- Millennials are contributing a lot to the world, and we're not just talking about Instagram photos of coffee. Dr. Daniel Wozniczka talks on how millennials are the key to the future of a better world for medicine.
Dr. Daniel Wozniczka, M.D., is a Chicago physician with a passion for creating real world solutions which improve healthcare for both patients and physicians. Along with practicing medicine, he is currently completing his MBA and MPH degrees at the University of Illinois at Chicago. He believes the upcoming generation of physicians will completely revolutionize medicine as a whole both locally and globally. He has firsthand healthcare experience not only in Chicago, but also in Sub Saharan African, Eastern Europe, and Southeast Asia.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
*"Surgeons are being told 'Hey buddy, you gotta hurry up those operations; squeeze in a few more cases."* I am a 61 year old surgeon in California, and this is completely true. I have been yelled at by administrators for taking too long to perform life saving surgery. Thank god the millennials are fighting the system. I sit here with tears in my eyes so happy that change is coming with the next generation. Doctors and nurses devote their lives to caring for the sick, not to making profits for greedy pharmaceutical and insurance companies.
You guys stood by and let this happen. You should have fought it from day one. My wife is a middle aged doctor. She has to put up with this sh*t because the old doctors abused the system and watched as the big hospitals and insurance companies took over medicine.
God Bless you Doctor Jonathan
@@dilpagalho4306 How could a single, hardworking, doctor--who just want to save lives--fight a system that is fostered by big companies and ten other corrupt doctors? They can't rally at the free time that doesn't exist.
Thanks for giving credit to RNs we do so much
But it is not recognized
God bless and thank you for saving and improving many lives 💜🙏
o.
4th year Medical student who doesn’t have a single failed subject but planned to quit medical school but after listening to him, I’m not quitting anymore, will stay and fight till the end
Goodluck,mate!!!
"Don't let anyone dissuade you from your dream of becoming doctor" spoke right to me. Thank you so much for the insightful talk and people like this guy is what the world needs
Let me dissuade you then. Doctors cannot "change the system." Doctors don't create it. The system is created by Washington bureaucrats, insurance executives, and, worse, pressure groups that demand special treatment for their constituencies. People want perfection, and they want it for free, and doctors get blamed when reality strikes.
no offense but the baby boomer generation that's been running our gov't is not going to be around for very long, biologically speaking. this kind of unmotivated uninspired idea does nothing to help our society move forward. millenials (not all ofc) have seen the consequences of ww1 and ww2 and the trump presidency and all the horrible things that have occured before we became of legal age to do anything about it. we are going to make that change. support us, don't discourage us. society has a way of moving forward. we're all in this together!
I've been a nurse for 20 years, and have worked with this speaker in our hospital. I am so proud of the entire upcoming generation of doctors. I got goosebumps when he said "we'll fight the system". People complain a lot about millennials (i agree they can be a pain in the butt) but this makes me hopeful for our future!
Hi. So glad I ran across this TED talk. He did give me hope. Also glad to read your comments about the upcoming generation of doctors. I worked as an ICU nurse for 28 years and loved the work but not culture. I left almost three years ago.
Take care.
So nice to see experienced professionals hopeful for the future of healthcare like you two, especially after all the years you guys worked. I hope to be as positive when I'm at that point!
millennials are a CANCER to society and that includes medicine. i swear you are ALWAYS on your telephone. your delusional if you think "fighting the system" like this guy changes anything. if a millennials doctor or nurse takes care of me when I'm sick then i might as well have already died. worthless
@ Bertha I've seen your comments throughout this thread. If you're able to generalize an entire sub-population and subordinate them by comparing a group of humans to a devastating condition, then you are closed-minded and you are the problem.
@bertha thank u Bertha, one less patient to think about :)
Premed student here about to start my second year in college this coming August. Glad I ran into this video because it gave me even more reasons to continue striving for my future career as a Doctor. Thank you Dr. Dan
Maria same. I will start my third year as a premed in the fall 🤙🏾
A Williams thank you
Callmeromain2016 good luck 😀
Thanks. I am a millennial and got stuff to prove :)
You can do it! Sending best wishes!
