Is this Teleport similiar to Sales People in a Hardware Store or Toy Store? You know the People who seemingly come out of the Shelve behind you to tell you that you cant just buy a Toy Train Station for your Son. No no, you need the Train and the Ticket Machine and that tiny figurine of the Ticket Machine Maintenance Person and the little Ashtray outside of the Station and the Parking lot and the holding thingy for bycicles and you need several platforms and several Wagons for the way earlier mentioned train and so on and so on. They are alway there, out of nowhere and once they are finished with you, you have a packmule full of stuff you didnt intend to buy and they disappeared. Mst likely going through shelves for their next victim. Is it similiar to them?

Yes, it does happen something like this - even for anesthesia on occasion. Walk by the E.R. door at the exact wrong time and the E.R. doc might pull you into a trauma that just showed up needing to be intubated. So you intubate the patient and set up the ventilator with the respiratory therapist. You look around and the E.R. doc is nowhere to be seen and this fresh trauma is kind of your responsibility until that E.R. doc returns.
You have a flair for horror-comedy 😂😳 Your scary ED videos are among my favourites. The sharp editing and eerily empty but authentic location added to the creepiness. 10/10!
to build rapport: don't ask the surgeons about their families, FEED THEM. I know almost nothing about my surgical consultants' personal lives but I can list all their allergens, favorite cuisines, and top 3 favorite cookie flavors. After a full day in the OR with no bathroom break, no sitting down, no food, and no thank yous, they can come down to cookies/their first meal in 24 hours. Takes some effort but no one runs away from me anymore.
I need a part two! The sequel, or even a prequel. What got surgery down there in the first place, what happens next, can he summon Jonathan to help him escape? Don’t leave us hanging on this 😩
@@iesakhanji1995 the surgeon desperately calls the ophthalmologist to summon a Jonathan to save him. The ophthalmologist utters these words and dooms the surgeon to his fate: “come and see me in clinic on Monday.” 😱😂
I laugh every time I see the bike helmet cuz I know a ER NP that rides into work same time as I get there. I NEVER stay and document in the ER. Always examine my patient in the ER and get up to the ICU (home base) ASAP!
this sketch helped me realize just how big a deal it is to consult and how much risk they are assuming for deciding the fate of a patient based on a 2 minute phone call
This is not a joke. I was hospitalized away from home for a few weeks. I was desperate to get out and go home and no one wanted to take the responsibility of letting me get in a plane. So finally they agreed to release me to rehab where I did not get O2 or food and our bathroom wasn’t entirely accessible. My roommate was up all night on the phone crying and screaming about who knows what. It was truly miserable. The next day the social director wanted me to go to breakfast with everyone else and I kept refusing because I was waiting for the doctor. I broke away and fortunately the doctor showed up. He looked at me, looked at my chart and said “Why are you here?” I thought because they’re dumping the responsibility of releasing me on you! Flew home just fine. So relieved to be back in my own bed!
“You chart here...you WORK here” I’ve seen this happen so many times (I’ve also been complicit). Never stick around ED unless you want people you’ve never met to request multiple favours for patients you’ve never seen or heard of. Doesn’t matter if you’ve been there for 10 minutes or 10 years.

I used to work ED as a medic in the military. I've seen countless Drs get pulled into something crazy at the last minute each and every time. And the fact that the ER doc looks like the cycling terminator just adds to the fun. Brilliant!

@@elizabethmayberry3414 yeah I mean I think we should be careful not to go too crazy with it in terms of making sure our practice remains evidence-based and that it doesn't just become a blunt instrument mindlessly applied to every patient, but certainly an indispensable tool for the discerning emergency practitioner
I am not a physician so I can’t really relate in this level, but whenever I cover the hospital for physical therapy services we get called in like this. The ER physician calls it a “road test” to see if the patient should be admitted or not. We ask them, are you asking me if they need to be admitted or are you wanting me to assess their mobility needs??? They always say, “mobility needs”. Then after you are done working with the patient they ask, “so what do you think? They good to go home or do they need to be admitted?” We always have to say it’s not our call to make, you are the ER physician. Seems like it’s always a super easy answer too, like someone who is 85 years old with bilateral lower extremity fractures who lives alone and is non weight bearing on one leg. I’m not even exaggerating this one. They wanted me to turn around on my way home to come in to the ER and assess this patient.
