mike being a doctor, a boxer, and a youtuber that posts twice a week. Full respect to doctor mike and congrats on 10 Million you deserve it. Have a nice day:)
Full respect to his team of probably around 20+ people, as well. Not to take anything away from Mike, but there are many people working for him behind the scenes to make all of this happen and they deserve recognition :)
House's language skills come from his backstory as an army brat, travelling around the world. He know a bit of a lot of languages, just enough to get by. As for knowing the girl wanted birth control, that's just from experience.
Also he doesn't speak mandarin he only knows enough to tell "I gave you the wrong pills" from "He gave you the wrong pills". And also for very house reasons "Your daughter is pregnant".
I always figured he knew the kid was just looking for birth control pills because he understood what the mom was really telling her kid to say, and thus the kid was lying about the menstrual symptoms.
Well that does happen, it can even look like a pregnancy depending on where the tumor is located. I know because my mom watched an awkward interaction between a person with a tumor and someone who assumed she was pregnant...
Not ridiculous. Some ovarian tumours produce bHCG, which is the same hormone produced by the placenta that is detected by pregnancy tests. If a patient has high levels of bHCG, and you're pretty sure they're not pregnant, ovarian tumour would be the first thing you'd suspect (for example, if it's an elderly lady). Fun fact: some testicular tumours also produce bHCG.
Doctor Mike it's good to know you ask your patients what they think is their problem. I told my last doctor I had a sinus infection, which I've had many, and she told me "isn't it funny how somebody who has never attended medical school seems to be able to diagnose their own illnesses." Uhh yeah, I switched doctors.
Right!? Like, well doc, I've had one before, and this feels the same, I have a fever, but sure, clearly someone who isn't inside my body getting signals from my nervous system knows better than me."
it's super frustrating when doctors think they know your symptoms better than you do. my husband has legit had a constantly running nose for TEN YEARS. all day. every single day. in every kind of environment. he's tried all the allergy meds and none of them work. yet every time he sees a new ENT hoping to get a real diagnosis, it's "mUsT bE aLlErGiEs!" the last one finally did a CT scan of his whole head and whaddya know, the root of his wisdom tooth is perforating his sinus cavity, causing INFLAMMATION.
I have lots of health issues and I literally had to have my dad come and help (he looks imposing being 6'1 and 350lbs) for them to take anything seriously and they only listened to what he said and ignored me. I'm 23y/o, now, I was 20y/o then
I had someone sick at work and sent them home. My district manager had a talk with me about “diagnosing when I wasn’t a doctor.” But I also wasn’t a professional plumber when the store flooded through the drains. Obviously it couldn’t have come from the drains even with photographic evidence. 🙃 Thankfully she’s not in my district anymore and I’m glad you went to a different doctor.
I'm glad to say I've had a gp that takes his patients seriously all my life. there was a year when I had like 3 middle ear infections, and the 3rd time I went to the doctor before it hurt badly (for me, a middle ear infection starts with a stiff jaw and a headache, then stinging in the ear that gradually gets worse), there was little more than an occasional sting yet. he looked into my ear and said he didn't see anything, I explained why I was so sure and he looked again. that time, he did spot the infection that I was right about, and prescribed me antibiotics :). to those who've never had a middle ear infection, as it progresses it starts feeling like someone stabbed a glowing hot knife into your ear and is twisting it. also, an untreated middle ear infection has a decent chance of damaging your hearing.
You know, many years ago, I wouldve agreed with Mike that these stories are unrealistic. But after basically breathing askreddit’s doctors corner and talking to professionals on campus, I’ve realized that people are BEYOND stupid sometimes. And I think anyone who’s had a job dealing with the public could give you a list of examples.
I work in the lab and see plenty of people come into the ER for very stupid things, or because they're just very stupid people. Further, I understand that the average person probably doesn't know anything about basic medicine or health science, so the person with below-average intelligence should be treated with some grace. Still frustrating af tho. lol
That show was written after real cases of people dying to rare diseases only to be figured out on autopsy. Of course these clinic duty episodes also grab from real medical anecdotes and real people being low IQ.
ngl I think something like this would scare people off from feeling like they need to go to the ER like imagine feeling like you need to seek Emergency Care and the people who take you in think you're an idiot for panicking.
I work retail with plans to go into the medical field. I have learned very well that the average intelligence means some people fall far below that line. I'm currently working at a place that sells coffee and coffee machines. I have had a customer complain to me that the touch-to-open technology one of our machines has is too complicated. It also took her a week to figure out how to take the water tank off and then place it back on. But she can't do the crank-to-open because her husband doesn't understand that. They were some of my higher-intelligence customers of the day.
Actually the episode with the zinc--intoxication helped doctors here in Germany solving a case where the patient intoxicated himself acidentally with a denture adhesiv creme with zinc, which led to a severe lack of copper. I heard it in a podcast whose titel translates to "Adventure diagnosis - the medical thriller-podcast". it's very interesting.
Is it a German podcast and you translated the name? Or an english podcast. It is so sad though that there aren't English subtitles for some shows because I seriously would love a reaction from someone like dr. mike to like ... Dr. Klein (A German hospital series about a pediatrician who has dwarfism - she is called Dr. klein and at the beginning of the show she and her family move in to her father and her younger sister because the father started showing signs of dementia. And she starts at that hospital there as one of the ''head doctors'' )
@@lunarl She is interesting. And the Show is too. The Name of the Actress is Christine Urspruch. She played for example the "Sams" in the "Das Sams" Movies which are based on a childrens book series and also she played a doctor in one of the Versions of "Tatort" which is a crime Show Here in Germany
9:10 "he speaks every language, he knows every body part...." Of course, he's Doctor House. The show was originally conceived as a medical twist on Sherlock Holmes. A fictional brilliant detective who is a walking encyclopedia. It only makes sense that Doctor House would exhibit the same abilities.
It's not effective, though. Berating people feels good but it just causes them to dig in their heels. Empathy is the only way to break through to them.
I am of two minds. On the one hand, I think anti-vaxxers with no kids but who are planning to have them absolutely need to get a verbal smack across the head. Refusing to vax your child might not be pure murder, but it's kind of like putting spikes all around their cradle. On the other hand, an anti vaxxer who already has a child needs to be managed more delicately. This child is actively in danger and anything that could increase the chances that the parent stays calm and listens to you needs to be done.
@@BlaineTog Tell about all the crazy antivaxxs you have seen who actually listened to reason because of this, them take off the list all the ones you just made up.
I do love how Mike was thinking of actual reasons the chinese mom could have the symptoms that the daughter was reporting. And he was confused by why House immediately knew it was the daughter trying to get the pill. But if House speaks mandarin, then he knew from the first moment that the daughter was lying about what her mom was saying.
0:55 I mean a doctor once told me that a patient sprayed her inhaler to the air near her nose and then breathed in. Not as crazy as the woman in House MD, but really close haha
As for House speaking several languages, not only he is highly intelligent, but he was an "army brat", he lived in several different places, so that could also explain this particular knowledge.
US army base in Beijing? There's no base in Taiwan or Singapore either. And if dad somehow got sent to HK when it was British ... well, the people there didn't speak Mandarin.
A few years ago, I was in the hospital with a pericardial effusion. They couldn't figure out why I would have developed that. Then I had a blood clot. Then a plural effusion. They of course were treating the symptoms but still trying to figure out WHY. Then a Dr came into my room and said "we think you may have Lupus" and I nearly died laughing because...House.
0:23 I have asthma. My main trigger for asthma attacks are smoke. My dad smokes and I’ve told him so many times to stop. Even when a tiny bit of smoke enters my lungs, I start having an asthma attack and become unable to breathe. I also went to a camp recently and was forced to go around the campfire. I asked if I could skip but I got forced to. I had an asthma attack within the first 10 seconds. I wish people would stop (knowingly) giving me asthma attacks.
From interviews and commentaries, I can tell you that the clinic patients in House are actually REAL doctor's experiences with various patients from around the US. House had a few doctors on hand that would write up an injury or condition and give a list of symptoms based on that condition. Those same doctors were then asked to give accounts of the most ridiculous patient encounters they have had or had heard about. All of these patient encounters that House has during his clinic hours are real stories.
@@cmpvariety1764 I cannot say what is and is not true. All I am attempting to say that it is well documented that the writers of House relied heavily on actual doctors for the medical side of things. And in one of the episode commentaries, it is stated that all of the clinic cases that House dealt with were pulled from stories that doctors encountered or heard from their peers. I have worked as an EMT and an ER tech. In my time, I have seen a LOT of people do some really weird and downright stupid things. I am not and never was a doctor, but I could easily have supplied the writers with ER stories that could easily have been turned into a clinic setting.
@@victorhayes5980 you should do a UA-cam thing like a UA-cam channel and say some of the stories if you don't get in trouble for it you know HIPAA. I love the medical field I've loved the medical field ever since I was a kid. I really wanted to get into the medical field unfortunately a blind person cannot do that. It sucks. I wanted to be a nurse when I was little but yeah it's impossible. At least right now it is anyway. When I realized that that kind of hurt me. I'll be honest.
@@cmpvariety1764 I have no interest in doing a UA-cam channel. As Dr. Mike has pointed out, as long as you are not giving anything that will ID a patient, it is perfectly legal for someone to tell another person's story. There are entire books dedicated to doctor's telling stories of patient encounters they have had. I believe Michael Crichton actually wrote a book on various patients he had encountered. Anyways, thank you for the idea but I have no desire to go on camera and discuss my various medical experiences.
The most unrealistic part of House is the notion you're going to get that type of medical care when you go to the hospital. Doctors like Mike are rare and it is why his channel is doing so well.
The clinic scenes are truly endless. There's a rapid fire set where he made a wager to get money for every patient he could diagnose without touching them, and had to pay up for everyone he had to touch. So he was instructing patients to do various routine things that was his job just for a small side bet.
Correction: If a patient thinks they can buy you , that means you are sending the wrong signals. And if two patients think they can buy you, that just means you are Dr. House.
Dr Mike vs Dr House is probably the best thing to ever happen on UA-cam. Mike constantly struggeling with House's unemphatical approach is just hilarious. I hope for more reactions to come!
@@cocotug0 Nope. Seen it also. Ob the streets. Doctor apparently assumed patient knows how they work (or told him and he didn't listen and just said yes) and patient didn't bother to look at the instructions. To be fair. He didn't use it like perfume, but held the inhaler about 10-20 centimeters away from his mouth.
@@Avatar2312 Yeah, a mate in high school marching band did that. She thought it was "gross" that I put my inhaler into my mouth. She held hers out, sprayed it like it's a room freshener, and sniffed the powder in the air. Luckily, four other asthmatic band members came over, and we all had to teach her how an inhaler works. Apparently, her parents were ultra religious and thought putting it into her mouth was "too similar to oral sex" so they instructed her NOT to use it properly. A little peer pressure convinced her to listen to the doctor, not her parents. Probably saved her life.
the way his eyes pop open when she says the baby isn't vaccinated... you just know he's been waiting for that moment to unleash his most vicious anti-vaxxer snark.
When it came to that anti-vaxxer mother, House did what he did to give her the wakeup call She even asked what her child had, it was a cold. So she'll get vaccines for her child from now on
Or, sadly, she might go "Well that's what that guy thought, but what does he know? I'm going to do what I believe is right, I'm sure one of my darlings will live past age four one of these days!" Wake-up calls only work if people are willing to accept that they've been asleep. Otherwise... uh, inception, I guess? They just dive another layer deeper into entrenched denial, or something.
The teeth glue story is actually interesting because about 2 years ago my mom was hospitalized with a rare condition called copper deficiency. She almost died from it. After several weeks in the hospital and Copper IV infusions she made a recovery but to this day she is not 100% and probably never will be. My point is that come to find out the zinc in her teeth glue combined with her having malabsorption issues from stomach stapling over 30 years ago they think caused this. It’s something the nurses and doctors told her they would probably never see again in their careers. The nurses said they had never given a copper infusion before. She was so close to death that when she came back she doesn’t recall much. The memories she tells me from that time is a completely different reality. She now has to use zinc free teeth glue and get blood work every 6 months to check her copper levels. Who would of thought we needed copper to survive!
@@cheryl-lynnmehring8606 Exactly that ^ We only need a tiny bit and we tend to absorb way too much most of the time. We'd carry the excess around and that'll compensate for a minor deficiency (only for a while). That's why most of the time you don't think about needing a copper supplement delivered intravenously.
I have to say, I'm sure there are SO many reasons you reacted to the anti-vaxing mom scene the way you did. but personally, I'm 10000000% with house on that one. And sometimes being blunt to the point of being cruel, is probably the best way to get through her thick skull.
Dr. Mike: Please handle anti-vaxxers with empathy. Also Dr. Mike: Who tf cares if the ribs are gonna break? CHEST COMPRESSIONS CHEST COMPRESSIONS CHEST COMPRESSIONS
Can confirm that there are people who use their asthma puffers like that. 🤦♀️ I worked as a pharmacy assistant for a few years and one of the pharmacists told me that a customer said his preventer doesn't work and so the pharmacist asked him to show her how he was using it. He then proceeded to demonstrate by holding the puffer in front of and away from his face and pressed the button, then took a quick breath of air...
"Only in a medical drama!" - Doctor Mike. Actually this is a real accepted sleep disorder. Sexsomnia, as it's colloquially known, is a form of parasomnia that occurs during a point in the sleep cycle where the brain is, essentially, both partially asleep and partially awake. It's exact cause is still unknown but it has been diagnosed and treated many times.
I looked it up after that scene. While it is a real thing, it’s not the same as sleep walking and there’s never been a case where someone’s had Sexsommnia and sleep walking. It’s engaging in sexual activity with someone right beside you or yourself. Not walking downstairs to your ex-boyfriend and having sex. Also, how her ex-boyfriend didn’t know she was actually asleep is beyond me. She has a good case for accusing him of sexual assault.
@@lemaygaming6952 I had an ex who would seem perfectly awake, I could have a conversation with her without ever questioning if she was actually awake, but there were multiple times when she was a sleep and there were times where we had sex and she just didn't remember the morning after. It's not that insane, I doubt the going downstairs part, but it's not that crazy to think he wouldn't realise.
@@lemaygaming6952 Maybe she has both conditions: sleep-walking and sexsomnia. It's extremely improbable, but it can happen. Also, the person's eyes can be open and they can have minimal conversations during a sexsomnic episode. Also also, no, sexual assault requires intent. If he didn't know she was asleep, he would have no way of knowing she did not consciously consent. You can't accidentally rape someone.
@@lemaygaming6952 that isn't necessarily true. There have been cases of sleepwalking leading to sleep assaults as far back as 1989. One case in 2008 had a guy going into another room and getting into bed with someone and eventually raping her. He was acquitted because he was asleep. And you don't necessarily know they aren't awake because, like sleep walkers, they can respond and do other things that wouldn't necessarily make you think they're asleep.

