They do call them medical practices, as its an ever evolving field, they constantly have to keep up on new developments. Silly when doctors pretend otherwise.
@Morten frost Hansen but medicines and diseases and treatments are evolving so fast and so are questions that it’s not possible for any doctor to answer certain questions and give some treatment. But if a doctor pretends like they know everything, that would be cause for concern, as they could give you incorrect answers or treatment and bam, a malpractice suit is born.

It’s actually refreshing to see people who have MD but do other types of jobs. It shows the flexibility and prestige associated with that degree Not every MD will solely practice medicine in a clinic. Doctor Mike is another great example
Because a real doctor never see illness as a joke, even if he is comedian. But sure, he still feel funny for more than 3 questions at a tweet and people use punctuation mark too much haha
It’s incredible to me how he hasn’t practiced medicine since 1995 and still remembers all of these things. I’m impressed!! His mind and personality is beautiful.
He probably should've answered that for about half these questions though so not that great... He got a lot wrong unfortunately. He's not a practicing doctor of course.
Well I'd also be concerned with the fact that I can hear the doctor ask the question to begin with, considering I should be asleep during the surgery...
@Platzpropeller You're right that they do perform "Awake Brain Surgery" sometimes, but the best results come by first mapping the brain and then keeping the patient asleep. You can find studies that show patients that were asleep, as opposed to awake, received better post-surgery results with cognition, speech, etc. There's also surveys that show the same as well. It's pretty cool either way!
I really like Ken actually called his wife for the question and answer it honestly with "I don't know". That's moral principle working in Ken right there!
I did have an appointment with a doctor who was like this, don’t know if I just caught him on a bad or he was just like that. Really grateful to him as it was him that got me to stop smoking.
@@qi6303 because he's a doctor (which a lot of asian parents want their children to be doctors) and plus he's famous, so it's a good brag among other asian parents :D
@@ausrakoreansunrise5734 well that depends. When you're talking about Asians, do you mean stereotypical Chinese looking Asians or Indian looking Asians? Because Indian parents and other South Asian parents want their kids to be engineers. 😂
The fact that he calls his wife for her advice proves how good a doctor is. GPs are GENERAL practitioners, they know a little about a lot, but they don’t know everything. If you have a doctor that is unwilling to consult when they’re uncertain about something, that doctor is putting their ego before your health. If you’re not fully comfortable with your doctor’s prognosis or treatment, do not fear getting a second opinion.
And here I thought not trusting my doctor for trying to sell me factual inaccuracies ABOUT MYSELF on the FIRST CONSULTATION (not even the first examination) was just me being paranoid and egotistical. I love your comment so much!
@Živilė Dulevičiūtė Gallows humor and whatnot is very common among people in the medical profession in my experience. When I sat in for surgery observations (not for medical school, mind), the surgeon, when he had time, would casually talk the nurses and technologists up and tell jokes, and then get serious when he had to focus. Jeong would fit right in to most places I've been to.
@Živilė Dulevičiūtė I think this has to do with being emotionally healthy. I'm not a doctor, neither american, but I've done therapy because I was struggling to do my job and studies. In fact, what I discovered is that I had emotional problems and since I began to deal with those things, my routine of studying got better and better. it's like I was doing the same effort but I can absorb much more information, learn thing faster than bf. So yeah, I think when you're positive with the world around you, you're more productive.
You're missing the point. Sometimes you _need_ this type of humor to get through medical school. It's like actors who make silly faces and say goofy things right before the director yells ACTION, and then they do some spectacular serious acting. You gotta get one side out of your system to thoroughly bring out the other side "The brighter the picture, the darker the negative" - Rupert Thorne
Garrett Valdal I’d say many doctors I worked with in school had a witty, dry, sense of humor. We use it to deal with the immense pressure and stress of our situation; being responsible for the well-being and lives of others.
This man should be the model for future AI doctors. 100% not kidding. This is like a master class in respectful disarming bedside manner. His mockery is presented with intense sarcasm which adds up to a real sense of compassion and honesty on balance. If I were in medicine I would actively strive to be this way. I especially love the part where he called someone because he wasn't sure and declared when he was speculating off the top of his head. And the cursing while scolding cursing. Just solid gold in all seriousness despite the pretense at humor. This guy is like a real version of robin's version of patch adams.

@@s.c.p-0493 It's a joke, but seriously asian parents are usually very very strict and push us way too hard to be something that makes a lot of money, like a doctor. As long as we make money.

