Who is Doctor Mike?
Dr. Mike Varshavski is a board-certified family medicine physician and one of the most-watched doctors on YouTube. His channel mixes medical myth-busting, reaction videos and interviews, and he hosts the podcast "The Checkup with Doctor Mike."
What's on the table
Doctor Mike reacts to medical TikToks and Reels, including clips from creators such as Jeff Nippard, Dr. Zack MD and others, and sorts the sound advice from the misleading kind.
