What other video topics should I cover next? 5 doctors with best lifestyle? 5 craziest doctors? đLet me know with a comment below!
Where is a psychiatry video, ive seen so many videos now and learned so much about an M.D. but I really need info on my specialty.
What about the most easier to study of them?
Do a video on Oncology
5 craziest doctors! I feel like pediatric (+anything) doctors are masochistic
Lifestyle of a General Practitioner VS specialised?
đ, my mom is a neurologist, she works 10 hours a day plus call, and she comes home everyday and tells me how much she loves her job.
Please tell me her secret to being happy for I also want to be a happy neurologist
id like to know too, im on my 3rd year of med school and really like the idea of being a neurologist or neurosergeon
I want to become a neurosurgeon too. My mom always tells me that if her parents had been in a scientific field and told her about surgery, she wouldâve done it. Thatâs why she pushes my sister and I to go into surgical fields. The pay is also circa 3-6 times higher on average too. đ
Saawan Duvvuri Iâve heard! Neurosurgeon get paid 900k with experience at the most. I thought about it but Iâm worried about how busy it is and how Iâll rarely see my family. Iâm thinking about immunology right now
Ashea E, you should try applying to a few surgical residencies that youâre considering. If you get in, youâll probably feel happy and get a confidence boost. This will also make it clear that youâre good enough to be in that specialty and that you should take it. In twenty years from now, it would be sad if you were telling your kids how you got into a neurosurgery residency but didnât take it.
Future Cardiologist here. Pray that I make it guys. Thanks.
Same here mate!
Wish you Luck.
Abbas KhanYT, you too brother
Me too đ but in germany not america
Aspiring one here as well, all the best
You can do it bitchhh
Dermatologist: my patients are calm , healthy and happy
Forensic pathologists: đđđŒ
Forensic pathos like my patients dnt even move at all or ask questions đđđ
YOU MADE MY DAY LMAO
I want to be an FP.... Not sure I'll get into med school but as a spiritual Christian, I kinda think God wants me to. I just have to work on myself first... 2nd year undergrad bio major. I'm so interested in diseases and how they develop and want to perform autopsies but I kinda want to know how to cure them as well. I wasn't interested in cures until recently
@@lonnisplace1459 Oh wow, thatâs sounds super interesting!! Diseases are pretty cool honestly, Iâm considering studying them myself if I go to medical school, so I can definitely understand why you love it so much lol. Good luck getting into med school, hope you can become an FP someday!! :))
@@originalname241 thanks so much. Ditto to you. Tbh I was content with the fact that the possibility of me getting in is close to 0% and was looking into the next best thing of being a pathology assistant... But then a med school video popped up out of nowhere and now I'm confused. Hope we both become successful. Crossed fingers
Prolly paid their student loans off. That's why they're happy.
EXACTLY đđđ
đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
đđđđ
But if u won a scholarship đ
@Jason H yes same my local hospital is in a city of like 30,000 and needs more doctors so they pay Ur student loans and rent or mortgage
Why am I here? I am doing engineering đđ
Me too, I'm doing software engineering đ
depressed soul u secretly love being a doctor
@@embyrio not secretly, I like engineering and medical both the same, it's just a particular interest that I have made me choose engineering over medical
Same
Why am I here ? I am 8th grader lol
For any young high school students and pre-med undergrads out there here's my advice as a medical student:
If you do not like studying, and learning is something you do for grades as opposed to intellectual curiosity - pick something else. Be prepared to work hard. Be prepared to fail sometimes. But never give up your sanity or mental health for a career. Because if you think you're "dying" with the amount of studying/work and stress you have now, it's only going to get harder from here. Medicine is a profession of life long learning. If this career is for you, make sure you ALWAYS make time for yourself and for your family/ friends.
Trudat
Thanks. I am an aspiring physician (currently in high school) and this really helped me
That's the thing. Sometimes I hate studying because I lose focus. But I love learning and just have tons and tons of curiosity, so I think I'd love studying medicine.
Hi there Dianne. While what you are saying is certainly true, any career/job performed at the highest level requires lifelong learning and continuous adaptation, and simply not turning the tap off. current MD-PhD student
@@probablyahorse1389 bro, I hate Mathematics, but I give a lot of concentration on Biology and since 8 months I have been wanting to learn about forearm and musculus extensor carpi ulnaris. Should I study Medical Sciences or not? Is it a good field?
