Little bit of background information on House M.D.: During first season their budget was so limited that they couldn`t afford more actors and extras. That`s why the Doctors are doing all the tests, they couldn`t hire more people to convincingly act as Nurses. They were also filming on a floor of an active hospital, so they couldn`t just go everywhere, and sometimes had to film at night to have access to rooms that were used during the day. A lot of this changed during the later seasons, but the thing with House`s team doing all the tests etc. just kinda stuck around so we could get more time with the characters. In comparison Scrubs was filmed in an abandoned Hospital, so they could do whatever the hell they wanted.
You are correct. I feel that they should have more knowledge of a show as a whole, before breaking down to many parts that are not completely medical portions of the show.
STRAIGHT FAX... he’s in for an incredible ride. Makes me jealous to think of someone having that much quality entertainment ahead. Absolutely one of the best TV shows EVER.
Two things to keep in mind when watching House MD: 1) It's just Sherlock Holmes in a medical setting 2) They are research team, who solve rare and non typical cases Alas, those are the things you don't get from watching the pilot.
House may not be as medically accurate as some other shows, but it’s easily one of the best shows out there. The drama, the characters, the humour. It’s perfect.
I agree! such a good show. I feel bad for doctors who probably would pull their hair out trying to watch it and have to miss out on the amazing plot and humor

@@CryptP Yeah but I just talked to my grandma not that long ago and apparently He has daddy issues which explains a lot about his behavior. He's just another poor sap who has trauma from his childhood and unfortunately He chooses to take it out on other people Which is weird because usually people who are abused don't go on to abuse other people like for example their own children because even though unfortunately it's quite easy to take out your pain and hurt on other people, most of the time you're far more likely to find an abuse victim who doesn't go on to continue the toxic cycle that was enforced upon them But unfortunately House is not one of those people and he is projecting his issues on to everybody else and that makes him come off as a jerk

The vast majority of chronic pain patients are living with drug *dependency*, not drug addiction. Hope you never learn the difference. I'd rather deal with addiction than spend the rest of my life with an agonizing broken body that can't be treated with anything but opioids.
While the show is littered with inaccuracies and malpractice (years of listening to my mother calling out medical dramas for inaccuracies tells me most have a lot), it is very much worth watching because it is a mystery show where you try to figure out what is wrong with the patient before House. It can be described as in the Sherlock Holmes genre, and for good reason.
I totally understand someone saying House's "doings" are extremely unrealistic for a doctor, but i can totally get along whit it as the show clearly states that how extreme House is even in the Series and how Lisa being basically the only person accepting him and his "doings" as a doctor.

I stopped watching this series for a while now, but with this doctor I feel like I'm learning... Sometimes I think of being a nurse but can't manage the blood and sore. Thumbs up doc. @doctormike
@Bas Wenmakers I agree on that one, it's not supposed to be a super accurate medical show. It's a show about a doctor that has a crazy ego, addicted to vicodin and can solve any super rare case, also has an affair with the boss in one season. It's fun to watch and you can learn some new things about the human body and the extremes it can go to.
Something with House that you come to understand is that he is obsessed with “solving the puzzle.” He doesn’t care so much for the patient’s well being as much as he does figuring out what’s wrong with them and fixing it. He needs to win.
I think he said somewhere, how it feels weird to watch medical series because of the various inconsistencies from the reality. He does watch tv series but not medical genre. I think he said this in an old video. Not sure.
@@master52227 I get it, I would be that way 100% too....I was listening to an ex navy seal on the joe Rogan podcast and he is the same exact way with war/military movies.
@@ala2121 I am sure it is the same with any professional. I work in IT and so far haven't found a single film/tv show that understands how computers work. I am sure lawyers feel the same when they watch a crime drama etc..
