In an era where stethoscopes are swapped for selfie sticks, it’s only natural for some doctors to moonlight as social media influencers, though not always gracefully.

Enter Dr. Ethel Pineda, who traded medical charts for rumor mills and wound up with more than just a prescription gone wrong. Her recent gaffe—suggesting netizens had a twisted wish list involving President Marcos in a domestic dispute—blew up faster than a botched Botox job. One wonders if her patients, expecting sound medical advice, got a dose of her political hot takes instead.

Is diagnosing viral infections really that different from diagnosing viral gossip? Perhaps it’s time for these Insta-docs to stick to their day jobs. After all, one misplaced rumor and your credibility flatlines—no defibrillator can revive that. But hey, at least she’s trending, right? Just not for the reasons she hoped.
