How netizens supported Dr Betsy Grunch?
However, one of the Redditors tried to slam Dr Grunch but was unsuccessful because other users showed their never-ending support for her.
The OP user wrote, "She has 1.5mil followers and isn’t verified on TikTok. i’ve recently been seeing her all over my fyp for her dance competition that she’s practicing for."
"Not hating on her, she’s a genius and i envy that she can do what she does for work, and she’s a girl boss… but some people should just stick to what they’re good at. dancing isn’t her forte, and it irks me," the user continued.
Other users immediately showed their support for her. One wrote, "She's doing it for charity and it's not impacting her patient care. I'd have an issue if she was filming her dances with a patient open on the table."
The user added, "As someone who has had brain surgery, I think she's great. Knowledgeable and kind. I'm not really concerned about her style. Female neurosurgeons are rare."
Another user wrote, "She's a badass so she can wear and do whatever she wants in my opinion. Her surfing skills are definitely better than dancing, but it's for charity so good for her!"
Yet another user wrote, "I think she's absolutely wonderful and glad she's able to have fun with her dancing content, she seems like a wonderful neurosurgeon, and as someone who's family members see neurosurgeons and neurologists often, I have the utmost respect for them all."
"She's incredibly determined, intelligent, and seems to have a great outlook on life. She's one of my favorite creators, and she's one I don't mind if she shows off her nice clothes/ items/ cars, she VERY much so deserves every ounce of it."
