Depends on your specialty but anywhere from like $180k-$300k to start

@JaniVMD can you write in brief please the timeline? So four years bsc, then 4 years medical school and you'll need to take loans or scholarships, then how many years residency or fellowship? I don't know the difference? Given the residency income like u stated was almost $50000 for three years? So after 11-12 years you immediately start earning $180-300??? With the insurance being deducted and taxes etc is it all worth it vs having a bsc in computer science and starting at lets say $80000/year? Appreciate your opinion.

@@krazykara1327 residency is anywhere from 3-6 years on average depending on specialties. The comparison is hard to make because it will be personal. If you want to have more earning years then not going for medical training makes sense. I would not look at going into medicine for the money.

@JaniVMD first, thx for getting back to me. Second, what do you mean if not looking to earn more then don't go for medical training? Isn't that compulsary?? If it's not, then what are the career choices from there after 4years bsc and 4 years medical school only? I understand the goal is not the money and got to have the passion and desire etc.. this comes at a price though which needs to be known ahead of time with the end goal in mind. Really appreciate your video. Waiting your reply.

Also, can you tell us about the match process in brief? What happens when you dream to wanting to be a pediatrician for example but you are instead matched as an internist? What's the criteria for the match?

Most welcome 😊

No it does not have a back pocket

Thank you so much! I wish you the best on your career!

I know! I have considered gitting the Ebene too because I love mine so much.

wow, incredible!

Glad it was helpful! and of course, sorry for the delay in replying, I used Apple Guard

Mine is holding up very well. My vachetta is still very even despite some water drops, the Apple guard has really helped. My hardware is still golden but it does have scratches.

Interesting!

Wish you the best on your journey!

Yes as a resident we have a fixed salary so it does not depend on how much you produce. When you become an attending your salary it will depend on your contract.

@@JaniVMD thank-you sm! And can I know where do you live?

You should go for it! It is never too late! A year or so ago we had a med student who was 41 and she would graduate med school at the same time her daughter was graduating nursing school

@@JaniVMD wow that’s such an accomplishment👏🏾🙌🏾 and super encouraging! I’m really gonna look into how to get started

No, I am in the US

The leather is the untreated one so it changes color over time

I considered MFM for a long time but ultimately I want to be a hospitalist and have more free time so decided against it

Yes it’s one of the best things about residency! It’s not much but it’s enough ☺️ glad to have you here!

That’s pretty neat! And congratulations!

@@evy1341 i would love to know as well!! did you find out?

Hey! That's awesome, can ik where do you live?

Where do you live??

@aisha3005 yep. Just very competitive of course as every school

So as a resident the only difference is that you constantly have learners working with you so there’s a lot more responsibility. You don’t only have interns to teach but also students, other specialty residents, cnm’s, nurses, etc

@@JaniVMD Thank you soo much for the answer 🥰🥰🥰

Yes it is definitely one of the highest but most employers pay your malpractice for you.

I believe if you buy at from LV in store or online they can shorten it for you

@@JaniVMD seriously they can shorten the strap ? I want to buy it so bad but I'm only 5ft

Not really. Most of the cost of procedures goes to the hospital or institution as well as insurance. Doctors don’t usually get earnings from procedures, they get paid after the fact with the remainder after all other costs are covered. For example: if you get an MRI that cost 10k, probably more than 90% of that goes to the hospital or center from there they pay their bills, they cover the cost of the contrast, they pay the techs and staff that run the machine, and the. They pay the radiologist who reads it. Same for a surgery like a cesarean section: if you get a surgery that costs 5k the first thing is the hospital or surgery center takes their take which is most of that, from there they cover their expenses, equipment, cleaning of the instruments, they pay the nurses that took care of you, and the obgy gets maybe 500-1000 from that if they are employed by the hospital. If they are working through a practice the. The practice takes their part from the physicians cut and then they get paid. This is a very simple way to explain that. But this article goes more into how the system actually works: www.forbes.com/sites/jeffgorke/2019/02/25/my-doctor-makes-what-how-physicians-are-paid/?sh=1973f2b51913

The biggest reason is to pay off the accrued interest you have so that when payments resume your balance doesn’t keep increasing. You also may be able to pay off smaller balance loans during this time. That for me was also the highest interest. This is more on if you plan on paying off your loans rather than if you plan on doing pslf for sure.

@@JaniVMD That makes sense. Thank you! Would be awesome if you had a video on all the repayment options!

You would be surprised at how many “attendings” are living paycheck to paycheck. People in medicine dont know how to handle money after being broke for so long. Then they undergo massive lifestyle inflation and forget to pay off those loans and then find themselves in a corner. But by sharing all of this I hope to inspire others to make better decisions when it comes to money and finances.
