F Minus by Tony Carrillo for September 06, 2024

I was never too sure about Amazon medical care. But I’m SURE I don’t like the YouTube plan!!

At least the knowledge is current.

I’ve signed on to a screwed in upper denture, Hope they watch some video

Don’t be silly. Please hand me a Phillips Head and a shim.

My first operation, years ago, was an appendectomy performed by the older brother of one of my classmates. (Still here!)

“Nah, we can pause as we go.”

the last A.I. video had hallucinations

HMO.

So if the doc is an OB/GYN shouldn’t he be watching Tube Tied vids?

The Florida surgeon who mistakenly removed someone’s liver probably should have listened to that advice. I’m still gobsmacked.

Unfortunately, most how-to videos are not well-edited. The first 10% is introducing the videographer, the next 20% is background on the history of the hammer (scalpel, whatever), some hand-waving glossing over pertinent details, some corrections to wrong instructions given earlier in the video, and ending with another 10% soliciting one to subscribe.

When I’m performing an operation on my car, I go back to the video repeatedly. The car doesn’t mind.

They guy in Florida getting his liver taken out instead of his spleen may be a one in a million accident. But it’s going to put a lot of people off having an operation.

Dr. Youtube, report to surgery….Dr. Youtube…

The patient agrees, you should watch the whole video.