House's snark is, to this day, one of my favorite things. The teeny tiny caskets bit KILLED me, I laughed so hard. Also, strawberry jellies tend to have added sugar, and sugar in yer cooter is BAD. Egads so bad. Holy stuff is it bad. Ow. I crossed my legs every time I watched that bit.
I wonder if a sufficiently bad UTI/yeast infection would act as birth control. I mean, in addition to the fact that your bits would itch so much sex is the last thing you want. It would probably totally screw up the chemistry of the area. Could be enough to make it much harder to get pregnant. Between the careful PH balance, the mucus secretions designed to create an ideal pathway, and probably other things I don't know about - I'd be surprised if a bad yeast infection didn't significantly affect pregnancy chance.
Just wanted to add that all fruits already have sugar in them and if jelly recipes go like marmalade, they have at least 30% added sugars as well. So all of that is really bad lol
2:18 edible gold flakes are actually quite inexpensive. They can be bought online and even on amazon in sheets by the square inch or just in flakes, and it doesn't take very much to add a garnish to a cake. Recently got 2 and a half square feet for making a few things at home and paid about 7 dollars, and I still have a good amount left over. So the next time a patient thanks you with a gold-garnished cake, they likely didn't break the bank to make it. If they got it premade though that's another thing because people LOVE to upcharge for gold leaf
This actually brings up a good time to bring this up! I suffer from SBS (sexual behavior in sleep) also known as sexomnia. Have you had any patients with this? I have tried a psychologist and a few different medications that did not work, our last thing to try is a sleep study and possibly get a CPAP machine even though my wife doesnt want me to wear a mask and have a noisy machine.
Your Wife should go with you and they should show this to her. I have to wear a BiPap Mask evry Night , its fine now. I'm very hearing sensitive i wear Earplugs or ANC headphones no issue at all. But they not this noisy at all m very calm air flow sound. There also Parts to reduce the noice of the airflow, fe. the F20 from ResMed has a special connector for the Hose , its very quiet.