Awesome, that's exactly how it goes... you got this one right... again. You, Dr. GF are so exasperatedly good at pointing out all the clichés. Love it. Regards. Anesthesia
I got a new job in a hospital and I have a view to the trauma emergency department staff door. The first day I saw a fit man in full bicycle attire outside. He must work there :D
As someone who spent 3 weeks hospitalized earlier this year, the humor is not lost on me. I understood the culture and hierarchy after my first week in ICU. I thought education was bad. 😂
Thx for triggering my long-dormant PTSD. This phenomenon was the bane of my internship year. Go to the ER to consult on a patient, instantly it was “hey as long as you’re here, could you take a quick peek at room six?” Took me all of a week to figure out the answer to that was always “No.”
Wow, I ACTUALLY Laughed Out Loud, like for REAL! The wheezing variety, no less! You either managed to cure my burnout or maybe I'm just converting all my suppressed pain into laughter..
lol… I have to give it to my doc.. the ER was slammed and after coming down to admit me he stuck around to get people out. The ER docs say they always love it when they have to call to admit one of his patients bc he stays and gets it done I also had a partial amputation of my big toe during a hurricane .., and they were basically loading me up with pain meds waiting on a surgeon bc it was more than the ER docs could sew up… so my mom called her foot doctor who is a surgeon as well and he drive through the hurricane aftermath to the hospital to take care of me. He then stayed and helped the ER until roads were cleared and safe for staff to get there. Sometimes you find exceptional doctors who are exceptional human beings
Can we make this a series?? As a nurse, you got me right in the feels!! Aside from that, I'm deeply emotionally invested in this!! Am I alone in this idea??
I've been watching him for a long time. Dr. G. is blast! I set my notifications bell to all. That way I see everything when it's posted. Did you know that he (I don't remember his name) had 2 bouts of testicular cancer in his 20s. A few years ago he also had a heart attack. His wife is a doctor too. She had to give him CPR for 10 minutes before the ambulance arrived.
this is very spot on. never do more in the ER as a consultant than seeing a pt that you've already been called to see. you WILL get asked to do something else
One of my favourite videos of yours so far. I truly appreciate the time and effort you take to make these golden nuggets of masterpiece perfection. Keep on being you, it’s bloody marvellous!
The true heroes are those ED docs thoughtful enough to get the consults in early in your shift and not bombard you at 3am. They also do a full work up before calling and even have the kindness to not curbside you when they see how stressed you are in the ED w a trauma and other consults. The throughput time can wait 10 minutes so you aren’t killing the poor surgeon trying to not have a terrible night.
Next ER skit should include the specialist laying a set of plastic eyes 👀 on the patient!! ☺️ thanks for another hilariously accurate ED skit. -from a former Jonathan in the ER, current anesthesia tech studying for mcat
SO DAMN ACCURATE! Though I'd like to give a shout out to the wonderful select few ER docs at my center. If they saw me stressed and busy with consults, they'd offer a cup of coffee and hold off new consults till I'm ready to receive them or done with my shift (so they're the next on call's problem XD). Love you guys to bits
Omg this might be the most epic video ( after the covid critical care avengers team ) you have ever prepared Imagine whilst shooting this video , by mere coincidence ceo of the Hospital comes by from the corridor introducing the facility to the government authorities; and here is our emergency ward , triage section, resuscitation room… all of a sudden a strange man with casket and sunglasses appear running around the corner holding a cam , pure gold 🤣
Believe it or not, I can relate to this as a former retail worker. Get done with a shift in shipping & receiving in the back and either A: punch out at the nearby register around the corner so you can walk right out the door OR B: go all the way across the store, up a floor and punch out in the secluded bank of registers upstairs intended for that purpose. We picked option A and hoped a customer did not show up and we would need to apologize because we weren't register trained.
