Dr. Mercy Inspires Next Generation Of Female Doctors In New TLC Show | Celebrity Page

Dr. Mercy Odueyungbo is helping everyone find their beauty... inside and out!


Building on the success of Dr. Pimple Popper, now TLC is introducing another incredible dermatologist!

Dr. Mercy Odueyungbo is a top doctor in Chicago, where she's tackling a wide variety of intense skin issues.

"It's similar in the sense that we have patients that have lumps and bumps and don't have access to health care, or that were turned away from a lot of medical professionals, but the difference with our show is that there's a little bit of a personal and family component," Dr. Odueyungbo said.

She hopes that her new show will inspire other young girls to pursue their passions.

"I'm usually just doing my job and then I get all these messages on Instagram from little girls that feel like... just seeing me makes them feel that one day they can also accomplish their dreams. They can become doctors no matter what."

The doctor is also excited for the positive conversations that'll come from the transformation show.

"Initially it didn't hit me, but once I started getting messages from people from all over the country, I was like... 'Oh wow, we're really doing something that's making a difference.'"

Dr. Mercy can be seen hard at work Wednesday nights on TLC.
