    Having a good schedule and family time should be more important to people. My husband worked insane hours as a business owner. He died suddenly when our 5 children were ages 6 to 23 yrs old. We don't get that time with him back.

    Good stuff! I do have a question though-- I've commented before but I'm between IM and Cardiology like you. I do like "flexing the medicine muscles" like you mentioned because I think it's nice to know bit about everything, but one of the main cons for me is the "admin" work where a lot of the time is spent coordinating the team rather than seeing the patient.
    You may have mentioned this in a another vid but about what % of the time on average do you say is spent doing administrative work rather than focusing on your patient?

    • @TheMDJourney
      @TheMDJourney  Před rokem +2

      I think a lot of what most (non procedural) doctors do becomes admin related (notes, etc ). As a Hospitalist I may be seeing pts for 3-4 hours of a 12 hour shift and the rest is a combo of notes, communication with social work and other teams, and managing requests from pts/nurses. Tricky to see what is just admin related.
      I'm assuming it'll be less as a cardiologist

    Great video! I have a quick question about highlighting and underlining on reading textbook/syllabus, I usually underline a lot when reading and it gets complicated. What should i highlight and underline in terms of content in general. Thanks again

    • @TheMDJourney
      @TheMDJourney  Před rokem +2

      Probably would minimize highlight/underlying all together. What's the purpose of doing it? Do you come back to them?
      It may be a better use of your time to take what you want to highlight and write a question in the margin to answer that. So now when you review - you just do the questions in the margins

    Cool, Does hospitalist spend more or less time than primary care with paper work? How many hours? Do you frequently deal with critical cases and death? Thanks!

    a lot more ppl would be hospitalists if cardio paid the same tbh

    • @TheMDJourney
      @TheMDJourney  Před 2 měsíci

      Not necessarily wrong there. But from my experience - cards is more interesting so even if the salaries were closer so I would pick it just to have a more enjojayable career.