6 yrs of med school and Graduating next year. I'm gonna do dermatology đ€ haha.. #Mental Health guys, take care of yourself.
đđŒ congratulations
Or u single â€â€đđ
Good luck! Itâs very competitive, but I hope youâll make it đ
Ryl on average what were ur grades? are u an 80s or 90s student?
Congrats!!
1. Rheumatology 65% happy
2. Otolaryngology 60% happy
3. Endocrinology 59%
4. Pediatrics 58% happy
5. General surgery 57% happy
Hope you guys become successful and happy:)
Iâm so happy pulmonary medicine tied at a 57% :)
I was worried that I would be surrounded by miserable people, guess not :)
What about radiology
Where does Anaesthesiology rank?
â@@chandrikakamath270799% happy lmao (just my opinion )
16 year old here stealing some info
Same here
Same
Sameee đ
Sameeđ
same yoo
Itâs my first year in medicine... AND Guys WISH ME luck.. Hopefully future dermatology..
EDIT : guess what guys now Iâm on 2nd stage đđ
I Love Dermatology Best Of Luck BTW I Am Also Preparing For Madical :)
I wish you luck! I am considering dermatology as a cheerer path and was wondering what you do when you're a dermatologist? Like what type of environment do you work in and how do you become a dermatologist?
@@Dragon_prince90 I believe this channel made a video about life as a dermatologist ("So You Want to Be a Dermatologist"), you can find all the information you need there! Good luck!
@@afarensis9720 oh ok thank you đ
Good luck sis youâll need it
I'm just gonna say here that your speciality choice, if you're not at least in the final year of med school, means nothing. People from my year group started off as aspiring surgeons who did psychiatry, general physicians --> surgery, medicine --> radiology. This even changed in the 2 years after graduation, right before you committ to choosing a speciality (UK pathway). My advice is keep an open mind, don't worry about statistics. Choose a speciality that interests you, but also one that you can see yourself doing when you're 40 with 2 kids, 50 with kids in college/university, 60 when your body may be tiring.
Exactly! most doctors say they changed their specialty during residency and it was the best thing they ever did. Although I want to be a pediatric surgeon I still think plastic surgery and dermatology is super cool and I'm not even a sophomore in college yet so Im definitely keeping an open mind.
@@Cowgirlkatelynn why are you interested in dermatology?
@@jamielannister3627 less stress.,high pay, no life threatening procedures, balance between work and family, self employment.
@@surbhiprasad8411 I wasn't asking you lol
best advice! thanks for that
Im surprised with the anesthesiologists, I know its a stressful job but every anesthesiologist that I meet are the HAPPIEST people in the world
Anesthesiologist: I'm high on LIFE (L-Meth)
just no
Because if you survive and don't commit suicide after being an anesthesiologist then you must be one heck of a positive person! Lol
@@StephJ0seph why would they commit suicide?
These comments are hilarious.
I want to be a radiologist more than anything. I'm very anti-social so minimal patient interaction is perfect for me. I'm a visual learner. I hate actually doing surgeries. I want a work balance life. I want predictable hours. I want a low-stress job, and I want to be paid well. It's like radiology was made for me
Yeah but u realize u need to retain and keep strong knowledge of everything u learn in medical school it's not a job for dummies
Yeah i can totally relate . Looks like it's radiology for me too
Medicine is not made for you from what you described đ
same with me,i rlly want to do radiology!
@@sarahdemonte5493 why do you say medicine isnât for her
Whereâs the Greyâs Anatomy fan comment saying dermatologists as an answer đ đ
I still remember the first time they showed the dermatology department in Greyâs and it was a literal paradise đ
Saja 09 omg i'm literally here right after watching that episode lol.
Michelle Omayuku what episode is that
@@aliah147 Brave new world
I literally just watched that episode today :D:D
6:27 yes! These rankings will not tell you which specialty YOU will be happy in. You have to find the thing you love to do and feel called to. You may find your happiness in totally different things than what a majority of people find it in.
OK, 20 years in and I still love Pathology. There's just something new every day and people are happy - That's one of the main reasons that I chose Patology over Surgery or Anesthesiology. A good number of folks in those other specialties seemed downright miserable. For those interested in Pathology, don't let others discourage you - go for it.
Hello switzlady i am a pathology applicant.can you give me your email to contact you
Do you have free time?