Your other cousin who gets average grades is a disappointment, don't be like her.
Hi Ken! For those of you wondering what "Kombu cha" is: The effects of "Kombu cha" (Kelp Tea) is increase of iodine and salt intake. There is "Ume Kombu cha" which is enhanced with a little acidic plum flavor that adds alkaline into the diet, too. If you have hypothyroidism, this is one way to get your iodine up, but, if worried about salt, there's powdered and capsuled kelp root (rich in iodine) sold in the market these days, and very cheap compared to iodine supplement, and very healthy for your bowel movement. If you have hyperthyroidism, this is the stuff to avoid. However, it will manipulate your TSH level very big on how often you take it. Yup, that's me.
Oh yeah, kombu cha is a Japanese drink that does mean kelp tea, but the Kombucha that everyone is drinks and is the trendy super drink in the market is actually a different drink with Chinese origins. It’s some weird yeasty fermented drink that tastes like alcohol and vinegar. The Japanese actually call it Koucha kinoko (red tea mushroom).
A licensed doctor, successful actor/comedian, community college spanish teacher and a huge basketball nerd. Ken is putting all the other dad's out there to shame. P.S Louis was real mouthy this episode
Rewatching this now that I've watched community because I had spare time during the pandemic, this is not only still gold, but even better than the last time!
He made the right decision tho,😂😂😂 he had no idea what kombucha is, never even heard of it, he shouldn't presume like he know what it is. A doctor gotta do their research before giving diagnose.
I’ll be honest, I’m peeing a lot and was getting worried. Now that he said it could be caffeine, it’s a huge relief. Not even worried about the blood anymore.
OAB's always been a big problem for me, even with most supplements recommended for it. Strangely, once I started taking a valerian root with lemon balm supp for ADHD, my incontinence took a NOSEDIVE. It's bizarre because literally nowhere recommends that for bladder. You just never friggen know…
Everyone’s talking about about all of his success as an actor and a doctor, but their skipping out his most important achievement He’s a Spanish Genius
See. Seems like a great idea. But be careful, he may try to take over the entire channel and replace the dean I mean the owner of wired with a lookalike
...the question was asking how to reduce stress, one way would be to stop being so angry and cursing all the time. he said 'stop cussing, its not doing you any favors' because it's increasing his stress >.>
I just want to point out that there is an anti-vaccination movement that is causing major outbreaks of measles which we'd all but eradicated in the past few decades thanks to vaccinations. People also ask for antibiotics for colds and the flu which are both viruses and therefore immune to antibiotics.

Watch pineapple express with the directors commentary on.
One of the producers or whomever went to the drs and he was the dr. He was also really funny and so they asked him if he wanted to be in pineapple express. He said yes.

Well u know what they taught in Ken Jeong's medical school?
“Laughter is the best medicine”
Thus he continued his journey to become a comedian and an actor who can treat way more people with his comedy.
As an American who can't afford health insurance or treatment, having watched this I believe I have fulfilled the annual checkup advice doctors give.
Mood. My health insurance that I pay for is so expensive I can't even go for a checkup, so I'm paying for something useless it seems

Well he is asian
ImmaYeetTheBread wow, just wow.
@@s.c.p-0493 It's a joke, but seriously asian parents are usually very very strict and push us way too hard to be something that makes a lot of money, like a doctor. As long as we make money. I got luckier with my parents but my grandmother is a bit pushy. She's always like your cousin that's already working hard and getting good grades are very good, be like that. Your other cousin who gets average grades is a disappointment, don't be like her.
Yeah, I had no idea either. Totally thought this was a spoof! But a few minutes in, wait a minute!!
Hi Ken!
For those of you wondering what "Kombu cha" is: The effects of "Kombu cha" (Kelp Tea) is increase of iodine and salt intake. There is "Ume Kombu cha" which is enhanced with a little acidic plum flavor that adds alkaline into the diet, too. If you have hypothyroidism, this is one way to get your iodine up, but, if worried about salt, there's powdered and capsuled kelp root (rich in iodine) sold in the market these days, and very cheap compared to iodine supplement, and very healthy for your bowel movement. If you have hyperthyroidism, this is the stuff to avoid. However, it will manipulate your TSH level very big on how often you take it. Yup, that's me.
Oh yeah, kombu cha is a Japanese drink that does mean kelp tea, but the Kombucha that everyone is drinks and is the trendy super drink in the market is actually a different drink with Chinese origins. It’s some weird yeasty fermented drink that tastes like alcohol and vinegar. The Japanese actually call it Koucha kinoko (red tea mushroom).
Nobody was wondering
Or you can just be normal and take a synthetic thyroid hormone tablet prescribed by a doctor.

Study more, you will regret it later, it's only a small fraction of your life in the whole scheme of things.
He made the right decision tho,😂😂😂 he had no idea what kombucha is, never even heard of it, he shouldn't presume like he know what it is.

I’ll be honest, I’m peeing a lot and was getting worried. Now that he said it could be caffeine, it’s a huge relief. Not even worried about the blood anymore.
OAB's always been a big problem for me, even with most supplements recommended for it. Strangely, once I started taking a valerian root with lemon balm supp for ADHD, my incontinence took a NOSEDIVE. It's bizarre because literally nowhere recommends that for bladder. You just never friggen know…

The fact that it's 2019 and people still don't understand how the flu shot works is upsetting.
I just want to point out that there is an anti-vaccination movement that is causing major outbreaks of measles which we'd all but eradicated in the past few decades thanks to vaccinations. People also ask for antibiotics for colds and the flu which are both viruses and therefore immune to antibiotics.
Well, people are born everyday, so there will always be people who don't understand flu shots
Anti-Vax people is more upsetting.