I have OHS and this suxs , because ist hard to find experts who can therapy this complicated form of sleep apnea , i wont have breath stops , I'm simply too heavy any weight puts preasure on my diaphram , this high preasure helps me to breathe to breate in normal again in sleep and out, helps to relax my lung so my body can sleep deep and relaxed.
House having an encyclopedic knowledge of everything for some reason makes a bit more sense when looking at him like a Sherlock character, which he really is written to be (House/Wilson=Holmes/Watson)
I've been rewatching House recently, and I can honestly say I never picked up on it the first time. But once you know, it's so obvious. The fact his apartment is B at number 221.... (although in earlier seasons the building was 221B) - The fact his first ever patient was called Adler. As a Holmes fan, I am so disappointed in my younger self. 🤦♂
9:12 House's family are military personnel who have spent years traveling to different countries around the world. In addition to learning different cultures and languages, House has also developed as a gifted person. In fact, House is a medical version of Sherlock Holmes, who solves clinical and behavioral cases using logical deduction tied to his prior knowledge of many things. If I'm not mistaken, one of his abilities is his photographic memory (something that Marvel's Doctor Strange also has), which helps him a lot when it comes to solving these cases.
I was diagnosed with choriocarcinoma or gestational tropoblastic neoplasia (gtn). I honestly wish I had had Dr Mike as my doctor. I was told I had a pregnancy of unknown location for 6 months went through a lot of nonsense with one doctor who kept insisting I was pregnant. Finally I got really crazy sick and went to a different hospital and I was diagnosed with this cancer. I was diagnosed with stage 3 then quickly moved to stage 4. I had cancerous lesions on both lungs and 4 on my liver. It was rough! I wish I had had a more diligent doctor like Dr Mike!
To be fair, the fact that house knows literally everything is what makes the show fun. That scene with him speaking Mandarin would have been so much less interesting if he didn't speak it.
he is also fast-thinking and fast -learner but could not concentrate at one thing for lon (except medicine, but even in medicine he is all over the place), so it makes sense he has a lot of skills. He is genius too. Also, House specialty is infection disease, and its ofc overdramatize but they are kinda like this)
@@alatielinara yup. He also read a lot while his dad was on duty, so he has extensive knowledge on the most random things. He could probably win Jeopardy lol.
I love your reactions to House episodes, and this clinical response video was fantastic. I get to have a good laugh while a doctor actually critiques and gives good and relevant info to us! Can't wait for more!
In my early years of medschool, I used to watch “House” for inspiration. I remember all these scenes, and I remember feeling like I would have reacted the same way if I was faced with patients like these.
@@CaptainDCap i remember it being Lupus just one time. It's not something I personally encounter too frequently, but imagine other practitioners experience it more commonly.
When I was studying to become a nurse, my preceptor always told me to check how the patient is using their inhaler. One person was using it for allergies related to her cat. When asked to show her technique, she said she couldn't demonstrate because the cat wasn't there. She was spraying the inhaler onto the cat.
@@odinfromcentr2 You have to be prepared for the fact that some people are really THAT DUMB. Like, I don't mean to be rude, but you have to be able to keep the inner "duhh" to yourself and patiently explain things. You'd honestly be surprised! You have to spell things out.
@@Sniffysmyboy That wouldn't be an issue if I were explaining it to small children. They're small children. Learning stuff *is* the job description. Adults... That's where my patience runs a bit dry for that. If you can't figure out that you're supposed to inhale what comes from your inhaler by the time you're 30, there's not a whole hell of a lot to be done to help you from where I sit. I commend you for the massive reserve of patience you must have not to Gibbs-slap that type.
It's amazing how positive but assertive you are even when criticizing someone. I have gone to some amazing doctors who can literally made me all my nervousness/anxiety go away and I felt much better after I left. I am sure you have that "amazing doctor" personality.
Even though it is not the most accurate medical show House is still entertaining. One thing he does very well is understand how people truly are that is why he doesn't trust his patience and treats them like they are stupid.
Except when he gets people dead wrong. Which happens over (Cameron). And over. (His ex girlfriend) And over (the patients who had the building collapse on them) And over (LISA CUDDY) and over and over and over again because he can't admit to himself that he needs to not be such a self-centered jerk.
I literally adore the fact that doctor mike takes time out of his schedule to make videos on youtube and brighten up our day along with a dose of humor to make it better. Congrats of 10 M u deserve it. Lots of love
As somebody who has already seen the scene with the woman who doesn’t know how an inhaler works, I was dying at Mike’s in-depth analyses because I knew they were going to end up irrelevant 😂
House's Head and Wilson's Heart is a great 2 part episode with multiple medical mysteries that takes place during the climactic height of the series. Please keep House somewhat in rotation.
Hey Doctor Mike. I just want to say that I am a massive fan of your channel. I only started watching you recently but I still consider myself a big fan because you’re nearly all I ever watch on UA-cam now. I showed you to my family and they are all so intrigued by your intelligence. Keep up the good work.
House knowing multiple languages and coming straight to conclusion about someone's illness is the main concept of the show, he is basically Sherlock Holmes, hes based on Sherlock Holmes, he is a great detective and know it all Doctor
@Doctor Mike, I've been pregnancy tested when I was a virgin. This seems like a common thing because I've heard it from others as well. I don't go to parties. I went to school, I went home, I went to female friends homes, family visits, and grocery shopping. I've never taken drugs, experienced gaps in my memory, or anything else that could put me in that situation.
It is. The implications if you've forgotten or are lying can be huge, on a human level as well as medical malpractice level. It's easier and cheaper to just do the test.
6:40 Hum not only in a medical drama actually. Sexsomnia is definitely a real thing. All I'm learning from Doctor Mike watching House's clips is that he's not aware that any rare conditions exist.
I so badly wanna see how Dr.Mike reacts to the way the Winchesters handle their medical problems, or the patch up methods they do. I wanna see the anger in his face as they take some pills and down half a bottle liquor with it 😂😂
Thank you Dr. Mike. I've been feeling *extremely* suicidal recently and your videos have helped me take my mind off of everything going on. It means a lot to me. I love you.
Please reach out to your local mental health services and get some support, if you can. Dealing with those kinds of thoughts and feelings is extremely intense to be dealing with. You deserve a happy and fulfilling life. 💜
@@Raiinstorm69 That's what I thought seven years ago. And now I'm living my life one day at a time, actually enjoying most days. Unless you kick babies as a hobby, you totally deserve to have your life not suck.
Here's the thing, there are many reasons to go in for a sleep test, one is definitely for sleep apnea, but there is so much more, detecting quality of sleep, what issues with sleep you have, (exploding head syndrome, restless legs (I think it's called) and more). It is definitely encouraged to go take a test if you think that they may be disturbing your quality of sleep, for any reason.
Doctor Mike, I just want to say congrats on 10 million subscribers! It's really an accomplishment! Us fans are proud of you! I hope you have an amazing day/night and stay safe!
8:25 actually the patient came in with a cold in that scene and asked for birth control pills. I mean it's pretty obvious the old lady isn't getting pregnant any time soon. So House knew who the pill was going to.
I first saw the inhaler episode years ago, but it is still super funny. I laughed so bad when I first saw the scene. There are not many scenes from TV shows that can make you go into fits of laugher like that. (Friends bloopers are the best for that - Pheobe the nurse or Ross bagpipes are awesome)

