@@warlegends3928 yea, I know, just would've been a hilarious edit :)
I fell asleep to your video with a painful ear inflammation, and woke up to your video still playing with no pain - I feel healed, thanks Mike.
Copay waived :)
@@DoctorMike😂
should have sued dr mike 🤣🤣🤣
Wowowow you better keep that to yourself unless you want an unexpected medical bill coming your way 😅
He literally worked his magic💀
As someone who’s autistic, there’s something really fantastic about how Freddy Highmore portrays Shawn’s specific struggles with autism.
exactly! He definitely did his research and he's an amazing actor
its amazing how I just was seeing a bunch of ppl on twitter complaining he did a horrible job portraying autism and its like... guys, autism is a spectrum that presents in many different ways. All the things they were saying 'is not autism' is exactly how my brother presents and he thought it was fricken cool to see on the screen.
@@LifeAsItIs478752 LITERALLY
Some people say he did a bad job but broo he's so relatable even though he's just playing a role
@@StitchOfficialI got diagnosed at 9 with autism and adhd I related to Shawn so much I loved Shawn, so so so much got obsessed with the show and needed to make sure I could watch all of the episodes did have a mental breakdown when I couldn’t I made it apart of my task to finish every single episode and I did lol in 1 week
Austistic people (like myself) don’t need to have any special talent or skills to be valuable. We’re still people. We don’t need therapy to act how society wants us to act, we need therapy to learn how to communicate our needs and live in a world not built for us.
💯 we should be entitled to be just as mediocre as anyone else can be. Other humans don't "earn" the right to exist because of some externally judged value or talent, they just have it. The same goes for Autistic people and every other neurodivergent and disabled person
Agreed!! By the way, I very much appreciate seeing someone else say they're autistic in the comments, since most people seem to be saying they have a child/relative with autism. There's nothing wrong at all with having an autistic relative, I just feel more seen when speaking to a fellow autistic :)
Yeah. Autistic people dont need special care at all, theyre just normal people. Stop wasting money on them
This is a very valid point but even so, from observing the 4 of my family members that have autism, I have noticed that they all have a special interest of sorts, like my brother is really good at memorising video games, my sister is really good at specific art, my dad is good at keeping animals and fish, and my other sister is really good at creative writing
i've got aspergers and it used to happen all the time where parents of other kids at school would complain to everyone that i need therapy or that i need to be medicated or whatever. stuff like autism and aspergers are just really poorly understood by the general public
I just love how one second he’s critical and logical and the next second his screaming his head off in the name of chest compressions ❤
That's doctor Mike for you!! He's honestly a great content creator in general
Chest compressions!
Chest compressions!
Chest compressions!
Lol I noticed the same thing. 😂
lmao hes taught me to get super annoyed at incorrectly done CPR in media and games
@@coolworms7297 bro same 🤣
@@coolworms7297 As an electrician who has had to take a first aid course every year since I was an apprentice (17yo) I forget that a lot of adults don't know how to do CPR. We have more than chest compressions, like what to do with bleeding etc. but... And a common mistake is when giving mouth to mouth, don't think that you need to blow up a balloon, they just need a little air. If you blow too much, you can fill their gut causing stomach acid to flow into their lungs. Honestly, if your job does not provide it, at least watch some videos on youtube about first aid, someone might need it.
I've been "trained" to make eye contact when having conversations through pure peer pressure. YEARS of learning to mask and masking well and all it has giving me is increased anxiety, non-existent self-esteem, and being tired all the time from masking.
Do you believe you would have been better not increasing chances of positive social interactions and bonds forming?
Yes. Masking is tiring, and makes people anxious and uncomfortable. My mom finally got her diagnosis after 60 years. Now she learns unmasking. She is so much happier. Calmer. And to be honest, I'm not missing her weird, unblinking eye contact, or her stiff hugs. She was extremely uncomfortable and that made us, her children uncomfortable too.
@@jvssocialmedia2459do you think eye contact is the make or break in making friends?
Honestly it's ok to drop the mask. I had a breakdown BC of masking undiagnosed for over 30 years, just be You! 🕊️
Yeah, masking sucks. I now have a job working from home so I no longer have to. I have friends who don't care that I don't mask. Most of them on the spectrum too or have other disabilities, but even my normie friends don't care that I don't mask.
I love how calmly Shaun introduced himself in the first episode. A kid is really hurt and he’s just like “hi I’m Shaun Murphy nice to meet you”
And the way he dismisses people. “Stay away from other people and come back if you can’t breath Kay byeee”
My grandfather was a doctor and had autism. When he was working at a hospital he would call his wife (my grandmother) and ask her to go to the basement, pull out a specific book, go to a specific page number and read that page. He’s gone now but this show reminds me of him so much.
I also have autism but I’m not as gifted as he was
Just remember, not having his “gift” doesn’t make you any less valuable. I’m sure you make him proud with everything you have achieved ❤
@@user-gp3qb7kd8q thank you, this made my day ❤️
@@user-gp3qb7kd8qtrying to make a person who is a tard feel better about themselves is treating them like they are a tard. Treat them like you would any other person
@@photlam9769 What in the world are you even going on about? Are you insinuating that I don't treat an individual with respect, because that is absolutely absurd and you are out of line.
@@user-gp3qb7kd8q I'm saying having to take the time to reassure them about this is something you wouldn't do for other people. You are treating him differently when I'm sure all he wants is to fit in WITHOUT having to deal with people like you trying to tell him everything is ok when he knows he is
My brother is autistic, but im learning a whole new side of him now my mother is very sick (uncuriable lungcancer). It's sad and heartbreaking, the situation with my mom, but the way he is handling this situation is a whole new level. He is kind, 'positive', very calm and he is teaching us to live day by day. Im learning a lot from him and im very thankful that he is my brother!
