Very poor hygiene when you see that amount of thick, scaly feet. This is easily remedied w/ soaking in a dollar basin & very warm soapy water, thorough rinse & a vigorous towel rub. Comes right off w/ a few repetitions.Thick cream (not lotion), rubbed in. As a retired, 35 year PTA, I saw plenty of this in hospitals & nursing homes & helped them. The nurses did not have time. We made it a priority in physical therapy.

Any Doctor who ends up with a patient addressing him as "Man" should be teaching classes to doctors on bedside manner and how to treat patients with respect. Dr. Jefferson, you addressed your patient as "Brother" and "Man" in a number of your questions and statements to your patient and that did more to put him and me at ease than anything you did. I am seriously jealous. I have been a diabetic since 1976 and only two doctors in my life have put me at ease like you did with this patient. If you ever move your practice to the Milwaukee area, I will be your first patient. You are one of the best doctors I have ever seen. Again, I am seriously jealous of your patients.

[@UntilTheEnd123]

Folks seem to think the abundance of dry skin between toes and around the toenails is fungus. He has circulatory issues that causes excess dry skin. As the patient said, he felt shame around his feet and men aren’t socialized to take care of their feet like women are. He just needed some good ol exfoliation and lotion. There’s a difference between “washing” your skin and “exfoliating” your skin. I’m so happy with this transformation 💚 you leave the feet looking taken care of as opposed to other less thorough pediatrists only treating the nails and leaving the skin looking like a complete mess.

[@idontextback]

I just don't buy that. If a person, male, female, or in between, doesn't want to take care of BASIC self care, then they can take responsibility for it. It's not momma's or daddy's fault, or wife's fault, or society's fault. It's each person's fault. Period. I am the last person who is going to give a man a pass for not take a bath, using a washcloth, and a nailbrush. The shame comes from not taking care of himself.

[@rowsieiacono92]

@@idontextback you cannot judge someone because you just don't know their circumstances. He is a 74 year old male. He looks after his elderly father who would probably be high needs. Money is tight for him. Being that age, men were never taught to look after their feet like women were. Having a rams horn such as that can be the result of a nail injury and unfortunately once the nail bed is damaged, it can never be repaired to look normal again. The Doc mentioned that his dry skin is due to his poor circulation. Again being old school, moisturising his feet is a girl thing to do. He may also have flexibility issues and doesn't know that there is equipment out there with handles so people can reach. So please don't judge what you don't know.

Canadians also I presume. My feet at 70 are really good. Straight toes and no problem nails. This is a terrible way to have to live. He needs to soak feet and clean away dead skin.

[@ttinkers1062]

He has insurance. Its called Medicare. He said he just didn't go to the doctor.

[@MaryCBV]

@@RareGem369 You mean socialized medicine that is NOT FREE because someone is paying for it! Way to go Bernie bro 😏

[@katisclean]

I'm so grateful for you. This person needed that extra TLC with his feet. Thank you for caring for your patient as much as you do.

[@flyingbeaver57]

Dear Dr. Jefferson, Thank you for posting this video. At different times in my life, I've worked as a journeyman in the Trades, and (quite a while later) as an engineer, with a bit of teaching thrown in with the latter. So I have great respect for people who do skilled work with their hands, and doubly so when I see the work being performed with the care and attention that you showed not only in taking down that unusually large "ram's horn" but in your approach to your patient both in cleaning up his feet with a great amount of attention to details, and in how you explained to the gentleman what you were doing, and why, and gradually learning some of the "back story" of his previous health issues that might bear upon his foot issues. It is a genuine pleasure to watch a real pro with "good hands" at work. That was very evident with some very tough and awkward-to-reach areas on built up nails. If this was an orchestra, you'd definitely be sitting in the "1st violin" or "concertmaster's" seat, given your skill, your patient and the slow, gentle way you worked. You never gave the patient any sense that there was a need to rush - you steadily, but with no hurry kept cleaning up and making a plan for treatment as you went. I could see that you were using compound-action snips, but even with that extra leverage, doing the work you showed here required strong hands and a measured, careful and delicate touch. The ability you have is uncommonly special. I have wished more than once that I did not live several thousand miles from your office! That said, I have learned a tremendous amount, not only about self-care and self-examination of my feet, but of when it is necessity to get help from a professional if I find something that's "not usual." Happily, I have had no emergencies, and I've learned a lot about how the fit of shoes can affect foot health. Up here, we also spend a portion of most days in winter boots, which bring other challenges. Since first seeing you use Shea Butter on your patients' feet, I made a point of finding a source willing to work through the mail, and now Shea Butter is part of my daily routine. I think my feet appreciate it - I certainly do. Thank you, and best regards from the northwest of Alberta, Canada. I always enjoy watching you work with your patients, using your skills, compassion and (if necessary) firm and gentle persuasion to help them, whatever the issue.

[@Totalchaos0228]

This is incredibly sad. I hope hes able to find the help and resources he needs, seems like a really nice guy.

[@andierich6677]

The patient asked a lot of the same questions I had. It's a good thing to be inquisitive... especially when your health is concerned. I'm glad he came in for treatment.

[@rhondamoore3821]

Agree. I like the way the patient asked more questions, and engaged more conversationally as he became increasingly comfortable. You know someone’s comfortable when they start inquiring about buying the doc’s products😉.

