      I’m an anesthesiologist.
      It’s a lousy field to go into. The pay is good - although there are certainly much higher-paying fields - and there are some upsides to the field.
      However: you went to medical school to become a physician. Most of the benefits of being a physician, you give up as an anesthesiologist.
      We are not respected in our work setting. Not by surgeons. Not even by nurses.
      Our field involves very little medicine, and requires very little medical knowledge to carry out. Our work - with very little exception - consists of simple tasks that are exceedingly narrow in variety.
      We have little control over what is done for patients, both in and out of the operating room. In fact, we really have little control over the services we provide. Surgeons dictate what kind of anesthesia services they want and we provide them at their behest, with little or no input.
      We have little control over our work schedules. Surgeons and other proceduralists pretty much decide when we work.
      Very rarely do we ever have to play doctor. That’s the god’s honest truth. Anesthesiologists who are happy with the field are generally people who take themselves way too seriously while simultaneously having little desire to challenge themselves.
      It is simply not a good field.

      In the end, it’s a personal choice. It’s highly subjective. What I like you may not like, and vice-versa. It surely applies to medicine.
      There are, however, some things that are not subjective. There are some very negative features of anesthesiology that most physicians would detest.

    7:29 I LOVE this analogy. While yes, your car can function relatively fine in autopilot, in order to achieve optimal performance and safety, human intervention is ideal. Hence why Anesthesiologists work perioperatively on a case. While some of it is straightforward, it is by no means easy and requires lots of attention and especially coordination.

      * The history of anesthetics
      * pain pus and poison
      and *strange sleep history of Anesthesia
      I can also highly recommend the TV show The Knick
      it’s very realistic and super super engaging to watch
      it’s fiction but close enough to realism that it kind of counts

    Thank you for your vids! Can you explain what you do in the cases where you absolutely have to do surgery with the patient has eaten (ie someone went out for dinner and on their way home, they are in a massive car accident needing immediate trauma surgery). Obviously it is ideal that patients not have a full stomach and why they are told not to eat before scheduled surgeries, but I was just curious about emergencies where you still have to proceed. What kinds of things do you do to decrease the risks associated with surgery under these circumstances?

    Im unsure of who to go to for more information about this field, hence why Im watching videos about it on youtube. I want to go into Anesthesiology, Im working on my bachelors right now and I work part-time in retail. Id like to get my foot in the door and get some experience with hospitals while I’m still working on my bachelors (and later on in med school). Are there any jobs you would recommend in the hospital before Anesthesiology, to get more experience and knowledge? I was considering a surgical tech, so I could be working in the OR and understand the equipment and routine, but if I get too much experience in one field, would I even be considered for a future Anesthesiologist career?

      It’s an important topic, and the increased presence of mid level providers is the way the healthcare model is heading in various specialties, not just in anesthesia...we need more healthcare workers period. At the end of the day, I’m fully confident in the necessity of the skills of a physician anesthesiologist. Also, I strongly believe that a model promoting MD/DO/CRNAs working together really reduces the risk of burnout, which is high for this specialty.

      It’s never to late to finish your bachelors and pursue your MD or DO. Im in medical school and I have classmates at the age of 50! It’s never too late to pursue your dreams. Also nursing anesthesiology or CRNA is also a great field. If you decided to get a nursing BSN or RN, that’s another option with less time commitment. I’m sure if you start now you will be a CRNA by the age of 32-35. It’s a great investment of your time. Good luck!

      Absolutely not too late. Going back this September for a second degree at the exact same age (26.) Already have a bachelors but doing another one in sciences.

      Not too old. I met a surgeon who was 80ish and still practicing. You can use your education forever. Go for it!
