Doctor Shares Humorous Video on Junk Food Post-Advice
The internet reacts to a relatable video showing a doctor indulging in junk food despite promoting healthy eating.
Introduction
A funny video of a dermatologist enjoying junk food shortly after advising on healthy living is going viral on Instagram. The clip humorously highlights the gap between what health professionals recommend and their eating habits, sparking reactions from users who found the video both relatable and amusing.
Doctor's Cheat Meal Goes Viral
In the short Instagram clip, the dermatologist in his hospital uniform devours a meat-loaded burger with a plate of fries. The video is captioned with a light-hearted message, “Doctors 3 minutes after giving lifestyle advice,” and has already garnered over 358,000 views. The doctor’s playful comment, “Don’t look at me,” added to the humor.
Social Media Reactions
Viewers flooded the post with comments, relating to the doctor’s behavior and sharing their own experiences. One user humorously noted, “This is funny and true… Our advice is good, but we are not moral models. Our job is to do right by the patient, not be perfect ourselves.”
Another comment pointed out how common it is to see doctors at food trucks: “I loved going over lipid panels with my patients and then finding each other at the taco truck for lunch.”
Balancing Health and Indulgence
Several commenters emphasized the importance of balance. One wrote, “80/20 rule – 80% healthy choices, 20% indulgence. That burger looks delicious!” Others recognized the stress that comes with the profession, with one person commenting, “Sometimes we need it to cope with the pressure.” The stress gets too much sometimes.”

Some users also emphasized that following a doctor’s advice is more important than copying their behavior. One user joked, “You must do what the doctor says, not what the doctor does.”
Humor in Health Advice
The post not only sparked a conversation about healthy eating habits but also showed the more human side of healthcare professionals, who, like everyone else, enjoy the occasional indulgence.