@@fatetaker4507 I do now. đI currently work 9-5, M-F, no call, no weekends.
I currently have to decide between pathology and psychiatry. Any advice for choosing patho?
@@glowlikeyou1099 Pathology is getting more and more complex with molecular Pathology, tumor Genetics, companion diagnostics, etc, but still very interesting and also is going digital which gives more opportunities for flexible work situations.
I always appreciate the thoughtfulness and honesty of your videos, and they've really helped me make better sense of the anxieties of pre-med life. Thank you for helping me gain a better perspective of what it means to become a doctor, not just for myself but especially for the patients.
This video was much needed for me. I realized I was looking into these happiness surveys too much, when my own happiness and experience with each specialty is a more important factor. I just needed to hear it from someone else!
Great video! Keep up the awesome work, I really appreciate the time you take to make these videos for us.
The best channel I have ever seen.....
Great research
Thanks for watching
Med School Insiders thanks for watching this comment
I used to want to be a cardiologist so I went and did research at Columbia University's heart research. Honestly, I can see how cardiologists is one of the least happy specialties. As heart research assistants, we were just surrounded with patients who had 1-2 years left to live and always were sent down to ask them for their hearts after they die. Overall, the atmosphere was just death and gloom. I just couldn't deal with that anymore and ended up quitting within the month. That experience turned me away from wanting to become a physician period.
I personally couldnt do oncology. It feels like there'd be way too much death to cope with. You can never save anyone in that field you can only help to delay the inevitable.
You can save some people, some cancers can be cured, depending on the stage.
All any doctor can do is to delay the inevitable: none of their patients will live for ever.
Well, I am NOT an oncologist but an internist/ geriatrician so similarly, I often worked with patients who were at the end of their lives and with chronic/ terminal health issues that could not be cured. I even served as a palliative care/ hospice MD at times. However, I can see why oncology - and somewhat similarly rheumatology, cardiology, etc. - may be attractive to many people.
What this video does not define are the 2 different types of happiness, which the Greeks did: there is hedonia and there is eudaemonia. Hedonia is what many people think of when they think of happiness: drinking, partying, shopping, basically any activity that tends to stimulate our senses. Eudaimonia is a deeper type of happiness and more to do with connection and meaning. Hence someone with a fairly tragic or hard life on the surface (e.g. Martin Luther King, Jr.; Gandhi, Galileo, etc. at times) can still feel "happy" but in a different way.
I really enjoyed being able to help people function better, makes their lives a little easier, and help them increase their quality of life even as I (or anyone else for that matter) could not extend their lives or cure them. On the other side, I learned a lot from my patients about what makes life meaningful and fulfilled. Far from being gloomy, palliative medicine/ hospice was actually hopeful. The hope wasn't necessarily about being cured or getting better necessarily but having the ability to spend time with those one loved, feeling gratitude for the years one had, etc. Some oncologists probably feel the same way.
(Also, as the other commenter noted, there are some cancers which a curable and others that are quite manageable. For example Hodgkin's lymphoma and testicular cancer. I'd also add that a) medicine is wide enough to fit all kinds of interests, b) personalities associated with different specialties - the people you are around - can also impact happiness (e.g. the first internal med rotation I did, I was immediately deemed/ welcomed to be an internist by my peers and teachers), and c) the organization/ environment where you work impacts happiness. I worked hard but my last position had no call and I controlled my own schedule.)
I work in oncology as as a PN and omg I love my job. It so rewarding, and not as many deaths as you think. You really get to build a connection with people and seeing them through their journey is inspiring.
I would want only the ones who have their heart in it to do it. Itâs not easy losing a family member because of it. It was really difficult.
Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. I don't mean to be melodramatic but I just feel like *no one* understands me, not friends, not family. It always feels like I'm not allowed to complain or have feelings or complain about something. It's like in an ideal situation I might come home and say something like "Ugh my back was hurting all day it was so hard." The normal reaction should be something like "I'm sorry to hear that, why don't you rest a little. I know it's hard but you are doing great" But apparently that's just too much to ask for. It's always "you aren't doing anything special, everyone else is doing it, get over it, it doesn't matter." Hearing you guys be so comforting was a relief. Thank you so much. Jazak Allah.
Youâre a huge inspiration Dr.Jubbal I have gained a lot from your videos thank you!
As a aspiring urologist I am so excited for my journey!!
