This guy comes across fake as hell slimy shi t

As a public figure and a doctor, you are held to the higher standard of guidelines and rules that you preach to your followers and patients. I am not throwing shade here. I have one question that you need to ask yourself. And to answer only to yourself. Would you have come out with a public apology had you not been “caught” breaking your own rules? Your honest answer to yourself will tell you which way to go from here. Take care.

Another one of those “do as I say and not as I do” types. Double the disappointment since this one is supposed to be a doctor and needs to set an example to the public. It’s sad because I keep seeing nurses and doctors holding up signs in the hospital saying “we stay here for you, please stay home for us” and here comes a doctor partying it up in a yacht with a bunch of strangers in the middle of a pandemic. I haven’t had a party like that in ages and I don’t even have a fancy medical degree, but I’ve been following stay at home orders and social distancing rules based on the advice of medical professionals. I’ve gotta ask, what is even the point if doctors can’t even comply with their own rules?

awesome darling ...........

It’s ok Mike. I still like you. Everyone is a hypocrite at least once in their lifetime. At least your apology vid is simple and short compare to those other apology vids that are 45-60min long (plus all the CRYING). It’s expected for ppls to always look for mistakes in influencers. At least you didn’t kill anyone 😂

This guy sounds like all the Canadian politicians that went to the Caribbean at Xmas with their schmultzy apologies.

Give the guy a break it’s not like any of you are better

Nobody is perfect. You weren't the only person who has gone to parties or visited loved ones during the pandemic. It was a lapse of judgement that gave you public embarrassment. It will pass. I still like you. But I agree that it would be a good show of faith to post this at the top of your personal account. Also, perhaps, explain why it wasn't there first? You're still my hero, bro!

One rule for us and another for everybody else. Hypocrite.

Funny how he's hidden the actual figures for the likes and dislikes....guess he doesn't want his fragile little persona ruined.

Love all the holier than thou people commenting who judge others constantly as if they are a god

lmfao he hid the dislikes

Hypocrite guy!

you’re my role model. i want to become a doctor because of you. but this? i’m not mad, just really disappointed... you’re a doctor. you’re Doctor Mike, not Mike. practice what you preach. please :(

Eh, don't worry about it. It's over and done with. Too many self-righteous types in the comments.

Why isn’t this a main channel video??

we know the pandemic is going mad when even a “doctor” is going out without a mask :/ This is why the pandemic is never ending-

I respected you for being one of the handful of professionals in the medical field to sound the first alarm and to support strict health care protocols at the onset of CoVID-19 outbreak. I lost work opportunities, have estranged friends and families, missed visitations to ill friends and relatives because I followed the same health care protocols. Over the past 12 months, I haven't traveled farther than 2 miles from home to reduce the risk of catching the virus. I limit my travels to bare essential needs basis, and when I do, I try to protect myself as best I can that sometimes I look like I wear HAZMAT suit when I go out. I, like many during this pandemic, slowly becoming stir crazy, being limited in our mobility and recreational opportunities. I'm 100% sure I'm not alone in this situation, believing that your audience and yourself is in the same boat. And then you went to board a different boat in Miami, disregarding social distancing measures, maskless, swept the fact under the rug and made this half-cocked, self-serving, sad excuse of an apology. This hurts me in so many ways. It hurts that for all the talk about responsibility, accountability and ethics that you champion on your channel, you seem to think that all of these things don't apply to you, in several occasions now (remember that reaction video beef with a certain medical doctor? or that time you backed off from an interview and allegedly made a slanderous remarks about a booking agent?). I'm UNSUBSCRIBING to your channel until you are fully aware of the impact of your poor decision in taking part in the event and handling this situation. Others in the comment section have pointed out what you need to do: bring this issue to the main channel, make an ACTUALLY SINCERE apology, and face the crowd.

A frat boy bullshit apology that proves those threads on Reddit were in fact right about him. Unsubbed the moment I found out he was exactly the girl they said he was. Giving bullshit excuses at his big age grow tf up you’re not in college anymore.

Oh come why did the AM-posts recommended me this after watching meme review My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined

Some people are saying this was a bad apology but have you seen other you tubers apology videos, they literally just cry and beg for forgiveness while never stating what they did wrong

Everyone makes mistakes I get it and I heard an apology in the video and I accepted it 🤷🏽‍♀️❤️

"Risk Spectrum" for YOU? What about YOUR PATIENTS' risk of getting it FROM YOU?!? Did you inform any of your northern friends, patients, coworkers that you had put yourself at risk while enjoying your vacation without precautions? Anyway ... I'm not a fan anymore.

