- Hey, guys. This is gonna be an unusual one. We're watching a cartoon
child play a doctor. I know ZdoggMD has done this before, so cheers to him for the idea, but if I'm gonna teach
anybody about medicine, I like to teach kids. (vocalizing) (monitor beeping) (smooth music) (upbeat music) (laughing) That's one confident doctor. Can you imagine if I walk
into a patient's room, and be like, ♪ Doctor Mike really knows his stuff ♪ (upbeat music) I wanna do the blood pressure
cuff like that on my patients, and they just float up. It'd be good times all around. - Hi!
- Hi, Mom! - Emmie, I just saw your mom outside. Time for you to go home for dinner. - Okay, thanks! - Why do I feel like Doc McStuffins' mom is an actual doctor? She had kind of the doctor
bag, the doctor white coat. - How was work, Mom? Did you have any cool patients? - Nothing too interesting,
just a few colds. Oh, and a sprained finger. - It sounds like she's
a family medicine doc, because she's seeing people with colds, minor musculoskeletal complaints, which means that there's something wrong either either with the muscles, nerves, or skeletal system, like the bones. I'm the type of doctor that
Momma McStuffins is also. She could be also an ER doctor. - I have a really interesting patient. - Ooh. If you need a second opinion,
you know where to find me. - Okay. - So, a second opinion is
exactly what it sounds like. When one doctor says here's
what I think is going on, they can go see another doctor, and the other doctor
can lend their opinion, and say well, here's what I think. They can either agree or disagree, and then the patient can
choose who's plan to follow. - The doc is in. We have a new patient. - Come on out, Jack. (Stuffy yelling) (Jack laughing) - Big Jack's the name, popping's my game. Here's (laughing) Little Jack! You okay, Little J? You're not quite poppin'
like yourself today. He's gonna be okay, right, Doc? You can fix him, can't ya? - Don't worry, Big Jack. Little Jack's in good hands. - That dinosaur just
gave the perfect answer. When someone's going to see the doctor, you don't want to promise that
everything's gonna be okay, 'cause you may not know. Little Jack is in good hands. That's the ideal way to speak as a doctor. Now, we're gonna try our best, we're gonna figure out what's going on, we're gonna come up with a plan. You never wanna promise anything. In medicine, there's a lot of times the outcomes are outside of our control. - Hi, Little Jack. - Aww. - Hi, Doc. - I wanna help you, so you
can pop up like you used to. Why don't I give you a checkup? (gasping) - There's actually a secret that I'm gonna share
with everybody right now, that comes from some of the leading psychologists
across the world that I use in my office to get kids to trust me with their care. How often do you hear a
doctor say something like, if you get this shot, you're gonna get a lollypop or a sticker? That's good, but the better way to do it is to give the lollypop first,
to give the sticker first, create a rapport, get on good
terms, be happy together. Then, they're more likely to
trust you to get the shot, to allow you to look inside
their ears and mouth. That's the secret. - Hey, Little Jack. Wanna pick out a little sticker that you can put on your
box when you're done? - No way! Did Doc McStuffins just steal my secret that I shared with you guys? She's giving the sticker before it starts! This is the theory of reciprocation. She's a genius! - Why don't I give Big
Jack a checkup first, so you can see what I'm gonna do? - Ready when you are, Doc. - This is a great strategy. I'm super proud of Doc McStuffins here. What she's employing is like a phobia desensitization strategy. Basically, she's allowing
Little Jack to see what happens, because the biggest phobias happen when you fear the unknown. All right, I'm callin' out the medical inaccuracy in Doc McStuffins. She's taking a blood pressure
using a sphygmomanometer. However, in order to properly do this, you need to not only see the pressure, so you need some sort of gage, but you also need to
put on the stethoscope, and put it on the person's
artery to hear the sounds. (laughing) - Looks good. - What? How does she know it looks good? Use your stethoscope, Doc McStuffins. - Now, I'll use this light
to look in his eyes and ears. - Whoa, red flag. We don't use the same instrument to look in the eyes and ears. The ophthalmoscope, which is the device that we
