Comment your thanks for these lovely family medicine residents!☺️💕✨
You're amazing ❤ Following you from the Middle East😊
that third year 😍 respectfully 🫡
Haha I came to the comments to say the same thing lol
I think humility is SOOO much more attractive 🤷
LMAO I thought the same
💀
😂
Just wanted to say thank you all for taking the time to do this! Primary care is so underrated!!
Our pleasure!
What I want to know is how can you still film and edit videos like this 3/4 times a month, while also working so hard as an OBGYN resident, yet you still can get proper sleep and have a social life? And you did it through medical school and are doing it through residency now. You have great time management skills I don't think anyone has recognized you for yet, Dr. Southard - keep it up! :D
Huge respect for FM folks as an EM resident!
I couldn't do high high volume outpatient medicine - all the best to them!
I'm a 4th year med student applying to family medicine, and this video couldn't have come at a better time! I actually just submitted by application in ERAS about two hours ago, which honestly was super scary since I've felt so anxious about my application for so long. Watching this video was a breath of fresh air! I'm so excited to join all the wonderful folks in FM - thank you all for sharing 🥰
All tha best 😎
Yay!! Congratulations! Interview season here you come!!!
@BethWest good luck!! You’ll do great!! My daughter is an intern in FM at the Mayo Clinic in MN. It’s very difficult but she loves it so far!
Have you been matched into a program this week?
@@kkg108 YES! thanks for asking. Tomorrow I'll find out where I'll be for the next 3 years. What a crazy journey
Glad to see there are other like minded individuals who are going through the tough schedule, work/life balance management and a sound ear to provide support when needed. What a wonderful crew.
Really sweet to see other year residents and their perspectives! Nice to hear that it gets easier as far as free time every year. 😊
Thank you for highlighting FM! This was a wonderful and insightful video! ❤😊
Rachel - once again thanks for another great video. I can honestly say I love my PC doctor. I feel like we are a team and she listens to me and is open to discussing alternative treatment options. I’ve been to some doctors who feel like they were always right and didn’t listen. I know my body and how I’m feeling on certain medications better than anyone. I’ve left doctors because of that. That being said, thank you PC interns for the hard work and going that extra mile for your patients. Much appreciated
Good morning Rachel happy Sunday morning and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you
Love this video Dr. Southard thank you for doing this!!!
Thank you for the Q&A!! ❤
Yay! Love this! I’m super interested in both FM and OB so thanks for this video!
FM PGY-3 here, another huge difference between IM and FM is that FM is trained to care for pre-natal to geriatrics whereas IM is trained in 18+ years old. Also, a lot of FM physicians love doing outpatient procedures as well (LARC, colposcopies, EMB, joint injections, skin bx, etc), great training in MAT for OUD (some programs). We are heavily trained in both inpatient and outpatient settings, and some programs do train FM residents to be capable of practicing in both settings without pursuing a fellowship (as mentioned in the video). Love my job, love my speciality and wouldn't trade it for anything! Thank you so much for the video, Rachel!
Hello Dr Mahal. I am passionate about pursuing Family Medicine residency in the United States. I was wondering if I could get some more insights from you regarding FM. If it is possible for you, could you please share your email address? Thanks in advance.
What an amazing video! Made my day ❤
The premier thumbnail looks amazing. I can't wait to see who you work with. They all look smart and attractive haha🤣
Y'all seem like a family ❤
This was awesome, thanks guys!
I started surgery Monday and got to be in 2 sections!! I delivered a placenta and sutured some of the layers! So crazy I want OBGYN too:)
Love your content ❤ everybody is so nice 🥹😘 wish you did more questions
Thank you this was helpful. I would love to see an internal medicine version of this video.
Family Medicine PGY-1! We get to do it all! It’s the best!! 😊🎉
Very knowledgeable and wise women and men..Dr Rachel and Dr Alex would look really good together.. I’m just saying😊
I definitely have to say that a good pcp that is open to your concerns and willing to work with you can mean the world. Especially if they are willing to try meds you've wanted to try to see if the benifits from it could help you if you can give the reasonable answers as to why. I fought to find answers to a rare condition i have and my NP that is pretty much my pcp, has been my biggest supporter in helping me improve my quality of life. I was getting to a point where i could barely leave my bedroom
I'm not sure if things are different in the USA or if the residents aren't needing to mange the inbox/lab reports as much as their staff... but the paperwork/after-clinic work is always there when you are a staff. Labs, messages from the front desk, reminders to order follow-up imaging/labs, prescription renewals... Sure you can be done your notes by the end of the day but then there is at least 1-3 hours of work you could do after already a full day of clinic work. This is why you will see many clinics be 'closed' for 1-2 days per week. So. Much. Paperwork. Especially nowadays!
Hi! 2nd year med student interested in Family. LOVE this video! Makes me stronger in my faith that FM is the specialty for me.
I'm a 2nd year in undergrad (majoring in nutrition and dietetics) and am also super excited for FM, as I just changed to a pre-med track! All the best to you, and I hope med school is going well for you!
It’s a good day when there’s a RS video uploaded
At your service 🫡
Hi Rachel awesome video as always!!! Is it possible that you can do a same video with Pathology residents.
Just finished my family medicine rotation last week. Super exciting to see this video at this time!!
Hope you enjoyed it!

In the building waiting from Baltimore MD 😎😎😎
We just did a paper about why most of students don't choose FM❤
Not be annoying Rachel, but you and Alex would be so sweet together. 😭
Hey! I’m thinking of changing careers and going into medicine. I’m 29, and have two young kids (4-6yo). How much harder would it be to go through med school with a young family?
(I’m separated and we share a 50/50 custody split, so half of the days I would not have my kids with me).
Hello, Dr. Southard. Thank you so much for this insightful video. I am passionate about pursuing a Family Medicine residency in the United States. I was wondering if I could get some more information regarding FM. Is it possible for you to connect me with any of these residents? Thanks in advance.
I've had great experiences with FM doctors. They're competent with very pleasant personalities. I and others I know have had bad experiences with IM doctors. Seems like they dislike being primaries for outpatients. I didn't know their training focused on inpatients. Maybe these people are bored.

Hey Rachel I really need your guidance how can I contact you?
🥰
You all seem very dedicated and warm/friendly. However, as a PM&R doc (finished residency in 2000) for almost 25 years, I am always disappointed when young doctors who are interested in "sports medicine" think that a one year quick fellowship after a FM residency at all compares the way more in depth training specifically in the musculoskeletal and neurologic systems provided by a complete PM&R residency. Unfortunately, PM&R is a very minimally respected or promoted specialty and medical students seem highly unaware of it. Good luck to all of you in your residencies and future careers!!
Why family medicine and not MedPed?
FM has OB and surgery, while MedPeds do not. Med-Peds also more inpatient focused than FM. Med peds are also dual boarded in both internal medicine as well as pediatrics
Was it just me or poor Henry was left out?😭
Alex is a hottie!!
Doctor Guy in middle really handsome 2nd year
Ok 3rd year..
He’s HAWT Sarah
I don’t feel like family medicine practitioners get paid nearly enough for all they endure.
