00:03You're here for the Ozempic, right? What a surprise.
00:06People like you are always looking for the easy fix.
00:08Oh, no, I'm not looking for the easy fix.
00:10Save it.
00:11Every day I get another person just like you.
00:13Someone who's spent a lifetime making poor choices when it comes to exercise and diet asking for an Ozempic prescription.
00:19No, that's not why I'm here.
00:20Please, you don't have to pretend. I can see why you're here.
00:23And even though the thought of a shot magically erasing years of neglect when it comes to your eating and exercise habits, it's not going to fix what's at the root of your problem.
00:32Problem? My problem? No, you don't understand.
00:35I do understand. My brother had a weight problem, so I know it can be difficult.
00:38But he got it under control without a miracle shot, and so can you.
00:42I know it sounds harsh, but I'm just trying to help.
00:44Help? You're not even listening.
00:45Because I've heard all of the excuses before. Every one of them.
00:49There's no big mystery about how to lose weight.
00:51All it takes is some discipline and self-control.
00:54I'm sorry. We must have something confused.
00:56My doctor sent me here to talk to you about Ozempic.
00:59Your doctor? You mean your general practitioner, right?
01:02Yes. And she said Ozempic...
01:04I don't care what fairy tale she told you.
01:06No injection can replace the benefits of eating better and going on a brisk walk every now and then.
01:10But she said it's been proven.
01:12I don't know who your doctor is or where she studied medicine, but I went to Harvard, okay?
01:17So I know what I'm talking about when I tell you that the best way to fix your condition is to start limiting your calorie intake and exercise every day.
01:27I do exercise.
01:28I don't mean walking from the couch to the fridge and back, okay?
01:31I mean actual exercise.
01:33I'm really not trying to be mean.
01:35I'm just being honest.
01:36Doctor.
01:37Try starting small.
01:38I'll walk every other day.
01:39And if you stick with it, you'll start to see results.
01:42I promise.
01:42Doctor, I'm not here about my weight.
01:46Doctor Thompson.
01:47Oh, I'm so sorry to interrupt.
01:49May I speak with you for a moment?
01:50Yeah.
01:52Excuse me a moment.
01:58Doctor, I'm so sorry.
02:00I know that you're with a new patient, but these really need to go out right away.
02:03Don't be sorry.
02:04I'm happy for the interruption.
02:05That lady in there is looking for the miracle cure to laziness.
02:09What does that mean?
02:10She's another one here for the Ozempic prescription.
02:13And that means she's lazy?
02:14Are you kidding me?
02:15Did you see the size of her?
02:18No one gets to be that big unless they're lazy.
02:21Doctor.
02:21What?
02:22It's the truth.
02:23She doesn't need Ozempic.
02:25She just needs a little willpower and a little discipline.
02:28Of course.
02:29If she had either one of those things, she wouldn't be in my office in the first place.
02:35Oh, goodness.
02:37What am I going to do?
02:37Doctor, don't you think you're too quick to judge your patient?
02:40She's only just sat down.
02:42No.
02:43I'm a seasoned professional.
02:44I know how to diagnose my patients quickly and efficiently.
02:48And that lady in there needs to learn about portion control, not GLP-1s.
02:53Still, you shouldn't say that stuff about your patient.
02:56Isn't it this hospital's mission statement to be compassionate towards all patients?
03:00Oh, relax, Molly.
03:01I would never say it to her face, but maybe somebody should.
03:04It would probably be a blessing in disguise to her.
03:07I should get back to Godzilla or Gojira before she tries to eat my desk.
03:11Get those out right away.
03:14Okay, sorry about that, miss.
03:16You don't think she heard us talking, do you?
03:24I doubt it.
03:25But if she did, hopefully it'll be the wake-up call she needs to get serious about her weight loss.
03:29Don't be cruel.
03:30She came here for help, not to be mocked.
03:33No, she came to me looking for a miracle.
03:35And I'm not in the miracle business.
03:36I'm a doctor.
03:37Oh, toughen up, Molly, would you?
03:40I'm sure she's fine.