As an ICU Outreach registrar, I'm very familiar with the "friendly" ED doc asking me to "lay eyes" on a patient. They wouldn't have referred to ICU but "well, since you're already here..."

4 (optional). Climb out of the nearest window and scale down the building.

I always interpreted the helmet as him being really careful and paranoid about head injuries because of his job. I might be wrong though.

I got a new job in a hospital and I have a view to the trauma emergency department staff door. The first day I saw a fit man in full bicycle attire outside. He must work there :D
As someone who spent 3 weeks hospitalized earlier this year, the humor is not lost on me. I understood the culture and hierarchy after my first week in ICU. I thought education was bad. 😂
I recently watched the 4th of July call video and it's good to know that surgery fully embraced his new role as trauma surgery
Thx for triggering my long-dormant PTSD. This phenomenon was the bane of my internship year. Go to the ER to consult on a patient, instantly it was “hey as long as you’re here, could you take a quick peek at room six?” Took me all of a week to figure out the answer to that was always “No.”
😂😂 I freaking love you man. On any bad day...you are fresh air in a stinking world.
Like a fly caught in a web! I literally hollered and guffawed at the Diet Coke close-up.😂
I lost it when he had the Diet Coke! As the child of an emergency nurse I can tell you we practically budget for the stuff!😂
I'm not a doctor, and some of this is over my head, but I love Dr G! so delightful and clever! Thank you. 💙
Wow, I ACTUALLY Laughed Out Loud, like for REAL! The wheezing variety, no less!
You either managed to cure my burnout or maybe I'm just converting all my suppressed pain into laughter..
Perhaps your most clever video that I've seen ao far. The horror genre direction was perfect.
Hahahaha I LOVE IT! As a doctor working in A&E, I imagine that's how surgeons think of us🤣🤣🤣 and its true, they avoid small talk at all costs🤣🤣🤣
lol… I have to give it to my doc.. the ER was slammed and after coming down to admit me he stuck around to get people out. The ER docs say they always love it when they have to call to admit one of his patients bc he stays and gets it done
I also had a partial amputation of my big toe during a hurricane .., and they were basically loading me up with pain meds waiting on a surgeon bc it was more than the ER docs could sew up… so my mom called her foot doctor who is a surgeon as well and he drive through the hurricane aftermath to the hospital to take care of me. He then stayed and helped the ER until roads were cleared and safe for staff to get there. Sometimes you find exceptional doctors who are exceptional human beings
Can we make this a series?? As a nurse, you got me right in the feels!! Aside from that, I'm deeply emotionally invested in this!! Am I alone in this idea??
I've been watching him for a long time. Dr. G. is blast! I set my notifications bell to all. That way I see everything when it's posted. Did you know that he (I don't remember his name) had 2 bouts of testicular cancer in his 20s. A few years ago he also had a heart attack. His wife is a doctor too. She had to give him CPR for 10 minutes before the ambulance arrived.
I would love weekly 30 minute episodes in one of the three networks - xBC. ( as a retired rn I can’t afford fancy streaming packages.)
Oh, an exceptionally brilliant one in a cast of many brilliant ones
This was hilarious. It's either a diet soda or a diet energy drink lol. And that unicorn helmet, so cute.
lol gotta love the PEM doc 😂
Part of my medical comedy needs have been fulfilled. I feel much better now. Thanks Doc!
😂 'but we established rapport' 😄 Almost like working in IT, if programmers actually bothered with such formalities.
"but we spoke briefly about the action figures on your desk and how people keep moving them into inappropriate positions which we both find hilarious"
I am now fully invested in this storyline lol. Great job in the tension buildup and creepiness!
This is a famous urban legend in hospitals.
My moms been a RN for 28 years and she loves your videos. Keep it up man.
Love it.