Hm, I wonder why-
Let's not forget that Dr House was a Vicodin addicted disgruntled hospital employee...
Yes
Which nurses?
There is actually an in-show reason why House knows so many languages. His father was in the military and he and his family moved around to various countries when House was growing up. He’s also a certified genius with an extremely obsessive personality.
He also does not, in fact, know every language. In the plane episode he claims to know very little Korean.
Of course, he could be lying.
@@aquanight5226 she said "you know Mandarin", thats chinese not Korean.
@@anthonyferreira5233 yea.. but the previous comment wasnt saying that with reference to this clip, it was in response to house supposedly knowing every language.
@@terahurtz Ok cool. I must have missed that.
@@GlorifiedGremlin Various characters throughout the show say that he is a genius, even those who don’t like him (which is a lot of people). But besides that, there are references in the show to his incredibly high IQ.
House always assumes the worst of everyone, and Dr. Mike always assumes the best. The contrast between the two is so much fun to watch!
That should would just be a medical sitcom.
@@thegamingkaiser2874 What?
@@superboy98612 that would be the perfect medical sitcom
balanced as all things should be.
House: Dr Mike, i know you're watching my show, I can hear you CARING.
The inhaler thing is actually fairly believable. I have a friend who saw a patient in clinic and the patient was insistent that the inhaler he had to help him deal with allergy-induced asthma wasn’t working. After a LENGTHY conversation it turned out the patient was using his inhaler… by spraying it on the cat. He thought that since the cat was causing his allergy the solution was to spray the cure on the cat
This made me laugh so hard
WHAT
I was confused by his certainty too, it takes about a year of working with patients to grasp that they do, in fact, make these sorts of mistakes and misunderstandings frequently
That is pretty hilarious I’ll admit, I never watched this show, but when I saw the lady with the asthma puff using it wrong, (sorry for not knowing the real name, so sorry) I was done😤 first time I saw that scene, I was literally thinking “ok this lady is so dumb, she needs to go back to school”
This is my opinion so don’t hound me for it😓
Nice
Patient: *sprays inhaler on neck*
Dr. Mike: “There’s images on the bottle of what you’re supposed to do. That would never happen.”
I work in the field of human factors. We test usability of medical devices for pharmaceutical companies seeking FDA clearance for their products. And as someone working in this field, I have to say, that absolutely HAS HAPPENED. I’ve only been in the field for a few months and I’ve already seen that and crazier. People are SO BAD at comprehending (or even looking at!!) instructions. Humans are fascinating.
It is always possible for someone to be stupid enough to screw up anything.
I would love to hear stories like this. Is there a channel for that or something
@@brandondelinsky9238 Unfortunately not that I know of. My line of work is highly confidential so I'm not sure how many details someone would be able to share.
When you make your instructions foolproof, nature invents a better fool.
Agreed. Not only are people capable of incredible levels of stupidity, some simply refuse to even read. I work in a travel agency, and when we advertise group tours many of the questions that pour in have to do with information that's explicitly stated in the ad. So with this woman the most plausible explanation is that she never bothered with instructions, and just went with how she thought the inhaler worked based on the spraying part.
Dr. Mike: "House, PLEASE handle this with some empathy..."
Me, clearly and specifically recalling the "teeny tiny baby coffins" line: 😬😬😬
I'm just wondering why he didn't show the full clip. I mean sure, the teeny tiny baby coffin line isn't the best, but the follow-up is pretty good.
also dr mike was crazy to expect empathy! XD what show did he think he was watching?
XD not the show where in episode one he tells his students that one was chosen because she's hot, one was chosen because his father asked for a favor and the last one because he has a criminal record so he might not mind breaking into people's homes for a positive reason....
She should have replied back with, how many of those coffins were for aborted babies
@@ZombiZohm Houses reply: "Well that's a rather silly question isn't it. You wouldn't want the teeny tiny baby size, you'd want the itty-bitty fetus size."
@@ZombiZohm What does that have to do with anything?
As a character, House was based on Sherlock Holmes. That is why so many episodes are treated as a mystery and not just diagnoses and treatment. And like Holmes, House can be abrasive and really only wants to take a case if the finds it interesting.
Well said. Both characters are also opioid addicts. The addiction to drugs are used by the authors to parallel their addiction to solving mysteries.
Who was the detective that both of them were based on? Dupin, or something like that? The stories he was in describe him as almost having supernatural abilities.
@@noctisocculta4820 Wasn't Sherlock Holmes a cocaine addict?
@@yamitsukikarasu8857 opioid=cocaine
Yup, House/Holmes; Wilson/Watson
"There's images on the bottle, that's never going to happen". Doctor Mike is a doctor for real. My sister is a pharmacist and sort of had to sigh and roll her eyes between laughs during this scene because "The ridiculous of it is, you wouldn't believe how many customers we get that really do stuff like this, and we have to really be patient and talk them through it"
I lost faith in humanity I didn't even know I had...
I have a number of friends who are nurses. They have the best stories. One of the most memorable was a lady who wanted to whiten her teeth for a wedding. She put household bleach in a mouth tray.
@@falconeer99 ... right now, I'm sitting here trying to decipher whether this feeling is watching the bar trying to go into the ground, or just tired of stepping over it anymore. Bleach? I mean, come on... just use vinegar. It can't possibly taste worse.
You know what, on second thought... use the bleach. Please. Lots and lots of bleach.
Lmao I’m in pharmacy school right now and they actually showed that clip in class in my first semester. As much as I hate to say it, it really does happen.
@@shayanmosaffa6372 😲
The clinic hours of House are truly the best parts!
My favorite is the teeny, tiny, badly coffins, coming in fire-engine red, or rubber ducky yellow
And the “we have a neurological problem here”
myfavorite was moron with a broken fingerwhen Cuddy preapares for the worst... and then the moron comes out of the examination room with House, laughing and in the best mood...
I know Dr. Mike wanted House to be empathetic, and it's probably the ethical, right thing to do, but him ripping her to shreds was SO much more satisfying to watch than him being understanding would have been.
I also like the "The bad news is your wife is cheating on you - you are ORANGE!"
@@cobrasys Also to be fair more effective! Sure it's crule but sometimes that's needed to make people understand.
My personal favorite is “you suck at math”
7:13 I laughed so hard when he asked Dr House to handle this with some empathy. I couldn't remember what happened, but I knew House could not do that in any situation
Do not mess with kids when House is near as he likes kids and this mom was just asking for House to go off on her. He flat out told her why vaccines were a good thing cause her baby was sick. The mom asked what did she have which House just said in his 'are you stupid' tone A Cold. This mom was gonna kill her kid just because she didn't believe that the vaccines worked. what an moron
Also his eyes! They shot open so quickly😂
I did a slow...yet evil grin...lol
@@_Name_Not_Found_ and the sound effect XD
actually he did.
when this pregnant photographer has a stroke - towards the end, House refers to the child as a child, not a fetus.
As someone who has watched House and knows how the scene is going to unfold, it is hilarious watching Dr. Mike guess what potential illness a patient can have while House is going galaxy brain on them.
Dr House is the best doctor on the tele-vision
The general answer is... it's not lupus
@@SDogo Except from that one time. :)
We definitely need a part 2. There’s so many more amazing clinic scenes!
Agreed. This was funny as hell.
I want to see dr mikes reaction to the guy who tried circumsized himself
My favorite will always be the inhaler
"If a patient thinks they can buy you, you probably are sending off the wrong signals!"
Yeah, like stripper signals!🤣😂🤣
0:48 When she sprays her neck with the inhaler!🤣😂🤣
A Chinese UA-camr reacted to the Asian girl's scene. Her mother was complaining of a cold in Mandarin while the girl was lying in her translation. Him knowing Mandarin means he could tell she's lying immediately. It's an awesome detail honestly.
Yup. The old lady actually says "I can't breath, and my throat feels like it's on fire."
Sadly, Dr. Mike left out the part when House tells the mother in Mandarin that he congratulates her on becoming a grandma.
Do you have the link?
@@andrestamayo9832 Unfortunately youtube just auto deletes it when I try post a like but if you search for "Chinese Reacts to House MD Mandarin Clip" it should show up (
Chinese with Jessie)
And later, when he heard the daughter say in Mandarin,'he gave you the wrong medicine'. Only for him to pointing she gave her mother the wrong pills. And he clarified that while he's not fluent in Mandarin, he can count to ten, ask to do the bathroom, and then he said to the mom 'your going to be a grandmother soon'. Little detail, but he used the term for grandma on dad, not on mom's side, which, that is an error, but it makes sense in this context. House doesn't know the language fluently, which fits in this context, cause if he was only taught beginners basics for any given language and especially if he was trained in medicine when becoming a doctor it makes sense that he can understand partially what the mom is saying. Even the sentence the daughter said about him giving her the wrong pills sounds like what you would find in a beginner's language book. I really do like this scene. It's funny, and it's actually accurate Mandarin instead of just some shows that don't even bother with accuracy.
the stuff Dr. House says to patients is basically all the stuff that EMS and ER staff want to say to patients but don’t because we wanna keep our jobs lol
There should be a waiver to sign so that you can be honest.
@@theiran hospitals are a business, and no business wants their employees to be deliberate assholes to their customers unless it's part of a very niche gimmick like that restaurant where the staff are dicks on purpose.
All you'd do is scare even more people away from going to the hospital if they think they'll get berated by the people supposedly there to help them.
2 paramedics had no problem voicing theirs. A few years ago i was getting assessed for epilepsy and i went through a stage of having prolonged absent seizures. I was having one of these episodes at work one day and this time i was taken to hospital. My manager called for an ambulance and the lady on the phone told her to lay me down and when the paramedics turned up, my seizures had stopped and i was in a hysterical state because it happened, they took one look at me and said i was faking despite being told the seizures had stopped. My mam was furious.
@@Aimz360 I would have wrote something out to the effect of "you're refusing to take me? Sign here please."
@@Aimz360 That wouldn't happen in Canada. Not sure where you're from but I can guarantee you that paramedics here have to take patients even if they think they're faking.
House's lack of empathy when seeing clinic patients is deliberate. Not only does he make every attempt to distance himself from his patients so that he can avoid getting too involved or attached, he *haaaaaates* clinic duty (if I remember correctly, he has to do a certain amount of clinic hours every week as part of his agreement for Cuddy to basically ignore his shenanigans) and will do whatever he can to get out of having to do it.
He basically tries to get thrown out of clinic duty. But does good job on paitients, minus terribad bedside manner. Hospital kepps him anyway, bacause still needs doctors :D
That is what is missing in the first clip, with the inhaler. He had a wager with Cuddy when, if he did not insult any clinic patients that day, he would not have to do any clinic hours for the next week or so. That clip ends with the woman storming out of the room without ever showing how House actually reacted to her: "do I look stupid?" display of using the inhaler as a perfume. You only saw him thinking: "Okay, I lost the bet, but it's worth it".
@@mechadrake The whole premise of House relies upon the man being so good at his job that he can be a total jackass to everyone and get away scot free. IRL any field has these kinds of people, people so essential that as long as they do their job they can do nearly anything they want without repercussions.
He hopes to get sued so he doesn’t have to do any more of it.
He must do clinic hours as a part of his job and apparently has been ignoring it for a long time, so he’s multiple hundred hours behind.
The scene where House reveals he speaks mandarin is great, because not only did he notice the physical symptoms of the lady, he understood everything she said but was playing along with the daughter wondering why she was translating wrongly. The "super depressed" might've give it away for the audience.
Sometimes I wish there would be like a prequel series or a few episodes at least of young House, because I have the feeling that House's bedside manners became worse after what happened to his leg. He doesn't appreciate people that beat around the bush or try to diagnose themselves for righteous reasons due to how dangerous the outcome can be. The few patients that he treats nicely during clinic duty, like the pr0stitute (I think she was one), shows that he can be nice with people.
And children. He is nearly always kind to children
@@ilenastarbreeze4978 There was a really wholesome scene with House diagnosing Self Gratification Disorder in a young child. He kept the little girl's mom from acting on a false diagnosis of epilepsy, was silly and kind to the girl, gave her a lollipop, and gave her a high five. For as much flak as House gets for being a jerk to adults, he always makes a point to be kind and nice to children.
@@ilenastarbreeze4978 He's the medical version of Gordon Ramsay lol
@@jewelmillian3719 OH MY GOSH YES! Also I now need the idiot sandwich meme to have House's face photoshopped over Gordon's and WIlson or someone else on the team's face to be on the girl's face lol
I've watch all but the last 2 episodes twice. I have this thing that if I'm really liking a show and know it's going to end then I won't watch the ending so that I can pretend it's still going on.