Thank you for your work, Dr. Jubbal.
I'm going to start studying biomed at uOttawa next year, and your work is helping me be inspired and have the right tools to study my way into medicine. (Your ANKI tutorials are great for my french class!)
Very interesting video! still going into ob/gyn :D
I especially look forward to delivering babies, performing ultrasound exams, manage emergencies and later settling down in my own outpatient clinic to accompany my patients throughout their life until I retire
I like the positivity I find around here. Keep it upđȘ
Medicine truly is a life changing experience that I would love to go thru again in my reincarnation
Plan to go into pediatrics! Wish you all future doctors and current doctors the best!
Itâs pretty awesome being a hospitalist at a community hospital. Depending on what youâre comfortable with and your training/credentials, if youre family med you can potentially be a hospitalist, round in the icu, and see newborns and peds admits.
I inspire to be an iconic developmental paediatrician in my country and I hope this channel can help guide me with that dream. Interacting with autistic children is just joy in the purest form
This is really helpful for me now as a 14 year old, I can only imagine, if I really go to med school, how helpful will be in the future
I was near the top of my class, so had many options. For me the decision came down to whether my priorities were optimizing income or doing work I enjoyed. I chose the latter and enjoyed 20 wonderful years in pediatrics. After that I took the opportunity to join FDA as a medical officer⊠in dermatology. I find the work interesting and rewarding, and the work-life balance is much better than clinical practice.
How were you able to switch specialties?
I didnât change specialties. At FDA being trained in a primary care specialty allows you to work in most of the new drug review divisions. When I joined FDA, Dermatology needed review staff and I liked the people I met during the interview. So I was happy when they offered me a position.
As a private practice MD, or academic practice? Any thoughts on those two categories? :)
what didnt you enjoy about pediatrics?
These videos build more of a future for me than school doesđ€
I would like to recommend you to make video about Cardiac Surgery vs Cardiology. There are so many new graduates interested for choosing Heart medicine but cannot decide between Cardiac Surgery or Cardiology because today high tech percutaneous deviceses that cut number of Heart Surgery procedures...
Yes please. Cardiology.
OMG THIS IS SO TRUE.
@@reng7280 There's not much of a comparision between these two, because anything on interventional side goes toward neurosurgery( unlike cardio where there are quite overlaps)
Hm is there a differenceđ§
Very interesting! I am an aspiring physician. It is interesting to see the fluctuation between specialties
I fall in love with this channel more and more every day and video
I really want to become a dermatologist and I didnât even think ab it at first it was my mom who recognized that I loved it and then I considered it and now Iâm watching these vids and am even more happy this is truly the one passion that I didnât realize myself and one that Iâm not doing for the money ! Thanks from a junior in high school
Ur vids are the best. I really like them! Future OBGyn here :DD
Good video, highlights why I chose emergency medicine
I can not wait to become a radiologist and make the world a better place đ my heart will be so full. You donât have to be first you just have to be different and better!!!
Brooke McMoy McMoy just do it radiologist can sleep normally no midnite calls...
@@mikesaunders8411 Hahahahaha... yeah... as if... Radiology resident here - nights can be hell - but not as hellish as in surgery... been there - done that.
I want to be a radiologist as well! Good luck to both of us, my friend!
2nd year medstudent here, i'll be back when I become a radiologist XD
Iâm going into pre med biology this fall and your videos are so very helpful, thank you!
Good luck friend
Yes! Me too. I am applying in Canada
Hello can I know what does pre med biology mean is it Bachelor's in Biology or some other?How many years you have to study?
@@reyman7296 when you do bachelor's in biology before going to med school, it's meant pre med in bio. Whatever bachelor you do before med is pre med
@A. D. in America, my daughter went to good college, biology and Spanish double major, study to do well on MCAT, graduate with honors (she was summa and phi beta kappa). If you do well, you'll be accepted (she was accepted by 4 med schools). Good luck on your journey, my daughter has loved the whole process.
I worked at a derm office who was transitioning from paper charts to electronic. I think the only main stressor in derm was that transition and the worry from insurance companies. I think once new derms come in, and there is no real need to transition, I think those ratings will go back up.
Never thought pathology would be on the less happier side of the survey...interesting.
Maybe more interaction with people helps
@@MedSchoolInsiders given my healthcare experience so far I would've thought the opposite overall. For example many in the OR tell me they love it because the pts are alseep! lmao
Rediet Million The job market for pathology is the worst in all medicine. People end up relocating all the time and the salaries are low as well.