That’s how I feel about my brother! He’s autistic as well and just goes through life with a sort of innocence and joy I could never understand. He’s 11 years younger than me so he’s more like my son than anything. I’m going into special education and he’s offered to help me get a better insight into what it’s like living with autism. I even thought about writing a book about his experience. He’s the reason why I want to devote my life helping neurodivergent children. Without early intervention, my brother probably wouldn’t be the happy person he is today
So sorry for your mother
yes I do that as well, my mom has several mental illnesses and is in a psychiatric hospital for a few months. I see no point of being sad (or at least showing that I’m sad)
Your grammar is uncurable
@@ELXXXVIIIMMV Im not from Amerika, so excuse me...... Bit rude
That edit at 26:45 when Mike is about to say lifting weights "never hurt anybody" made me laugh out loud. Shouts out to the editors for getting his back
As someone that live with autisum (diagnoised at age 42) and two boys with ASD i love the portrayal of Shaun Murphy, it helpped my wife understand a little bit of how my thought process work
Really enjoy your work
Okay LMAO e
@@pap-fr??
As a person with autism trying to get into the medical field, the good doctor has a special place in my heart ❤
What is it you feel they did well in regard to his portrayal What they didn't do well? What you would have liked/loved to see them show/do but didn't? What would you like to see more?
Sorry for the barrage of questions... I'm an inspiring writer (neurodivergent myself, although I'm not on the spectrum), so I try to learn as much as possible from real people when it comes to proper rep on tv. Trying to avoid common pitfalls those films and shows normally fall into. :P
Same here ❤❤❤
I'm wishing you the best of luck!🤞🙏
@@PeanutStrawberry well personally I related to a lot of things that Shaun had went through the farther issues even though mine was a little different than his, his mannerisms were very intriguing to see as I related to them myself , obviously the bad thing about his portrayal is the fact that he of course had to have savant syndrome which is very rare and unrealistic for most autistic people although I understand that it is a possibility it’s just highly unlikely for someone to meet an autistic savant. And personally I would have liked to see more of what his educational experiences were like. I cannot say this with confidence though as I have not seen the entire show. (Because for me the educational experience for me was some of the worst in my life)and it would have been interesting to see how he was treated in med school. Hopefully I answered all of your questions I cannot see the rest of the questions because as I’m typing this the rest of your question was cut off. Ty for commenting :) 😁👍
i have autism aswell :D
"could be a surgeon. Don't know yet."
im dying
HE IS A SURGEON
DR. HAN
He could be a sturgeon

As an autistic person i love the way freddy highmore plays shawn. Of all the portrayals of autism ive seen shawn is definately the most accurate (in my opinion).

doctor:"his foot is dying"
Paitent who is EXTREMLY high: "oOoh noOo"

My 3 yr old grandson is autistic. He makes direct eye contact and he can pick up on social cues just by looking at your face. He will stare you down lol. He has delayed speech and issues with food textures. He takes speech therapy. He's been in ST since September and he has became very verbal! He's a very independent little guy ♥️
My daughter was the exact same way! She's not autistic but has the same quirks.
Didn't speak until ST, like she didn't want to or try. And definitely the food textures too! Gets veeery overwhelmed by over stimulation. They march to the beat of their own drums ☺️
That's because autism is a whole spectrum and not everybody behaves the same way. The signs Dr. Mike stated are general/common things people look out for with regards to autism.
@@Krystal-O he use to cover his ears when he hears loud noises or being around loudness in general. He doesn't do that anymore. You're right, every child does have their own quirks! Got to love them ☺️
@@rubayaafzal2658 this is true. My grandson's 5 yr old cousin is autistic too and he's nonverbal. Loudness doesn't bother him. Food textures don't either.
And I’m 15,
And I have no sense of social cues, or social norms. My eye contact is either nonexistent or a death stare. I have daily meltdowns over sensory issues or communication struggles. I can’t stand a lot of stimuli and loud noises make my head feel like it’s exploding.
My speech is very monotone and I struggle with basic communication. I have barley any friends and all my communication is really just info dumping my interests. And I’m not autistic
Autism is a spectrum and it effects everyone differently, it’s never a one size fits all, and like someone else said, the things Dr. Mike said are common traits associated with it. We all have our quirks or struggles, and I guess this shows how extreme it can be sometimes.
Training kids with autism to act neurotypical is controversial. On the one hand, it could prevent bullying and help make sure they aren’t discriminated against. On the other hand, it is ok to be autistic. They shouldn’t have to change in order for society to accept them. Also, the behavioral therapy has recently become more humane, but I have a friend who was traumatized by the “treatment”
Yes! The first thing that I said was "Or we can just teach people to be more accepting? I mean I know it's not easy, but it's something that's definitely worth trying.
I'm an adult female with ASD, diagnosed later in life, but my parents always knew I was a bit different. They send me to some form of social skill training at age 9. I definitely felt singled out and even more odd to have to do that when others didn't but I can say now that it did probably help me. I learned to make eye contact and that helps me when I have to apply for a job for example. So depending on the severity of the patient, I think early intervention can be useful and not be traumatic (uncomfortable yeah) and still allow kids to be themselves. I had this training long before I even knew I was autistic.
yeah, it's basically just encouraging masking which is DEEPLY exhausting and just brings us closer to meltdowns or shutdowns quicker.
I wasn’t diagnosed until my 30s. Messed up thing is that my daughter’s psychiatrist had also been my high school teacher. He said that they knew I was autistic back then. It would have been nice to know why I had been bullied most of my life. That doesn’t mean that I’m not still bullied, but at least I have a better understanding about why.
Helping autistic people to “act” neurotypical is to also help people with autism have a better quality of life not because of society but to be able to function not for society but for them selves
Mike: “Could be a surgeon. I don’t know yet.”
Shaun: “I AM A SURGEON!”
It’s so interesting because in his eyes and tone of voice, I can see the impact of all the trauma Dr. Mike faced as a medical professional during the pandemic.
My heart really goes out to you all.
