- Doctor: we couldn't save his hand in the surgery,
we're sorry.
Woman, you said he was gonna be all right.
Well his left hand is gone
so he's gonna be all right.
(man laughing)
- All right, all right, all right.
(upbeat music)
- I've heard the topic of meme review get thrown around
and I found out that PewDiePie was the one
who made meme reviews popular.
I asked you guys to send me the funniest medical memes.
All right, this is your spine.
Me, what the, put it back.
If I come on to my patient I'm like this is your spine
and they say put it back I will cry,
it's just the truth of the matter.
When a new patient doesn't remember the names
of their medications,
you gotta give them the judgemental Justin Timberlake eyes.
Sleeping positions of different professionals.
And then the doctor's on call in the ER.
No but seriously I feel like whenever I was on call
for a 24 hour shift I would only be in the bed
and you could catch me in the bed for like 15 minutes
at a time.
Haha, you got Targaeryan lady Daenerys, Dalerius, Delirious?
- He's refused to call me queen.
- And you have RNA and DNA.
RNA is single stranded like her hair,
even though that's not really a single strand,
but it looks like one
and then DNA is a double helix.
Well you see doc, the problem is obesity runs in my family.
Doctor, no the problem is nobody runs in your family.
Not everyone's obesity is a result of them being sedentary.
In fact, the biggest problem when it comes to obesity
is nutrition.
I broke my arm in three places.
Doctor, well don't go to those places, I love it,
I've made this joke to my patients before,
I have to admit it, they weren't happy with me.
Show up 15 minutes late,
they cancel your appointment,
show up on time to doctor,
you're waiting an hour.
My man Denzel knows what's up.
We wanna give patients the appropriate amount of time
that they need for their given appointments, right?
So if you come 15 minutes late you're actually impeding
on the time of someone else's appointment.
You're healthy as a horse.
Me, great.
A horse with cancer, what a mean spirited,
I feel like there should be a horse somewhere
in this picture, is there one?
No, no horse.
She's just a little paranoid,
her shift is quiet and going smoothly,
so she thinks it's the coming of the apocalypse.
Us healthcare professionals,
we are superstitious, we don't like saying the q word
I have said it before, I wish I didn't,
six seven admissions, two rapid responses,
one code blue and obviously I didn't get any sleep
and I was like that last meme with the doctor not in his bed
Performs life saving 12 hour surgery
patient thanks God.
I want to live to be 100 years old.
Antivax mom, three, take it or leave it.
Yes, why is it that on one hand
when I'm in the ER I'm saving you
and then when you're child comes to see me in the office
I'm poisoning them with neuro toxins?
So I heard that you two finally tied the clot.
Sure did, coagulations!
Actually platelets are involved in the clot,
there's no platelets here, actually is that a platelet?
I don't know it kinda looks like it's just a red blood cell.
Ever find yourself admiring a stranger's veins?
Absolutely.
Right next to them should be like Ronnie Coleman,
if you don't know who Ronnie Coleman is,
that's Ronnie Coleman.
This guy has garden hoses for veins.
Expectations versus reality.
Going to the doctors with Instagram knowledge.
This is mean,
I can't react to this, all people are beautiful.
Headache, normal person, I didn't sleep well.
Medical student, I have intracranial hematoma.
Med students, because we're constantly learning
about certain illnesses,
the symptoms at one point or another
will match up with something that you're having
or experiencing and you think you have
the worst possible scenario.
Just because it's like front of mind,
top, tip of tongue front of mind,
I don't know the expression.
Doctor, looks like you don't have any health insurance
so we're gonna let you die.
Okay, fantastic, thank you.
We don't let our patients die
when they don't have insurance,
in fact in my hospital where I work
we have a charity care system in place
for this exact reason,
to make sure people get covered if they don't have
enough money to pay for insurance.
My face when I've been admitted
and someone tells me to get well soon.
What?
How to figure out a doctor's handwriting?
Medical alphabet.
This is me, people have been telling me this
since I was in third grade
and I was getting like Cs is penmanship.
Don't worry I practiced on a mannequin once.
