I’m A Doctor Now!: Stories About Self-Diagnosis

Hosted by Sarah Burton and Allie Kokesh
Featuring Anita Flores, Nicole Pasquale and Luc Rioul

Come discover what health anxieties keep New York comedians up all night!

At I’m A Doctor Now!, hypochondriacs and victims of terrible insurance can relate to comedic stories of healthcare nightmares, ranging from homeopathic cures for yeast infections to at-home surgery. Storytellers will share their experiences in self-diagnosis before a panel of actual doctors — who you can try to corner after the show for opinions on your rash! — but by the end of the night, only one comedian will receive an honorary white coat and proudly say, “I’m a doctor now!” Hosted by Sarah Burton and Allie Kokesh, and featuring Anita Flores, Nicole Pasquale and Luc Rioul.

Allie Kokesh is the co-creator and co-star of the improvised science-fiction podcast Mission to Zyxx. Formerly she wrote, performed and directed video content for Mic.com. Kokesh currently receives health benefits through Netflix.

Sarah Burton is a writer and performer at the Upright Citizens Brigade. You can watch her at the UCB on Harold Night or on Buzzfeed’s Youtube channel — teaching her dog to play basketball and walking through New York in a bubble. Sarah has spent 100+ hours reading WebMD.