I have a friend who is a medical doctor. She never watches any of these medical dramas. She says they are so ridiculous and inaccurate that she can't stand them. She says she prefers forensic crime dramas because they are more accurate than whatever garbage medical dramas show 😅
You make a great Wilson/Cuddy friend to House 😂 Also the when "we wouldn't normally do that" is the point of the series. It hyper focuses on how doctors follow routine which could end up missing important symptoms in patients. In a later episode an ER doctor almost sends home a patient with what they assumed was a schizophrenia and alcoholism. She ended up having a complex case that could've killed her had House not looked into it. Now of course this dramatizes a lot, but the situations in the show are mostly based off actual complex cases where people have nearly died because of misdiagnosis or oversight, sometimes even negligence. House m.d is pretty much an insult toward doctors who overlook more in-depth cases because they either think they know it all or are lazy/tired. I've actually encountered doctors who overlooked my symptoms and I nearly died until i met a doctor that took my case seriously. But of course it's a show about a miserable sarcastic doctor who does whatever he wants to get what the answers he needs.
agreed, if he watches the whole series and comments on it, not even the whole thing just does some episodes on it like season by season based i would sub for those.
A few points in this episode about the MRI, at least in Australia, her head wasn't packed in anywhere near tightly enough. They give you ear plugs and pack you into the head cage so you really can't move to much. They also give you a distress buzzer in your hand to squeeze if they need to pull you out. There's also no way to speak to anyone during the scan 😅
I'm from USA. I've had countless mri and cat scans. They usually talked to me throughout the test to ensure I was okay... Why so many? I've also had a lot of x-rays done too. I was in a freak car accident when I was 16. Shattered my face and had a stroke. It's now 19 years later. I'm still partially paralyzed on my left side and there's parts of my back I can't feel either.
In Ireland here they give you headphones to listen to music! Unfortunately I had to suffer through Justin Bieber 😂😂 also no way to talk to anyone through the scan haha
The dissection of House's misanthropy reminds me of “Explaining a joke is like dissecting a frog. You understand it better but the frog dies in the process.” ― E.B. White
The thing they don't explicitly spell out at the beginning of the show is that they've tried almost everything a common doctor would think of before pitching the case to House, which is a part of why the team jumps straight to 'somebody screwed up some lab work'. While it seems like an unlikely scenario, it's actually the simplest explanation at the time. Over time the little mistakes are combed out as they presumably have a larger team to help with the show.
@@seanyang5186 With all the terrible medical procedures and decisions that House has made throughout the series, I'm pretty sure Mike would resent him too - Or at least have a very strong distaste 😂
Well he didn’t know it was an allergic reaction until it showed her throat close up, which is pretty much common knowledge that when a throat swells shut It’s usually an allergic reaction.
I once asked my doctor if he ever watched House M.D. He told me the only tv shows he ever saw were the ones his patients had on in their hospital rooms. This is a doctor, an internist, who would call me at 9:00 pm to see how I was doing on a new medication. I have never met anyone else so devoted to their calling.
I always enjoy scenes where there are four or five doctors standing together somewhere. I've spent a lot of time in hospitals over the years and spotting just one doctor is like a Bigfoot sighting.
When I was 12, I was in the hospital for 9 weeks. It was a military teaching hospital. (Oakknoll Naval Hospital) Every day I had about 7 doctors doing rounds at my bedside. It wasn't till I got older that I realized how rare it was.
I have an incredibly rare orthopedic condition and my care was through the Air Force at a teaching hospital. It feels weird to this day (thirty plus years later) to see a doctor without a crowd of students/residents/etc. I hope they’re all out there having learned something from this zebra.
It's not sadistic. We care about our patients deeply, but so much time is spent studying this stuff that it's hard not to get excited when we are able to identify something.
There's a really interesting episode of House where he's lecturing med students and reviewing a case with 3 different approaches to medicine - Three Stories (Season 1 episode 21). Would love to see you compare and contrast the patient intakes in this episode. Also...JERSEY REPRESENT!
So interesting to see a doctor’s perspective on this show, and I love watching the cogs whirring as you think about possible diagnoses. I like season 3 episode 2, would be interesting to see your take on that. Also I suggested it on your other video but it would be cool for you to watch an English show like Casualty or Holby City, or even the documentary 24 hours in A&E, to see how it differs from your practise.