I nearly cried when he mentioned physician suicide. In the book breath becomes air the author mentions how he was not able to save a fellow physicians life when that physician ended up jumping off of a roof top
EDIT: Thank you for the likes and looking back I should have capitalized the name of the book.
Shivani Shastri You can still edit your post to capitalize the title👍🏻
As a Med student, it makes me happy to see that our new generation is adhering to medicine’s devotion to the patient rather than succumbing to the pressures of capitalism. It’s a hard battle but one that needs to be fought.
You look like a ken doll.
Hello borther, actually I am a Z gen High School student hahaha, but I want also like millenials to change the World and especially médecine. I did a lot of research and hesitate now beetween medecine and bioengineering ( with all the possibilities with biotech). So based on this logic of always innovate and create in order to save people lifes in a big scale, what should I do?
"Capitalism", except it's a heavily regulated market with big government.
Sometimes I feel like I won't be able to make it in medicine. Yesterday, I was at a used car dealership/auto shop talking to the man who owns the place. He told me he was a straight A student in high school, majored in pre-med (with an outstanding GPA), and did very well on his MCAT. This man did not get a call back from any medical school he applied to. He was able to get one interview and the doctor interviewing him said he should just be a used car salesman. He actually ended up doing that is the funny thing and is now running his successful business. Listening to him tell me that story scared me. I often have doubts if I'm fit for medicine, even though in my heart I know I am. This speech opened my eyes. Being a doctor is more than just being a good student and scoring well on tests. It's being the individual that is going to fight for reform and fix the broken healthcare system in the United States. When he said millennials are going to changet the system, that motivated me like no other. Thank you Dr. Dan!
Just go to nursing school and become a nurse practitioner. Nurse practitioners have a lot of the same duties of a doctor such as being able to prescribe medicine, order tests, diagnose, etc. Except the schooling is much shorter and the admissions process is much less rigorous.
or PA school. You can later get a doctorate as well. Dont get caught up with titles. PAs, NPs, CRNAs, DNPs, and MDs do a lot of the same type of work.

I'd just about lost my faith in such optimistic speakers. As long as medicine remains a capitalist enterprise, this new breed is merely something cut from the same cloth. Sadly humans tend to default back to material vices. I mean... that's corruption in a nutshell. Sadly no matter how optimistic people start out, how hard people try, it seems sin and corruption of ideals catches up. Sadly on in very few cases of people with a truly strong do we see integrity in its entirety. Well, people can hope if that's all they wish to, and can do.
@@sergiovillarreal3688 I agree! Titles aren't everything. I honestly think "Nurse Practitioner" sounds cooler than "Doctor". Idk, it just rolls off the tongue better. I am (hopefully) entering a BSN program in Spring 2021! NP is my goal lol
I'm almost 30. I can't imagine being a doctor at my age and dealing with the Corona virus right now in the US.
All about will to do...
This actually re-kindle my purpose. I still remember my first day in med school. I was both scared and excited because of all these horrors I heard about med school. Funny thing is I got perfect scores on my first two Biochemistry class because of that very fear. I remember studying day and night with the fear of failing. But as I continued along, it was almost inevitable to not flunk an exam even though you feel like you gave it your all. I got depressed and questioned myself if med school was really for me. I know in my heart that I badly want to become a doctor, but my exam results didn't reflect it. The consultant would say to us "if I were a patient, I don't want to be treated by a doctor who always scores 40/100". There were days when I just break down and cry because I felt like a huge disappointment both to my dreams and to my parents who are actually supporting me. But you know what, I started thinking again of why I really want to become a doctor. That gave me enough courage to continue. Of course it's hard. It will always be hard so you gotta be harder than that to make a difference. That is why every time I see doctors and consultants, I can't help but think that these people have been through so much and look at them now in that white coat. We all have struggles and stories, but it is to make us tougher and be the best version of ourselves today. Someday I, too, can smile at a medical student and say "I've been there, trust me you can make it."