I'm autistic. Got diagnosed at 13-14. I always acted irrationally and had large outbursts and struggled to look people in the eyes. I couldn't understand people's emotions and got into a lot of trouble for not learning quick enough or making shitty social decisions.
I fell into a depression trying to make myself "normal". I taught myself through movies and books and videos. Now I struggle with loads of mental health disorders that I'll have to live with for the rest of my life because I never let myself be me because of bullying and social standards.
Autism doesn't need to be fixed. Be yourself, it won't matter at the end of the day.
you dont have to have mental issues the rest of your life just because you had a sucky childhood. try meditation. or therapy. or medication. or get a dog. whatever works for you. for me, i moved to a new town, stopped selfmedicating, focused on proper diet and exercise, meditation, making some new friends, and now i dont feel depressed anymore all the time.
some days still suck but i just try to survive those and know there will be better days in the future.
Truth, this is a reality for tons of autistic people, whether diagnosed as teens (like yourself) or later in life. It messes you up to realize as you’re older that all the things that made you “wrong” and “too different” your whole life was just a neurodivergence tons of others have.
ya well, everything from adhd to slight social awkwardness is considered autism now. as a guy with adhd diagnosed in the early 80s before it was fashionable, what level of minor inconvenience were you diagnosed at?
@TheSuperappelflap thats not how it always works, you cant cure chronic illnesses and medication and therapy doesn't work for everyone. if it were that simple nobody would be ill like that
That really breaks my heart. This world is so dark. People don’t understand autism at all and seem to forget that having it doesn’t change the way they treat you. I’ve had a similar experience growing up and now how issues as an adult. I just wanna say there are people who get it, people who care, and resources to help. Don’t let the past dim the light that is before you. It’s not easy to find joy after heartbreaking time likes that, but you can do it. 🖤 thank you for your post
I taught a kid once who was on the autism spectrum. This kid could remember random numbers like nobody’s business 😂😂. He was a brilliant child.
i remember at one point my dad set like a 32 character long randomly generated alphanumeric wifi password. every time me or my brothers had people over they would ask me for the wifi password cause i was the computer guy of the bunch. after a few weeks i had the whole thing memorized. its not necessarily required to be autistic though. back when i was little and people still had regular phones in their houses, every kid knew the phone numbers of all their friends houses and their own phone number so you could call home to ask to stay over somewhere and play. i still remember the number for my parents house and last time i used that mustve been around 2005. i also memorized my own mobile number and both my parents numbers so i can call them in an emergency if i lose my phone or cant use it for some other reason and have to ask for someone elses phone.
you can also put an emergency contact card in your wallet if you cant remember numbers well.
My mom worked on the COVID floor. People were quite grateful. I remember the neighbors would mow our lawn or do other nice things for us.
My son is autistic and I bought tons of books and learned what to do. No classes were available at the time. I also got him a kitten when he was young to teach him to be gentle and today at 23 he is a successful adult with an amazing job. There is so much to do that can help if you put in the time and work. His early life was like whack a mole when knowing what he was struggling with
I’ve learnt that nurses have been taught from extensive first hand experience, whereas many residents and fresher doctors have learned academically meaning sometimes they don’t understand the signs and symptoms as well as nurses, because they are talking from the checklist of symptoms they’ve learnt rather than people they have treated. Nurses are so underrated.
Obviously
Yes... but the same can be said about fresh nurses except they don't know as much or are as smart as the fresh doctors. It's kinda unfair to compare like that. Compare an experienced nurse to an experienced doctor. The doctor wins every time.
@@LilJbm1that’s the point of first hand experience… they said that’s why nurses are underrated, BECAUSE they have first hand experience. clearly they were not talking about baby nurses
I've found in general that is a big difference in MD and DO as well. Md's are more box tickers. Do's are more conversational.
@@LilJbm1 Not really. It really just depends on what you are talking about. As an ER Nurse, I can tell you that a fresher Nurse will almost always beat a fresher doctor in regards to patient interaction. The reason why I say this is because our education and training revolves around patient interaction and not like box ticking like what doctors typically study for. Our education and training is critical in order for doctors to recognize and accurately diagnose a patient and write prescriptions because we know best from the moment we get out of school on how to get information out of patients. We also spend far more time with patients during our clinical rotations compared to medical students and we know better in how different symptoms manifest within different kinds of people. Doctors are trained to recognize what symptoms correspond to what conditions, but we are trained to recognize those symptoms in how they appear in patients and provide the doctors and NPs with that information. Doctors do not boss Nurses around, contrary to popular belief, in fact I actually boss the Residents and some of the more experienced doctors in the ER because I am the one that has the most information about my patients at any given time.
Here is an example of a Nurse and Doctor interaction.
Nurse: "Dr. Smith, Patient A came in yesterday complaining about persistent headaches. This morning the man came back in having experienced a seizure, as well as is currently exhibiting slurred speech when I attempted to speak with him and balance issues when walking to use the restroom. He could very well have some sort of Glioma, think we should schedule a CT scan."
Doctor: "Symptoms seem to be consistent. I'll schedule him for a CT scan tomorrow morning, and I'll see what Dr. Karr in Radiology thinks."
Nurse: "Alright, I think it would be best to keep him here and monitor him further."
I remember when I was 17 I had my appendix taken out. I was SOO confused as to why they kept asking me my name, date of birth and what surgery I was really worried that if I explained it wrong they would perform the wrong surgery. Only to later realise this was a ‘time out’. BUT no one told me, I thought they were relying on my explanation, I was beyond stressed.
Yea but you didn't end up getting the surgery intended for the next patient!!
Haha yes I had my gallbladder removed when I was 14 and remember this as well. They had to give me something for pain before surgery because I gave myself a panic attack and had a horrible headache. Us poor babies
When I was 13 I got knee surgery, they asked me about 5 times which knee they were supposed to be operating on, and it concerned me a lot 😂
At 17 I feel like you should've known better 😂 you might have an anxiety disorder.