13:45 Doc didn't get the basic premise: House ONLY treats "interesting" cases, the ones other docs can't solve. You should see the series, it's actually quite cool. 😁
I wish I had him as a doctor. Not because he’s attractive (though that too), but because he loves his job so much that I think he would really try hard to figure out what’s wrong
Would you? By looking on extream cases that House is getting? He is like black hole sucking in most rare conditions ever. Except lupus, it's never lupus :P
I had an allergic reaction to MRI contrast a few years ago. I have NEVER seen so many people arrive in the imaging room so quickly! There was no one then suddenly there was like 15 people. And they immediately sent me down to the ER
@@jtalistair6725 Now that you mention it, pretty much yeah. Never really thought about it. But instead of being addicted to heroine House is addicted to Vicodin though. And he doesn't play a violin or smoke a pipe :)
@@jtalistair6725 Oh did he? Don't really remember those details. I watched it when it originally aired over here in 2004 and only watched till the 3rd season season stop. Never got around to picking it back up when the new seasons got released. Also back then I hadn't read the Sherlock Holmes original stories yet. So I didn't know details about Holmes's peculiarities either and wouldn't have recognized them in the series(Didn't know Holmes was an addict back then for instance).
There are different ways that medical professionals and doctors can determine competency in their patients, both in neurodivergent and neurotypical people. Doctors assess: A patient’s ability to receive, process, and understand the relevant information. Their ability to express choice/ consent. Their ability to recognize the implications of their choice. And the ability to rationallly process the information.
Unfortunately, neurodivergent people no matter the specific condition are often assumed to be incompetent. As soon as someone diagnosed with a mental issue tried to refuse treatment they'd probably be taken to court. Thankfully I've never been seriously injured because I'm autistic and might not be allowed to make my own medical decisions if the doctors sucked enough.
Season 7; Episode 22 This episode is insane. House tries trial medication that was being tested on rats. Starts gaining leg function and going on runs eliminating all pain in leg and stops the Vicodin, but then it all goes wrong. MUST WATCH.
Exactly! It would be much more interesting to me to see real doctors critiqued. I'm no doctor, but I have a Master of Medicine degree so my head's in the game.
I subscribed when he said he didn't know those statements about tapeworms and that was out of his expertise. That's how I know he wasn't bullshitting what he said earlier in the video just to sound smart. Thanks for being humble!
Omg, you are so concerned about her when she stopped breathing! You are an awesome doctor and I love your channel! I wish there were more doctors who actually cared about patients as much as you do about a fictional one 😉🤩😘
House MD is still, till this day my fav medical show. Good to see it with you eyes as a professional. And House as character - so so delightfully fun!! 😀
I believe the tv show, “The Resident”, would be a good medical show for a reaction video. Especially something like Season 1, Episode 4 and the issue within the ER involving triage. As someone in the military, we are taught basic triage information but I would be curious to know about real-world civilian ER triage protocol.
jerantology jerantology yep! But the reason he wasn’t properly identified was because the new nurse didn’t know how to handle high-paced triage. He wasn’t deemed serious enough so he was set to the side for “more important” patients.
*_This is litterally giving me more passion for medicine. The fact that doctors like you exist, that are intelligent in medicine and also entertaining! Keep it up!_*
Watch "House's Head" and "Wilson's Heart" from House M.D. Season 4 episodes 15 and 16 respectively. The episodes are some of the best from the entire series.
I really love the fact that your teaching as you review these because I'm currently a nursing student and I'm being educated while you go over these. Sonce starting school ive started noticing the little details and inaccuracies in the shows. *new favorite channel*
I love how this show evolves over the seasons. It shows the doctor's vulnerabilities explicitly, both personal and professional. Highly entertaining. I don't really know how medically accurate it is as I am only familiar with some of the medical language, but I still find it delightful to watch.
Oooh, if he doesn't like what House did in the pilot, he's not gonna like the worse shit he did. Broke a patient's finger on purpose, shot a corpse in the hospital's mortuary (yes, with an actual gun, not a needle), etc.
Ive noticed doctors dont test for lupus right away. I remember when my dad was sick it took the doctors a few days till someone suggested doing a test for lupus lol
it took my best friend sister 7 years to have a positive diagnosis for lupus. Sad but it was lupus the entire time! She is still here praise the Lord but a teacher told her years earlier she in fact has lupus and he was right!