Thanks for sharing your story
Thanks for sharing your story
What a wonderful video.
shane would disown you if he knew you watched amazing, and impactful TED talks in your free time.
omg hi i love you
GARRETT OMG HI
😂this was unexpected:) Hi Garrett😙
Weird running into Garrett in a ted talks vid...
I'm impressed with all that he has accomplished at such a young age ! great video !
true heroes don't seek out heroism
Chilling talk. Very heartfelt and inspirational. Thank you for inspiring us future millennial doctors, Daniel.
I'm an 18 years old first year medical school student who is thinking that I walked the wrong path, this is not a doctor I've been dreaming about for years, time has changed. but I know now despite how pitiful it is to become a doctor here, I know its a great and wonderful work, wherever it is.
thankyou dr. dan.
Nirvana Sabila What don't you like, What was reality vs expectations
What country are you from? 18 is quite young and probably very stressful
I'm currently in my pre-med program, trust me, I can really feel the pressure and there are a lot of times that I just wanted to you know...quit. But I watch these sorts of videos, like this one then I get reminded of one of the reasons why I want to enter the field of Medicine...to save lives. Thank you for the video @TEDx Talks and Dr. Dan! I really do hope that this video would spread across thousands of people for them to be inspired just like I've been after watching this video.
I talked to a physician a couple years ago how was heavily involved with his hospital administration and his state healthcare leaders. He spent so much time working on administration duties and comparatively less time with patients. He said something that impacted me. He stated to the effect of "the healthcare system is the way it is because we as doctors let it become this way." Doctors have 4 tenets that they strive to follow: autonomy, justice, beneficence, and non-maleficence. I believe that becoming involved in hospital administration or in state legislature is fulfilling beneficence. I do believe that it is partly my responsibility to help change the current healthcare system, in fact, I think that all physicians now have a shared responsibility to fix this system. Its not that we need 1000 doctors doing big acts to change this system. We need 100,000 doing small acts which will lead to big changes. The thought of "I don't need to act because another will" is going against beneficence. We all need to act in order to bring about change.
This is one of those TEDx Talks that keep you thinking back on it as it resonates through your life
I'm in college studying for the MCAT now, and this speech is my motivation to keep going. It'll take me years to finish med school and residency, but i'll definitely be fighting the system right by this guy's side
Sofia Gomiza Hi future Doctor Gomiza! You can do it! I wish you the VERY best of succes on your undergraduate studies and MCATs! I wish they had stayed 5 hours and 45 minutes, instead of making them 2 hours longer!
Thanks for the kind words! It's getting close to my exam date so I'm quite stressed. Your positive vibes are appreciated!
Omar Abdul-Malik DHEd, MPAS, PA-C hello I was wondering you said you were in DC is there anyway I can ask you about being a PA thank you.
hey, and how your life looks like right now?
My father had been saying the same thing as Dr. Dan for years. He was an oncologist who loved treating patients, but saw the healthcare system hurt not only him, but also his patients. Happy to hear that the younger generation is finally fighting back. Keep it up millennials!
Dr. Dan is a great example of working through the diversity and stigma that some generations must face. It was often when I was an undergrad that I heard the phrase, “Oh he must be a millennial,” for having beliefs that maybe the older generations do not understand. But in all reality, I believe that each generation goes through their own stigma. As a medical student and millennial myself, I certainly agree that the reward for the years of dedication, stress, and rigor is definitely worth it. However, there are certainly many aspects of medicine that do not always seem to be as fulfilling. Fighting insurance companies to pay for tests that patients need, which they cannot afford is one. Burnout is another topic that causes a young physician to sometimes question why they got into the field in the first place. Many years of sacrifice, away from family and friends. Not everyone talks about the challenges of the journey toward medicine. Once accepted, there is much joy, but also much fear and anxiety as well as the feeling of imposter syndrome. This is where you realize that everybody around you is extremely smart, and you begin to think that they must’ve accepted you by mistake. The daily expectations one has to meet in order to survive each semester, the daily grind to stay caught up with lectures, and schedule time for yourself to relax. It is not hard to understand what Dr. Dan means when he talks about his 24-hour shifts and the rates of depression/suicide that happens to those who were once inspired of wearing that white coat. Medicine teaches you a lot about yourself, it is where the rubber hits the road, and tests your passion and commitment on a daily basis. I still have two more years of medical school and several more years of residency, but what I can tell you is that those moments of patient interaction where you make a big difference in a person’s world; that makes it all worth it. These are moments that nobody can take away from you, moments of meeting people where they are most vulnerable and building trust, listening, and being there. I would like to hear Dr. Dan talk more about his journey of getting to his dream career. What he sacrificed and what he gained as a person. Great Tedtalk.
