Did a half call this week (6-10pm) and I just thought it would be really nice if I could bring you guys along… one common theme I’ve been thinking about recently is the idea that working in medicine is not ‘hard’, especially in the context of the brokenness that we see everyday… I’m constantly reminded that I did nothing to choose the life I have, and if I’m given this privilege, there’s a calling to serve whoever that I cross paths with🤍

Hope y’all enjoy this vlog!!

It's fun to watch what other people do in their lives, just like in yours. Idk but it keeps me calm and entertained. Thank you for vlogging! (But where are your other videos? 🥹)
Thank you so much for watching! Unfortunately I had to remove my previous videos but I will continue to do more vlogs whenever I can!!
london med student here :) as someone going through predominantly preclinical years, I loved your take on how med school isn't "hard" compared to what patients are having to go through. I look forward to applying all this outside of the classroom one day! Your training hospital is beautiful and I wish we got scrubs so stylish!!
Thank you so much for watching!!🤍🤍
Love your reflection. It speaks volumes about how you are mature beyond your years. Medicine is incredibly challenging and it is easy to get disillusioned. But you have such a great perspective. From an adult in my 30s who is trying to battle cynicism while doing law.
Thank you so much appreciate the support for this🫶🏼🫶🏼 also supporting you in your work as well🤍🤍
i totally agree with what you said about us being "normal" is actually something good, and something that we tend to take for granted! i never really realised that as long as we have the heart to help people in need, nothing really seems that hard because of the inner motivation that we all have to make their lives better 😭❤ thank you so much for posting this video!! as a student still deciding to choose their career, this has really inspired me to perhaps study med too🙃!
indeed!! we have so much to be thankful for in our lives that we don’t even realise!! and once we see how blessed we are, from there we have the strength to serve others🤍
Hoping you stay healthy so you can help more people through your profession. Please take care of yourself! ✨❤️
Thank you so much!!🫶🏼🫶🏼
I'm a nurse working in NUH and just want to say that last portion of the video really motivates me to do even better. Not easy to do medicine but I guess needs to persevere too!

CZcams randomly recommended your video to me. I'm a PGY2 (turning 3), although I studied and am now practising in UK.
Some thoughts:
1. You might be surprised to learn that many NHS hospitals don't have dedicated on-call rooms for doctors like the one you showed. We just use the doctor's mess or any random empty office to snooze if there is time to do so.
2. Slightly disagree with what you share about whether it is 'hard'. Indeed we can never understand what our patients are going through, and what they go through is indeed a lot more significant than us. Yes doctors are on the whole more privileged than others. But I think it is still not wrong to say that the path is still a hard one. They can both be true.
3. This wasn't your main point, but as you brought up the issue of 'patient choice' with regard to their conditions. I think it is easy indeed for most people to feel for those with e.g. autoimmune conditions, where it was completely out of their control. I wonder if you have any thoughts on a patient who insists on smoking, despite having severe peripheral arterial disease with one previous amputation, and now potentially facing another? Or a patient with liver cirrhosis due to chronic alcohol excess?
4. Indeed being healthy in itself is a privilege. Many people don't realise this, even myself from time to time.
5. As someone else mentioned, I find it so thoughtful that your scrubs has a dedicated clip for a tendon hammer!
6. Is this reduced exercise tolerance? 😉 (6:03)
7. I believe what you mentioned about feeling 'incompetent' is impostor syndrome, and yes it is more common than people realise. It's just that nowadays we are more willing to admit it. In medical school I was taught to recognise and admit my limits of competence (albeit come up with a reasonable alternative). I thought that was one of the best lessons. If anything, patients should fear the doctor who claims to know-it-all, rather than the one who admits 'I don't know, let me check and get back to you'. (The same applies to politicians.)
All the best and look forward to your subsequent videos.
Thanks for your sharing! Getting back on the question in point number 3🙌🏻
What I would say is that I hope to encourage everyone to have a deeper level of empathy towards anyone who we come across. We have never lived a single day in the lives of these people, so how can we sit there in our seats and assume they ‘chose’ this lifestyle?
I’ve met severe alcoholics on therapy before who (when sober), tell me that they hate their alcohol habit, and they really want to get out of it, but they still drink because their life is just so painful… they were brought up in a abusive home, and every time they drink they just have a small window of escape from the pain in their life… when they come home after drinks, their family members would shunt them (because of their abusive nature), but in shunting them the person feels even more pain, which causes him to drink more… they live in this constant vicious cycle, and me having lived my life where I come from a loving home (in which I did not choose), how can I ever judge?
Therefore I’ve learnt that whenever people choose certain lifestyles, yes there is an element of personal choice and yes they do have to face the consequences of their choices… but I personally believe it’s inaccurate to attribute their lifestyle choices entirely to poor decision making, and especially us (everyone as a whole, not necessarily just healthcare people) who come from more priviledge, we need to exercise more caution when passing judgement but rather tap more into the empathy and compassion that is in us all.
Hope this clarifies!!🤍
helloo! thanks for the vlog ❤
Thank you for watching!!🫶🏼🫶🏼
Finally someone said it 👍
🤍🤍
Hi I’m actually your biggest fan and I wish I could be on your CZcams channel ❤❤
Thank you for watching!!🤍🤍
I’m sorry this is random but you remind me of a mix of mark and fort (thai actors) 😂
I see what you are watching ! aha!

@@fredrinafaureus woah whatcha mean by that ahaha! 🤣🤣
❤❤❤
🤍🤍
why did u remove all your previous videos
haha hmm I was made to remove them unfortunately but don’t worry I’ll continue to vlog and post!!:))
Hi, I already wrote)) that you are a young doctor)) a very emotional video. I have a question. Why did you want to become a doctor, why exactly this? sorry for the bad English)
I chose this initially because it was something I was good at in school, but I slowly found my purpose more and more in giving back to the community🫶🏼🫶🏼
@@krisonsum I judge only from the video, but you are a kind, personable, sweet guy. I respect you and I like you as a person. I respect you for your work in your profession and life. It’s a pity that we will never see each other since I live in Russia. you give me motivation not to give up.
i wanna marry this guy
Dear Doctor! You're so cute. 🌝❤
😭😭
got meet momok at the hospital?
Wud?
@@krisonsum momom = ghost :)
Which medicla year are you in?
Hi!! I’m in year 5 haha my final year
Your eyebag same as mine lol
😛😛
I like your bag 🥹… and i totally agree about the feeling incompetent thingy as a student in a medical field; from my experience, sometimes it gets as bad as being anxious about not knowing if you’re getting things right and i just become too consumed to snap out of it. I can’t avoid it, but it just passes when you realize your classmates are also struggling 😂 kidding
Haha yes… all the best in your work too!!
