‘Sexiest Doctor Alive’ Mike Varshavski: ‘I Nerded Myself Out Of Being A Nerd’ | Better | NBC News
Pussification of men at its best.
Please marry me and put me outta my misery!
does he look a bit like ryan gosling?…i dont know..
Hello doc help
I’m just gonna leave this name and hope anyone will know…. ‘Gilbert’.
Anne With an E?
Leticia Ines 😂 lol
lol what’s funny is that he ended up dating miss universe. iconic
Ametaf Johora no he didnt..
@laramiaizz boy he did, miss universe philippines pia alonzo wurtsbach
hes straight
Ni tan feo ni tan guapo
I am also work in progress…… But why am I watching this guy…. I am least interested about science
I knew from his name that he’s Russian. I’m half myself✌✌ but before anyone knew he was Russian I could tell from his name
Congratulations
Well he isn’t ethnically Russian if that is what you mean. He is a Ashkenazic Jew.
👍💕
I lost my dad from gbm almost a year ago, I am 14
He’s not only hot in looks but he’s even hotter because he doesn’t have a irritating ego about it, he’s obviously very intelligent and succeeded despite having it rough growing up.
Greater Purpose yes
Im in love ❤
So Hot 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
So humble !! M sorry for your loss Mike ..your mom must be so proud of the young man you are now!
Love this guy. His channel is great
Really inspiring
He’s so dreamy!!
Wow I’m in med School and i don’t wana come out of my comfortzone..i can totally relate
omg he has green eyes
of course coz he’s Russian, many Russian men can have bright blue or green eyes either
I can’t believe English isn’t his first language. He speaks so well.
Tammy K same! I was born in the US but my mom was Mexican and my dad was Cuban, so my first language was Spanish. I learned how to speak English in Pre-K. I’m white with blue eyes so people often get really surprised I speak Spanish. No, not often. Every single time
varun nigam I have a great respect for people that are able to become fluent in multiple languages, especially if they are not exposed to native speakers. That being said, it is quite obvious you are not a native speaker, simply by the grammatical errors.
Dr. Mike does not make the same characteristic errors of non-native speakers, or have a foreign accent, which is why some people are so impressed. Your English is pretty great though, and one million times better than my Hindi.
Is it weird that I have never lived and grown up English speaking country and yet don’t have any particular accent as it is all mixed-mashed due to too much British and American movies and Tv-series..
@Samyam Lamsal No, I’m the same. Maybe our kinds are more prone to pick up a mix
@Elaini Indeed, I had been working as IELTS assistant instructor for quite a while and as a regulatory act, I had to take ILETS exam several times and I have been repeatedly asked after test by the examiners if I have returned back to my home country after studying in America or Britain for which I have give them facts. And they get surprised by knowing how much TV and Internet can affect one’s accent.
Lol that photo at the end of him with the husky is the most random thing I have ever seen
I hate that they sexualize him…seriously ” the sexiest doctor alive” ? Compliment the man and praise him on his accomplishments and morals. It bothers me how much they sexualize this man so openly. He seems like such an amazing doctor with good character…but because hes handsome…hes worth mentioning? Merica…
@woman 23. you’re completely and utterly wrong
RIGHT THANK YOU
He has an amazing youtube channel you should see it
Ok one of accomplishments of him is being hot i guess
Shober Inu It is not the responsibility of other people to adapt to your shortcomings. Handsomeness is intrinsically subjective (i.e. opinion). It can never be proven, therefore can’t be a fact. If Sabacode confused you by not saying “in my opinion” you should look into an English tutor. Good luck!
He was gorgeous as a child – see the beginning of the video 🙂
OMG ! he is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo hot and cute
You are always …
Why are people not talking about his glo up?!?! 🔥❤️🙈
I wonder how he got so good at english.
i am in love with his spirit
You inspires me…..thnx dear dr..👨⚕️
Miracle Arena Ghana
Come toGhana bring all American guys white.
You’re not who you think you are, you’re not who they think you are. But you are who you think they think you are.
very super
Send doctors to come to Ghana.
👍💋💋
He had such a rough start. I had no idea.
1:21 two cutest people on the planet
People sexualize him too much but he’s actually a pretty nice guy.. He’s such a dork 😂 Y’all can go see that in his channel XD
@Gilliana Pangilan
That’s exactly why I watch him and have been following since he started on youtube, he is smart, he is cool, he’s so funny and fun to watch, and I get great medical knowledge!
And, of course he is handsome which makes it interesting to watch! 😎
Pee woop
I wasn’t even aware this video existed. I thought he was cute, but I’ve focused more on his personality.
3:19 awww so cute!The guy carrying him is okay.😂.Just Joking.Dont take the comment to srsly.But the dog is sooo cute though.
Yes he’s handsome but how about praising him for his incredible achievements and morals and intelligence and integrity? Why does the media have to constantly sexualise people before they see anything else? It’s so frustrating and it makes people see his outside appearance before his character which is unfair because he is clearly such an incredible person aswell as his looks
there’s millions intelligent doctor out there. the # between him and them is the look.
Either his dad or both of his parents are polish, hence the last name. In russia there are not only russian russians living. I wonder if he speaks either of these slavic languages fluently
He was an adorable kid!!