House's language skills come from his backstory as an army brat, travelling around the world. He know a bit of a lot of languages, just enough to get by. As for knowing the girl wanted birth control, that's just from experience.
Also he doesn't speak mandarin he only knows enough to tell "I gave you the wrong pills" from "He gave you the wrong pills". And also for very house reasons "Your daughter is pregnant".
@@DaDunge mmm not quite. In a later season House converses with a woman in his home in Mandarin while cooking together.
@@DaDunge I was thinking he may just know the words for “he” and “i” in mandarin.
I always figured he knew the kid was just looking for birth control pills because he understood what the mom was really telling her kid to say, and thus the kid was lying about the menstrual symptoms.
@@JazzIsAwesomeMG and there's a later episode where he talks with a patient who's a business executive in Mandarin in front of the patient's daughter.
Dr.Mike: "Why does House jump to the most ridiculous diseases first?"
Also Dr.Mike: "Maybe this pregnant person actually has a tumor."
Hahahahahaha Google be like 🤣👌🏼
Honestly, the tumor was probably more likely than sleepsexing.
Well that does happen, it can even look like a pregnancy depending on where the tumor is located. I know because my mom watched an awkward interaction between a person with a tumor and someone who assumed she was pregnant...
Not ridiculous. Some ovarian tumours produce bHCG, which is the same hormone produced by the placenta that is detected by pregnancy tests. If a patient has high levels of bHCG, and you're pretty sure they're not pregnant, ovarian tumour would be the first thing you'd suspect (for example, if it's an elderly lady). Fun fact: some testicular tumours also produce bHCG.
"If a patient thinks they can buy you, you probably are sending off the wrong signals!"
Yeah, like stripper signals!🤣😂🤣
I used the inhaler scene for a presentation at Uni - It shows perfectly why proper patient education is so important :)
As someone with asthma I died watching that
Doctor Mike it's good to know you ask your patients what they think is their problem. I told my last doctor I had a sinus infection, which I've had many, and she told me "isn't it funny how somebody who has never attended medical school seems to be able to diagnose their own illnesses." Uhh yeah, I switched doctors.
Right!?
Like, well doc, I've had one before, and this feels the same, I have a fever, but sure, clearly someone who isn't inside my body getting signals from my nervous system knows better than me."
it's super frustrating when doctors think they know your symptoms better than you do. my husband has legit had a constantly running nose for TEN YEARS. all day. every single day. in every kind of environment. he's tried all the allergy meds and none of them work. yet every time he sees a new ENT hoping to get a real diagnosis, it's "mUsT bE aLlErGiEs!" the last one finally did a CT scan of his whole head and whaddya know, the root of his wisdom tooth is perforating his sinus cavity, causing INFLAMMATION.
I have lots of health issues and I literally had to have my dad come and help (he looks imposing being 6'1 and 350lbs) for them to take anything seriously and they only listened to what he said and ignored me. I'm 23y/o, now, I was 20y/o then
I had someone sick at work and sent them home. My district manager had a talk with me about “diagnosing when I wasn’t a doctor.”
But I also wasn’t a professional plumber when the store flooded through the drains. Obviously it couldn’t have come from the drains even with photographic evidence. 🙃
Thankfully she’s not in my district anymore and I’m glad you went to a different doctor.
I'm glad to say I've had a gp that takes his patients seriously all my life. there was a year when I had like 3 middle ear infections, and the 3rd time I went to the doctor before it hurt badly (for me, a middle ear infection starts with a stiff jaw and a headache, then stinging in the ear that gradually gets worse), there was little more than an occasional sting yet. he looked into my ear and said he didn't see anything, I explained why I was so sure and he looked again. that time, he did spot the infection that I was right about, and prescribed me antibiotics :). to those who've never had a middle ear infection, as it progresses it starts feeling like someone stabbed a glowing hot knife into your ear and is twisting it. also, an untreated middle ear infection has a decent chance of damaging your hearing.
You know, many years ago, I wouldve agreed with Mike that these stories are unrealistic. But after basically breathing askreddit’s doctors corner and talking to professionals on campus, I’ve realized that people are BEYOND stupid sometimes. And I think anyone who’s had a job dealing with the public could give you a list of examples.
I work in the lab and see plenty of people come into the ER for very stupid things, or because they're just very stupid people. Further, I understand that the average person probably doesn't know anything about basic medicine or health science, so the person with below-average intelligence should be treated with some grace. Still frustrating af tho. lol
They’re actually true 🤷🏽♀️
That show was written after real cases of people dying to rare diseases only to be figured out on autopsy. Of course these clinic duty episodes also grab from real medical anecdotes and real people being low IQ.
ngl I think something like this would scare people off from feeling like they need to go to the ER like imagine feeling like you need to seek Emergency Care and the people who take you in think you're an idiot for panicking.
I work retail with plans to go into the medical field.
I have learned very well that the average intelligence means some people fall far below that line. I'm currently working at a place that sells coffee and coffee machines. I have had a customer complain to me that the touch-to-open technology one of our machines has is too complicated. It also took her a week to figure out how to take the water tank off and then place it back on.
But she can't do the crank-to-open because her husband doesn't understand that.
They were some of my higher-intelligence customers of the day.
Actually the episode with the zinc--intoxication helped doctors here in Germany solving a case where the patient intoxicated himself acidentally with a denture adhesiv creme with zinc, which led to a severe lack of copper. I heard it in a podcast whose titel translates to "Adventure diagnosis - the medical thriller-podcast". it's very interesting.
I've heard that most of the clinic visits in house are based on real life doctor stories that the writers got
Is it a German podcast and you translated the name? Or an english podcast.
It is so sad though that there aren't English subtitles for some shows because I seriously would love a reaction from someone like dr. mike to like ... Dr. Klein (A German hospital series about a pediatrician who has dwarfism - she is called Dr. klein and at the beginning of the show she and her family move in to her father and her younger sister because the father started showing signs of dementia.