Sorry Mike, but if you really were sorry you would have put your “official” apology on your main channel and not your secondary channel. Yes, we’re all human and as such fallible, but you took a deliberate calculated risk. You could have been asymptotic and passed COVID to someone else and so on. Being young isn’t a defence to fend off COVID or to fail in your downtime responsibilities. Yes, your actions, and lack of, do carry significant consequences. Even if you didn’t have COVID, someone else could have and even with PPE, you could have unintentionally passed it on to a patient or a member of the public. If you’re truly sorry, then make it official on your main channel. I don’t think your channels should be cancelled, but a real way to make up for your error is to also do a range of interviews where people have contracted COVID from not adhering to basic precautions, donating at least 6 months of your channels earnings to a variety of local charities (you could even do one a month), issuing a proper apology on your main channel and finally and also demonstrate what you’re doing by way of self reflection on your main primary channel. That said, good luck nonetheless in life, in your medical practice and for the future.

All of us have messed up at one point in our lives. None of us are righteous enough to be the first one to pick up a stone and throw it to Dr. Mike for in the entirety of our lives we cannot confidently say that the lives we live are always clean and free from blemish. To you Dr. Mike - apology accepted. Learn from it and move on.

As a teacher who fears for the life of my family and myself every time I go to work (because I have to go to work because people like you have pushed so hard for in-person education), I’m disappointed in the level of hypocrisy but also at the number of justifications and pretending that you’ve followed guidelines. There’s no justification for your actions. We’re all sick of this, yet some of us continue to choose to do the right thing and protect those around us.

Hey doctor Mike, I believe that you are telling the truth, but I am upset because it seems kind of hypocritical of you .I’ve been a fan for a long time but I am disappointed. you’re the reason I took precautions about covid. But this was not expected to say the least but I understand we all are humans no human being Is perfect and everybody makes mistakes everyone deserves a second chance I hope you can learn from your mistakes and improve.

I don't think he did anything wrong.

U don't need to feel sorry, it's time of "being a human"... And I just feel thirsty after watching this video, how can I date with u? I will pay.

This is simply disgusting

No lo puedo creer, era una fiesta sorpresa de cumpleaños pero se testearon todos? No tiene sentido. Cuanta hipocresìa. La ùnica razòn por la que se disculpa es porque se filtro el video de la "fiesta en el barquito". Fue una decisiòn. Ya ni se puede creer en los mèdicos. Solo quiere fama, mujeres y dinero parece. Viviendo en un paìs donde hicimos la cuarenrtena mas larga del mundo en latinoamèrica. Ojalà los doctores acà dejan la vida por sus pacientes y no tienen equipos adecuados para protegerse pudieran darse el lujo de hacer lo que Ud. hizo. Los doctores son los peores pacientes. Decepciòn total.

Why not post this on your main page so that you can reach your whole audience?

I don’t agree with most of that comments as you’re young and healthy and catching COVID in your case will VERY likely be like a flu or completely asymptomatic. As young healthy individuals we can’t live in fear and isolate ourselves from ALL human relationships because that will have much greater consequences for our mental health than a flu. I guarantee a lot of people here saying oh “I’m disappointed in you Dr Mike” have been to parties, have been at restaurants, have been to reunions, Oh but wait I forgot COVID respects your sitting area when you’re eating and not wearing your mask 🤔🤔🤔🤔 Y’all need to stop being so hypocritical and leave the man alone, stop being so mean jeez! 🤦🏻‍♀️

All this talk of setting an example for your followers, professionalism and integrity... then you go do something like this. No one asked you to model best practices in your professional and personal life. You chose that role as part of your branding. Clearly you can't manage both personas. This "mistake" was you choosing your life as a celebrity and party boy over your integrity and judgement as a medical professional. I pity your patients and colleagues. I can't imagine how they must feel. This was disrespectful to so many, including the capacity of this virus to spread like wildfire when idiots make mistakes, and hypocrites make a conscious choice not to care about anyone but themselves. I just hope conspiracy theorists won't work this into their next stupid argument about how covid19 is all a hoax.

test kits are scarce and rationed in america. so putting yourself in a position where you need testing is also harmful given that it was used to protect a recreational purpose. when people do testing for parties and other recreational activities it reduces the availability of test kits for people that need it, put undue strain on labs and lab workers and reduces the efficiency of testing because it leads to a lag in test results. one of the ways to combat covid is expediency in testing. the sweet spot for turn around is 48 hours for the gold standard pcr. but when labs are overwhelmed, this is not possible. so sticking to the assurance that everyone was safe and test is STILL a stressor on the system. Testing does not mean your activities had no impact on the pandemic. it did.