One of the best and most courageous speeches I’ve ever heard
I'm currently in my 2nd year in pre-med. I'm glad I found this video.
Same! Good luck bud
I’m a Med student from Colombia and we also have troubles with our health care system, it’s hard to see patients coming back to the hospital to tell our professors that the eps (which stands for entidad promotora de salud in Spanish / it’s something like a health insurance) didn’t allow them to take a test, to get some medication, etc. and sometimes this kind of situations make you think about the career; also the long study sessions, those days when you barely have time to sleep, all the stress, feeling frustrated because things aren’t happening the way you wanted make you ask yourself, why am I studying this? But thank you, Dr. because with this talk you reminded me one of the many reasons I decided to study this career and that’s to make people’s life better. Thank you so, so much. God bless you for inspiring a generation of young men and women to change the world. ❤️
I'm currently an MS1 and it's so motivational to hear how passionate Dr. Wozniczka is in his endeavor to improve the current state of the U.S. healthcare system!
This somewhat gives me motivation to love what I am just doing right now studing medicine and I am a freshman. Sometimes I get negative stuffs running through my mind but It won't bother me. It's a long way to go but I will not stop until I get there. To become an asian millenial doctor. Thanks alot
"Medicine is freaking awesome!!"
I'm a level 3 medical student and this impressing video really inspired me..
Really thankful for it 💜
This talk is so uplifting and encouraging. I am even more prouder to be a millennial professional. Wishing you massive success, Daniel.
I appreciate Dr. Dan bringing to light the difficulty of healthcare as a business. I think he makes a great argument for change. The fact that healthcare in the United States needs to be better has been clear for a long time. It is awesome to see that Dr. Dan has a concrete idea of exactly how we can remedy this problem. The statistics he provided on hospitals run by former doctors were amazing! Better work conditions for doctors, and better care for patients, is a win-win. I also love to see that his educational past has placed him in a position where he would be able to actively participate in that change in the future. Here is my problem; I am also a millennial and will soon be graduating from medical school. I want to see the changes in the US healthcare system that Dr. Dan speaks of, but I have no interest in business or running a hospital. Is it unethical for me to want my career as a doctor to be that of a doctor, not a doctor-businessman? I want to see the healthcare system change for the better, but I am not a businessman for the same reasons I am not an artist; I am not interested in it nor am I any good at it. How can I influence the field of medicine toward these changes without being the person that has to give up part of my career to make them happen?
Absolutely inspiring. You’re already making a huge impact, thanks so much for such a thought provoking speech. Hats off to you!
As a young millennial hoping to start med school in a couple months this really touched me on a spiritual level. Great Video!!
proud to be a doctor
i’m currently in high school and i want to be a doctor.this made me love medicine even more
At 29, this bright physician is incredibly intelligent across multiple disciplines. His overall knowledge matches that of someone at least twice his age!!
As a upcoming senior in hs this video has been extremely motivating. I am often told that I shouldn’t pursue a career in medicine because it’s too much work and too expensive. It’s good to see that some people do believe in your dreams.
I’m a medical student in the US and this hit home. Thanks so much for this video and what you do!!
This guy is a huge inspiration. So well rounded and young!
I'm a medical student.. this is so inspiring. Thank you so much dr. Dan. I wish you health and wellness, I wish everyone especially the health workers to stay safe and healthy during the pandemic.