look into the eyes is flat, so you can't hurt the person. You gotta be careful. - Okay, Big Jack. Open wide. (Big Jack vocalizing) Well, Big Jack. That's it. You look healthy to me. - What about his heart
and lungs, Doc McStuffins? I need a complete physical exam. You need to look at the whole patient. - I see the problem. - What is it? - Your clothes are
stuck in your music box. That's why you can't-- - That's the classic condition
known as shirt gearo, shirto gear stucking syndrome. - This looks to me like a
clear case of can't-pop-itis. - Oh, come on. Hers is so much better than mine. So, if you have anything
with an itis at the end, that just means inflammation. So, I don't know why it's
called can't-pop-itis, but A for effort. - Almost got it. There. - I did it! I can pop up again! - When kids get sick,
they get really down. They have high energy levels,
and then get really sick, and parents get scared, rightfully so. When children start feeling
better, they pop, ironically, pop back to life really quickly. - You fixed it! (laughing) Do it again, do it again! - Smooth with the little wink. - Only one more lap before
Ricardo wins the race! - Come on, you can do it! - [Donny] Whoa, wait. What's wrong? - Don't tell me Doc
McStuffins is a mechanic too. - I'm sure there's just
something wrong with him. Why don't I see if I can fix it? - Good idea, Doc. While you're doing that, I think today might be one of those days that Donny needs a little nap. - That's a dad who knows
what he's talking about. - When you don't sleep
enough, you get cranky. - Put me down, and I'll show you that I
still have plenty of zip! - Great, and I can observe
what's happening to you. - You were right. I can't go on. - It sounds like the symptom
is called dyspnea on exertion. It's basically when you get really tired, and short of breath, and
you can't catch your breath when you're trying to be active, like run around or walk around. - You'll be back to
winning races in no time! - You mean I can be in the
best race car ever race? - I hope so. - See, again, she's not over-promising. She's saying I hope so. - What are you gonna do, Doc? - Ooh, look at Doc
McStuffins washing her hands before seeing the patient. Doctors should always do that before, and after seeing the patient. This type of hand hygiene
decreases the likelihood that the doctor will
be spreading infections to patient to patient and also to herself. - Open wide. - Aw, that's a good. - Looks normal. - That's a good one.
- Can you say ah for me? - Ah. - Okay, now can you give
me a big vroom vroom? (weak revving) - So, the vroom vroom is like
take a deep breath for me. I see the analogies. - Ricardo, you raced
like a bajillion times last night, right? - Yes, a bajillion, exactly. - When was the last time you recharged? - You mean my batteries? I don't remember. Several days ago. - Just like I thought. You must be out of energy. - Tell me Doc McStuffins
is talking about burnout. She's tackling one of the
biggest issues of our time. Sometimes our batteries run out of energy, and we need to recharge. - I have a diagnosis. - Oh, I wanna hear it. I'm gonna call it low battery-itis. - No vroom vroom-otosis. - Oh, no vroom vroom-otosis. - Oh, my.
- That's not bad. - Could you plug Ricardo in for me? I think he wasn't working
because he was rundown, so he needs to recharge. - Sure thing, sweetie. - Ah, vroom, vroom. (snoring)
(soft music) I am so fast. Eat my dust. - Aw, he's dreaming. See, when we recharge, it
could mean that we take a nap, it could mean we go on a vacation. It could just mean we take our
cellphones and put them away, and take a break from looking at all these social media
sites, and everything else. I can't believe I'm getting
all this philosophical stuff from watching Doc McStuffins. (revving) - I feel great! (energetic music) Do you see? Do you see how fast I am? (giggling) - You win again, Doc. - Doc McStuffins seriously
knows how to laugh and learn. So, check out this playlist
I put together for you, and I'll see you there
being happy and healthy. (smooth music)
I just put a post on here on a section on this video. It was on the dyspnea on exertion which is short for DOE also meaning department of education. They both have the same symptoms.
Honestly the one thing I love most is how much your eyes lit up and sparkled whenever Doc McStuffins talked about real life stuff especially when she talked about burnout. Reckon you'd review another episode sometime again? I would love to see that :-)