I pray to allah and hope that you be safe mike and i pray your family be safe in this horrible time.

It's one thing to make a mistake, this was just incredibly self serving and hypocritical. To think I'd actually admire you as not just another influencer, but someone who understood his platform and the power he held. So much for that.

Doctor Mike, I love your videos but this is quite unprofessional, especially as a influencer and doctor. I 'm not one do be disappointed in you but I kinda am. You should've posted this on your main channel too. This is a important video and yet you posted it on your "blog" channel or what ever. Really unprofessional. I hope that you truly learn from your mistakes. I'm finished being a mom now.

Okay, I’m a new viewer. And I’m reading through these comments and I’m shocked. Here is this poor guy who is honestly apologizing. You can see it on his face. People only call it “justification” when they don’t agree with ones apology. That doesn’t make his apology insincere... He’s a doctor, yes. He’s an “influencer” yes. He’s a human being who inevitably will make mistakes, YES. I’m sorry, Dr. Mike. I’m sorry that being in the spot light the way that you are leads to people being mean and expecting perfection. People need to be more forgiving.

Yeah, You REALLY messed up. I just can't believe you actually thought you were comfortable with this birthday boat party guidelines. That part of the video is so far-fetched - I didn't believe that for a moment. Because you are young, handsome, "live in the fast lane" and presume to be untouchable ... you probably thought you wouldn't get caught...but you did. If this video didn't go public - you would still be hiding the fact that you "don't practice what you preach." Would you have told this story even if there wasn't a video? So upset by this. You need to grow-up, do better and get some new friends.

Dr Mike is hypocrite, democrat . He wants to shut down the restaurant business , economy while he went out party with a big group . He is another Nancy pelosy . Thats disgraceful

You are only sorry because you got called on it. If nobody said anything you wouldnt have apologized. What a jerk. Doctors know better

Show of hands, who has broken guidelines? AND Has family

I just found your channel and now I am so disappointed...

What a hypocrite and a coward. Dr Mike people are dying and are still not able to see their immediate family. Shame on you.

I want to know whether the women in the picture are strippers or they just wanted to be there.

Oh wow, when did the likes and dislikes get disabled?

Hello everyone, I have been reading all the disappointed comments but just say that u haven't done something wrong ever the truth and I will say u r right but here is my opinion: I know and understand some of ur situations and let me tell u this everyone makes mistakes! Not to offend anyone but Dr. Mike is a human too and he makes mistakes too and saying stuff like this is rude cuz like I said every one makes mistakes and what was he supposed to do it was a surprise party plus he followed protocols and he apologised. Some of you say that he is justifying himself and I say he has all the right to do so. I know this happened quite a while ago and I'm kind of late to this situation but when I see something I find somewhat rude I have to let someone know this is what I think. Dr. Mike gave an explanation and admitted he was wrong what more would y'all want!? Reminder: I'm not trying to offend anyone it's just my opinion and I hope I changed someone's mind.

I’m not into cancel culture. I’ve been following Dr. Mike for quite some time. He’s informative. No matter how the party went down or whatever. It was foolish. Doesn’t make everything he’s ever said wrong or a lie. He went against his own advice. I’ve gone against my own advice a thousand times. It’s called being human. Cancel culture is becoming an industry. There’s actually a video of a body language specialist determining if his apology is sincere..just why? So many holier than thou opportunists out there.

I know that this is a month after post, I just want to say that I’m a little sad. Sure, Being safe about it is definitely being smart. But that doesn’t mean you should do it. I haven’t seen my friends normally for a year, and my childhood might never be the same. However, staying at home will allow others following to have one with others. Even if I’m a minor, I think of this no less than my parents. Thank you for apologizing. Please stay home.

Man you guys are slaying him like you guys are soooooo perfect bruv he's trying to apologize even though he is famous it doesn't mean he is not a human

No one is perfect. Everyone condemning Mike for his mistake is acting like they've never made a mistake. And while this still doesn't excuse Mike due to him advocating to social distance and not party but then doing it anyways (even though he followed the guidelines). He's still human. You might believe a certain way and take the best precautions for safety (but there's always a small chance of infection) and he choose to have fun with his friends. I agree that because of his huge following, he should've did something smaller and more private but people will crucify him cause he wasn't perfect. But people make mistakes. And I bet people who have condemned Mike haven't social distance 100% of the time either due you "knowing" this person is safe cause I've been with him/her before and I'm fine.