I know this Ted Talk is a year old, but I am glad I found this video, I'm aiming for my associates in Medical Science and I found the quote "those of us that are crazy enough to think we can change the world, we are the only ones that stands a chance of actually doing it" inspiring and "Don't let anyone dissuade you from your dream of becoming doctor" very motivating. I would like to thank you Dr. Dan for providing some insight on today's medicine.
this video makes me so so happy . Even I am a medical student who aspires to change the whole system apart from saving lives. People like him and similar others give me the strength to truly believe in what I think could be impossible in reality. Thankyou so much .
He rightly points out the critical systemic problem which is responsible for bad healthcare systems in almost all countries
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
so true. Which country are you in? I often wonder how healthcare of other countries actually compares to the USA. It's pretty awful here in America. Similar in yours?
Sofia Gomiza
I live in India
The healthcare is cheap compared to urs but it's terribly managed and pro-rich
I think that USA has one of the most complicated systems in the world.
I live in Europe and most of the countries in here have good FREE healthcare systems to their own citizens. I do not have personal insurance of any kind. If I get sick it does not personally bankrupt me or my family for the rest of my life. What is it really worth saving a life, if that person ends homeless on the streets afterwards? Did you really save his life or destroyed it by placing this financial struggle on him?
I am a millennial who just finished undergrad and am in deep conflict whether or not to continue pursuing medicine or go for computer science. Many people told me that medicine is not worth it. But after watching this video, tears came out of my eyes. Thank you for inspiring me and motivating me to pursue my passion.
Thousands of Likes that I want to give to your talk. You are a great Millenium.
This was really inspiring. Im a millenial working towards an MD-MBA as well and it was great to hear this. Thank you so much!
this is the best, motivates me everytime. Thank you Dr Dan
100% it is a great honor and privilege to be at the bedside or in the exam room. If it is your passion and calling, always go for it! We need more passionate doctors to advocate for our patients.
thank you for that speech , i literally had a mental breakdown before watching this and thanks to youtube for recommending me this video.When i first said i wanted to become a doctor the only thing i heard was why, you are going to study for 12 years? its mot worth it and everything else.And as much as i comprehend and understand thats being a doctor is mentally and physically draining I LOVE MEDICINE and want to become a doctor and devote myself to improving the system helping people,although some say that you live once and you should enjoy your life , i will enjoy my life by being a doctor!
This is so true! I HOPE this spreads and makes a good difference. This is the exact reason I am working on becoming a nurse midwife and yes a millennial!
here in the mid of my 3rd year of general medicine and man i needed this , it really gives me hope to push on and not be downed by the system and life
Thank you Dr. Dan. Truly inspiring. Just about to start my first year of Pre-Med, Iam so happy I found this video! I am motivated to not give no matter what those say around me! What a beautiful thing is the art of medicine and saving people. Thank you for the personal message at the end for us young ones who are just starting school. It's truly comforting to know that even though this job is hard, it is rewarding! Can't wait to serve mankind through medicine, and hopefully like you said, the system will change!!! we need that for sure. I am sure I will come back to this video to remind me through the hard times that i can do this and it is worth it to be a doctor to save precious human lives. blessings to you, thank you for being the change.
Scrolling down on my screen and I run into your comment. Just wanted to say, do MD's really heal Diseases that people suffer? The answer is no, they only suppress your symptoms so you can go by your day so every week or so you can go back to your pharmaceutical drug store and provide the Goverment, Doctors, and Pharma Companies a steady cash flow of income. Pharamaceutical Medicine have more bad than good. Doctors can't even live pass 45 years of age before they commit suicide since more than 50% of them are addicted to pharmaceutical medicines. I'm sorry but to me the MD's are only good for Trauma Care, but are Apes on the Loose when it comes to trying to heal the simple illnesses like Heart Burn and High Blood Pressure. My idols like Dr. Peter Glidden and Dr. Joel Wallach who are NATUROPATHIC Doctors actually study the root cause of an illness and have had tremendous success and have inspired me to become an ND. And I'm just so confused why Medical Schools that prepare their students to become MD's tell them that they (ND's) are the Quacks when you guys are nothing but Reductionist.