I hope he’s not arrogant.
EVERYBODY MAKES MISTAKES….
He has his Mom’s Handsomeness
HONESTLY HIS WIFE LUCKY AS F***
He’s not hot ….but I love how he loves his career…🎈
I just want to see him shirtless
He’s Russian, that explains the beauty. There’s no way Americans can be this attractive, smart and humble.
Phdiva 0890 you just had to be that person didn’t you?
Ok ngl that is just racist ._.
0:23 IM SORRY BUT I DIED AT THAT FACE
Doctor Mike!!!
Doctor Mike:I’m the sexiest doctor alive
Chris Hensworth: OOF
You are too adorable! You will find someone. I am married to myself too. It is hard to find someone who is not crazy.
Rip this video’s audio
I feel like people are trivialising his accomplishments in a way. Sure, I will admit that he is very handsome. But it’s almost like people are ignoring his accomplishments by calling him the hot doctor.
Came here legally!
👍
Mike is love
you can’t even tell he is russian or a doctor
I’m going to be honest… I at first pressed his videos because I thought he was handsome, I want to look at being a doctor, and I wanted to see what his channel was about. I didn’t expect to stay long because most people who would have this title are very egotistical, but then I saw how in none of his videos he even tries to mention his attractiveness or the title people give him. He is very handsome in my opinion and I know that he is trying to take advantage of this title to get people to understand the importance of medicine and the benefits. He might not be comfortable with the title but it was given to him and he is using it to help people. I say that the title was given to the right person if it was going to be given to anybody.
Love you Dr.Mike😍😍😍
♥️💎
I LOVE EVERYTHING ALL ABOUT YOU SO WONDERFUL SO INTELLIJENT SO SMART SO CLEVER SO FRIENDLY SO PEACEFULY ARE YOU DOCTOR I LOVE YOU PEACE YES PEACE ❤✌
His mother is gorgeous!
Can we cast him for the remake of Hercules?
💔💔
Husband material 😍
Get out of your comfort zone😊that’s a nice life advice.
I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT YOUR LIVE LIFE STORY YOU ARE SO WONDERFUL DOCTOR OF THE HOSPITAL OF CITY OF NEW YORK EVERYBODYS IS SO HAPPY WITH YOU LET ME CRY BECAUSE I AM SO HAPPY WITH YOU TOO THANK YOU DOCTOR PEACE YES PEACE ❤✌
NBC NEWS CREW THANK YOU I LOVE YOU PEACE YES PEACE ❤✌
3:19 The woof woof is my favourite part of the video. It is so adorable and photogenic 😍😍😍 . The best looking dog I’ve seen so far. It’s so cute.
Omg the sound quality is so poor
He sounds like Zack Morris from “Saved by the Bell” I wonder if that’s how he started learning English Lol 😁🤣
i bet any girl that rejected him in high school is kicking herself now 😂
He’s the living proof that someone can be smart, kind and hot at the same time.
This guy is one of the best person i saw on YouTube!!! Check out his YouTube channel named dr. mike😌😌😌
Gosh, I can’t believe people sexualize him like that. I actually look up to him because I want to be a doctor too. I promise myself to study hard and be a cardiologist (I don’t know why but the heart is very interesting to me). Try watching his channel though. He has quality videos.
Hold up, he’s Russian?
Get the man a decent mic holy geez
You and your journey is so inspiring 😇. Keep flying high🤩
The guy who was shy is now the best speaker and even at Ted x. Great job Mike!!!
He looks so similar to his father!!
What a kind-hearted soul, compassionate and nice human being.
Coming from his channel, it’s so weird seeing “sexiest man alive.” I mean of course, he’s great – but he’s so much more than that. He’s really passionate about what he does. And funny!
I literally only need confidence in public speaking etc. and NOT be afraid of failure then I finally become that future self I see myself 🙁 I’ll try or die trying!
U are so amazing you are the best guy on earth
Doctor Mike has such an inspirational story. Seriously, stop just calling him “the sexiest doctor alive.”
If you’re comfortable with failure, you’ll be more comfortable with success.
– Dr. Mike
🔥
dont be rude
its the personality that matters not the looks
I basically like the title ‘the sexiest doctor alive’ not just to sexualise him but to also show that he broke down the stereotypical wall of being a “doctor”….its like even if ure gud lookin or hot that doesn’t matter, the main thing is that he really focuses on his duty without any kind of external distraction..
That’s one of the main reason I really love n respect that guy
Netflix is interested to him and wants to offer him a big tv show contract. Good for him
Dude, to be so young, you’ve come a long way.
If this was a female doctor with this title Twitter would implode and NBC would lose its advertisers and be forced to make an apology.
Well Doc, what ever nerdiness you may of had, you certainly have overcome. You’re a great catch for someone. Enjoy your videos quite a bit. The logo on your doc uniform is clever too (dm).
Wait this HANDSOME man had problems with talking to women?! He wouldn’t need to say a word!
His mother was not only a great human, as far as we know, but also beautiful both inside and out.
Also, I’m glad he uses his platform to inform people in a clear and comprehensible way. Great job!
Como você é lindo
OH! I THOUGHT THE TITLE WAS SEXIST DOCTOR ALIVE! LMFAOO
