This man had the largest nose in the world, but what about a person will the largest scrotum in the world? Check out his story here! ua-cam.com/video/BUyrWKfg2IA/v-deo.html
I'm not sure I liked the way you went about making this video. It felt as though you were making fun of this man and because he is from a country where he probably doesn't have the internet he won't ever see it which is even worse. I also found the brief picture of the Black man and the words PAUSE< BREATHE< LOVE on the screen to be poking fun of this man.
Why you would be smiling and acting happy instead of showing empathy for this man I don't understand. I think you took the wrong approach and made yourself as a young porofessional look bad. I guess that's what young people do now.
How can I get intouch with u... I like the way you explain . I have an ectropian eyelid, surgeons have failed to reconstruct.
They say I got testicular cancer, cuz it abnormal the way my sack is growing.
The most disgusting word Dr Youn ever speaks is, *_satisfying!_* 😂
I’m astonished by how great his nose looked after the surgery. Good for him, I can’t even imagine how awful it must have been for him to live for years with that growth and not being able to find any help.
I wish Dr. Sandra Lee collabs Dr. Youn i mean they both excellent.
Money talks in the US. No national health care so the unnecessay suffering of 0000s for doctors to gain publicity and fame in offering free treatment.
IKR! Poor guy. He looks like such a sweetheart too. He has a really friendly looking face now. He looks like someone who is a really sweet person.
Watching him hug his family and friends, that must have been one of the first times he felt not only comfortable enough to hug his family without wondering if he grossed them out, but it was probably one of the first times he'd been able to give them a full hug in years too. That much growth would make so many embraces difficult.
I can't imagine letting it get this big, at a 1/4 inch I would have gone crazy trying to get rid of it
The increase in quality of life this must have provided him with must be incalculable, like for his physical health and mental health but probably also his ability to get a job or even simply going to the store without being stared at and such. So glad Dr. Lee found colleagues that were able to help this man that got this health problem through no fault of his own and which other doctors refused to help him for.
YESS @Isabelle Blanchet. ..I was really shocked about his Painful Story...I wrote a long Comment because it was going to my Heart...what a System in a "democratic Western rich Country"???? 🙄😣
@@BirgitBauhaus I'm Canadian so I don't live with that medical system, but as a Canadian I'm always stunned by what happens in the US. Just watching US based medical shows where they always talk about money and insurance makes me anxious. It was such a nice change of pace when I watched "Saving Hope", money and insurance are never mentioned because it's a show based in Toronto, Canada.
Sleeping must be so hard. It's hard enough with a blocked nose for a few nights, this poor man had to deal with it for years.
@@isabelleblanchet3694 : thx for your Comment! I know that Canada has a different Politic and Governemt and that the whole Community and Behaviour of the Canadians is so different to the US. IT seems to me that you are much more "European-Style" - but I'm to far away and haven't lived in Canada, so this is only my Opinion and nothing for "sure"! 😉😍
But the System of the US and how they treat their Folks/their People. ..for me it is nothing I would like to live with.
@@BirgitBauhaus Canada has always had a more centred government with a liberalism and social justice culture and a sense of collective responsibility. The US has far more far left and far right governments with a large emphasis on capitalism. It's two totally different kind of political culture.
A doctor calling out the screwed up healthcare system?? I’m here for it!!
Idk if it's good or sad, but so many doctors have even admitted it
Yea. A really rich one who won't except medicare insurance
it is not the healthcare but the insurance companies. I did volunteer work at a surgeon's office and I remember a few expletives about the insurance companies when his secretary had to get permission for tests. He has been listed in news magazines as one of the top surgeons in the US, if he says that a test is needed then odds are it is needed.
@@nightshadekelly well he’s a plastic surgeon, he doesn’t provide life-saving or even health-saving care
Yes least it's free in the uk
Medical professionals have failed this man for 11 yrs. This is absolutely unexcusable. I'm so glad he finally got the help he deserves!!!🙏🏽
You mean politicians
@@xModerax Medical professionals could treat him despite anything else. Politicians really do not hold the power that people let them have, at least not here in the US of course that is what I am referring to but you know... people and such.
I really wish more people would really think on who holds the power over their day to day lives and how they can take more of it for themselves instead of selling it for convenience and practicality. Personally believe the movement has already started, and it is a peaceful one that I am referring to. Ones that focus on building communities back from the destruction over the past century, focuses on producing locally grown high nutrition Veg and Fruit that is not covered in Round Up, and other harmful substances, and on.