Dr. Mike reviews Dr. Strange: "This is a little unrealistic, doctors can't bend time with the mystical Eye of Agamotto"
LOL this is too good
Yeah...they need a Tardis for that
😂😂
Too good

Don't watch the two-part episode "Euphoria" unless you want nightmares!
...feeling on top of the world was the first symptom of a torturous disease!
😅
Wxactly.
I think if you did a review of every episode of house. I would watch definitely watch every one of your reviews
Basel H YOU ARE FUCKING SMART
definitely support your coment
Hell yea !
Just do it
Yes! Every episode is worth watching..
"you can say you don't know" and here we see undeniable proof that this is the first episode dr mike has seen
I love the fact that he photoshopped himself into the Dr House casting at the end. Lol. This guy is legendary.
ikrrrrr
I was going though the comments to see if anyone else noticed that
His editor did, not him.
May be implying He could replace chase with his looks😂
1,000th like lol, sorry I know it’s useless but I’m proud for once
I love how he's never seen any of these shows before. Like, he was too busy studying to binge watch TV. Love it.
I think he said somewhere, how it feels weird to watch medical series because of the various inconsistencies from the reality. He does watch tv series but not medical genre. I think he said this in an old video. Not sure.
@@master52227 I get it, I would be that way 100% too....I was listening to an ex navy seal on the joe Rogan podcast and he is the same exact way with war/military movies.
I guess I shouldn't put "ex" on there...all most military say "once a ____, always a _____"
@@ala2121
I am sure it is the same with any professional. I work in IT and so far haven't found a single film/tv show that understands how computers work. I am sure lawyers feel the same when they watch a crime drama etc..
I have a friend who is a medical doctor. She never watches any of these medical dramas. She says they are so ridiculous and inaccurate that she can't stand them. She says she prefers forensic crime dramas because they are more accurate than whatever garbage medical dramas show 😅
I love how worried he gets when something happens to the patients.
You make a great Wilson/Cuddy friend to House 😂
Also the when "we wouldn't normally do that" is the point of the series. It hyper focuses on how doctors follow routine which could end up missing important symptoms in patients.
In a later episode an ER doctor almost sends home a patient with what they assumed was a schizophrenia and alcoholism. She ended up having a complex case that could've killed her had House not looked into it.
Now of course this dramatizes a lot, but the situations in the show are mostly based off actual complex cases where people have nearly died because of misdiagnosis or oversight, sometimes even negligence.
House m.d is pretty much an insult toward doctors who overlook more in-depth cases because they either think they know it all or are lazy/tired.
I've actually encountered doctors who overlooked my symptoms and I nearly died until i met a doctor that took my case seriously.
But of course it's a show about a miserable sarcastic doctor who does whatever he wants to get what the answers he needs.
He looks genuinely concerned , and when he says suggestions , it’s like he’s legitimately trying to help, so sweet , you’re probably a great doctor
Oofff course he has to be a great doctor too!!!!!!
Mike : That was cold.
Me : Oh Mike, even the North Pole has nothing on House.
Expacily since climate change🤣
My favorite is
House: "There's a reason it's called a WHITE board"
Foreman: "Hand me the BLACK marker"
I was dead
That episode was fantastic too, I think it was called frozen with the girl they had to diagnose over the computer
Online Agbah, I'm pretty sure it was tge South Pole, actually
😆
This needs to be a series. A real doctor watching house. I think I’m subbing.
agreed, if he watches the whole series and comments on it, not even the whole thing just does some episodes on it like season by season based i would sub for those.
Please, make this a thing!
I agree, something like rifftrax; a commentary you can put over the show.
James Douds he probably is busy, right? But please make it! I'll subscribe in advance for more house episodes. Any.
I bet Vice would pick up that show.
A few points in this episode about the MRI, at least in Australia, her head wasn't packed in anywhere near tightly enough. They give you ear plugs and pack you into the head cage so you really can't move to much. They also give you a distress buzzer in your hand to squeeze if they need to pull you out. There's also no way to speak to anyone during the scan 😅
Can u please tell me the episode
I've had a few MRI's and they talk to me and I can talk back during the scan. I'm in Australia too.
I'm from USA. I've had countless mri and cat scans. They usually talked to me throughout the test to ensure I was okay...
