- Some say technology will replace 80% of doctors in the future. I disagree. Instead, technology will finally allow doctors to focus on what makes them good physicians: treating patients and innovating, while automation does the repetitive part of the work.
Here are the 6 medical fields which will benefit the most.

This guy needs his own talk show! Great content!
Many thanks, Scott!
The key is to become so skilled that no damn machine can replace us🔥🤙🏻
Which is like never!
Very informative! Thanks TMF!
I absolutely hate the idea of human replacement. I thank you for saying all of this. I thank you for acknowledging the use of tools as to extend human ability and not replace it. again, thank you!
Many thanks for the feedback!
The Medical Futurist It is the least I can do! Thank you for the feedback as well!
You say that now but people of the future will be glad to get diagnosed and treated in 10 minutes by a machine.
1.GP
2. OBSTETRIC & GYNAECOLOGY
3. RADIOLOGY
4.OPTHALMOLOGY
5. SPORTS MEDICINE & REHABILITATION
6. ONCOLOGY
I want to become an ophthalmologist. But now even more so. Wow the future is exciting. Thanks for the push brother!
Good luck brother!
@Anita Khokhar Wonderful message indeed. TEchnology can alleviate the discomfort of making an accurate diagnosis and prescribing the right treatment.Ordinary doctors --burdened with an MBBS and MD but not researching and skill-updating --shall be replaced by machines!Excellent!
Fascinating I think inforces life to be meaningful and happy & empasasidi by this chanell
Great content. The music is a bit distracting because the volume seems loud. More videos please. Thank you!
Sorry about that and thanks!
I full agree, however i think that medicine should be open to other areas not the traditional areas. Software coding or medical doctors who code their own software products have a huge advantage when it comes to making somthing that works. Just made a video on this topic!
8 years go, I'm here to see if you're right or not
Amazing video once again sir. I'm excited to see what our future holds. Especially with the crossing of medicine and artificial intelligence.
Many thanks! AI in medicine is an exciting area: medicalfuturist.com/2016/04/05/alphago-artificial-intelligence-in-medicine/
your channel is so fascinating.you should have a million subscribers.I want to work in the advancement of healthcare.what should i study in college,if i want to work developing the new technologies you are covering in your channel?
What about Radiation Oncologists? Have seen many articles saying the amount of residents in that field will be decreased, as the new innovations of technology; resulting in the lower demand of oncologists. I don’t want to get into 10 years of school to go into a dying career.
Could you please make a follow up video? Where are we with these 5 years later. Thanks
Yes, we plan to do that soon.
What about the future of rheumatology, can anyone give an insight ?
Medicine will be more exciting than ever.
I'm interested in Psychiatry. What are your thoughts on the longevity of such a specialty?
DancingwiththeDocs very long if you train in neuropsy
You don't even need fellowship training, the field is expanding rapidly.
No robot or A.I can replace psychiatrist. Bcos A.I itself don't have any feelings. How it can understand our feelings? We need humans to be psychiartrist❤️👍🏻.
anything that has to do with neurology with go through the ROOF! neurology discovery is the fastest right now out of any field. So neurology, neurosurgery, pm&r, ophthalmology will be the most exciting fields in the coming years.
Opthalmology? Opthalmologists don't give a shit about people, all they want is money.
@Zlar Vixen They won't since they're greedy doctors.
@Zlar Vixen Okay, I stand corrected. I admit I know nothing about how money works over there, I just wish that the field of opthalmology would progress faster. Other fields are so advanced and have had major breakthroughs but all Opthalmology can offer is lasik, an invasive procedure that sucks out the vitreous and replaces it with something else to make the debris disappear and a laser eye therapy to get rid of floaters, 2 out of 3 of the things I mentioned are very risky and invasive. Aside from those 3, I honestly haven't heard any other major procedures. I'm hoping for the best for the future of opthalmology.
What's the future of allied health, specifically Physiotherapy?
I covered parts of it here: medicalfuturist.com/future-of-sports-medicine
I want to help translate this to Spanish. How can I do that?
Please do that and I add the translation. Thank you!
What about neurologist
merci pour l'espoir que tu me donne
thanks for give me hope
I'm glad it helps, thank you!
Neurosurgery , cardiothoracic surgery will not disappear in future for almost more than 100 years
Both are already very much saturated.
These two will definitely replaced . Bcos in surgery robots are better than humans😉.
@@Valour-qh9ie Name one surgery that's performed by robots. One. Let alone complex ones like neuro or cardio.
@@rohitroll2119 it's my prediction .
@@Valour-qh9ie What's the basis?
Will biochemistry and pathology get lost to robots.