I think using Flint as an example of why taking this power back is important. Depending on where you live it is legal to have your own rainwater collection and water treatment. "Who has the money for such things?" You may ask, "Communities." is my answer.
@@SoloAdvocate I think it has more to do with the fact that certain aspects of society have become convinced to fight against their own best interests. These are usually very superstitious types of people who will believe almost anything they are told without much in the way of evidence to back them up. These talking points are often backed up by the very politicians who get to decide this power over us in the first place. This often gets mistaken for actual evidence because they trust these people implicitly to act only in their best interests, but are usually only acting in the interest of themselves. If people had more examples of the people who have slipped through the cracks like this I'm sure things would be different. If they only understood that these things can literally happen to anyone at anytime and that most healthcare plans don't take this into account they would be quite concerned. No that I'm the best at planning for the future but these people never even think about it. They are too busy whining about wokeness in everything, that includes the medical industry to care about their own health anymore. They aren't the majority of the population but they are an influential one nonetheless, they have the power to keep it all tied up in red tape forever sadly.
He could of gotten professional help in that time.
@@SoloAdvocatethose medical professionals need money. too do those surgeries, to eat, to pay their student loans and on and on it goes. so no this is on the government and politicians.
My jaw dropped seeing his nose after surgery. It looks amazing! They did a fantastic job to sculpt his nose. I can't imagine how much better he feels physically and mentally. Also, I appreciate a doctor calling out the system.
I'M SO HAPPY HE GOT FIXED!!! 😭😭😭😭 I first saw this man several months ago on Dr. Pimple Popper's channel when she saw him for a consultation and I've been so worried for him ever since. I cried when I saw his nose looking normal. I'm so happy for him!
@Alisa Vewa begone bot
@ edo0girl2.0 ; Same was/is happened to me....this Story is going deeply to my Heart and reminds me to my Work a lot of Years before!
A big THANK YOU 😍🤗💓✌ to Doc Lee and the whole Doc's and this Hospital for doing and making the Life of this Man much human and healthy and lucky again!
They all together make a gorgeous, fantastic "Job" 😍🤗💓✌❣👏👏👏
OMG I was crying too! I can't even imagine how much better he feels
@༒☬sakuraa☬༒ go away bot
I'm glad he got fixed to. You don't want him passing those genes on to future generations.
It’s so heartbreaking when people like him can’t get any professional help whatsoever. I know the medical system in the US is very different from here in Denmark, but it baffles me how you as a doctor could look at a man like this and refuse to treat him.. I know they probably had to, but if you became a doctor to help people, it must feel devastating to turn so many patients away. Just because of money..
Australian here, US doctors seem to not care-- some of the patients in Dr. Lee's show come forward to her as a last resort because the other doctors they've seen just don't care. Add that to the fact that if you get sick in the USA, you have medical debts that you can't do much about unless you have tens of thousands of dollars to spare.
US doctors work for the insurance companies. They know if you don't have insurance that you can't pay, the prices are too exorbitant, so they will turn you away. I was even turned away with a broken foot. I just let it heal wrong and it still hurts a year later
@@faithbarcelo4795 oh no
Sorry about that
Hope your leg is getting better
What happened to this guy at the hospital is highly illegal here in the US. You can walk into any emergency department and be seen regardless of insurance status or finances and be treated just the same. Many hospitals don't even ask for your insurance info until the end of your visit or hospital stay which is nice because it keeps docs from looking at that info and just treating the patient for what they need. It's far from a perfect system but having dealt with "universal healthcare" and US healthcare I chose the US any day. The skill and cutting edge tech, the incredibly short wait times, the ability to choose your doctors and surgeons (even getting as many opinions as you want and basically "interviewing" doctors) is unparalleled. Well worth the out of pocket cost!
@@elizabethmion4595 @Elizabeth Mion Respectfully, I have to disagree with you. I personally was turned away from an urgent care here in the US for not having insurance and I had a broken foot. I also disagree that the quality of care justifies the ridiculousness of the healthcare system. I would say I receive better care back in Spain, and it's free and I would NEVER get turned away even if I didn't have my medical card on me. The wait times are significantly less, I would never have to wait months before being seen like in America, and the quality of care is much better. Even for things that don't fall under insurance like dental care. Medical professionals abroad ACTUALLY care about their patients, which is something I have not seen in the US unfortunately.