03:41And she's probably somewhere drowning her sorrows in a tub of Ben and Jerry's as we speak.
03:46Don't you have to get those out?
03:49Have a nice day.
03:53Excuse me, miss.
03:55Please don't leave yet.
03:57Why?
03:57Until that quack can make fun of me some more?
03:59No.
04:00What Dr. Thompson said was reprehensible.
04:03And I couldn't let you leave without apologizing for how you were treated.
04:07Oh.
04:08Regardless of what he says, I'm fine with my body.
04:10That's not why I came here today.
04:12Okay, that's good.
04:13So, why did you come in today, then?
04:16Because my doctor said I have to see a specialist for the medicine she prescribed for my situation.
04:21May I see your file?
04:26Patient suffers from PCOS.
04:29Polycystic ovary syndrome.
04:31Okay, sure.
04:32I read a study about ozempic helping patients dramatically.
04:36Patients suffering from PCOS.
04:38Did Dr. Thompson read your file?
04:41Well...
04:41Tell you what.
04:42There's a terrific doctor.
04:44Dr. Wise.
04:46She owes me a favor, and I'm sure she can see it right away.
04:48You will love her.
04:49No.
04:50I've been belittled by enough doctors today.
04:53No thank you.
04:54No, please.
04:55Don't go.
04:55Don't let one narrow-minded doctor prevent you from getting the help that you need.
05:01One.
05:06Wow.
05:09Don't tell me you believed in her little sob story, Dr. Weiss.
05:12Did you really go running to another doctor just to get your magic shot?
05:15Sob story?
05:16What are you talking about, Dr. Thompson?
05:18Whatever excuse she gave you in order to get an ozempic prescription.
05:22She didn't give me a sob story.
05:24But you prescribed her ozempic, right?
05:26Yes, I did.
05:27Why are you enabling her?
05:29You know as well as I do all she needs is a little willpower.
05:32Willpower?
05:33Doctor, this patient has a serious...
05:34Come to think about it, how did you even get an appointment with Dr. Weiss in the first place?
05:39I asked Dr. Weiss for a favor because I thought that you might have missed something when you had a consultation with her.
05:48Missed something?
05:49I told you exactly what's wrong with her.
05:51And I disagree with your prognosis.
05:54I don't care.
05:55You work for me, which means you do what I say.
05:57But what you had to say on the matter was wrong, doctor.
06:00This patient's condition can be helped tremendously with ozempic.
06:03Her condition?
06:03She doesn't have a condition, aside from laziness.
06:07But...
06:07I don't want to hear it.
06:08You're fired, Molly.
06:10Okay, I will not tolerate blatant insubordination.
06:13What?
06:14Fired?
06:14Wait just a minute, Richard.
06:16Molly has been nothing but a professional.
06:18No one cares what you think, Emily.
06:20I care.
06:21Ha!
06:22Absolutely no one cares what you think, Jabba.
06:26I care what Ellie thinks, actually.
06:31Mr. Reynolds.
06:32I didn't know you were on the floor.
06:34Do you know this woman?
06:35Ellie here happens to be my niece.
06:40Your niece?
06:41That's right.
06:42And I just read a very disturbing email from her about how you was treating her.
06:46Sir, you don't understand.
06:48You're right.
06:48I don't understand how a doctor in my hospital could not only be so callous, but negligent.
06:54Negligent?
06:55Okay, that's not true.
06:57You didn't even bother to assess Ellie's medical records before you rushed to judgment.
07:01Sir, I was just doing my job.
07:03Your job is to treat every patient with compassion, not humiliate them for needing help.
07:08You're fired, Richard.
07:10Security!
07:11Get him out of here.
07:11Fired?
07:12Fired.
07:13Security?
07:13This is preposterous.
07:16What?
07:17See you later, bye.
07:23I am so sorry about this, niece.
07:25It's okay, Uncle Joe.
07:27Thanks for the help of Molly and Dr. Wise, everything worked out.
07:31Thank you both.
07:32I'll keep this in mind when it comes time for bonus checks.
07:35There's no need for that.
07:36I'm just glad that your niece got the help that she needed.