The Music is so loud I needed the subtitles to know what you were saying.
The combination of Loud Music and a Low Soft Voice is not a good one.
I'm sorry about that. I stopped doing that in the newer videos.
How technology will affect pharmacist? Will the pharmacist job be vanished?
I analyzed it here: medicalfuturist.com/the-bright-future-of-pharmacies/
@@Medicalfuturist Hey you content is very useful can you recommend any course or any material so pharmacist can grab opportunities in digital health/ health care technology?
RADIOLOGY THE BEST SPECIALTY!!

automate medical records
By future, you perhaps mean in 300 years.
H T heard of watson ? I think not
Maybe not all technologies.
Yaaaaaas oncology, my future!!!!! By the way I totally agree with you. Adding a few stuff I don't think robots are going to be more accurate, after all they're made by us! Humans. Personally I wouldn't like a robot to treat me... Anyways great video, thanks!
Public health should also be included
What about health records? Most of them suck.
I want be a cyborg bore being human
No surprise that the guy said 80% of doctors are gonna go is an investor. Total ignorance of how complicated things are in our field
u forgot neuro
Those that means doctors will be less useful in the future ( due to robot)!?
This is just a hypothesis. I have seen a video showing X ray reading by AI machine giving correct results than a bunch of average doctors. It is going to take a lot of time for people to believe that machine works better than their doctors. And also Medicine is not just about showing diagnosis and treating. Their are lot analysis and care that should be taken because every person have different cases and their body work differently. So i think Replacing doctors completely by machine is not going to happen for future few decades. But instead new invention will definitely help doctors for their diagnosis and treatment.
Becoming a physician is one of the most rigorous and intensive training programs in the USA. If doctors are so readily able to be replaced, say goodbye to almost any other job 😂
I don't like the term AI since it implies intelligence, an algorithm is just that, an algorithm, no matter how "smart" it may seem. I wonder how would radiology benefit from this technology? Radiologists exist because doctors needed someone that was an expert at reading and interpreting different imaging modalities, which is what the vast majority of radiologists (diagnostic and interventional) still do. So what would be the role of the future radiologist? Supervising a machine that's making him redundant?
The money-hungry idiot programmers and CEOs at IBM said it clearly, "Watson doesn't need to be better that a physician, it only needs to be just as good"
As someone who is considering the speciality, I find it really naive and borderline stupid of doctors to shrug this off as anything but the demise of radiology.
K Ab and if it is ? Good .. Automation will make the future of humanity brighter
You could argue that any intelligence is just a nuanced algorithm as well.
Very true
I think you're underselling radiologists here. They're practically the consultants for the consultants, meaning people from cardiology to urology, to emergency medicine all utilize the radiologist to help read and diagnose the patient's illness. You can teach a machine a lot of things, but learning how to diagnose a patient with utmost accuracy doesn't seem like its going to happen in the foreseeable future. The reason for this is because machines generally operate on an "if this, then that" sort of mentality. Like if a patient has this symptom, then he could have this illness or these groups of illnesses could be a probable cause. The problem with this is that it severely narrows the scope of illness diagnoses. every single person is different and there are definitely some cases where a patient could possess a certain set of symptoms but the condition he's suffering from is completely unrelated to what the machine diagnosed him with. In addition, I've worked with machines before, and while I don't know what the tech of the future is going to be like, I can say right now that technology tends to fuck up at times. The same can be applied to humans. The problem is that when technology fucks up, who's going to be sued for malpractice? You can't sue an android for malpractice..
x23 Do Cardiologists not read their own images? I believe they do all of the imaging and the intervention regarding the heart. They have mostly taken over the field.
We shouldn't expect an AI. Maybe in another lifetime, but there's no way we can create artificial intelligence yet.
Have you heard of Watson? Not even 100 years ago people said we weren't going to be able to fly for another 1000 years. Have more faith in humanity.
it's already here
It will most likely be in this lifetime. Probably in 10-20 yrs. We have iphone10s now. Think about it.
Devil's Advocate no, it was more than 100 years ago people said we wouldn’t fly for 1000 years. The first flight was in 1903 you wrote your comment in 2017 so it would have been 114 years ago at least (given the comment would have been said before the first manned flight of an aero plane) if you would have said 100 years i could have let it slide but you said less than 100 years ago which would made you over 14 years off the date of the first flight at which point no one would have said “we would not fly for over 1000 years” since by 1914 the first commercial flight took place between St Petersburg and Tampa FL.
I will also ignore the fact for the sake of argument that the Mongol Brothers flew in Lighter than air Aircraft was before the Wright Brothers did even though it was not common eat all.