What I've never understood is, what kind of a person do you have to be to laugh at someone with a disability? Even as a child I had compassion.
A drunk or an asshole.
Amen!! You read my mind. I can't believe there are people out there who would laugh at someone else's misfortune. I'd love to start some kind of "Go Find Me" for this man. He deserves a nice vacation or something.
An american.
@@aff77141 I’m an American and I would never laugh at someone like that.
@@aff77141 Youd be suprised, people from all around the world can laugh at disabilities unfortunately
Doctors who genuinely care are a true gift to mankind.
Heartbreaking that no one would help this guy. Glad for these doctors who helped him.
It must have been devastating for him to be repeatedly sent away from hospitals with no one willing to help.
I'm so glad that he finally has his life back.
It’s considered cosmetic even though it was impacting his ability to breathe and eat, so ERs are under no obligation to remove it.
@@evilsharkey8954 Which is honestly insane.
This was one of my favorite episodes of dr pimple popper.
My heart broke for this gentleman. There was another episodes where her driver for the day had a large rhynophyma and not only that but a cancerous spot on his cheek. She right away noticed and had him come in. She not only improved the quality of his life but saved it as well.
I know many things are not covered by insurance but sometimes things done for mere cosmetic reasons are just as life saving as surgeries for life threatening medical reasons.
There has to be a better way to provide medical and dental care in the United States ☹☹
There is, but we don’t want to pay the extra taxes for it, even if we ultimately saved money the way every other single payer healthcare country has.
We won't because we are obsessed with quantity of life over quality of life. Who cares how expensive and painful chemo is, I'm not ready to say goodbye to grandma so 6 more agony filled months it is
Here in Brazil, this would not be a cosmetic only procedure because it literally endangered his life. For example, one can get a blepharosplasty if one's eyelid is blocking one's vision. He'd be covered by his life insurance or could go to public health (although he'd wait forever in the 2nd case).
We really need all of us taxpayers to agree that human life matters. I mean our money is getting taxed anyway, it's not so shockingly difficult to just use it to take care of human health. Heck, we already have Medicare but so far just reserve it for the disabled and seniors.
We need a revolution with our health care system. How do we expect this man to thrive with this condition? I hate this world we live in. 🥺
And they say America is a dream land!! They have the sh!ttest heath care 😭😭
@@Amy_omer the health care isn't that bad, it's the access to it that's lacking.
@@zenseed75 I don't know but I saw so many cases like that I was wondering how the heck no one is helping like at least a group of people can collect some money for these critical cases 😭😭😭
Bernie Cat Don't worry USA, Phillippines is shitty same situation too.
People need to do more personal health care n medical practices. Go to a hospital or doctors n watch all the cases that should of been self done at home from simple cuts to certain broken bones etc. To even removals of stuff. Granted this was more then a broken finger or etc I'm not paying $1 even for someone's finger to be reset by a "medical professional" when the bills gonna probly be thousands of dollars n it's something they easily could of done better in less time with no money n virtually no schooling even where it occurred.
Huge hand to the surgical team who performed this operation! It made me feel great just seeing this man's life made so much easier, I know everyone involved has to feel a huge sense of satisfaction for giving this man back his life!!! This should have been offered to this man pro-bono, a loooong time ago! Better late than never! You all did an amazing job!
I remember this guy! They did such a great job on his nose! And his quality of life has to be a 100 times better! I'm so happy for him and I'm so glad that they were willing and able to help him!
I didn’t know what to expect when seeing what his nose looked like after the initial masses were removed. But wow! They did a phenomenal job. I truly hope he makes up for the time he lost at the mercy of his growths.
Living in Sweden the most incredible thing for me is how so many people in the US dont seem to get the medical help they need.
Your population compared to the US population. Your way strict immigration policies vs our just come in as an illegal draining the system. Your country is predominantly the same ethnic makeup and language vs here. The system works because of things like that. Here, we have freeloaders that drain the system.
@@brycesolomon9933wow that’s a lot of racist and xenophobic dog whistles in one comment.
@@rachelmcdonough1506 because I said the truth?
@@brycesolomon9933 if your "truth" is "foreigners and people who are different from me are bad and drains on society" then you nailed it. Immigrants are the BACKBONE of our society and work a lot harder than most. You just want an excuse to hate outsiders.