@@dillongage good job diagnosing someone across the internet, 17 but in pain waiting for surgery will impair judgement
Craziest part is that he could diagnose, gather and insert a chest tube before EMS arrived.... in an airport. I couldnt suspend my disbelief enough
54:32 all I heard was "your temperature is 101" I was like holy sh*t, (I'm from Australia so we use Celcius) then I realised it was farinhight, you wont believe how stupid I felt.
I have autism and i'd like to add that early intervention programs have helped a lot and i'm pretty good at masking but it was also a very difficult experience for me, and eye contact itself is quite stressful for me. it felt like i was being punished for being myself and it's taken a long time to overcome the people pleasing and anxious behavior arising from this treatment that makes me easier to manipulate and abuse.
I'm sad and sorry that people have manipulated and abused you.
Masking is actually a risk factor of mental health struggles and even suicide
@@cuca_ its also a useful skill to get what you want from normal people and make it less likely for them to physically harm you. im pretty sure if i hadnt learned to pretend to be a normie the kids that bullied me would have tried harder to end me.
@@TheSuperappelflapMasking is mostly harmful, it’s really hard to unmask most of the time. And if you do it a lot you will eventually get burnt out. It is useful, but it’s also really harmful.
@@TheSuperappelflap well we still shouldn’t present masking as some wonderful positive thing. It’s not. Yes sometimes in extreme circumstances it’s the only way to survive, but masking has terrible repercussions on our psyche
The covid episode REALLY hits home for me… my dad passed a couple of weeks into the pandemic from covid which later developed into pneumonia. Tbh, it was probably one of the most traumatizing events in my life, the doctors sent him back to our house despite him being incredibly sick, and took him off of his blood pressure medication (despite it literally saying on the prescription to never do this). He passed three days later in the middle of the night, and I had to do cpr (my sisters and I are lifeguards, but I really didn’t want them there bc it was kind of graphic). Obviously by the time the ambulance arrived, there was absolutely nothing they could do. The hardest part about this was watching my dad start to get better, then massively deteriorate in one night. The night of it happening, my mom and I had decided that we would bring him to the hospital the next day no matter what (my dad had insisted on not going back). So for everyone out there who may have gone through something similar, I just want to say that I know it is really, really hard to keep pushing on, and I know that it can be hard finding someone to talk to, but at least for me, finding the things that still bring joy to your life and focusing on it can really help ❤
Sudden loss is always incredibly tough. When my mom died from a sudden heartattack all i could do was to try and comfort my sister who was the one that found our mom.
I cant give you any tips on what to do or how to feel as its so incredibly personal and i honestly dont know. I just hope that you try and find the rays of light that was and try to not dwell on the darkness that came after it. Thats at least what i try to do and i hope it can help someone else.
Kudos on the CPR btw, being trained or not, seeing your family members like that can shock anyone into forgetting even the most well trained things (i couldnt remember my name, my moms name or even my number when i arrived at the ER), good job!
im sorry for your loss
I'm so sorry for your loss 💔
So sorry to hear of your traumatic experience. Prayers for you and your family.
Some morons would say COVID isn't real and that your dad died from something else
I have autism but because my family didnt understand mental health or think that it was even real, I wasn't diagnosed with autism until I was sixteen years old. For a long time, I knew that there was something wrong with me because of how hard it was for me to make connections. Sometimes I even thought I was a psychopath because I had a lack of empathy. My mother could be crying but I would never know why she was, and I knew that I should be sad for her but I would feel nothing. Shouldn't everyone want to comfort a loved one? I just didn't understand simple things like that. But after my diagnosis, it made me feel a lot better because I finally had an answer for all my habits that my parents deemed were not normal.
No one
Dr Mike listing symptoms for a life threatening illness
Me: Check, check, check, check, and…check!
Did you dieded
Everytime Dr.Mike guesses the ailment and gets it right I love how happy he gets it's cute haha!
I'm sure Dr Mike,watches the episode 1st,b4 he view and critics it to his viewers,so he doesn't get it wrong,or look clueless to us viewers.
I was an ICU nurse during all of Covid and just those fictional scenes made me want to cry and my heart rate went up. I don’t watch this show but it seems pretty accurate.
I hadn’t noticed until recently the visceral response my body had to covid scenes in medical shows..
I'm a janitor at a hospital, well was. Currently have medical problems. But, I got covid 4 times. In 2 years, ended up damaging the things in your lung that absorbs oxygen I guess. Thelittle tunnels in your lungs. Got scar tissue build up. I've had 5 surgeries, and had to stop cancer treatment to make sure that don't kill me first lolol. I don't know how nurses didn't get sick more often, I was just a janitor and vaccinated.
thank you for all of your hard work saving many lives🙏
Thank you
Thank you so much for everything you sacrificed and everything you still carry with you for your healthcare service during that time. Truly. ❤
I love it when you talked about pulmanary hypertension. My mother has that illness and now i understand a little bit more. Thanks Doctor Mike
I have always adored how Freddy portrays autism. My daughter is autistic with savant syndrome in artistic ability. She has always struggled with sounds, loud noises, acoustics. Panic attack in 3..2..1! Bravo Freddy Highmore, thank you for bringing integrity, respect and love to these incredible individuals. And removing the stigma.
I have a diagnosis of NVLD. It's been described as being a "cousin" to aspergers. I just passed my nursing boards and start school again in a month. I love your support of us neurodivergents ❤
Congratulations on passing dear stranger 🎊 ❤❤
Congrats on passing!!