Why so many?
I've also had a lot of x-rays done too. I was in a freak car accident when I was 16. Shattered my face and had a stroke. It's now 19 years later. I'm still partially paralyzed on my left side and there's parts of my back I can't feel either.
In Ireland here they give you headphones to listen to music! Unfortunately I had to suffer through Justin Bieber 😂😂 also no way to talk to anyone through the scan haha
The dissection of House's misanthropy reminds me of “Explaining a joke is like dissecting a frog. You understand it better but the frog dies in the process.” ― E.B. White
It's a shame this comment doesn't have as many likes
I have to save this quote-
If it dies in the process, meaning it wasn't dead already, technically that's not dissection, it's vivisection.

@@Fit4C you’re ignorant to think that your religion out of the millions out there, is the righteous & correct one….
Doctor Mike, I'm guessing you've never seen House using a coma patient as a cup holder whilst watching a favourite TV show?
Hahahah whilst playing games stolen from the cancer ward no less! This kid needs to strap in. Its only the first episode.
Or when he gives coma patient a migraine
He's gonna s**t his pants when Kutner uses the defibrillator.
@@clevelandbci9562 yeah thats my favorite scene in the entire show 😆
or test a migraine drug on a coma patient
His tie matches the throw pillow behind him
and the painting.
I have never seen so much copying
The color is called gay.
@@evanhall7030 hella
I don’t usually throw pillows all over the place
"Are WE having a stroke?"
Spoken like a true doctor. 😁
The thing they don't explicitly spell out at the beginning of the show is that they've tried almost everything a common doctor would think of before pitching the case to House, which is a part of why the team jumps straight to 'somebody screwed up some lab work'. While it seems like an unlikely scenario, it's actually the simplest explanation at the time.
Over time the little mistakes are combed out as they presumably have a larger team to help with the show.
They did spell it out in this episode though.
i was looking from someone to explain this to him
Yeahsss
Hey Dr. Mike, please review S02E02 ( Autopsy ) of House M.D. It is one of the highest rated episode of the series.
Zack ryder it was amaziiiing
First one came to my mind when he asked for advice👍🏻
Zack ryder YEA I JUST SAID THE SAME THING it would be really interesting to see
is that the one where the little girl has cancer? because if that's the one it is my FAVORITE!
Decaytale AU yea it is
I wonder how Hugh Laurie managed to get rid of his English accent as dr. House. He's a very underrated actor.
Not only that, he did a fake British accent in one episode.
On top of that, he has to say the medical terminology with an American accent. Example: We say, "AntibYotics" The British say, "AntibEEotics."
Jessica Faulkner I have never said it like that
@@jessicafaulkner4946 no we don't.
@@shamelessmoose He's British. He used a "fake accent"? How so?
Hey Doctor Mike, I am a retired ICU, Cath and EP lab RN. Love your analysis! Continue CPR!
i love it when he genuinely looks concerned and invested in the patients in the show and gives out legitimate medical instructions
*that's how the doc mafia works*
You noticed how House and Mike are like, the exact opposites? One has a personality of a golden retriever, the other is a Batman villain.
Or just batman
house would resent mike in real life LOL
@@seanyang5186 With all the terrible medical procedures and decisions that House has made throughout the series, I'm pretty sure Mike would resent him too - Or at least have a very strong distaste 😂
@@seanyang5186 house would so resent him for being too
Happy
Kind to patients
Believing patients too much
So mr peanut butter and bojack
"EPIPEN INTO THE UPPER THIGH , QUICK" hahaha, i'd love watching these kind of series with a doctor
Ikr
i know right? also he is very likeable👀😂👅
you girls are thirsty :D
Please keep doing these house videos, they're really informative!!!
I absolutely love how he IMMEDIATELY knew she was having an allergic reaction and was genuinely concerned for her.
If you've seen it in real life you'd be concerned too
Well he didn’t know it was an allergic reaction until it showed her throat close up, which is pretty much common knowledge that when a throat swells shut It’s usually an allergic reaction.
I love the part where he's watching her react to the contrast and says "Ohhhhh noooooo..... get her an epipen". He's so into it.