@@rachelmcdonough1506is he wrong?
It's sad to see people turned away because their illness isn't considered a medical emergency!
And he didn’t have insurance or a mountain of money to pay for it. If our healthcare system allowed for things like this to be fixed early and affordably, it would never have gotten to the point where he needed general anesthesia, tracheostomy, and a surgical and reconstructive team to repair it.
Only in USA. Or third world country. This would never happen in Europe
This guy is so brave for carrying himself during 11 years without help - which is unbelievable - I guess the majority of people would have ended their live way sooner. So sorry for all people suffering and not getting the help they deserve as human beings. Thank you so much Dr. Youn
Dr Lee is amazing. The amount of actual care she shows people is incredible ❤
This case made me so angry at the American health system, or lack of a health system This man should never have been forced to live with that tumor on his face and the doctors that turned him away should be ashamed. They failed their oath to heal the sick. Thank you Dr. Lee and the other medical professionals that treated this man with kindness and skill.
Don't blame the doctors for the state of the system
@@KaitouKaiju Doctors are the people that advise politicians on what the system should look like.
The health insurance system is not the health CARE system. We could have a single payer system (like every other industrialized nation), pay less overall, and keep great health care providers.
@@GO-xs8pj That isn’t true. SOOOO many doctors want the state to be fixed. It’s insurance companies mostly and other people who financially benefit. Not to mention, a large person is the public has been brainwashed to be against changing to a better healthcare system.
@@GO-xs8pj They are absolutely not. 😂 It’s the people whose medical school is paid for by insurance companies who then use them as lobbyists. I used to work for a pretty big insurance company, and I can tell you that the only doctors with any political power are the ones they were paying.
Amazing transformation for that man.
It's such a great thought that the days of not bring able to breathe, eat or sleep properly are know fixed. In addition he gets his life back from not looking so unusual that other people would stare, make comments or make him feel worse.
The skills from the surgical team were terrific!
His quality of life must have increase by so many levels it must be off the charts by comparison. Like physical health, mental health, ability to get a job, etc.
Germany here:
Not gonna lie, it's really hard to watch, but I feel really happy for this man from the bottom of my heart!
In germany he would have get help immediately!
❤
Same here in Netherlands, just go to the hospital and they will remove it the same day! No worries about the bill!!
😂 you guys scared of Russia
@@shop-a-holic3194 😂 Netherlands is a small country 😂😂 my guy ofc no shit you guys can do that. Don’t forget you guys are a extremely weak country and full of cowards. Communist nazi supports your county always has been
@@benevolent2077 Better scared of Russia than being scared to call an ambulance or police when we need help.
I absolutely love this & the fact that this man’s problem was not self inflicted. That’s what plastic surgery is for, IMHO. The doctors who helped him truly made a huge difference in his quality of life. And that’s amazing.
I am so glad that Dr. Lee helped this man. It’s a miracle that the thing didn’t suffocate him during the night.
What an intense delicate surgery. Omg how miserable! Happy for him Bless those Doctors!
I liked him since I first saw him. He is so sincere and those expressive.
Expressions not Expressive
It should be a crime for doctors to refuse to treat patients for things that affect their quality of life to this degree.
I can't imagine having to struggle so much with basic activities like eating and sleeping. I'm glad he got his normal sized nose back!
It's not the doctors choice
The problem is the insurance companies
@@KaitouKaiju okay so why do the treat gunshot victims without insurance. The ambulance take to too the hospital even if you can't pay.
That's the entire premise of socialized healthcare. Doctors have to be paid in order to live and be able to afford to provide care. Socializing medicine just makes it possible for everyone to access care.
Both the hospital/practice and the doctor should be charge with criminal negligence. Hospitals are profit-making entities and they don't care about human life, they also have a lot of power here
Guess what? It is a crime.
GOD BLESS THESE DOCTORS WHO ACTUALLY DO WHAT THEY SAY THEY WOULD DO WHEN TAKING THEIR OATH! GOD BLESS & PROTECT THEM! THANK YOU DR. YOUN!
I am so happy that his nose has been treated. So sorry that it was not fixed in the beginning. God bless the doctors and the medical staff for treating this man !!!
