[@TerenceThomas]

[@ShaeLovve]

I LOVE YOUR VIDS....lets get this man a ring light!

[@ChristianBCoon]

Aye, I'll put in a little bit of money for that

[@arielchasipanta2237]

Thanks for being so informative and honest for us young people who don't have guidance

[@monikabapna]

This is SO motivating as an incoming medical student! Thank you for such great, informative videos!

[@nanidatie6083]

[@IdeaCalledFreedom]

Delayed gratification is a good good thing. Mature, intelligent people practice planning ahead and delayed gratification.

[@vg5200]

Do a office tour next plz 🙏

[@FacundoMD]

Amazing video ! SO happy for you !!!

[@omniscientnegro6585]

U give me confidence as a young black male really man last night i was crying how hard it is for us to rise out of our condition and im blessed to have high intelligence and supportive mom

[@jamessmith7577]

Anyone can do anything, through hard work and perseverance, good luck on your journey brother 🙌

[@michaeldebeau6917]

Good luck.

[@connorelsner2084]

Best of luck man! I don't know your situation, but keep grinding!

[@davidkas1488]

Dr Webb you are an inspiring doctor

[@gwillis01]

It is important to do some easy and moderate cases the first six months to build up your confidence.

[@Other_Reddit_stories]

You’ll always feel rich if you live within your means

[@sixteen.candles.4644]

yes to this

[@gwillis01]

I totally agree that peace of mind is more attainable if you live within your means and spend money carefully

[@dougsiskin1070]

In "knocking on doctor's doors" I imagine it is important to get to know their patient's histories in order to help them decide what would benefit their patients after primary care has been exhausted; e.g. surgery, therapy, etc.

[@cesarchavez125]

Such an inspiration!!! Keep working hard

[@joshbritton]

Could you try and film a day in the life of a mohs surgeon? That’d be amazing! 🙏🏽

[@dougsiskin1070]

Maybe my case was an outlier. I was on blood thinners due to cardiac issues when I had mohs surgery on my ear and nose. The surgeon, a dermatologist, didn't respond to my email regarding stopping my blood thinner meds until the day before surgery. Not surprising, I had to go to emergency department to control the bleeding. Based on their recommendation, I finished my treatment with head and neck surgery department.

[@ChrisCapoccia]

interesting discussion around saving and debt… i think many people don't think higher income people need to worry about money, some of that is true, but definitely people of all incomes can get into trouble living beyond their means

[@art_healing_marine]

You are amazing. Great video

[@Pumpklown]

The black scrubs looking fresh. Cant wait for mine

[@dr_aaronplummer]

That last statement gives me hope :)

[@bally2203]

@8:12 - definitely true! Not every patient is the ideal patient! Sadly, in some private practice setting, one might feel pressured to treat everyone that walks through the door.

[@funsize198]

I love your videos Dr. Webb. They motivate me. Quick question, is it possible to have a 40-50 hour work week once you're an attending? how many hours a week are you currently working?

[@amnakhan6625]

Just thank you!

[@asiagreen5658]

Mentorship is so very important for your first job become every community need is different.

[@katvtay]

I‘m not on board with a lot of what Dave Ramsey says and does. Your advice is great though.

[@brady1268]

You are the man

[@sweettopz]

Thank you for your videos!!! Will you do a video on CT technicians or radiologist ?

[@elijahmurray6094]

Awesomeness

[@jalisa2207]

An update on your student loans would be great!

[@kylem_]

❤

[@joyces5157]

How well are you able to balance everything without getting exhausted or burnt out?

[@sxsw12]

We should go get that porsche together.

[@antoniowebbmd]

[@AZ-wg3eg]

What are your opinions on the Vertiflex procedure, as well as, seeing non-orthopaedic surgeons performing them to cash in on the craze.

[@phantomsociety1966]

How long does a basic spine surgery last on average.

[@antoniowebbmd]

It varies on the complexity and how many levels of the spine we are operating op but I would say anywhere from 1-4 hours

[@mike112693]

why arent you using your income to pay off debt instead of not touching it for the last 6 months?

[@FarazAhmed-md9nh]

Howuch did you make in ur private practice? I'm sorry I know it's personal but I want to compare it with hospital job 😊

[@antoniowebbmd]

This video talks about salaries kzbin.info/www/bejne/amiYoImgjseUodU

[@LVLV-im3ne]

I am glad you touched on the money aspect. I know someone who bought a gorgeous Rolls Royce. A few months later the pandemic hit surgeries weren’t done & the surgeon was struggling to pay the overhead. The Rolls Royce found a new owner.

[@komaddog]

He shouldn't be buying a Rolls Royce then.

[@muhsalihu]

@@komaddog exactly. I have been an attending for 4 years albeit in a poor country but I still drive a Corolla.

[@Von.Cannon]

You ready to hire a PA to be on your service full time? Lol.

[@tisha4lives]

I haven't started medical school yet BUT when I finish fellowship I plan on ordering Alaskan Seafood that will be my ONLY splurge. I'll aggressively pay off that loan, I hate owing people.

[@jesseawenus1067]

How much has your KZbin income supplemented your income as a physician? Have you made enough via KZbin to live comfortably while you pay off your loans?

[@yaphethtadesse6667]

❤️❤️❤️ never stop the grinde

[@ashfordlarynx9967]

Dr Webb can you make a video discussing the evidence regarding disc degeneration and weight loading/manual labor. I shadowed a spine surgeon for 4 weeks who said disc degeneration, hernias etc. are purely genetic/age-related and that its a huge misconception that lifting heavy weights or bending spine when picking up something increases the rate of degeneration. But it seems that everyone seems to think bending spine when lifting, or loading too much weight, doing manual labor etc. all damages your spine.

[@rmz_ledger4475]

Yeah I hate how people get scared about working out cause they think that it will stunt your growth, when really thats bs

[@gwillis01]

hello dude The question always is: Why should I go to you for help instead of someone else? Lots of self employed people have this problem to overcome: Why should I use your bakery/ clothing store/ plumbing services/ electrician services/ handyman home repair service/ pastry shop etc instead of the other guy's services?

[@Ifeany1]

The Dream....studying for Step 1 atm

[@stephenmadaras2286]

Hey Dr. Webb! I was wondering if you could do a vid on how to set up a CV for applying to residency's or if you know a good place to look it up? I've seen alot of info out there but not much is med school specific and putting it all together has been tough. Thanks for all the great content and keep killin it!

[@SunshineKane1]

Really insightful vlog....thanks for sharing!!

[@josechacon6015]

Awesome! Current medical student plans to enter Orthopedic surgeon!

[@futuredockey3695]

Wanted to know if you know anything about anesthesiologist in private practice do they just get employed by mutiple practices or do they sign to one like a surgeon

[@davidlakhter]

great advice Dr. Webb!

[@Ονομαεπίθετο-ξ1υ]

Great video as always

[@HHSMCJROTC]

Didn’t u learn that u can’t do surgery on all patients in med school or residency instead?
