IANAD

“I Am Not A Doctor”. Sometimes shortened to NAD in r/AskDocs. Usually used to preface medical advice and remind users that it might be better to seek counsel from an actual professional over a stranger on Reddit, because people often think they know more about medicine than they do[1].

You don’t have to be a doctor to enjoy r/doctormemes, r/medicalmemes, r/Radiology_memes or r/MedicalMeme (though you might have to be to understand some of them). r/talesfrommedicine, r/medicalschool are a little more mainstream and for those who aren’t scared of blood, r/popping, r/PimplePoppersDelight and r/Popping_ are for, well, pimple popping. And because there really is a Subreddit for everything, r/medizzy (NSFW: medical procedures) examines extreme-looking health issues, and the goal of r/MedicalGore (NSFW: medical procedures) is to foster medical discussion and learning through the gruesome reality of the vulnerability of humankind. They’re not wrong when they say this[2].