I cried when he talked about going to the hospital and being turned away because I've been in similar situations with my teeth. I do hope one day soon the USA catches up with other countries in the healthcare field when it comes to helping people. I'm so happy for him now!! He just sounds happier!
Solution: don't bring any ID, claim you're homeless. Works here in Seattle.
I share your pain. I have all the symptoms of MS, A doctor told me so, but the hospitals here in Mississippi won't do tests to confirm bc I'm uninsured, and poor. So I self medicate, and get thru each day by gritting my teeth. (Literally...I clench my jaw sometimes...it locks up...) My legs feel so weak I can barely walk, I hurt all the time...but I hold down a full time job to keep a roof over my head. Without a diagnosis, I can't get assistance. I'M on my own. Praying for death and I'm only 56. Some say America is the greatest? Btw, I've worked & paid taxes my whole adult life, rarely asked for help. America is great...if you're rich.
@@youtubecensors5419 Thanks for the tip....been trying to get an MS diagnosis, and maybe care, for a decade. Turned away, treated like garbage, bc I'm poor & uninsured in Mississippi. Republican Governor refused FED supplements to treat the poor, so now hospitals here are closing everyday, and poor are dying. Maybe THAT'S why Republicans are forcing rape victims to birth the rapists babies...they are killing so many of us older, sick people. If you love someone in a Republican controlled state....help them ESCAPE IT.
An incredible result from what they started with! Props to the surgeons
fuck off pornbots
@@foxley5374 I know right? Annoying enough for a mass reporting methinks!
Begone,stupid bots!
Can you help me report these bots,everyone?
I'm so happy they could help him to finally be able to breathe, eat, sleep and function without all this weight on his face and infections. He suffered so much for years, it's so unfortunate no doctor did surgery sooner.
Edit:
I wish they weighted the growths they removed. Probably did but I didn't hear it mentioned in your reaction later aside from your guess.
I am immensely happy for that man. Thank goodness for our doctors, surgeons, and healthcare workers. You are angels.
Seeing the end result made me smile ear-to-ear, I'm glad Roger can have a nore normal life now, kudos to him, and the Dr. Pimple-Popper crew!
seeing patients with issues like this gentleman’s makes me feel grateful of my body, which is not perfect but, good enough. He said he was sad, I was sad for him.
he looked to good after everything healed! :-] his new haircut suits him really well, i've noticed it looks like he couldn't even shave before because of the growth on his nose :-( his quality of life must have improved so much!!
I love it when they let her do these major life improvements. I know it's expensive and the show helps it get paid for
Hard to imagine what it is like to not be able to breathe or eat properly for years! I am so glad Roger finally got help. He must be so much more comfortable and he looks incredible.
This one was beyond her abilities and she got surgical assistance for him. Such a great improvement.
This made me cry, both from sadness for him and then for happiness. So sad that he got into that condition in the first place and so happy that Dr Lee was able to fix it.❤️
Gosh, that made me cry. This just makes me so incredibly angry that someone in this situation cannot get help in the so-called "richest country in the world"...this man pays taxes just like everyone else. He deserved more. So grateful for the help he has received.
If I was a plastic surgeon, I would pay for Roger's surgeon and do it right away, no one deserves to life in shame of himself
I love how positive and informative your commentary is! It's just like watching it with a smart friend, no drama or need to find something to criticize
A huge wave of emotion came over me when I saw him visit his family after the procedure. This was such an interesting video with a very satisfying ending. I'm very happy for him. :)
He is a legendary doctor
It's awful how often people are judged and blamed like 'how could you let it happen for this long" but many times it's about not finding the right help and not having the funds for it ://
It's because medicine in the US is a business venture, not a right. The US is a wholly fucked up place.
I find this so beautiful. Props to those doctors for doing such a good job and that man for having he resilience to get through that challenge and appreciate this image. It disgusts me that people made fun of him and that the healthcare system declined him due to a lack of insurance. I hope the government realised that their health care needs to change
To me, it seems that whatever breathing obstruction he may risk from surgery doesn't begin to compare to what he is experiencing now. At least...in my "expert" amateur opinion. I love how you gave a "sout out" to Dr. Lee. You are the best!
God bless Dr. Lee and her colleagues. Life changing for her patients.
This one made me cry. God bless him. What a beautiful thing they have done for him.
surgery should be an art form because... wow! that result is amazing
It is so great and admirable knowing there are doctors out there willing to help people that noone else wants to touch.
