@@remisica here’s my mom’s advice: if you think you’ll need a lot of work done, find a dentist that has a good reputation and may be generally more expensive just for an evaluation of the mouth (to know what you’ll need done specifically). Not everything needs to be done at the same time, chances are you can spread it out based on what is most urgent and ideally find payment plans for better and more gentle care. Reviews can mean a lot! In the meantime she recommends keeping your mouth is as clean as possible: brush carefully and clean between the teeth and don’t let food sit.

As a Canadian dental professional I want to see this waiting room, it sounds wild

My needs met by a compassionate expert: I'll never forget the nurse who was my first contact when I came in for my first appointment last March to see my general physician. My husband asked me to go for a physical so we could get in there system, and I ended up breaking down about my deteriorating mental health. I explained to the nurse that I hadn't sought help yet because I didn't want to detach attention from people who needed it more. Her response was unforgettable to me. She stood in front of me, looked me square in the eye, and said "Just because there are other problems does not mean you don't have one." She helped me get an evaluation for depression and helped me schedule with their resident psychiatrist, who then set up a treatment plan for me that has slowly been helping since. Thank God for compassionate experts.

This is now one of my favorite stories.

"So I see the Parisian dentist and he says, 'part of the pain is physical, and part of it is mental. I will fix the physical pain, but for the mental pain, treatment is simple. Great thinker John Green is in town tonight. Go and see him. That should pick you up.' 'But doctor, I am John Green!'"

I refuse to believe that when he said "You have two pains: the physical pain and the psychological pain" out of his impossibly good-looking face in his Parisian accent that you didn't swoon at least a little bit. I mean, nobody's *that* heterosexual.

Today I too experienced a compassionate expert for the first time in a long time. It was my therapist who told me she had no idea what I was trying to say while I was going on a longwinded tirade, trying to not talk about how horrible I felt while seemingly talking about it. At first I was really hurt, embarrassed and felt suoer guilty and like a bad person. But then she explained that she saw I was suffering and that I was actively making it harder to get help by doing this. And that it was my choice if I didn't want to talk about it, that I could just tell her. But if I did want to talk about it she would try and help me. And honestly that broke me in that moment. All my life I pretend I am fine, so much so that most of the time I believe it myself. And usually people accept it, but here was someone who could see past that, and still left me the choice of whether or not to deal with it.

This makes me think of my psychiatrist. Most psychiatrists I’ve been to (and I’ve seen many) were just throwing prescriptions at me and then I was out the door. One particularly bad experience I had a psychiatrist basically tell me to kill myself during a crisis. Now though, my current psychiatrist is literally one of the best things to happen to my mental health. They actually listen to me, they understand my history with meds and always make sure I’m comfortable, they check in multiple times a week and during appointments they actually talk to me. It’s to a point where she can immediately tell if I’m not doing well by the tone of my voice or how much I talk. Having a professional that is both knowledgeable and cares is incredible, especially for physical and mental health problems

Being helped by a compassionate expert is honestly the best and I'm happy to say that it has happened to me before. You made me appreciate it more!

This is, surprisingly, exactly the story I needed to hear today. It's a need that was capably met by a compassionate expert, funnily enough. Thanks, John!

I love your storytelling, I was listening to the Fleece story recently and this video gave me that feeling.

He's right you know. Having a need that is capably met by a compassionate expert should be a lot more relatable. I have seen so many experts that just want to get you out of there and move on to the next patient (and I get it that there are a lot of reasons for this but I am not trying to write an entire essay here) and it is really refreshing to see someone that actually still cares. I still go to my current doctor specifically because she has me call her with updates on my mental condition even though she has absolutely no obligation to.

You're forgetting the third option were dentist "can't remember your name" moonlights as a world renowned art thief and dentistry is just his day job cover. He was actually just wrapping up a job before seeing you, that's why he got the cool protag. hair flourish on scene entry.

This is one of my favourite videos in a while. It just made me so happy

Now maybe I've never been a successful author who had one his works transformed into a feature film, and maybe I've never been to Paris, and maybe I've never even met Nat Wolff or Cara Delevigne, but I'll tell you ... I did once receive compassionate treatment at the hands of a capable expert, and then an indifferent and physically unremarkable pharmacist in my home town filled my prescription for Tylenol 3, so ... you know, similar story beats! John, sometimes you and your brother are simpatico, and work together either knowingly or unknowingly to touch on similar themes and advance a cogent point across multiple videos - and then sometimes one of you is the yin to the other's yang. Both are wonderful and lovely and I wouldn't ask for it any other way.

I think this is one of the best stories you ever told us, I know unfortunately it was painful for you but still you gave us the gift of a hilarious story! Thank you!

Thank you John for reminding me that the things we take forgranted are the things that matter the most. Like breathing, drinking water and of course unclenching your jaw.

I hope someone is able to recognize that dentist from your description and let him know how he touched your life. The other possibility is that there are enough Parisian dentists matching that glowing description that it can't be narrowed down to just one. I'm not sure how I'd feel about that.

I laughed all the way through this, but also felt cared for. Thanks John.

The story itself may not be relatable, but the feelings are. Loved the story♥️

I too would also like my needs met by highly qualified, insanely attractive, possibly very rich, motorbike-riding, and leather jacket-wearing professionals

For all the folks commenting about dental anxiety, most places should allow you to have headphones for more complicated procedures - you know if a certain quotable Parisian is unavailable.

Many stories are unpredictable, engaging, and surprising. For me, this story takes all three categories to new heights. Thanks for the amazing story and storytelling, John!

The energy of this video is honestly indescribable.

The least relatable thing here is that you most likely paid less in that fancy dentist in paris than any medical experience here in the USA

Who else is low key jealous of John to have a picture holding Cara Delevingne in his arms, while being in paris. And the best thing ever about is that every other male would be "omg that's the best 5 seconds of my life" while I imagine Johns brain going sth like this "THIS IS SO AWKWARD; GET ME OUT OF HERE" - and I love that

John, for many of us, you are that compassionate expert. Likewise for Hank and all your family and all the Complexly team. Thank you for showing up to your office.

watching this was such a joyous experience