Hello , please did you see your self in medicine? I want to be a doctor but I’m scared that I can’t do it.
Thank you for this. I will keep on keeping on.
so happy i came across this video! amazing! very enlightening!
My husband works for medical center for a long time as a Vice President. You’re absolutely amazing!!!
Thank you for inspiring us future millennial doctors, Daniel.
What a great talk..... thank you
This was always my plan, not only train myself in medicine and get my MD, but also get master in public health, MBA and investigation. So far I accomplished 2 of those. Medicine is changing and doctors should change and lead the change!
Oh, yes! Couldn't agree more. As an advocate for physicians and patients alike, I recognize this generation stands at a unique crossroads. As a mother of inspiring, hard-working, visionary millennials, I agree the future of medicine is in good hands, and I can't wait to see how their contributions will change the healthcare system at the root of our troubles in medicine.
great talk, I'm impressed by his qualifications. All he said is true , I'm a physician too and my clinics are overloaded with no enough time for each patient. He gave us hope that the change is coming and we all should work hard for it.
Thank you for the message. I thought growing up meant not to dream anymore.
I am in this situation. In a few years I start residency to become a maxillofacial surgeon, and my dad (doctor) is telling me not to do it. He's telling me medicine is dead, that the "good times" are long gone, that I have an unrealistic idea of what it is to be a doctor. I might be crazy, but it just might be a lunatic they're looking for.
pull my wisdom teeth out for me
That last sentence. Is that a Billy Joel reference I see?
some parts are going to die, that's just the fact of the matter because of upcoming advantages like AI. Surgery might not be replaced right away but your common doctor will be replaced by more accurate AI which can diagnose a disease/problem much more accurately.
your dad is right. we dont need you. go back to your cell phone like all millennials
He's right. Wisdom teeth surgery is a scam. Please don't pull the wisdom teeth of millions of children who don't need it.
I really appreciate something that Dr. Wozniczka points out in his talk regarding those who tell you not to seek a career in medicine or state things like healthcare in our country is going down a bad path. These individuals are those who probably do not belong in medicine and would be better off doing something else. My brother’s boyfriend failed to get into medical school 3 years in a row after his last attempt whenever asked about why he no longer was applying for medical school, he would respond by saying he did not like the way healthcare was in this country and would instead pursue a Ph.D… Now there is nothing wrong with getting a doctorate in something else, there is nothing wrong with not being able to get into medical school, but there is something wrong with avoiding healthcare because you do not like the way it’s being run. Right now, we need individuals like Dr. Dan said, who are willing to make changes seen though being a doctor is not always the way you though ti t was going to be. As physicians it is our job to make sure the system is working in favor of the patient, and that their autonomy (or ability to make their own decisions) is respected while we try our hardest to ensure that they have justice.
He brings up the fact that may hospitals are now run by business individuals or by physicians, but that those that are run by physicians normally outperform their counterparts. He states that the difference most likely lies in the fact that those physicians know what it is like to be a front-line worker striving for improved patient care. I would 100% agree with his statement, unless you know all the facts it is hard to make an informed decision that will benefit all parties involved. For anyone who has worked in healthcare this is evident in the staffing shortages, lower wages, limited resources, and often disgruntled employees. All of these downstream effects decrease the hospital or clinics ability to properly care for the patients who are under their stewardship. One could argue that this crosses the line of non-maleficence and being maleficent. By focusing on the hospital and the monetary value it provides we often overlook the reason they exist in the first place and as Dr. Dan mentioned, if we continue along this path then the amount that individuals have to pay in insurance is going to increase while the help they receive continues to decrease.
wow, this guy is amazing, what a great speech, how he gets all his energy to accomplish so much Ill never know and thanks for making us all aware
I am so proud of being Millennials and this video has proved me that the way that old Generations think about us Negatively was wrong. This speech inspired me more about what I believe in myself. Being Millennials is not bad at all but it is so powerful to change the world that we all are living in to be the better world.
i got chills across my entire body as he told the story of bringing the patient back to life, seeing as that he got to walk his daughter down the aisle. certainly helps my MCAT motivation!