@@randommhumorr2443 Nonsense. People have been saying that for decades, but it's simply not true. Because Pathologists are rare, we are highly sought-after specialists. Recruiters are actively searching for Pathologists worldwide - that's why I'm in Switzerland...and loving it!
@@MedSchoolInsiders We interact with people all day, every day: surgeons, oncologists, gastroenterologists, dermatologists, and so on. Oh, and even with patients, depending on your scope of practice in Clinical Pathology/Laboratory Medicine.
An additional aspect of the happiness problem is that most of us picked our specialties when we were in our mid to late twenties. Many medical students are single with no family obligations when they start and often that continues well out of residency. But if you told yourself that you wanted to be a surgeon while you were single and that you could handle the call schedule, if you get married and have kids then the calculation changes. It's not that no one can have a family and work long hours. But how you weigh those things does change.
I remember the OBGYN residents in school telling me that they all regretted not dating more before residency and that they were super aware of the fact that women having babies over age 35 carries risks. Meanwhile, they didn't have kids (most of them were female) and were wanting to have kids but were worried due to time. Again, it's not that you can't have kids over age 35 or that everyone wants to have kids. But the fact is that medical education eats into some very important years for young adults and many young adults don't realize how their own plans will change with time.
Zac G that might be true but just imagine being one of the vast majority of people who have to choose their entire path right when they graduate undergrad or even right when they finish high school. Med students are lucky to wait all the way until their late twenties to decide.
@@corinneobrien6196 I somewhat agree but there is a big caveat. Most people outside of medicine are preparing for a large number of career directions. Physicians who match into a medical specialty are basically locked into a very specific career pathway and it can be very difficult to change. People who are graduating with an undergraduate degree and entering the work force typically have a lot more flexibility with the types of trade offs they want between work/life balance because their career pathways aren't as fixed. I'm not saying everyone else has it easy. But I am saying that physicians often end up delaying many things like family and then lock themselves into very rigid careers that don't allow for flexibility in that regard.
Now I'm not complaining on my own behalf. I picked a career pathway that is one of the more balanced within medicine. I'm just saying that for many specialties (especially surgical specialties and in-patient specialties) you can end up locking yourself into a bad work/life balance before you even realized that you would want work/life balance.
Very insightful, thank you
I am an Otolaryngology resident graduate, contemplating for days on end on academic vs private practice and subspecialty training as a Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon
Awesome video Dr. Jubbal!!!!
Thanks again as always. Great insightful post. I'm going to do ID and Hem/Onc because I hate cancer but I love Infectious diseases.
i am gynec doctor and i am enjoing it with the deepest of my heartđ„°
Practicing pediatrics is fun, depending on your meaning of "fun"
I personally think that all doctors are happy because when they are done their patients have big smiles on their faces
Thank you, video's like these are key
awesome video ! Iâve seen your other channel and I noticed there isnât âa day in the life of a neurosurgeon â , mind making one ? But amazing content dude
Dermatology PA here. Couldn't have picked a better field! Excited to get to go to my job almost every day.
I'm glad to hear that!
Could you make a video on the specialties that are having more technological and technical advancements right now and are good prospects for the future?
This post is really helpful. Thank you sir.
First thing I thought when I saw this "Dermatologist!!â
i wasn't surprised with the dermatology and plastic surgery statistics. they are both notorious for having the less taxing lifestyle. thank you for this video! i want to go into dermatology for only one reason: i really like dermatology. everything else is a major bonus and keeping me here
Omg same âïž
Men i love you're videos , i can't wait for the next one
Thank you for this :)
Psychiatrists aren't super happy but since they're in the top five I'm more confident in my choice of becoming a psychiatrist.
I hope you to become a great psychiatrist. I also want to be a neuropsyquiatrist The way how our brain works gives me happiness and willingness to continue.
My pre-med course is starting next month! I really wanted to become a doctor but still unsure in which to specialize; cardiology or general surgery. But I am not worried since a lot can change during med school so letâs just see :))
Pre-med here! Thank you! Making the decision between hematology or neurology
This changing my mind about being a cardiologist
Many thanks. Your team and you are the best. We wait for a video about the strategies to get into a residency program in USA.
