      @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!

    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.

    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.

    • @OffeJ83
      @OffeJ83 2 роки тому +1

      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).

      @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.

    • @rafaelrp07
      @rafaelrp07 4 роки тому +11

      @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.

    • @Krawna

      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

    I really wanna be the first plastic surgeon featured on wired. Let’s go! The reconstructive stuff is so interesting. You feature so many other doctors. There are so many people in your world that have questions for a guy like me 🙏🏻

      When he’s an actor and you see him being a doctor answering questions:

      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

    They had to get Ken in here for this as a comedian. The reality is that the answer to all of these is that "medicine is very complex and it would be irresponsible to recommend specific action without a consultation so you should talk to your physician". While that was Ken's advice for nearly every question, because he is also a comedian he was able to hit it out of the park and keep it interesting.