Fun fact: house wears his white coat less than ten times on the entire show.
@Evita Holli and i like it that way
Dr Foreman wears House's coat more than House lol
@Evita Holli House was generally less serialized and more "monster (or disease in this case) of the week" which gets pretty formulaic.
Double fun fact: he is an allegory to Sherlock Holmes! I guess that’s why I love the man.
@Evita Holli True.... an it's amazing how this went on for several seasons.
I once asked my doctor if he ever watched House M.D. He told me the only tv shows he ever saw were the ones his patients had on in their hospital rooms. This is a doctor, an internist, who would call me at 9:00 pm to see how I was doing on a new medication. I have never met anyone else so devoted to their calling.
You should react to House season 7 episode 22 where Dr. House performs surgery on himself
Katie O'Donnell yesss 👐
Yes definitelt
DID YOU JUST MENTION RESPIRATORY THERAPISTS IN 08:14?? im touched no one ever mentions us
Rakan Gashgari TRUUUUE
Well ty I had a great one when I was treated for a hole in my heart at 2 months old
I've got your back 🙌
I hope all your patients have been okay as of late.
Go respiratory therapists! And go to all people in the medical field!
I always enjoy scenes where there are four or five doctors standing together somewhere. I've spent a lot of time in hospitals over the years and spotting just one doctor is like a Bigfoot sighting.
Be glad you never got all of them surrounding you like in the show cause THAT would freak me out.
When I was 12, I was in the hospital for 9 weeks. It was a military teaching hospital. (Oakknoll Naval Hospital) Every day I had about 7 doctors doing rounds at my bedside. It wasn't till I got older that I realized how rare it was.
This made me laugh bc it's true
I have an incredibly rare orthopedic condition and my care was through the Air Force at a teaching hospital. It feels weird to this day (thirty plus years later) to see a doctor without a crowd of students/residents/etc. I hope they’re all out there having learned something from this zebra.
Totally late but the way Dr.Mike's tie matches the couch pillow is SOOOOO pleasing I can't even right now
And his shirt with his eyes hnngggggh
DOC ALMOST AT 1 MILLION!! That’s proof that your content is absolutely amazing.
the fact he looked so excited when seeing the women have a seizure shows how much he love medicine
Tiara think about this sentence for a bit and realize how sadistic this sounds.
Maybe he just love seizure
also think about it for a bit, and realize that this is a TV show...and you are very self righteous.
So true! I'm in nursing school, and we geek out over diseases and illnesses - must remember not to do that in front of patients.
It's not sadistic. We care about our patients deeply, but so much time is spent studying this stuff that it's hard not to get excited when we are able to identify something.
I just love how in the end he photoshopped himself with the House MD crew 😂
FoopyBoop 😂😂 LOL I didn't even notice, had to go back and check!
And I love that it was Chase he replaced himself with!
He did it in Grey's too
It looks so realistic too 😂
LyingGamer and the Good Doctor
Great review! Please do more episodes of House MD, this show is a gold mine for such stuff. There is one with alien abduction visions.
“He’s stealing the Vicodin for himself.” Now he’s catching on.
There's a really interesting episode of House where he's lecturing med students and reviewing a case with 3 different approaches to medicine - Three Stories (Season 1 episode 21).
Would love to see you compare and contrast the patient intakes in this episode.
Also...JERSEY REPRESENT!
Melik565 I would love to see the reaction and the medical approach to tree stories, since it has so much importance in the actual series
So interesting to see a doctor’s perspective on this show, and I love watching the cogs whirring as you think about possible diagnoses. I like season 3 episode 2, would be interesting to see your take on that. Also I suggested it on your other video but it would be cool for you to watch an English show like Casualty or Holby City, or even the documentary 24 hours in A&E, to see how it differs from your practise.
Yes definitely a UK Show Dr.Mike!
Casualty is nice because unlike things like Grey's Anatomy, it does put more focus on the nurses :)
its got to be classic casualty
“you don’t have to believe everything they say.” Well that’s not scary for my next doctor visit .
Please do literally ANY other House M.D. episode!! They are all so iconic!
Courtney Smith hey namesake 😅😄✌
*EVERY
"Medically very rare cases." Yeah, that is kinda the point of House. Hint: House's apartment is #221B.
