Patient was having a heart attack. Um... why does he have a hole in his throat?

[–] BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 18 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Why would you ask me? I ain't a doctor. Anyway I'd better be going now...

[–] EddoWagt@feddit.nl 22 points 3 months ago

Gets back in airplane seat

[–] 418_im_a_teapot@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago

Should have said steak knife.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

as long as it's under 3 inches it's allowed

[–] nialv7@lemmy.world 17 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Isn't that the plot of the good doctor? (I have never watched it)

[–] apex32@lemmy.world 26 points 3 months ago (5 children)

No. The Good Doctor is about an autistic doctor. He is incredibly knowledgeable, but has issues talking with patients and working with others.

[–] Jax@sh.itjust.works 22 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

autistic

TV autistic, where autism is a super power

[–] Digestive_Biscuit@feddit.uk 8 points 3 months ago

Episode 1 has a scene similar to this.

[–] garbagebagel@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)
[–] TheFlopster@lemmy.world 15 points 3 months ago (2 children)

House isn't autistic. He's brilliant, but in constant pain and taking it out on anyone and everyone around him.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

You mean to say that autism ISN'T the same thing as malignant narcissism compounded by drug addiction and being brilliant enough to be surrounded by enablers?! 🤯

[–] Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

People can have comorbidities. I think House has chronic pain, autism, and NPD.

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 16 points 3 months ago (2 children)

But one is for sure, he doesn't have lupus.

[–] tempest@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 months ago

No but the patient did that one time

I don't remember the show ever officially ruling that out.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Also, isn't he 14 years old or thereabouts?

[–] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

No, he's an adult who went to medical school at the usual time.

There are frequent flashbacks to his traumatic as fuck childhood, but he's an adult doctor.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Ah ok, must have confused it with another show I saw a trailer of, then 🤷🏻

[–] fibojoly@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You re thinking of Doogie Howser, M.D. perhaps?

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Nah, that's from before my time but also stars NPH so I wouldn't confuse it with anything NOT starring Dr Horrible 😁

[–] Mesophar@pawb.social 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

This appeared as a moral dilemma

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 months ago

Cause at first it was weird though I swore to eliminate

[–] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

In your defense, Freddie Highmore looked very young in the first season. Made especially egregious cause he played a young autistic man who didn't know how to mask. It made him read as much younger than he is.

[–] Simulation6@sopuli.xyz 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Almost the same plot as Extraordinary attorney Woo.

[–] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago

Yes, it's based on another Korean show (called Good Doctor). It was actor Daniel Dae Kim who helped bring the show to America. He is also the actor Freddie Highmore played opposite in the now infamous "I am a surgeon" scene.

[–] fibojoly@sh.itjust.works 11 points 3 months ago

Beautiful can-do attitude!

[–] 1984@lemmy.today 11 points 3 months ago (1 children)

McGyver would have used a chewing gum but I award your effort with a pancake.

[–] Katana314@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

I use the pancake to seal the wound!

Sure, he’s dead, but we can at least get started on a nice-ish embalming.

[–] Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk 10 points 3 months ago

Confidence is 99% of the solution!

[–] Proprietary_Blend@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The first step in an operation of this type is...

...to shave the patient.

[–] kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

"Take your pants off"

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 8 points 3 months ago

"I'm a doctor."

"Aren't you going to help?"

"Well, I'm a doctor of archeology so I can't do much until after he dies."

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

Fake it 'til you make it.

[–] tetris11@feddit.uk 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I am new way to go
I am the way of the future

[–] Gerald@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

ah... the crow soundtrack was the best

[–] tetris11@feddit.uk 2 points 3 months ago

really was!

[–] Fluffy_Ruffs@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

I hope to go to doctor school someday

[–] garbagehead@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Get your Ed D in education, anyone can get that with two years of easy work. Edited to call you Future Doctor.

[–] Hozerkiller@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 months ago

"This man is having a heart attack is anyone a doctor?" "I am." "Can you save him?" "Oh no, I'm a doctor in integrative dance."