Thanks for watching
Iâm in ophthalmology residency. Iâve yet to speak with an ophthalmologist who regrets choosing the field :)
So you guys have regular hours or no?
do you regret choosing ophtho?
Omg yesss đŻ
Aspiring doctor here!! Praying to make it into Med School :)
Every weekend đđŸ
You know it
I was happy to see gen surg on the list!
Im in Anaesthesiology and ICU. I love my job. The thing that makes work not fun is when have to deal with difficult people or rather toxic. Those are actually colleagues than pateints. If I could ignore and avoid uncessary interactions Im super happy. At work, we have a small group of friends who we could click perfectly and work becomes unbiased and fun though its difficult. We work 6 days a week especially in this pendemic. Payments are pathetic but i havent regret my decision to be here. Theres a lot of good. More than just noble acts. Outside work of course i keep my hospital on mute đ€Ł .
Look, i know i may seem very young. But i am currently in 6th grade, and watching these type of videos. I learned that I actually love studying about Health mostly, and that i want to become a Neurologist in the future. I want to be successful and be in medschool once i grow up :)), seeing these kind of videos, related to doctors, health, or neurology makes me feel entertained. I always click on these type of videos because i'm very passionate about my dream career. I'm willing to study hard just to pursue my dream career, not just for me, but for my family.â€
I'm starting med school next year and like any other prospective student you want to plan ahead but the more I try to research what specialities I'd like to do the more confused I am lol. I'll wait until my clinical years at medical school to inspire my decision. đ€·đŸââïž
Good call! No need to rush that decision
Reanna Richardson God bless you. Praying for your decision
Nothing that interested you as a premed?
I love u
I like u
Am single â€â€đđ
đ Do you at least have a top 3?
đ By the way, you are really easy on the eyes!
I wish I could hear more about pathology or radiology as those are the ones I'm most interested in
Yeah, I'm also really interested in those two specialties. I'm probably a future pathologist!
Same here!
Future forensic pathologist here!
Albert, yes this is the field iâm most interested in currently! Unfortunately there arenât many in my state so itâs hard to get information on themđ
I am a pathology resident. Wouldnât do any other specialty. Suits my personality.
Can you discuss what type of research undergraduate pre-medical students should participate in? Iâve had advisors tell me completely different types of research are needed than what I thought, however the advisors are non biology related. I have been told that unless I create my own research topic that is overseen by a professor that it wonât count for medical school or that other kinds of research are frowned upon. This has caused me to be unsure of the work study/ research that Iâm doing will count for medical school. On another note, I love your videos! They are so motivating and insightful.
Who had become doctor in 2020??? Life of a doctor is a real. Bae of life i loved it â„ïž
Iâm happy that pulmonary medicine was so high on both :D
Im 14 and i rly wanna be a neurologist. Ever since I was little Iâve always liked medical stuff and my aunt is an OB/GYN so Iâve always been around medical tools and would play around with her stuff
Saturday Night Live has a video here which explains that if you are miserable and living at A, going on holiday to B merely means that you will be miserable at place B. That may apply to switching from job A to job B too.
Kevin is so thorough and articulate lol thank goodness he chose to educate and entertain us rather than providing quality care to patients who need him. He would have made a phenomenal practicing physician. Luckily, he may be an even better entrepreneur.
Future cardiothoracic surgeon here.
Just affirming it here â€ïž
Itâs a long hard road, and the work is demanding in every way. The loans are big. But the money is better than 90% of any other job, I go home every night knowing I made a real difference caring for people and itâs still really interesting and rewarding
Inspiring video â„
Hmmmm, I enjoy interacting with patients, I also want to have time for myself.
My first love in medical speciality is orthopedics. But it is kinda time consuming.
I am planning going for O&G, wish me luck.
I would love to study the brain đ§ ! They have to make it enjoyable for the doctors because it's such a important topic.. it's like searching for cheat codes in a video game or exploring the ocean or space. I hope we learn a ton about how our brains work so we can improve dementia and other neurological issues and afflictions. As well as things that can enhance the functioning of the mind. The will greatly improve humanity.
Iâm ready to start premed, and you keep inspiring me !
Good luck

Hello can I know how many years course is this premed?
@@reyman7296 4 years
good luck!!