Kudos to those two plastic surgeons! They did an amazing job.
I enjoy these longer, more informative videos. The short ones are fine every so often, but the longer ones are more entertaining.
I am so glad this man can now have a better life than he had before. He can now breathe and eat better than he could before his surgery. Prayers for a speedy recovery. God bless him, the surgeon and the surgical team.
Our medical system is truly broken. I have Type 1 diabetes, I have since I was 6 years old…I have lipohypertrophy where I’ve injected insulin for years. My insurance won’t cover removal of my insulin pads which are causing insulin resistance and reduced quality of life, along with shame for my body. I sometimes cry to myself about it…I hope I can one day afford liposuction to remove them.
This is amazing Dr Sandra Lee this made me cry Thank you for all the Drs. That helped this man from a healthcare system that failed him
OMG, They did such an Amazing Job. Brought tears to my eyes. He literally has his life back to enjoy ❤ May God Bless this Man
I'm so happy for this man. I cried. He must be so much happier now.
Wow!!!
Thank you 😊 and God Bless 🙏 those doctors for helping. And shame on the other doctors and your broken healthcare system for forcing that poor man to live that way. Thanks for sharing. 💜
He looked fantastic afterwards... I was actually shocked at how well it looked. I'm so happy for this man 💚
Dr. Lee, Dr. Hamilton and Dr. Osbourne are three kick-butt surgeons! Great commentary from Dr. Youn.
This is a great story. I’m so glad they could help this man! I can’t imagine what living with that must’ve been like for him. Blessings to the good, helpful people in the world! 😀
Just in regards to some of the commentary regarding healthcare costs, we shouldn't overlook the costs of the medications themselves, or what's required to access them.
Dr. Yoon mentioned Soolantra, which is a product that contains 1% ivermectin, and there are generic versions out there.
In terms of medications, the cost isn't all that high, with generic products running around $100-150, but for individuals with no health insurance, or drug coverage (I'm Canadian so the distinction is important), it's probably outside the amount they can afford.
To add insult to injury, it's prescription only, so the cost to obtain that also has to be factored in, and at the early stages...when it would be effective, it probably wasn't viewed as a health priority...and probably little more than an aesthetic issue.
It's good to see him get treatment, and no healthcare system should allow for anyone to reach this point.
At least in this case, Roger was able to by treated, and I was honestly amazed at the level of reconstruction that they were able to perform.
Even surgery when it was still small would have saved the healthcare system a lot more than waiting until it was so bad that he needed a surgical team, general anesthesia, tracheostomy, and reconstructive surgery. Unfortunately, it’s considered “cosmetic” so he would probably be paying out of pocket, even with insurance. Our healthcare system is so bloated and inefficient.
@@evilsharkey8954 I don't think there's a perfect system out there, and there are merits and flaws with literally every one.
As I wrote, I'm Canadian, so costs for things like surgery, regular checkups, and even seeing specialists never even come up.
...there are MAJOR caveats however.
Unless a condition is urgent, even medically necessary procedures can take an utterly insane amount of time to have performed. This is most commonly associated with orthopedic procedures, like hip and knee replacements. Even though individuals can be rendered immobile from the pain, it's rarely considered to be an urgent procedure, so a wait of 1-2 years is pretty much the norm...and that was pre-SARS-CoV-2.
If things are urgent, most get the care they need, and are out of pocket little more than parking fees, and the requisite Timmie's* runs.
It's far from perfect...really far, but I will state that I haven't come across anyone who went bankrupt because of a medical condition.
At least in this case, the outcome was amazing for all involved.
@@eng-eq7xy I’ve never met anyone from a country with single payer healthcare who wished they had a system like the US, not even conservatives. Canada has socialized medicine, which is a step farther than single payer.
@@evilsharkey8954 Actually, Canada is a single payer system, not socialized. Most physicians and hospitals are not employed by, or run by federal or provincial governments, respectively.
In the former, physicians operate private practices, however they bill all their services to the relevant government agencies. The amounts they are allowed to bill are set by the government, but in terms of employment, they are privately employed.
As for hospitals, in most cases, they are mostly operated as independent institutions (incorporated under the Corporations Act), and are not directly owned by the government. Again, their source of funding is largely from the relevant government agencies, but there is a hands off approach when it comes to direct ownership of them.