9:10 "he speaks every language, he knows every body part...." Of course, he's Doctor House. The show was originally conceived as a medical twist on Sherlock Holmes. A fictional brilliant detective who is a walking encyclopedia. It only makes sense that Doctor House would exhibit the same abilities.
Houses response to the antivax mom is the most empathetic response you can humanly give, empathy for the one that deserves empathy, the child.
Yep I loved the response that house gave
It's not effective, though. Berating people feels good but it just causes them to dig in their heels. Empathy is the only way to break through to them.
I am of two minds. On the one hand, I think anti-vaxxers with no kids but who are planning to have them absolutely need to get a verbal smack across the head. Refusing to vax your child might not be pure murder, but it's kind of like putting spikes all around their cradle. On the other hand, an anti vaxxer who already has a child needs to be managed more delicately. This child is actively in danger and anything that could increase the chances that the parent stays calm and listens to you needs to be done.
True 😌
@@BlaineTog Tell about all the crazy antivaxxs you have seen who actually listened to reason because of this, them take off the list all the ones you just made up.
I do love how Mike was thinking of actual reasons the chinese mom could have the symptoms that the daughter was reporting.

But if House speaks mandarin, then he knew from the first moment that the daughter was lying about what her mom was saying.

As for House speaking several languages, not only he is highly intelligent, but he was an "army brat", he lived in several different places, so that could also explain this particular knowledge.
US army base in Beijing? There's no base in Taiwan or Singapore either. And if dad somehow got sent to HK when it was British ... well, the people there didn't speak Mandarin.

A few years ago, I was in the hospital with a pericardial effusion. They couldn't figure out why I would have developed that. Then I had a blood clot. Then a plural effusion. They of course were treating the symptoms but still trying to figure out WHY. Then a Dr came into my room and said "we think you may have Lupus" and I nearly died laughing because...House.
It's never Lupus.