Congratulations
That’s awesome! Congratulations 🥳 Just a heads up that ‘Asperger’s’ is no longer recognised in the DSM (mental condition manual used in most of the world) as there was no distinct differences between people diagnosed with Asperger’s and people diagnosed with Autism. Asperger’s also had a pretty problematic history as it was named after a doctor who was a N@zi/N@zi sympathiser. His work in discussing what we now know as Autism (then Asperger’s) included a lot of horrible and unethical testing and even euthanising kids with certain health conditions or disabilities including these Autistic children. Hope you don’t take this the wrong way, I wasn’t aware of this history until fairly recently and quite upset to learn of it and that I was still using outdated and problematic diagnoses. Hope this is helpful 😊 and again congratulations, we need more neurodivergent folks in medicine 🥳
@@rhiannonh5202 it was also only studied in boys and does not take into account girls affected

I met the guy who plays the “arrogant” doctor at capital hill on a school trip once in high school. He took the time to take photos with us and was overall a very sweet guy❤❤❤
the cut "a little dead lift and bench press never hurt nobody" has me laughing
20:45 I've been spending A LOT of time at the hospital lately, visiting my father whose heart is falling. The old grouchy nurses who have like 30 years of experience seem to run the place. Almost nothing gets done correctly or on time unless one of them is involved. A young doctor and nurse were putting an oxygen tube on my father and didn't hook it up right. 15 minutes later one of the senior nurses came in and instantly noticed it was fucked up and fixed it. A few weeks later on a separate visit, we're waiting for him to be discharged and the same nurse who messed up the oxygen tube won't let him leave because he needed to wait for a prescription or something, and there was some issue with paying for it because it's ~$500 a month. The same nurse who fixed the oxygen tube comes by to check on him and is like "why are you still here you were supposed to be gone hours ago" leaves and comes back with a card for a free 3-month supply of the medication and we were out the door 5 minutes later.
It kills me when the nurses are trying to tell the doctor something and they won't listen because they feel superior to the nurses. The nurses most likely have a far more intimate knowledge of the patient, and probably have a better rapport with them too.
Nurses definitely interact a lot more with patients, honestly i remember reading about things that nurses won’t tell you in Reader’s Digest and it was interesting
Someone I’m very close with isn’t a nurse, but works closely with patients and constantly has to fight that as a professional and literal expert in her field, that what she recommends is the best course of action. More often than not, the doctors ignore her or outright degrade her in front of the caregivers of the patient, in multiple cases, (I’m not going to include all the details for obvious reasons, but multiple doctors said she was wrong/ignored her and hey, guess what, she ended up be 100% correct but SHE got berated by the doctor for “undermining him”) thankfully, that’s starting to change, but it’s still so awful that some doctors care more about their own ego than actually helping patients.
To be honest with u, that was to long of a speech.
"COULD BE A SURGEON I DON'T KNOW YET"
MY BOY! MY BOY. WE AIN'T NEVER GONNA FORGET, HE IS INDEED A SURGEON.
BCBA here. Early intervention is sooo helpful for children with autism, especially those who struggle to communicate. It breaks my heart when I meet adolescents and teens who have no formal method of communication and spend their days frustrated that they can't get their wants and needs met because their caregivers can't always figure it out.
i love the doctors for all they do, its nearly always under appreciated...
Thank you for your commentaries. I am a retired RN who spent 45 years in hospitals as a float with certifications in cardiology,neurostroke,burn unit and medsurg. When the baby docs came on it was quite a learning curve for them. I remember one who was discharging an end stage COPD patient. He went over the discharge meds. The patient stated he needed a refill for ativan. The doctor asked why he needed it and the patient explained that he needed it to breathe. Unfortunately,this occurred during this baby doc's first week. He began upset and sternly told the patient that lorazepam was not a medication for breathing assistance. I understood that he thought this 51 year old was drug seeking. I calmly said to the doctor,that feeling short of breath because of the severe COPD causes anxiety which causes more shortness of breath. It clicked and he was given a one month refill. Thank you for standing up for nurses. It's much appreciated.
51:00 “They haven’t even made the incision yet and she’s flatlining”
Had me on the floor
I've never watched it but my mom did and she loved it. I'm autistic as well so I recognize the behaviors Dr. Shaun exhibits, especially the inconsistent eye contact cause I was always awful at it lol
So Dr. Mike, just recently found you and loving your content, so informative and fun. Now my wife is a huge Good Doctor fan... now we both get to watch you!!! I bookmarked this to watch with her.
Loved the video! I just wanted to add something super important, which is that Autism can present in so many different ways, and this portrayal is just one of them. I'd love to see some more videos from you on Autism, Doctor Mike! I was diagnosed "late" (at 29), and there were so many misconceptions I had while growing up, about who I was and what was "wrong" with me. Diverse Autistic representation is so important!
A few of us have mentioned this, would love to see Dr Mike do a video with someone who is actually Autistic to debunk some myths and misconceptions (that I have actually seen maaaany doctors themselves have). Think it would be a super interesting video!
I was not diagnosed as late as you, but still late and all of this applied to me still.
I didn't even know it existed until I was 13, and that's when I was starting to piece things out.
I would love to see another collaboration with Devin from Legal Eagle! I suggest Season 6 Episode 16 of the Good Doctor. In that episode Shaun gets sued for medical malpractice, so I'd love to see your guys' thoughts/reactions to it!
Agreed
Yes, please!!
Devin and Mike are both logical thinkers and they worked really well together on the Grey's Anatomy malpractice episode.
Yes 🎉
@@Winchester0806 i still laugh at “the prosecution rests”
Folks on the spectrum are so brilliant and no-nonsense…I LOVE it! My favorite patients to work with! ❤❤❤
When I was on the ambulance as an EMT during that time, we literally had to: reuse the N95's then spray it with Lysol, hang them to dry, and seal the wrist ankle and neck openings on the PPE suits with tape. Then the only thing left to do was pray you didn't die from the exposure with ppl who were confirmed to have it and those who weren't confirmed. Especially because, in the beginning, I really didn't know if I would live to the next week. I have asthma, so it was especially unnerving at that time in addition to the other preexisting, airborne respiratory conditions that offered chances of exposure on a normal day. Crazy times.
I know it's not a totally accurate show, but I just love Dr. Murphy, he is so literal and funny! And if you choose to keep watching, he has some amazing growth socially as the seasons continue.