B F wait why is that a hint I don’t get it
@Nils Böhm Woah, I didn't even realize that, that's s cool!!!
are you joking? he's literally sherlock holmes?? but doctor
Isabella Campos exactly
My name is Sherlock Holmes and the address is 221B Baker Street. *Winks*
13:45 Doc didn't get the basic premise: House ONLY treats "interesting" cases, the ones other docs can't solve. You should see the series, it's actually quite cool. 😁
@7:00 hahhaha! i loved your expression lol you are so invested in the show that you forgot that it's JUST A SHOW!!!
Reminds me of were I grew up in Brooklyn.. Or is this jail?
Dude.. What was your childhood like man
I wish I had him as a doctor. Not because he’s attractive (though that too), but because he loves his job so much that I think he would really try hard to figure out what’s wrong
Who house? Or the video guy? Haha
Would you? By looking on extream cases that House is getting? He is like black hole sucking in most rare conditions ever. Except lupus, it's never lupus :P
I wish I had Dr house for a doctor because he is a genius
all docs lie you are a fool to trust them
I love how he teaches us while reacting
Alan Parker This comment is copied from Dr. Mike's "Real Doctor reacts ......"
Yes! Im going to go perform medical procedures on people!
I clicked on this video just in interest and I really like it because of this teaching ability
How old is Dr.MIke?
Sandeep Balachandran 27
i love how you show descriptions of the conditions!
I had an allergic reaction to MRI contrast a few years ago. I have NEVER seen so many people arrive in the imaging room so quickly! There was no one then suddenly there was like 15 people. And they immediately sent me down to the ER
Hope you left a good review for that hospital.
That actually happened in one episode in season 1!
@@Essuzu Yeah, this one.
@@anonymike8280 lmao
House and Wilson. Holmes and Watson. This is basically just a mystery show set against a medical background.
House is an incarnation of Sherlock Holmes
@@jtalistair6725 Now that you mention it, pretty much yeah. Never really thought about it. But instead of being addicted to heroine House is addicted to Vicodin though. And he doesn't play a violin or smoke a pipe :)
@@PhoenixNL72-DEGA- No he plays piano and guitar and lives in Apt 221B on Baker street.
@@jtalistair6725 Oh did he? Don't really remember those details. I watched it when it originally aired over here in 2004 and only watched till the 3rd season season stop. Never got around to picking it back up when the new seasons got released. Also back then I hadn't read the Sherlock Holmes original stories yet. So I didn't know details about Holmes's peculiarities either and wouldn't have recognized them in the series(Didn't know Holmes was an addict back then for instance).
Yup. It's an iteration of the "defective detective" trope.
This guy must be every mother in law's dream!
sute 100%.he is like charming prince(doctor).i'm sure all his patients are in love with him.😄😄
Loool
@Christopher Marlowe Chase ? I don't think so, Chase is an ass !
Must be a nightmare! Easily he can cheat on your daughter ! 78% men mostly will cheat or already cheated!
Even father in laws' :)
Question: How do doctors determine the competence of patients, for respect of autonomy? Specifically when treating neurodivergent people.
There are different ways that medical professionals and doctors can determine competency in their patients, both in neurodivergent and neurotypical people. Doctors assess:
A patient’s ability to receive, process, and understand the relevant information.
Their ability to express choice/ consent.
Their ability to recognize the implications of their choice.
And the ability to rationallly process the information.
Unfortunately, neurodivergent people no matter the specific condition are often assumed to be incompetent. As soon as someone diagnosed with a mental issue tried to refuse treatment they'd probably be taken to court. Thankfully I've never been seriously injured because I'm autistic and might not be allowed to make my own medical decisions if the doctors sucked enough.
Season 7; Episode 22
This episode is insane.
House tries trial medication that was being tested on rats. Starts gaining leg function and going on runs eliminating all pain in leg and stops the Vicodin, but then it all goes wrong.
MUST WATCH.
Angel Burgueno yes ❤️
Yes!!!
