Real Doctor Reacts to HOUSE M.D. | Medical Drama Review | Doctor Mike

Once again I dove into the comments section to see what medical tv drama you wanted me to review next and it seemed like Dr. House or House M.D. was the next most popular choice. Get ready TV Doctors, because Dr. Mike is coming for you =]
Full disclosure, I have watched a few episodes of House before but this was probably 10 years ago so I decided to go ahead and start this tv medical drama review off with the first episode ( House MD episode 1 ) of the series. I was really curious to see the difference in watching the show now that I am a licensed doctor. The last time I watched the program I was in high school and knew a tenth of the medical knowledge I know now!
Honestly, I love this medical tv show series because I think it allows us to laugh at some of the crazy situations Hugh Laurie gets himself into. Plus It gave an interesting look at what life is like as an infectious disease doctor especially one as highly regarded as Dr. House. Obviously, the way that he practices medicine is not realistic or accurate because we don't break into people's homes nor do we treat them without explaining what we are doing. All in all, I think Dr. House is a must watch tv show if you're into medical dramas just for laughs alone.
I hope you enjoy this episode of Real Doctor Watches House M.D. / Real Doctor Reacts to House M.D. If you want me to continue making this series please like the video and leave me a comment on which show or episode you'd like for me to review next. Love you all!

[@quickredf0x143]

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.

Yeah that makes sense because from what I can tell from this reaction Dr House himself seems like a very unlikable person. I didn't know who he was as a character because I didn't watch the show but from what I can see here he's clearly a sociopathic jerk that nobody likes for obvious reasons

[@CryptP]

@@musicalartist2584 yeah, that's pretty much it

[@musicalartist2584]

@@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

[@ArikGST]

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.

[@jacobday3826]

It makes a lot of sense, I noticed a lot of camera angles and lighting choices that would add fuel to that fire.

[@codyjones7475]

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.

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.

[@StarfoxHUN]

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 think they even said that House's Diagnostic team is an experiment.

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 😅

[@Bl4ckJade]

Can u please tell me the episode

[@reasonjo]

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.

[@mischalecterTV]

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.

10:00 I mean I couldn’t arrange it but that might be cause I’m stupid

[@gizmobrooch8577]

12:00 If this is the case, then when I had my back surgery and felt good enough to go home after 2 and a half weeks. Since I could do therapy my self it isn't hard. Even though for two weeks I could hardly walk but I was super motivated and plus the hospital is boring. I had to ask so many times to get released. I told them I wanna go home every day for over a week. And knew the "risk" of going home. Eventually they caved in. But hearing you say this, seems like I should have been out pretty much when I asked and signed the papers which I know takes a day or two to get approval or something. Maybe they thought I didn't understand the risk? Just because I was 21 and just had a 12 inch cancer entangled around my spine removed. The hospital was only tolerable the first weak, when I was super drugged up and time flew. But that 2nd weak I didn't wanna take as many pain killers unless I needed too, since I didn't wanna have withdrawals. Which I never did since I ended up taking 3 months of oxy in like a month and a half. And was fine after. But ye, kinda dumb they didn't let me go a few days after I asked.

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.

[@celestialunar]

Watching reaction videos is the only way I can enjoy medical dramas/content and Dr Mike is perfect for that! He explains things, he's a funny guy, his reactions are great! (I get anxious and often my legs get weak when hearing about/seeing medic related things so a reaction video helps me to not "die")

[@fuzzwobble]

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.

Question: How do doctors determine the competence of patients, for respect of autonomy? Specifically when treating neurodivergent people.

[@Scarecrow_Crane]

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.