I had mal-rotation. It wasnt found until I was 16. My body had built a sack to kinda push my intestines into. It took years for a doctor to listen but my grandpa's doctor knew exactly what was going on after I met him finally. The surgeon had my mom sign papers to use my file and xrays in his classes, he said he'd never seen anything like it. I went to so many doctors about it too, no one ever believed me enough to look. Ill turn 39 this year, sure glad he found it.
The very start of the compilation reminded me. In an emergency, you don't want to say "Someone call 911", you want to pick someone out and say "You, call 911." In a panic situation like this, if you don't specify who should call, we tend to freeze and expect that someone else will be the one who makes the call, so sometimes no call is made at all as a result.
Autism isnt a thing that needs to be cured, its how society treats us that needs to be cured.
Exactly. We're not the problem here.
The part where the daughter was asking to see her mom hospitalized with Covid brought flashbacks. It was horrible to have my immuno-compromized mother hospitalized and not knowing if I was going to see her again. Longest 16 days of my life!! (and to think people were there for months.)
Hahah
My best friend died alone after fighting covid for 3 months. She was alone the whole time.
I'm glad your mom made it home safely
@@jrmckim Thank you. 🙏🏼 I’m sorry to hear about your friend.
As an autistic person who is an EMT, I watched these reacts a while ago before I went to classes and I didn't really think about it. Those images showing highlights of his veins, and stuff. Its real, rather sorta. It's almost feels like instinct, picking up on details like that and just instantly having a gut action as to what to do, even if you cant recall why immediately. Its a blessing and a curse.
"Never pull out" - Dr. Mike
8:17 as someone with autism who had a lot of help from my parents with social queues, ive built habits and it feels mostly natural now. i know how to have social interactions but i generally prefer to be alone, i loved my dad and i would talk around him for hours when i was young but i didnt talk nearly as much around other people. he would take me out to town and go fishing with me as much as he could. the early intervention may not have been professional but i feel like it was much more natural and it really benefited me in the long run. i also have had pets and been around animals for my whole life.
As someone on the spectrum myself, I can definitely 100% say that it often happens that we see thing many people don't. Especially when it's very minor abnormalities or patterns
As a current brain cancer patient, the show gets wrong that just an MRI can give an accurate diagnosis without a biopsy
I think a lot of that “boring” stuff gets cut for time and keeping the attention of viewers
The episodes after the brain cancer one focus on the diagnosis of tumors and brain cancer with more ways to diagnose it, so they don't get it wrong, they just don't go into every detail in every episode. And also it's part of the plot that they don't do all the other methods at first cause it needs drama.
.
.
.

(Spoiler)
At the end the Dr gets more tests done and gets diagnosed with treatable cancer after the insistence of Shaun. But it was part of the plot to just believe the scan because the doctor with the cancer is a neurosurgeon and they need to show how doctors are the worst patients ever lol
it depends on the form, place and stage of the cancer, but in a average case you are correct, but they cut all the in depth stuff since it would cost like 2x as much time everytime they would do a medical procedure, wich in most cases are boring to watch while not adding anything to the story.
But the diagnosis without the biopsy WAS inaccurate. Once they did the biopsy, they foud out it was a different type of cancer.
You're right, it is inaccurate. But because the doctor is a surgeon, he just took that and filled in the blanks with his prior expertise. That's why doctors are the worst patients - they think they know the answer before even looking for it. The biopsy on the later episodes gave the more accurate diagnosis. 😊
I swear, I learn more from Dr Mike than i do in my biology lessons
I watched this show initially, but having worked in a hospital, there was a lot that I just couldn't overlook. There is just no way any hospital would take on the liability of a doctor who has so little capacity for self-regulation. It is stunning how hard some of his superiors fight to keep him around after a melt-down or some other incident, when they shouldn't.
Fun fact! Both Lisa Edelstein (Lisa Cuddy from House MD) and Robert Sean Leonard (James Wilson from House MD), have appeared as guests in the Good Doctor series, which is also created by the same man who created House MD. That leads me to believe that the Good Doctor does, in fact, take place in the same universe as House MD, and (spoilers below for those who haven't finished House MD)
.
.
.
.

...it means Wilson lived after all, Cuddy found a new job in the medical field, and everyone is happy!
Now, all we need to confirm this (and to have the og PPTH trio back together), is for Hugh Laurie to make a guest appearance in a future episode ;) fingers crossed!
They are not the same characters though:(
Keep dreaming 😂😅
Dr Mike, I appreciate you trying to let people know some information about Autism, especially letting people know that thereare over-exaggerations in the show and that not all Autistic people are savants. However, given the immense lack of understanding that exists in the medical community as well as the public about Autism, it would have been great to have a conversation (or analyse this program alongside) an actually Autistic person. I would love to see you do a video debunking myths about Autism with someone who is part of the community. Unfortunately, medical professionals who are neurotypical have attributed to many problematic stereotypes and extremely harmful treatment options (such as ABA) over the years, and it is hard for this to be addressed because these deficit-related beliefs are passed down from older medical professionals to training professionals and the cycle continues on and on. It would be great to see an awesome medical professional, such as yourself, learn from the Autistic community about what living with Autism is actually like and what the actual difficulties associated with this disability are, and that it does not have to be spoken about in a deficit lens 100% of the time. I went undiagnosed into my early 20s because of some of the stereotypes that persist in the general and medical community and it has led to a lot of mental distress, I hope in the future this is less of a persistent issue and more young kids get the diagnosis and supports they need to thrive! :)
I agree so wholeheartedly! I really hope Doctor Mike does something more in-depth and informative about Autism!
Autistic to autistic,
That’s not this channels theme. Dr. Mike breaks down how medically accurate medical shows are. He doesn’t break down the characters but the medicine and how hospitals work. He doesn’t need to change that because there’s an autistic doctor anymore than he’d someone in a wheelchair if he was breaking down Dr Kildare. There are many other videos by autistics breaking down Shawn already. There’s no reason to do that here in place of medical facts.
