From medical doctor to house doctor.
Meaghan Martin, a pediatric emergency room physician in Florida, is yet again going viral on TikTok.
Her health tips have gone viral in the past, and so did her quintessentially “Florida” commute to work after Hurricane Debby when she used an inflatable paddleboard to avoid water in her flooded neighborhood.
This time, she’s going viral for sharing tips on a topic she, unfortunately, knows a lot about: what to do after your home floods. Her Shore Acres home in St. Petersburg, Florida, flooded after Hurricanes Eta, Idalia, and now Helene.
“We got around 4 feet,” said Martin. “This was by far the worst. We haven’t seen anything like this in the past.”

Her recent TikToks explore topics like drywall removal, mold prevention, how to document your damage, and protect yourself and others.
“You can protect unsuspecting Facebook Marketplace buyers by destroying your stuff because the pickers are going to take it and put it online to sell to other people,” she instructed in one video.