Speaking from my own experience at the VA hospitals and at the "outside" contractors they send veterans to occasionally, I have to say that urologists and their supporting staff are the most miserable. Sarcasm, insults, disrespect, are their normal way of interacting with patients. Mistakes and cover-ups are going on all the time. I have found that audiologists were generally happy in the hospitals. They have been positive in their attitude and clear in communicating and act like they care about the people they help.
Cardiologists - considering the women cardiologists, generally, they care about you the patient. Male, cardio surgeons not so much. You are not a person; you are just a body to cut up. When they screw up they just say "Ooops," and go on to the next one. Lies cover-ups, gaslighting, whatever it takes to get by. They get paid no matter what happens to you.
Physical therapy personnel tend to be positive and happy. They give you the impression that you can get healthy again too if you will do the work,.
ER personnel are often arrogant and disrespectful. When you have a concussion they get to insult you and make you wait , until you get fed up and go away. Maybe the ER nurse was in the Navy. So what? So maybe he hates Marines. So maybe he refuses to give you the medicines that he doctor ordered.
These days, when so many hospital people are burned out and angry they may take out their frustration on you. If you get mad at them - they may call the cop to come with a gun to take care of you.
If any of the readers think I am exaggerating about the urologists you should look up the Phoenix VA online. There are numerous articles about the 20 or 30 or more veterans that they let die of cancer - around 2012-14. Eventually the director of the hospital got fired. Nothing was done to the guilty doctors.
How can people like that live with themselves.?
Reasons why I want to become a Emerg Med doc, Clock work and I get to choose but the main thing is because I love the fast pace and I like different situations every second.
I am a future oncologist and I guess in my own opinion what matters is what makes you happy if you love the career you chosen then thatâs what makes you happy âșïž

thank you đ„°
Love all ur videos..inspires me a lot!! A small rqst for u to make a video abt orthopedist
I'm conflicted between Psychiatry and Pathology! I thought that path would rank around the happier specialities, surprised to see this.
My daughter hated her psychiatric rotation. One depressed person after another. She's 4th year and going into anesthesiology.
@@valeriedemello1794 I can imagine that it is more interesting for a psychiatrist to work with people with actual mental disabilities rather than people who are just unhappy. It seems very foolish to me to think that a doctor can cure unhappiness
I considered Derm, EM, and Anesthesia for the same reasons. I love surgery and I love the OR, but I couldn't see myself with that lifestyle. There's a reason surgeons say "if you could see yourself doing something else other than surgery, do that instead." I don't get why people never talk about Anesthesia in these rankings. I know midlevels are threatening their field. but they're still pretty happy for the most part.
What is the reason they say that
I'm taking anaesthesiology although I get any other branches...this is because I like the lifestyle of an anaesthesiologist.....i don't understand the hype for dermatology!!
@@anushakrishnan8736 I don't understand the hype for dermatology either I'm considering anesthesiology
Having been in 2 branches for quite a bit..
ENT offers very good work life balance, monetary wise good abroad and satisfying branch.. but sadly in India, less prefered compared to other surgical branches.
CTVS- Name, fame and money, it is a beautiful branch, not many surgical branches can offer as much thrill/ adrenaline rush while operating on such a dynamic organ and satisfaction as results are instantaneous post surgery.
Cons- a major lifestyle choice to ponder about ..It is very stressful, demanding and most of the time your life is spent at hospital/Icu. Even at home you will be thinking about work at the back of your mind..
I was interested in nuero , now Iâm looking into orthopaedics and plastic surgery .
Med school aspirant here btw !
I'm still a first year med student however I already got some specialties I'm interessted in, like emergency medicine, cardiology and trauma surgery.
But I will see if that's gonna be still the case a couple of years from now đđ
I love u â€â€
I like i â€đ
Am alone
đ Good luck!
đ And YOWZA!
For cardiology, you'll have to go first into internal medicine, then hope to get accepted into cardiology program.
@@valeriedemello1794 In Germany you can go straight from med school into cardiology program :)
I literally cannot decide between pathology, radiology, anesthesiology, or a surgical specialty. Obviously, I dont like people or patient interaction. I originally fell in love with path, but then i thought oh wait rad and anesthesiology look pretty sick i want to learn all that too! Im almost taking surgery off my list though because i am not ok with those long work hours. Even though I LOVE being in the OR and am always itching to get my hands in there, i simply value my free time way too much..
Hope I can decide!
What did you decide ??
Amazing video đ
I always follow and I love checking whatâs new on this channel because my dream is to enter into US med school