As a med student that loved every moment of my ER rotation this is spot on. Hell, i was drinking a diet coke just a few minutes ago...
this is very spot on. never do more in the ER as a consultant than seeing a pt that you've already been called to see. you WILL get asked to do something else
ER, the twilight zone for the specialties….😂😂
The Diet Coke was the scariest bit
Lmaoo
I've been on call all weekend... This is what has been happening to me.
And I am literally surgery 😩😭😭😭
"Welcome to the team trauma surgery"
"But I am in cardiovascular surgery"
"Not anymore you aren't"
One of my favourite videos of yours so far.
I truly appreciate the time and effort you take to make these golden nuggets of masterpiece perfection.
Keep on being you, it’s bloody marvellous!
And just like that…. A new character is formed… “Trauma Surgery”- I love it!
Adding a thriller element to your skits... very nice indeed! :-)
My gravestone will have the phrase "Cause of death: Rampant burnout and complete lack of respect"
THIS WAS AN INCREDIBLE SKETCH!! Great job, man, this felt like a comedy indie short film!
This channel and scrubs are the only two that really capture the essence of medicine. Bravo
I get the feeling of anxiety and doom through the screen
"Come play with us, for ever, and ever .. "
You really managed to strike a great balance between hilarious and chilling, doc
Dr. Anderson, welcome back. We -missed- you
I feel like this is one of Dr. Glaucomflecken's nightmares.
The true heroes are those ED docs thoughtful enough to get the consults in early in your shift and not bombard you at 3am. They also do a full work up before calling and even have the kindness to not curbside you when they see how stressed you are in the ED w a trauma and other consults. The throughput time can wait 10 minutes so you aren’t killing the poor surgeon trying to not have a terrible night.
Oh yes! All of that leading to a bottle of Coke at the end! 😂🎉
Gotta be diet tho 😂
My gawd!!! 🤣🤣🤣
You are on another level; truly a gift!!
Thank you for making me smile today 😊
Next ER skit should include the specialist laying a set of plastic eyes 👀 on the patient!! ☺️ thanks for another hilariously accurate ED skit. -from a former Jonathan in the ER, current anesthesia tech studying for mcat
Man this was one of your best videos yet. Emergency as horror is just 👌
SO DAMN ACCURATE! Though I'd like to give a shout out to the wonderful select few ER docs at my center. If they saw me stressed and busy with consults, they'd offer a cup of coffee and hold off new consults till I'm ready to receive them or done with my shift (so they're the next on call's problem XD). Love you guys to bits
Those are the true heroes of the ED physicians. I have 1 or 2 at my hospital. They are the best.
The Diet Coke. I can’t even.😮😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
All i have to say is. This is a masterpiece 🤣
I’m a nurse and former OR tech. You guys are nuts! My favorite channel. I laugh so much because it’s so true!
Need more of your genius. I love how ER assimilates people into more ER xD
The camera work alone on this one was astounding- well done!!🥇
Omg this might be the most epic video ( after the covid critical care avengers team ) you have ever prepared
Imagine whilst shooting this video , by mere coincidence ceo of the Hospital comes by from the corridor introducing the facility to the government authorities; and here is our emergency ward , triage section, resuscitation room… all of a sudden a strange man with casket and sunglasses appear running around the corner holding a cam , pure gold 🤣
Believe it or not, I can relate to this as a former retail worker. Get done with a shift in shipping & receiving in the back and either A: punch out at the nearby register around the corner so you can walk right out the door OR B: go all the way across the store, up a floor and punch out in the secluded bank of registers upstairs intended for that purpose. We picked option A and hoped a customer did not show up and we would need to apologize because we weren't register trained.
I love this. My doctor is a retired er doc and is a legend in a bike helmet. 😆
'All your surgeons are belong to us', LOL. What a great twist of fate, with the transformative Diet Coke bottle! Superb comedy! Keep 'em coming!
I expected comedy, got horror instead
"You chart here, you work here."
As an ICU Outreach registrar, I'm very familiar with the "friendly" ED doc asking me to "lay eyes" on a patient. They wouldn't have referred to ICU but "well, since you're already here..."
This is so accurate - and I work in Australia! Keep them coming Dr G! All of your videos are brilliant.