[@cwestbrook7695]

The sense of trust and respect he has for you...every time he called you "Brother" it was FILLED with pride. You are his dreams come true

[@t.thompson8985]

Bless your heart Doc. You have a special way of connecting with your patient.

[@jodavis4223]

Excellent foot care with a gentle and caring doctor.

[@sirsleepy2472]

This is where family is important. My aunt is 75 years old and she can’t take care of her feet and my aunt and sister regularly give her pedicures. Poor man.

[@leejay2418]

Another fantastic video. Thank you Dr Kevin for your care of this patient.

[@bobbibuttons8730]

Thank you for being you Dr K. It was lovely to hear how the patient praised you. He seems a lovely man and certainly sounds much younger than 74 Even at my young strong days, I was very slim but very strong and I never ever could have used clippers to cut down those nails. It must take incredible strength in wrists and hands.

[@marthaanderson7716]

I’m ALWAYS impressed with Dr. Jefferson. He’s Excellence in Action!

[@raemoore1780]

You did an excellent job Dr Jefferson

[@tyroidcrei4918]

21:23 man... he sounded nervous when the doctor said he had to keep coming back... American healthcare really sucks :/

[@MotherofDragons937]

That was so sad! 😢

[@jemreandeau3583]

This patient hit the nail on the head, you do an amazing job Dr Jefferson. You have a very calming and reassuring manner with all your patients.

[@evelynparker1959]

Doctor, it’s such a complement to you as a Physician when people feel at ease with you. It’s so good that you are down to earth. Blessings to you.❤

[@yootoob2]

Ok. THIS is my all time favorite! I'm going to come back to this one so many times!

[@kendread]

Yeah. For whatever reason, beyond the obvious, this is a good one.

[@anarosaraleira1768]

Parabéns. As pessoas devem sentir um alívio enorme.

[@galloway1992]

You aren't a doctor. You're a human being. Putting the patient first and making him feel at ease is an extraordinary skill to perfect. Thank you so much for being such a beautiful and wonderful person. Blessings

[@deelola5273]

This is one of my favorite videos that you’ve made. You could tell that the patient was really nervous but you made him calm and he even stated that later in the video. It takes a special kind of doctor to make somebody feel less nervous and feel comfortable asking questions.

[@SnoopRockinJayDawg]

74? He sounds 25. You are a very caring doctor

[@natashawall8131]

I thought he was young, too.

[@bigmikehikez2927]

A true professional. He did such great work and treated the kind man with respect.

[@dabresha11]

I really enjoy listening to you talk to your patients... very calming voice. Non judgmental. I love how this gentleman kept saying how impressed he was with you, almost like a father talking to his son and how proud he is of you. Great job!.❤🙏🏽

[@artiejohnson703]

I love how you educate the patient. And how important it is to take care of their feet.

[@ellenraysmith4391]

Dear Dr. Jefferson, I just love the way you approach your patients. You are so kind and attentive. Love they way you take time to educate your patients.

[@candacerichardson4595]

All I can say is WOW! Job well done doctor!

[@kimprixe7249]

Hey DOCTOR D.C you are case of straight up CLASS VERY IMPRESSIVE VERY IMPRESSIVE

[@cierapaige9139]

I really appreciated how the doc answered his questions. He didnt make him feel bad about any of his concerns or conditions. Ihave so much respect for Drs that kindly and tactfully educate their patients

[@miss30427]

Doctor, you are an angel. I've only watched a couple of your procedures during this pandemic, but I can tell that you are a saint. Bless you and your team for the caring you give to your patients.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@avrilcaulfield7627]

An unbelievable improvement Am excellent job

[@grigrig9107]

He's an brilliant doctor. That big toe looks impossible.

[@marciabarkley9032]

This doctor is very thorough and has a great bedside manner.

[@dianeambrose683]

Your kindness with your patients shows what a good man you are. God bless you and your staff. Our feet take us through our lives and are to be treasured.

[@darniataylor7749]

This is a great video for so many reasons. I'm glad that Dr. J. was able to help this gentleman get on the right track as far as his for care. Hopefully he'll get connected with someone & get his insurance in order as well. I love that Dr. J. was able to earn his trust, that's a hard thing to do especially with the older generation. I'd love to see a follow-up on his care. I hope everyone is staying safe, sane and healthy. 😷

[@stephanieaikens9622]

Do you take donations? As a nurse it’s an outrage to have to see someone “getting funds in order” to treat a foot problem that severe. Please let me know, I’d like to personally offer him some peace of mind.

👏🏽

I agree, surgery tech here. Can we send some money so people that can't afford diabetic socks etc, can get what they need?

[@seamstresscaducea]

I see all manner of doctors at work every day and you, Dr Jefferson, are a Class Act. Hats off to you, sir.

[@donnadalessio3853]

This doctor is so kind and caring, I’m sure this man feels so much better .

[@wilmaschraven8421]

CHAPEAU 👏🏼 DR: Jefferson. an excellent Doctor,but most of all....a very heartwarming empathic human being. many greetings from...The Netherlands 💐💐💐💐

[@barbaracrilly6833]

This Doctor does an excellent job on patients feet,

[@maleficara]

As someone who has a general practice that just, doesn't care. You've given me a big smile and a happy heart knowing there ARE fantastic doctors out there who truly care. As someone who lost her Grandfather because he wouldn't speak up, it lifts my spirits to see how much he started opening up to you about his health.