That’s an idea though. I’d love to see breakdowns of old medical movies from the 1930s like the Kildare series from a modern medicine perspective.
@@AngryPug76 yeah I get that and fair enough about Dr Mikes reviewing shows segments. But given we all know how much misinformation is out there about Autistic people and also the Autistic communities views on this program it would still be a cool video to see brought to Dr Mike’s wide audience in the hope that some people get a bit of education and understanding about folks like us.
Breaking down old medical movies would be cool too though, or even docos, to see how medicine and the understanding of certain conditions has changed over time.
@@rhiannonh5202 Yea, but Dr Mike is a medical doctor. Like the scene he pointed out with the guy having a break down, that’s a job for a psychiatrist. He’s not qualified.
This approach normalized The Autistic Doctor to just being one of the doctors who had different obstacles to overcome from the other doctors who also had their own obstacles to overcome, which was far more supportive than anything else he could’ve done.
How do we get his attention to get him to review 30s and 40s doctor dramas? We can’t be the only two who want that. Then again since we’re autistic i guess we technically could be.
How is ABA harmful?
I always loved watching you but I never thought I would be one of the people you help. I didn't know I'd be a patient, especially for so long. After being diagnosed with two chronic diseases. Thank you so much for being a bright light in the health field that's often filled with darkness and mourning.
Watching the last bit of this is so rough. I worked in healthcare throughout covid and that start of it was so hard. I remember going into work most days and just start crying.
as someone on the autism spectrum (specifically aspergers syndrome) who grew up with kinda troublesome parental figures and a pet for emotional support I relate to Shaun. My experience with Autism how I like to put it is like watching life through a TV screen trying to figure out how best i'd fit into the script... what role I could fill... what person I could become... what I could leave behind when I reach the series finale. I also have trouble letting go of my childhood feeling that I don't want to grow up too fast but also I feel like im lagging behind in life. My social skills are also Iffy... I have trouble starting conversation and carrying them but if I get into the groove of talking I just talk and talk and talk until the person im talking to gets annoyed or cuts me off... I constantly feel awkward interacting with people.... i've found it is much easier to communicate through text / behind a screen than it is to talk to someone face to face.
Bro are you me because you just described me perfectly
nice, i also have asperger’s so I understand your struggles, pain, and obstacles.
Possibly the most impressive thing about this show and House to my way of thinking is both the lead actors were able to pretty successfully hide their British accents. I have to admit House used to drive me slightly bonkers with what seemed like an over diagnosis of Lupus (systemic lupus erythematosus) as the cause of the persons ills.
*britich accent* It's never a lupus !
And I agree, I was so shocked the first time I saw an interview of Hugh with a British accent, he was 100% American to me 😂
And freddy Highmore speeks French and Spanish very well, thats even more impressive ! 🤯 (I saw an interview of him once on French TV and my brain couldn't register that is was really him, speaking fluent French 😂)
@@LinaMed europeans get different languages in highschool, so most of us speak french, spanish and german. Not fluently tho!
The black girl resident in this show is also British...it's amazing! Our American standard accents are super hard for British actors :3
@@AlienXCherie american accent is super easy. english is my second language and americans think im a native when i speak to them over the phone. had a guy once from Chicago who asked me if i watched the ball game last night from whatever the Chicago baseball club is called. i was like, sir, i live in Holland, id have to get up at 3am and get ESPN's streaming service to watch your ball game.
a proper british accent is much harder to imitate, i cant settle on one accent.
scottish accent is also easy if you can roll your Rs properly
Its never lupis
I think the main reason for all the "crazy" and "impossible" diagnoses they do is because the same guy that created "House M.D." (David Shore) also developed this show.
Shaun Murphy and House are very similar just in very different ways - Murphy has autism and savant syndrome while House is just referred to as a savant while possibly being on the spectrum. So not only are they are both savants, both also have something that interferes with normal daily life. (Autism for Murphy and chronic leg pain/drug addiction for House)
My husband had a glass bowl explode and a large chunk of glass went into his foot. He was home alone and too scared to pull the glass out himself, thankfully, as pulling it out would have caused massive bleeding. He ended up getting many stitches in his foot because of the glass. Never pull something out! It can be preventing a vein or artery from bleeding excessively!
Hey Mike, can we appreciate that these “surgeons” can do radiology, doctoring, and surgery, also they boot out any patient that isn’t from Hollywood lol
Dude, out of all the other doctors that review content I appreciate you the most.
Specifically I like how you make a distinction between the reality of the situation and how this character could have super powers that allow him to do something that real humans just can’t.
Pardon my ignorance. Who else is there? I remember a female Doc/creator I can't remember the name
21:16 My experience as a patient is that the lead doctor asks the questions, I (as the patient) answer them, then the last question the doctor asks is if everyone participating in the procedure is in agreeance. The only time that changes is if I'm in an anxiety state that prevents me from being able to communicate, but the last question asked is still the same and the timeout is still done while I'm awake.
I love watching your commentary. I have been in the medical field for over 25 years (non clinical) but in administration. I didn’t realize how many more snafu’s were in these MD shows that I missed. Much more fun to watch with you! Esp the Good Doctor.
I love his reactions to things 😂
True
8:43 Forcing an autistic child to make eye contact so "conversations seem more normal" is telling the child their comfort carries less weight than how they're perceived. It's literally teaching them to mask. Surely we can do better. We have to. ❤
I agree. I'm autistic and being "corrected" (yelled at, hit, etc) for not making eye contact, stimming, going mute or talking too much, and "rewarded" for doing stuff correctly harmed me more than it helped, and this was wirh my family, I imagine going to "early intervention therapy" must be similar, and from what I've heard, it's about training autistic kids as if they were dogs, and that's f*cked up. I hope it gets banned and people stop saying it's a good thing
@stardustflavor4165 that's definitely not normal. If you get hit fir not making eye contact that's super messed up.