This is so true.
Nowadays what we do is we make sure
we bring in a senior doctor who has done this enough,
is clear to do it, will now watch this person perform
the procedure and sign off each time they do it
until they get the required numbers in.
I would've loved if this meme said don't worry,
I practiced it on Surgeon Simulator.
Chop, chop, no no no, I don't mean to chop his lungs.
What did the surgeon say to the patient
who insisted on closing up his own incision?
Suture self.
That's okay.
When your 24 hour shift is finally over
but you see a critical patient being wheeled in.
Yeah, when I was young I decided to go to medical school.
At the entrance exam, we were asked to rearrange the letters
P-N-E-I-S
and form the name of an important human body part
which is most useful when erect.
Those who answered spine are doctors today,
while the rest are on Facebook.
Is it bad that I wasn't thinking spine?
I totally wasn't thinking spine.
I feel like this was a trick question
and I don't think this is accurate.
So if you though what I though
then you know what you though.
Just be okay with it.
Super freak.
Welcome to the medical field
where any day is a work day
and the holidays don't matter.
So true, Who's Line Is It Anyway,
one of the greatest shows of all time,
but yeah, any work day, every day is a work day
and holidays definitely don't matter,
in fact Christmas is right around the corner
and guess what, I'm gonna be working
multiple days, especially after Christmas, so.
When you realize that you still have over 1000 slides
to study for the exam
and it's one am.
I'm fine.
This is how I studied.
I know people say cramming is bad
and it is for most people.
Unless I study for a short period of time,
I could not do it, for a lot of tests,
like for the big ones I obviously studied,
but for the majority of my tests,
when it was the weekend before,
I just got in the zone man.
Roses are red, it's hot like hell,
mitochondria?
It's the energy center of the cell.
So it's like roses are red,
it's hot like hell,
the energy center of the cell?
Eh, eh, eh.
Asks you where it hurts, then puts pressure on it.
We wanna localize your pain,
we wanna see what part of the anatomy is actually hurting,
distinguish if it's bone, neural pain,
is it the same type of pain that you're complaining about
or is this a new pain that I've discovered,
because there's a difference between tenderness and pain
and it is a very important distinction.
Antibiotics from Mexico, my throat infection.
Extra.
I had plenty of time to look over the results.
Are they good?
I don't know, didn't look at them.
I have to admit I've done this before.
So the results that we get usually,
if something is abnormal, they get highlighted right away
so it jumps at your attention.
If I see that there's nothing abnormal
and the patient isn't coming in for another week
and I know it's not urgent,
I will say a lie like this,
I have like oh, I saw your lab results
then my patient's will be like
well how are they?
I'm like well let's take a look at them together,
cause I totally didn't pay attention
or I don't remember exactly what the labs where.
Thank you student loans for helping me get
through medical school,
I don't think I can ever repay you.
They definitely help you get through med school
'cause when you go through year one and year two,
you're usually around a hundred thousand dollars in debt
at that point, so guess what,
if year three starts going not so well,
you have a fire lit behind you
where you're like oh man I'm a hundred thousand in debt
and if I fail out now, I'm in trouble,
so they do help you get through med school
and I hope you can repay them
how you actually look versus how you look
in your hospital badge photo.
I don't know what it is that cameras
that we use in the hospitals
to take our photo IDs look like they're like Polaroids
from the 1960s, I hope I'm not getting that wrong.
It's just the quality is bad,
it changes the dimensions of your face.
So tell me everything you told the nurse five minutes ago.
Actually Gabbie Hanna just told me this the other day
she said that do doctors actually read the charts
because I say hard no.
I worked last week on a long shift
and I walked into a room
where the nurse told me some brief details
about the patient, I totally forgot them
'cause I got caught up doing something else
and I again walked in I said,
hey so tell me what seems to be the problem
and I thought about Gabbie and I was like hm,
now I know why they think we sometimes don't read the chart.
Do you think this puppy's adorable?
Well he used to be like this big, 20 pounds,
click here for his puppy video.
As always stay happy and healthy.