''Don't give the kids the worms" - sounds like something Dr. House would say LOL
You should react to untold stories of the ER
Exactly! It would be much more interesting to me to see real doctors critiqued. I'm no doctor, but I have a Master of Medicine degree so my head's in the game.
Jazzy's Book Fridge yesssssss
Jazzy's Book Fridge YESSSSSSSSSS

Too funny at 12:50 Dr. Mike says "How does he know that?"

Nunca é! (never was)
This cracked me up
I subscribed when he said he didn't know those statements about tapeworms and that was out of his expertise. That's how I know he wasn't bullshitting what he said earlier in the video just to sound smart. Thanks for being humble!
Omg, you are so concerned about her when she stopped breathing! You are an awesome doctor and I love your channel! I wish there were more doctors who actually cared about patients as much as you do about a fictional one 😉🤩😘
House MD is still, till this day my fav medical show. Good to see it with you eyes as a professional. And House as character - so so delightfully fun!! 😀
I believe the tv show, “The Resident”, would be a good medical show for a reaction video. Especially something like Season 1, Episode 4 and the issue within the ER involving triage. As someone in the military, we are taught basic triage information but I would be curious to know about real-world civilian ER triage protocol.
Larc91 this episode was about the new nurse in chastain... and the mistaken identity of one of the patients...
I’m soooo glad someone requested The Resident, one of my all time favourite shows ❤️👍🏼 please watch it
Yes “The Resident”would be an awesome show for him to react to!!
jerantology jerantology yep! But the reason he wasn’t properly identified was because the new nurse didn’t know how to handle high-paced triage. He wasn’t deemed serious enough so he was set to the side for “more important” patients.
Now Scrubs! I mean, I never watched that show before but we can watch it together for the first time lol
it's sooo goood! i just started it! it's funny! it's twenty minutes episodes so i watch one every day it's short perfect for med students haha
Bruh I used to watch scrubs ALL the the time when i was little like 10 years ago it's the best show on this planet i swear to god
Please watch Scrubs! It's more for laughs, but I think you'll love Turk and J.D. Dr. Cox is the best.
Haha okay Katie, lets get those upvotes!

I love how he looks genuinely concerned when the character was having a reaction to the MRI lol aw
I did, too! He must be a good doctor and a good person.
Watch "House's Head" and "Wilson's Heart" from House M.D. Season 4 episodes 15 and 16 respectively. The episodes are some of the best from the entire series.
yes please do. Hugh Laurie received an Award for those!
Oh yeah! Those are brilliant.
Yeaaa see those!!! Plus you got +1 sub! :)
Please watch and analyse more!!
I completely agree! Those are my favorite of all, except the one with three stories.
Back when Mike's videos were more formal, now they're so much more humourous, funny, yet professional and informative.
Man's definitely learnt!
I could literally just watch you do this for every House episode.

Radiologist in a making here
I love how this show evolves over the seasons. It shows the doctor's vulnerabilities explicitly, both personal and professional. Highly entertaining. I don't really know how medically accurate it is as I am only familiar with some of the medical language, but I still find it delightful to watch.
Oooh, if he doesn't like what House did in the pilot, he's not gonna like the worse shit he did.
Broke a patient's finger on purpose, shot a corpse in the hospital's mortuary (yes, with an actual gun, not a needle), etc.
😂😂😂😂
...trapped a teenaged girl in an elevator against her parents’ wishes and searched her lady bits for ticks.
To be fair, he did find it in time before the dad ran in and punched him lmao
Ruptured a patient's father's liver cysts by hitting him with his cane...
Ooh, I also remember when he broke into a guy's house and drugged him and tied him up.
I mean, he _did_ cure his phantom limb pain, but...
It's never Lupus.
Nstone53 the episode when it actually is lupus es great too
Ive noticed doctors dont test for lupus right away. I remember when my dad was sick it took the doctors a few days till someone suggested doing a test for lupus lol
Probably the most said line in house
it took my best friend sister 7 years to have a positive diagnosis for lupus.
Sad but it was lupus the entire time! She is still here praise the Lord but a teacher told her years earlier she in fact has lupus and he was right!
BenjPlays what about "it's an autoimmune disease"
This channel has quickly become my favourite!
Thanks Rach! I hope to continue making content you enjoy!