@@user-eu4we4eg3v yeah, it's messed up, but now I don't live with the person who did it, and learned that it was, in fact, not normal to be punished for something like not making eye contact
@@stardustflavor4165 Good to hear you're no longer living with the abusive person. ❤️

I've never watched this show but from the few scenes and clips I've seen, Freddie Highmore portrays it perfectly. I was diagnosed with Asperger's when I was 10.
I just graduated from nursing school when COVID happened and I remember us being worried about our PPE. I actually worked on a COVID unit and it the part about people distancing from you is true even with people from other floors at the hospital. It was a crazy learning curve from school that’s for sure!
Not sure if you are aware but this is based on an actual Korean Dr. Apparently he truly is this gifted. It would be great to see if you can maybe react to his actual story
Daniel Dae Kim transformed his career moving from in front of the camera to behind, by adapting this for American TV.
It would be cool to see you react to some of the medical scenes of the show, Bones, which is a show about a forensic anthropologist and an FBI agent working together to solve murders. It has quite a bit of medical scenes obviously.
This is a tad bit old but Fun fact the writer of bones based Temperance off of one of their Autistic Friends
But I grew up watching that show & it's one of my favorites for sure
I started taking an EMT class a few months ago just before I turned 17. Now quite a lot of the stuff Dr. Mike says actually makes sense.
Im having a bad anxiety attack right now and this video is super relaxing to me thank you
I love this show! I never know if they’re medically accurate. I just enjoy the acting and the cast. Great storylines.
My mum is an ICU nurse and during the pandemic, hearing her and her work friends talk so calmly about how they'd all accepted they will very likely get covid was terrifying but also so admirable.
Mum did get covid, although not from work. It was from my twin nieces christening which we now refer to as "the COVID christening" because so many people tested positive afterwards and all because one person attended despite testing positive two days before🤦🏻♀️
Were they all OK?
@leos9308 oh yeah, everyone was fine who and those who got covid recovered relatively quickly :)
Speaking of jugulars, random fact: My brother-in-law survived accidentally being impaled by a javelin through the neck 😵💫
Long story short, BIL was sitting in the grass with other track and field athletes. One of them stupidly threw his javelin at over BIL's shoulder at his bookbag. It landed about a foot away, with one end sticking out of the ground at an angle that BIL couldn't see. So when he ran over at a slight angle to grab his backpack **shhhink**
Through the neck, jaw, and out the back of his head!! The javelin was resting on his jugular 🤢 A one in a million chance the way it came in that instead of stabbing the vein, it pushed it to the side.
Look it up on Google. Last name, Brobst. It was a case studied at Penn State University and he was mentioned in a stand up comedians act. And yes, he still has the javelin 😂
Really enjoyed the compilation and the explanations. While I can't fully appreciate / relate to all of them (simply because they don't currently apply to me or anyone I know), I did enjoy the explanation on why the doctors always listen to multiple places near my heart, that makes a lot more sense that they're trying to listen all around my heart.
Dr. Mike is the best
Seconded

Yessssss
He is the good doctor
39:00 The way he hesitates before giving a hug... My older sister has some autistic traits, and I find that moment of careful calculation really accurate. All people on the autism spectrum are very different, but the two I know (or know of) really love a hug and enjoy not having to think whether or not it's appropriate.
I have autism, was undiagnosed until I was 31.
Struggled a lot through life thanks to it, and my mother loving shows like this for as long as they existed and that made my life extra hard because I did not act like the stereotypical savant of these types of shows; grew to despise this kind of media as a result.
Early arrival! Yes, my son just started his residency. Always about an hour earlier than his supposed arrival time. He wants to be ready for attending and his senior residents arrive. I know he is very serious about his work.
The covid episode really hits home for me. My mom died in 2020 because of covid, but she didn't have the virus. She was hospitalised for severe fluid retention which was being caused by thrombocytopenia because of her genetic condition (autoimmune) and liver/kidney damage. Because of the very large amount of fluid buildup around her abdomen from her plasma leaking she was also short of breath. She was kept on the respiratory ward despite needing renal facilities and despite 3 negative covid tests. I literally told the consultant the day before she died, she has thrombocytopenia, you need to look for that. I'm not a doctor, but I do work in pharmacy and I knew my mother's medical history, it was kind of obvious, she was bright yellow as well, like severely yellow. The consultant laughed at me, said she would test for it but that it was unlikely... 6 hours later they were giving her steroids, but it was too late by that point.
I'm so sorry :c
I'm so sorry..
im sorry for your loss
I’m so sorry
This was one of the things that pissed me off during CoViD. Medical institutions ignored so many other things. If it wasn't CoViD, they didn't care. It caused so many unnecessary deaths, but they were okay with that because it helped them sow more panic.
I'm so sorry for your loss, especially when it could likely have been easily prevented if they had actually cared.
Interacting with people who aren't similarly neuro divergent face to face is probably one of the harder things I've had to learn to do. I'm still not very great at it but there was a time when I didn't understand metaphors as a child. Even as an adult my emotions and understandings aren't always... correct? I've had people close to me die and felt no sadness whatsoever the listened to a random song and bawled for hours. It's hard to explain how differently things affect me from the average person. I haven't really watched this show but seeing how his very literal point of view is portrayed reminds me of how viewed the world as a kid, everything was either true or untrue right or wrong correct or incorrect. It took a lot of therapy and growth to get as far as I've come and I still struggle. I'm high functioning and I've met some people who were non verbal or have other various complications. The idea that relatively speaking I have it pretty good and I still struggle absolutely blows my mind. People who keep pushing through their hardships and the people who help those of us that struggle get nothing but respect and love from me.
If anyone is curious, one of the reasons laundry detergent is dangerous to ingest is because detergent is made to denature fat and proteins to remove stains, and works as a solvent for a lot of things - including stuff like blood, urea, mucus, etc. which means if it’s concentrated enough, it can burn and dissolve your insides