Why isn't this on your main channel, doctor? Too scared people would finally recognize your performative activism? Or too scared of losing your big bucks and endorsements? I'm so disappointed Dr. Mike.

At least you could post this on your main channel 😟

A lot of you sound like you're taking you're anger out of him. Given what happened I think we all would have done the same. If my parents surprised us with a log cabin with more than enough room for me and my extended family we probably would have ran with it. Happily ate with our family, watched movies, played games, hell even played games. It sounds like a dream come true especially since we haven't seen or been with one another since February, people we used to spend sundays with, people who always spend time with us and who were always there when we needed them. We can be mad at him all we want, but we would have all done the same if we could. He looks almost happy at mentioning his friends, their surprise for him. He was happy at that moment and forgot about the pandemic in that moment. He was human and made a human mistake.

all good bro ur a good person and and everyone in the comments fuck u

Look we all are human and we all make mistakes no one is perfect so I wish people who are making a huge deal out of this would just learn to forgive and forget.

I used to love watching his videos, but now I feel like it's just not worth it anymore. I have no respect for this boy now. Also, I wonder how he would feel knowing that animals, including dogs like his Bear, can get covid.. I hope he learns from this and does better in the future. Now I'm worried for his puppy..

Shame that you did not practice what you preach. This act gives anti vaxxers voice. Plus shame on you on not uploading this on main channel and hiding like and unlike number to hide that people did not like this apology. Sorry not accepting your apology it does not look sincere. You guys literally put a lot of people in danger.

Just saw the title and thumbnail for a video about him being a hypocrite. Didn't watch it, though. Then saw this. Then saw the channel title and bbn wondered why he changed his channel name. Then realized he didn't. Watch his main channel pretty regularly, and didn't even know this one existed. Not gonna lie...feeling a bit let down.

Ok , he is and hypocrite but people makes mistakes it is normal I forgive you but do not do it again please

Geez , how am I barley seeing this now? Do the right thing and take accountability on your main channel, where everyone will see. You spoke about risks? You yourself were not at risk- yes. but , the potential risk of spreading this virus to those TRULY at risk is not something that should be taken lightly.. you work with general public for goodness sake. This goes beyond practicing what you preach. That being said, nobody is perfect. You aren’t hated. But this world needs more accountability, own it on the proper platform.

Listen next time just do better, we all make mistakes. But it does look hella sus When for the past eight months you’ve been saying to do a zoom party but then YOU can go to a real party boat with a bunch of Instagram models in Miami , Come on man

So the like to dislike ratio is hidden, huh? No worries dude, I'll just up vote all the comments calling you out.

Masks don't work see Danish mask study

UNSUBSCRIBE

I am struggling to want to keep engaging with your content again. People certainly make mistakes, including hypocrisy, but this barely seems like an apology given that the first half is just justifications, you've hidden this away on your MUCH smaller channel and you demonstrably did not follow guidelines (nevermind your own advice) for anyone who looks at the photos and can count into double digits. This just seems like a "I'm sorry...errr...(for getting caught)." There are millions of people who in similar moments also think that the rules don't apply to them and that's where you've been the voice that may have swayed some to think twice and do better. But when you've chosen to be in the public space with a position of authority and do the opposite of what you urge others to do, you've destroyed the merit of your words and instead show people that "oh it's actually okay to make this exception for myself".

😒

And now the likes and dislikes are disabled? Well Mike, I’ve followed you since your pro/anti vax middle ground reaction video, but I think I’ve watched my last video on your channel. And it really breaks my heart to say goodbye to someone I adored and respected so much, especially someone so heroic to save a passenger on a Trans-Atlantic flight. Stay happy and healthy. Goodbye.

The thing is Dr Mike, U will get forgiven but not forgotten. Its ok to make mistakes. not an issue as everyone's involved is safe. but our every mistakes comes with hefty price. Though ur forgiven, u probally lost all the trust and respect to some, Hopefully u will recover it soon. I wish u all the best in life👍

As much as everyone is bashing him saying his apology wasn’t sincere or why is this not on his main channel yes he’s a health care professional but he’s also a human and humans are careless regardless of the profession you’re in ok he had a party and didn’t follow safety guidelines are we all gunna stand there and say we’ve been following these guidelines perfectly ourselves?