@@eng-eq7xy the joint replacements are a red herring imo. It not like you wake up one day bone on bone and need a joint replacement. Ever single non traumatic joint replacement, the patient has known for years they needed it and they put it off and put it off until it got so bad they couldn't avoid it anymore. Now after years of procrastinating they cry because they have to wait a bit longer. Boo hoo, maybe quit being cowardly and get it done when it needs done. A lack of forethought on their part doesn't constitute and emergency on everyone elses.
I absolutely love this show, not because of the gore, because of the sheer size of these lumps!

I'm so happy for Roger, but I'm disgusted by those hospitals that turned him away. Shame on them. A lot of people would have just ended it after being turned away, but Roger has an inner strength that kept him going. God bless him.
God bless everyone taking part in this surgery. Especially the patient.
Omg 😳 no words.
It must be wonderful after all these years.
I am so grateful that you shared this video and your compassion for this man. Kudos to Dr Lee and the other surgeons and anesthesiologists helping this man. It's very sad that he was turned away from other hospitals. He was in dire need to be able to breathe again. Just very sad.
Wonderful story and hopeful for the rest of us.
I'm going to stay up all night waiting for this

Talk about life changing! The difference in breathing and eating, as well as just that weight being removed, would be huge! It has to feel so much better and give him more confidence. I'm so happy for this man that he is free from that burden that he has carried for so long. God bless him and the surgeons who did such an amazing job!
I felt so happy for him.. these doctors literally changed his life... well done.. 👏🏻👏🏻❤️
Oh, thank God someone helped him! ❤️ What a big blessing for him to have that thing removed 🙌
Thank God they were able to help him!
It takes a lot of courage and hard work with to think even to do the surgery... surgeons have done a great job
..
Fantastic! Roger is such a handsome man now! Good luck with the rest of your recovery!
So sad it see that guy suffer. 😢 I’m happy he’s finally getting the help he deserves. God bless him.
This is the closest I've come to tears on this channel seeing someone's life improving
Hearing about him getting turned away because of insurance legitimately made me tear up. It's so fucked up how this system works, but I'm so glad he was finally able to find a solution. He looks great
This is brilliant! The work these surgeons do gives life back to the sufferers of awful, disabling, repairable deformities. It is sad to me that beautiful people waste time and money trying to stay young when age is not disfiguring, it simply means you didn't die young. I'm 63 and ok. Not perfect, but I don't want to be. Everything works, so I'm LUCKY!! Thankyou for sharing this extraordinary experience.
Im so glad they were able to help this man. Kudos to everyone involved.
That was AWESOME!!!!!! Congrats to the doctors as well as to the gentleman who had the procedure done!!!!
That was incredible , so happy for him ❤️
I’ll never be ungrateful for my health again. My poor dude.
I’m so glad you did this video! I missed this episode when it aired and I wanted to see how it turned out. That poor man… I can’t believe hospitals turned him down because he didn’t have health care. So much for doctors being in it to help people. I mean there are some that are, but a lot of them just want the money. It’s sad. But I’m so glad Dr. Lee got him help and got his nose back to normal!
Dr pimple popper uploads old videos like this one. You can find it on YT from a while ago.
This wonderful operation completely changed this poor man's life. His life must have been a living hell before. God bless these doctors.
Blessing to this man. Thank you Dr. Lee, and other Drs.
That transformation is INSANE!!!!!! So amazing!
This episode was exceptionally good, he literally looks like a new person ⭐️
Is it weird I love hearing you talk? Lol
I felt so bad for him, I too went many years without insurance, but thank the lord He kept me healthy.
He looks like a new man!! And and all he needs is a little foundation on his nose to match the rest of his skin. What a sweetie.
Thank you doctors!!
They really did a beautiful job on his nose. What a life changer for him
I love seeing more and more medical professionals making videos in support of each other and not just pointing out what they do wrong.
Bless that man's heart. I hope he is doing better now. ♥️🙏
This surgery was a huge success. I'm so happy for him!
Wow! Poor man! I'm so glad they were able to fix his nose! He looks so much better and must definitely feel great! ❤️
This was so emotional for me. He looks fantastic- I hope they did this for free to literally give this man a life he was meant to have. 👍
I love your commentary. It improves on the video. I interned as a surgical tech with a plastics. It was my favorite surgery to do.
Bless him!!! And bless the doctors who cared enough to help him!!!!