I have asthma.
My main trigger for asthma attacks are smoke. My dad smokes and I’ve told him so many times to stop. Even when a tiny bit of smoke enters my lungs, I start having an asthma attack and become unable to breathe. I also went to a camp recently and was forced to go around the campfire. I asked if I could skip but I got forced to. I had an asthma attack within the first 10 seconds. I wish people would stop (knowingly) giving me asthma attacks.
From interviews and commentaries, I can tell you that the clinic patients in House are actually REAL doctor's experiences with various patients from around the US. House had a few doctors on hand that would write up an injury or condition and give a list of symptoms based on that condition. Those same doctors were then asked to give accounts of the most ridiculous patient encounters they have had or had heard about. All of these patient encounters that House has during his clinic hours are real stories.
Even the one where the woman is using strawberry jelly to... Well you know. You mean that's even true? Oh God that's worse. Lol.
@@cmpvariety1764 I cannot say what is and is not true. All I am attempting to say that it is well documented that the writers of House relied heavily on actual doctors for the medical side of things. And in one of the episode commentaries, it is stated that all of the clinic cases that House dealt with were pulled from stories that doctors encountered or heard from their peers. I have worked as an EMT and an ER tech. In my time, I have seen a LOT of people do some really weird and downright stupid things. I am not and never was a doctor, but I could easily have supplied the writers with ER stories that could easily have been turned into a clinic setting.
@@victorhayes5980 you should do a UA-cam thing like a UA-cam channel and say some of the stories if you don't get in trouble for it you know HIPAA. I love the medical field I've loved the medical field ever since I was a kid. I really wanted to get into the medical field unfortunately a blind person cannot do that. It sucks. I wanted to be a nurse when I was little but yeah it's impossible. At least right now it is anyway. When I realized that that kind of hurt me. I'll be honest.
@@cmpvariety1764 I have no interest in doing a UA-cam channel. As Dr. Mike has pointed out, as long as you are not giving anything that will ID a patient, it is perfectly legal for someone to tell another person's story. There are entire books dedicated to doctor's telling stories of patient encounters they have had. I believe Michael Crichton actually wrote a book on various patients he had encountered. Anyways, thank you for the idea but I have no desire to go on camera and discuss my various medical experiences.
There was a lady who left a hamster that crawled inside her, so I DOUBT someone hasn't at least out Jelly in there for... Some unknown reason.
The most unrealistic part of House is the notion you're going to get that type of medical care when you go to the hospital. Doctors like Mike are rare and it is why his channel is doing so well.
The clinic scenes are truly endless. There's a rapid fire set where he made a wager to get money for every patient he could diagnose without touching them, and had to pay up for everyone he had to touch.
So he was instructing patients to do various routine things that was his job just for a small side bet.
Correction: If a patient thinks they can buy you , that means you are sending the wrong signals. And if two patients think they can buy you, that just means you are Dr. House.
Dr Mike vs Dr House is probably the best thing to ever happen on UA-cam. Mike constantly struggeling with House's unemphatical approach is just hilarious. I hope for more reactions to come!
The first clip has actually happens funnily enough. My dad is a doctor and loves telling a story about a patient who used the inhaler like that.
whaaaaat!? and I thought that it was only comedic exaggeration!
@@cocotug0 Nope. Seen it also. Ob the streets. Doctor apparently assumed patient knows how they work (or told him and he didn't listen and just said yes) and patient didn't bother to look at the instructions.
To be fair. He didn't use it like perfume, but held the inhaler about 10-20 centimeters away from his mouth.
@@Avatar2312 Yeah, a mate in high school marching band did that. She thought it was "gross" that I put my inhaler into my mouth. She held hers out, sprayed it like it's a room freshener, and sniffed the powder in the air. Luckily, four other asthmatic band members came over, and we all had to teach her how an inhaler works. Apparently, her parents were ultra religious and thought putting it into her mouth was "too similar to oral sex" so they instructed her NOT to use it properly. A little peer pressure convinced her to listen to the doctor, not her parents. Probably saved her life.
Dr. Mike should've known never to underestimate the depths of human stupidity.
Funny, the "how to use" is in the name! hahaha
0:49
The way dr mike laughed because the lady didnt use the inhaler properly made me laugh as well. 🤣
Dr. Mike: “Okay, Dr. House. Please handle this with some empathy.”
Me: Do you know who you’re watching?
teeny tiny, baby coffins 💀🙏
The series finished a zillion years ago… the fact that you are still reviewing it goes on to tell how addictive it was (is)…my man!!!
I'd like to see a remake in a post-COVID world or a Chase MD mini series showing what happened to the characters
last season in 2012
I'm rewatching it on my other monitor, while watching this at the same time :)
Laurie's acting (just facial expressions alone) are amazing. Not to mention the accent
the way his eyes pop open when she says the baby isn't vaccinated... you just know he's been waiting for that moment to unleash his most vicious anti-vaxxer snark.
Still liked him better in Blackadder.
@@laurahubbard6906 great in both though
When it came to that anti-vaxxer mother, House did what he did to give her the wakeup call
She even asked what her child had, it was a cold. So she'll get vaccines for her child from now on
Or, sadly, she might go "Well that's what that guy thought, but what does he know? I'm going to do what I believe is right, I'm sure one of my darlings will live past age four one of these days!"
Wake-up calls only work if people are willing to accept that they've been asleep. Otherwise... uh, inception, I guess? They just dive another layer deeper into entrenched denial, or something.
Sadly studies find people instinctually hold on to their beliefs or have their beliefs strengthened when they here arguments against them.
Doctors don't operate on the sociopathic logic of internet commentators. When they do, they don't stay doctors.
Well, we do not have vaccines against the common cold.
The teeth glue story is actually interesting because about 2 years ago my mom was hospitalized with a rare condition called copper deficiency. She almost died from it. After several weeks in the hospital and Copper IV infusions she made a recovery but to this day she is not 100% and probably never will be. My point is that come to find out the zinc in her teeth glue combined with her having malabsorption issues from stomach stapling over 30 years ago they think caused this. It’s something the nurses and doctors told her they would probably never see again in their careers. The nurses said they had never given a copper infusion before. She was so close to death that when she came back she doesn’t recall much. The memories she tells me from that time is a completely different reality. She now has to use zinc free teeth glue and get blood work every 6 months to check her copper levels. Who would of thought we needed copper to survive!
Trace Minerals
@@cheryl-lynnmehring8606 Exactly that ^
We only need a tiny bit and we tend to absorb way too much most of the time. We'd carry the excess around and that'll compensate for a minor deficiency (only for a while). That's why most of the time you don't think about needing a copper supplement delivered intravenously.
I actually just had a friend pass away from a copper deficiency. 😭😭
@@brittanyclone6553 I’m so sorry girl! 😢
Wow, that this a crazy story but I am very happy that your mum didn’t die. ❤️
Dr. Mike has made me more confident in asking doctors when I have problems.
he encouraged me to see a doctor about possibly getting diagnosed for autism
i got adderal though, and i don’t think i have adhd
I have to say, I'm sure there are SO many reasons you reacted to the anti-vaxing mom scene the way you did. but personally, I'm 10000000% with house on that one. And sometimes being blunt to the point of being cruel, is probably the best way to get through her thick skull.
Dr. Mike: Please handle anti-vaxxers with empathy.
Also Dr. Mike: Who tf cares if the ribs are gonna break? CHEST COMPRESSIONS CHEST COMPRESSIONS CHEST COMPRESSIONS
@@MamadNobari Well, the alternative is to not risk breaking ribs, and that's a worse outcome....
Oh that’s right I forgot. You know best, and anyone else that disagrees with you is the dumbest person in the world
@KnightShadowsong whatever gave you the impression that because of how Dr Mike reacted, he's necessarily 'against vaccines'?
PLEASE keep the House M.D. content coming! It's fantastic.
When house said there’s a neurological problem i actually laughed
Can confirm that there are people who use their asthma puffers like that. 🤦♀️ I worked as a pharmacy assistant for a few years and one of the pharmacists told me that a customer said his preventer doesn't work and so the pharmacist asked him to show her how he was using it. He then proceeded to demonstrate by holding the puffer in front of and away from his face and pressed the button, then took a quick breath of air...
"Only in a medical drama!" - Doctor Mike. Actually this is a real accepted sleep disorder. Sexsomnia, as it's colloquially known, is a form of parasomnia that occurs during a point in the sleep cycle where the brain is, essentially, both partially asleep and partially awake. It's exact cause is still unknown but it has been diagnosed and treated many times.
I looked it up after that scene. While it is a real thing, it’s not the same as sleep walking and there’s never been a case where someone’s had Sexsommnia and sleep walking. It’s engaging in sexual activity with someone right beside you or yourself. Not walking downstairs to your ex-boyfriend and having sex. Also, how her ex-boyfriend didn’t know she was actually asleep is beyond me. She has a good case for accusing him of sexual assault.
@@lemaygaming6952 I had an ex who would seem perfectly awake, I could have a conversation with her without ever questioning if she was actually awake, but there were multiple times when she was a sleep and there were times where we had sex and she just didn't remember the morning after. It's not that insane, I doubt the going downstairs part, but it's not that crazy to think he wouldn't realise.
@@lemaygaming6952
Maybe she has both conditions: sleep-walking and sexsomnia. It's extremely improbable, but it can happen. Also, the person's eyes can be open and they can have minimal conversations during a sexsomnic episode.
Also also, no, sexual assault requires intent. If he didn't know she was asleep, he would have no way of knowing she did not consciously consent. You can't accidentally rape someone.
@@lemaygaming6952 that isn't necessarily true. There have been cases of sleepwalking leading to sleep assaults as far back as 1989. One case in 2008 had a guy going into another room and getting into bed with someone and eventually raping her. He was acquitted because he was asleep.
And you don't necessarily know they aren't awake because, like sleep walkers, they can respond and do other things that wouldn't necessarily make you think they're asleep.

@@Mewse1203 he was acquitted because he had a good attorney.
I would bet there is more to the story/evidence.
House's snark is, to this day, one of my favorite things. The teeny tiny caskets bit KILLED me, I laughed so hard. Also, strawberry jellies tend to have added sugar, and sugar in yer cooter is BAD. Egads so bad. Holy stuff is it bad. Ow. I crossed my legs every time I watched that bit.
I wonder if a sufficiently bad UTI/yeast infection would act as birth control. I mean, in addition to the fact that your bits would itch so much sex is the last thing you want. It would probably totally screw up the chemistry of the area. Could be enough to make it much harder to get pregnant. Between the careful PH balance, the mucus secretions designed to create an ideal pathway, and probably other things I don't know about - I'd be surprised if a bad yeast infection didn't significantly affect pregnancy chance.
@@diamondmx3076 right for the wrong reasons, lol?!
Just wanted to add that all fruits already have sugar in them and if jelly recipes go like marmalade, they have at least 30% added sugars as well. So all of that is really bad lol
@@fuzzyapple but you'll have the happiest yeast on the planet 😂🤢🤮
2:18 edible gold flakes are actually quite inexpensive. They can be bought online and even on amazon in sheets by the square inch or just in flakes, and it doesn't take very much to add a garnish to a cake. Recently got 2 and a half square feet for making a few things at home and paid about 7 dollars, and I still have a good amount left over.
So the next time a patient thanks you with a gold-garnished cake, they likely didn't break the bank to make it. If they got it premade though that's another thing because people LOVE to upcharge for gold leaf
Then it isn't real gold or gold of value 😂