Okay... after looking up pictures from the incident I have to say I’ve lost a lot of respect and trust in him

Live your life

Dissapointed

Why this is still not on main channel

I'm understand it's his life and everything, do whatever you want, even parties.. but when he says to us that we should stay at home, while he does not respect that, does the opposite, so he's basically lying... I don't like that. No-one does. Dislike

Oh. I see Dr. Mike had done well to bury this fiasco. This happened a year ago and I'm only now getting to know about it. Sorry man but this isn't an apology, its you trying to justify your mistake.

Lmao disabled the likes and dislikes

Video: 4 minutes, probably not a clip. Posted: Clips channel Me: Makes sense

I really appreciate your honesty, it has been hard for everyone especially medical professionals to stay socially isolated in their personal life because they know what the impact may be. Everyone makes mistakes and learning from them and owning up to them is the most important thing ♥️

Did youtube stop showing the number of likes and dislikes on this video?

It takes years to build your reputation and one moment to ruin it. All it takes is one wrongdoing.

Bruh if I get invited to a party on a YACHT, there is no way I’m not going.

Everyone in the comments acting like they’ve never made a mistake in their lives. We all mess up! The big thing head is you recognize it, and you are striving to do better 🥰much appreciated, 2”we are only human, we all make mistakes

The hypocritical liberal left at it again.

Dr. Mike you're literally fine

there are sometimes that even people who are an example to follow make mistakes and it is normal because we are all human

*Removes like/dislike numbers* Next step removes comment section

Dr mike we are all human and we make mistakes but from mistakes we learn

Don't you guys think that we should get over that controversy and move on? Everyone makes mistake, maybe this mistake was huge. Doc made a huge mistake and disappointed his fans, but he is just being polite and trying to apologize. Let's give him another chance. He's a human too, plus he and others have been tested negative for the virus. Maybe his actions might've left a huge impact on the society, but all of us present here have literal common sense right? People knowing the risk factors of this pandemic are using this guy to enjoy themselves! Even if he didn't make those mistakes there were so many people who tried to spread rumors! Now, He's got what he deserved, LETS FORGIVE HIM AND MOVE ON.

Im not even disappointed for what he did, he is human, made a mistake. I am disappointed because how he dealt with this, just man up, dont make any excuse and actually apologize in your main channel.

Thank you Doctor Mike - I look forward to more of your videos as you continue to be a source of information and hope to those of us who will continue to watch.

I’m pretty sure Doctor Mike, is any other normal human being. He needs time to relax. If he went to a party without social distancing, everyone should’ve been tested to see if they were positive. He is a doctor. He isn’t some uneducated or in knowledgeable person. If he gives so much news about covid, only for you to think he dropped all those advices just because he went to a party, he might as well be a hypocrite. Doctors, are humans too. And humans, make mistakes. Luckily for him, this isn’t a big problem as nothing bad really happened. Doctor Mike should not be criticised for only one mistake he made, when human beings aren’t always perfect, especially Doctors.

So disappointed to first hear about his ignorant conversation with Philip DeFranco about Muslim and Sikh people and then to see his hypocrisy with this situation. AM-posts really teaches me that if somebody seems too good to be true, watch out.

Can't even see like to dislike ratio. Make a better apology and put it on the main channel. Stop being a coward.

I look up to you Dr. Mike! I am incredibly disappointed on all the people who pretend to be by your side, but don’t hesitate in criticizing you and your one mistake. One thing you have done wrong and suddenly you went from their “hero” to zero... I am impressed by how easily all the good deeds a person carries out are pushed to the sidelines by ONE MISTAKE! I am certain that every single person who wrote a hateful comment has committed more than one mistake, but not nearly as many have your courage to say “I MESSED UP”. For that, and so many more things, I admire you Dr Mike.

MAN DISABLED COMMENTS

Guys yes he should wear a mask the doctor professionals even say the corona isn't even that bad. I have family member who are old and ill and got sick with covid they were fine. I got sick and was fine yes people have died but the flu has killed more. Covid is more contagious and you should wear a mask but its really not that serious and we shouldn't be shutting anything down. Its proven to be bad for the economy. Millions will die from economy failure and that will happened if we all keep going crazy over an advanced flu and shutting everything down. One mistake he makes and all the toxic cancel culture already down his throat is everyone seriously that bored?

I have seen the pictures that came out you are irresponsible and I’m disgusted that I looked up too you