"we're gonna be the one to change the system" amen to that
thank you so muchhh muchh muchh muchh ... your advice keeps me going .. thank you doc dan
fantastic talk. Every word well chosen and really getting the point. Thank you and hoping that lots of millenials (and others) can be inspired.
Omg this is exactly what I needed most. I'm just twenty but I do think that this world needs a huge change not only in medicine but in all the health care system. I thought I was the only one who could see this, but this video encouraged me to keep thinking about making a difference. An awesome video that involves medicine and a hopeful future ahead.
Yes but when some billioners run our world, no matter what you say they will put their personal financial interests first
There will be no hopeful future ahead only death and destruction.
chris papa they don’t run the world you do. You make the decision of what to do each day. You are holding the key to the shackles and chains around you, you just need to realize that homie.
Monitor your politicians, be politically active and vote after researching candidates.
Thanks a lot for making me fall again in love of my profession
Awesome!! Am a GP studying health administration. I couldn’t not agree more !!!bravo!!
I am a medical student that will start my residency program soon. I am from indonesia and this actually happens too in my country. Thankyou dr.Dan for bringing up this problem and persude us, the millenials, to fight and chance the system
I wish he was my friend. College can get real lonely... especially when the nightmares of MCAT scores and medical school interviews and acceptance rates loom around the corner.
It's heartening to see that millennials are now appreciating the importance of technological innovation in healthcare practices. They are expected to make the best out of the latest available healthcare devices, and their applications.
amazing speech and i feel motivated
Those last couple of sentences. YES!
I work with residents and it is the same issues they face. Well spoken speaker. I am very proud of my fellow millennial.
Awesome TedTalk
I am a Canadian mother of a millennial applying for residency in internal medicine. Thumb upppp for you!
This boy for president !
I'm studying Dentistry and I'm a millennial, wonderful Inspiration, Dr. Daniel Wozniczka!!
I'm in medical school ...and I'm so inspired today ...
Then, I know you'll be great cus you are inspired by this message this presenter gave because he has valid points and has a good message.
Which medical school?
I pray for your continued success, let us know when you’re done!
Thank you Dr Daniel! Great speech 😘
I love this so much! I want to be a doctor just so I can fight the system. More doctors need to be more like this guy and not trying to keep us sick and push pills down our throats.
So insightful
Thanks for this inspiring talk!
I am a business student planning to go into medicine and honestly? this video gives me goosebumps. CHALLENGE ACCEPTED! :)
It's so great to see something positive like this about millennials!
you know what , after watching ur words ,i have got a new energy the same that was in me at the first day of medical school.
His speech inspired me and made me tear up! We can do this!
"How to not get overwhelmed by the politics behind medicine."
Very insightful. Thanks.
Motivating me to go for an MBA before entering PA school. Seems like a good call.
This is amazing and so true...not only for doctors but other healthcare professionals....MBAs demanding productivity from MDs and other healthcare providers. I am in occupational therapy and this is a major problem for us as well.
THIS IS AN AMAZING PRESENTATION!
This video is an inspiration for anyone. No matter when they watch it.
Thanks alot for that inspiring speaking , you realy make me proud of choosing this chalenged pathway ..
Thank you so much for the insightful video.
I am 16... And hoping to be a doctor and even now I am being told that being doctor is hazardous... But the will to change and improve the world... And my own fellow mates have inspired me to goo onn and give my own role in changing medicine in improving it
So good and so cool i hope together we can change the system.
I'm 20 years old and I from Brazil, and I want to become a doctor. In this country we have a lot of problems with public health, and lot of people don't get the appoiment then needs. I want change this, if I could help one person for day, i'll know thats worth. Thanks for you speech!
I graduated from a med school in one of the SEA nations and didn't choose to work as a doc. I was questioning myself all the time. I loved medicine and caring patients but, the life was not as simple as treating patients and loving medicine. Even though knowing what is the best treatment for the patient, I could not do because of no funds, drugs and services. I better need to work on another side which could be a good foundation for future medicine instead of working as a doctor in the hospital. Thanks for this talk Dr.