This actually brings up a good time to bring this up! I suffer from SBS (sexual behavior in sleep) also known as sexomnia. Have you had any patients with this? I have tried a psychologist and a few different medications that did not work, our last thing to try is a sleep study and possibly get a CPAP machine even though my wife doesnt want me to wear a mask and have a noisy machine.
Machines are super quiet. Can barely hear mine running.
As above, the machines are super-duper quiet. In fact, the sound of my breathing overpowers any sound my machine might be making.
Your Wife should go with you and they should show this to her. I have to wear a BiPap Mask evry Night , its fine now. I'm very hearing sensitive i wear Earplugs or ANC headphones no issue at all. But they not this noisy at all m very calm air flow sound. There also Parts to reduce the noice of the airflow, fe. the F20 from ResMed has a special connector for the Hose , its very quiet. When your wife loves she learns to accept this and not let you suffer any ,longer. I'm just 37 but my Life has gaint a little quality back. I have OHS and this suxs , because ist hard to find experts who can therapy this complicated form of sleep apnea , i wont have breath stops , I'm simply too heavy any weight puts preasure on my diaphram , this high preasure helps me to breathe to breate in normal again in sleep and out, helps to relax my lung so my body can sleep deep and relaxed.
My husband suffered this for awhile. He initiated sex while asleep. I had to wake him up b/c continuing would have been rape. Got annoying.
As usual, we need a part 2 of reacting to “House MD: clinical visits”. There’s a lot of funny ones he missed, like the botched circumcision visit.
Or the guy who was attracted to cows (or not). Or his bet with Cuddy on how many he can diagnose and treat without touching the patient.
Dr House will never be anything less than epic. I just can't get mad at his shenanigans and arrogance.
I would not describe it as arrogance. Indignation comes to mind, and well earned.
House having an encyclopedic knowledge of everything for some reason makes a bit more sense when looking at him like a Sherlock character, which he really is written to be (House/Wilson=Holmes/Watson)
I've been rewatching House recently, and I can honestly say I never picked up on it the first time. But once you know, it's so obvious. The fact his apartment is B at number 221.... (although in earlier seasons the building was 221B) - The fact his first ever patient was called Adler. As a Holmes fan, I am so disappointed in my younger self. 🤦♂
@@Mohegan13 lol wow!! Never too late to learn the ways of dr house!
Props to the nurse on the last Clinic clip 9:35 - Completely believable she couldn't have a poker straight face.
9:12
House's family are military personnel who have spent years traveling to different countries around the world. In addition to learning different cultures and languages, House has also developed as a gifted person.
In fact, House is a medical version of Sherlock Holmes, who solves clinical and behavioral cases using logical deduction tied to his prior knowledge of many things. If I'm not mistaken, one of his abilities is his photographic memory (something that Marvel's Doctor Strange also has), which helps him a lot when it comes to solving these cases.
I was diagnosed with choriocarcinoma or gestational tropoblastic neoplasia (gtn). I honestly wish I had had Dr Mike as my doctor. I was told I had a pregnancy of unknown location for 6 months went through a lot of nonsense with one doctor who kept insisting I was pregnant. Finally I got really crazy sick and went to a different hospital and I was diagnosed with this cancer. I was diagnosed with stage 3 then quickly moved to stage 4. I had cancerous lesions on both lungs and 4 on my liver. It was rough! I wish I had had a more diligent doctor like Dr Mike!
I have to admit, as someone with asthma, I found the first scene absolutely hilarious.
she uses it like perfume

The vaccinated baby scene is one of my fave scenes with how he delivers the line about coffins😂😂
To be fair, the fact that house knows literally everything is what makes the show fun. That scene with him speaking Mandarin would have been so much less interesting if he didn't speak it.
7:20 "how do you even function like this?"
Vicodin.
It’s rare to find a combination of entertainment and knowledge that Dr. Mike provides us with
House traveled a lot with his dad (Marine Corps) as a child. So it’s understandable that he picked up a couple languages.
he is also fast-thinking and fast -learner but could not concentrate at one thing for lon (except medicine, but even in medicine he is all over the place), so it makes sense he has a lot of skills. He is genius too. Also, House specialty is infection disease, and its ofc overdramatize but they are kinda like this)
@@alatielinara yup. He also read a lot while his dad was on duty, so he has extensive knowledge on the most random things. He could probably win Jeopardy lol.
I love your reactions to House episodes, and this clinical response video was fantastic. I get to have a good laugh while a doctor actually critiques and gives good and relevant info to us! Can't wait for more!
In my early years of medschool, I used to watch “House” for inspiration.
I remember all these scenes, and I remember feeling like I would have reacted the same way if I was faced with patients like these.
Now that you're licenced (hopefully)...is it ever Lupus?
@@CaptainDCap i remember it being Lupus just one time. It's not something I personally encounter too frequently, but imagine other practitioners experience it more commonly.

When I was studying to become a nurse, my preceptor always told me to check how the patient is using their inhaler.
One person was using it for allergies related to her cat. When asked to show her technique, she said she couldn't demonstrate because the cat wasn't there. She was spraying the inhaler onto the cat.
...That would be the day I walk out of nursing school. 😐
@@odinfromcentr2 You have to be prepared for the fact that some people are really THAT DUMB. Like, I don't mean to be rude, but you have to be able to keep the inner "duhh" to yourself and patiently explain things. You'd honestly be surprised! You have to spell things out.
@@Sniffysmyboy That wouldn't be an issue if I were explaining it to small children. They're small children. Learning stuff *is* the job description.
Adults... That's where my patience runs a bit dry for that. If you can't figure out that you're supposed to inhale what comes from your inhaler by the time you're 30, there's not a whole hell of a lot to be done to help you from where I sit.
I commend you for the massive reserve of patience you must have not to Gibbs-slap that type.

Even though it is not the most accurate medical show House is still entertaining. One thing he does very well is understand how people truly are that is why he doesn't trust his patience and treats them like they are stupid.
ignore his shenanigans) and will do whatever he can to get out of having to do it.
Except when he gets people dead wrong. Which happens over (Cameron). And over. (His ex girlfriend) And over (the patients who had the building collapse on them) And over (LISA CUDDY) and over and over and over again because he can't admit to himself that he needs to not be such a self-centered jerk.

As somebody who has already seen the scene with the woman who doesn’t know how an inhaler works, I was dying at Mike’s in-depth analyses because I knew they were going to end up irrelevant 😂

House's Head and Wilson's Heart is a great 2 part episode with multiple medical mysteries that takes place during the climactic height of the series. Please keep House somewhat in rotation.
Hey mike, me and my mom just started watching house last week, and i first learned of it from you. You’ve also inspired me to become a doctor👨⚕️.
Hey I wish you luck in becoming a doctor!
Just don't become a doctor like House XD
I started watching house with my mom over 14 years ago…I miss her so much..she passed in 2013 and I’m 21 now. Hope you and your mother enjoy it
I think the fact that a real doctor freaks out with House's insanity means the character is spot on🤣
Hey Doctor Mike. I just want to say that I am a massive fan of your channel. I only started watching you recently but I still consider myself a big fan because you’re nearly all I ever watch on UA-cam now. I showed you to my family and they are all so intrigued by your intelligence. Keep up the good work.
Every episode of House is just filled with golden material that Mike could react to. I fear he’d have a stroke watching it all though!
House knowing multiple languages and coming straight to conclusion about someone's illness is the main concept of the show, he is basically Sherlock Holmes, hes based on Sherlock Holmes, he is a great detective and know it all Doctor
@Doctor Mike, I've been pregnancy tested when I was a virgin. This seems like a common thing because I've heard it from others as well. I don't go to parties. I went to school, I went home, I went to female friends homes, family visits, and grocery shopping. I've never taken drugs, experienced gaps in my memory, or anything else that could put me in that situation.
It is. The implications if you've forgotten or are lying can be huge, on a human level as well as medical malpractice level. It's easier and cheaper to just do the test.
@@potkettle thank you, I didn't think about that
Dr Mike's laughter never gets old 😂
6:40 Hum not only in a medical drama actually. Sexsomnia is definitely a real thing. All I'm learning from Doctor Mike watching House's clips is that he's not aware that any rare conditions exist.
I so badly wanna see how Dr.Mike reacts to the way the Winchesters handle their medical problems, or the patch up methods they do. I wanna see the anger in his face as they take some pills and down half a bottle liquor with it 😂😂
Doctor Mike, Thank you for making these videos. They are entertaining and educational at the same time. Keep up the good work.

Mike's cheeky smile everytime his prediction comes true 😂
Here's the thing, there are many reasons to go in for a sleep test, one is definitely for sleep apnea, but there is so much more, detecting quality of sleep, what issues with sleep you have, (exploding head syndrome, restless legs (I think it's called) and more). It is definitely encouraged to go take a test if you think that they may be disturbing your quality of sleep, for any reason.
Doctor Mike, I just want to say congrats on 10 million subscribers! It's really an accomplishment! Us fans are proud of you! I hope you have an amazing day/night and stay safe!
Doctor Mike, you should do a series with House MD, and try to solve the case, beside just a reacting vid to an episodes. That would be outstanding.

@@cheryl-lynnmehring8606 Naah, he just react ocasionally. I would love see him going into episode with that in mind to chase with them :)
The inhaler scene had me laughing until I cried. OMG so hilarious.
8:25 actually the patient came in with a cold in that scene and asked for birth control pills. I mean it's pretty obvious the old lady isn't getting pregnant any time soon. So House knew who the pill was going to.
what I really like about House M.D. is the actors acting as the patients. Generally they do a great job portraying the symptoms.
I love when Dr Mike covers Dr house, it's always funny to watch.
I first saw the inhaler episode years ago, but it is still super funny. I laughed so bad when I first saw the scene. There are not many scenes from TV shows that can make you go into fits of laugher like that. (Friends bloopers are the best for that - Pheobe the nurse or Ross bagpipes are awesome)
