6 Things No One Tells You About Being a Doctor

[@MedSchoolInsiders]

🤔 What would you add to this list?

[@Maddawg31415]

As an MS2, I will say that I lacked the degree of synthesis/abstract thinking that would've made me a killer undergrad student. Memorization was my strength. I got to med school, and I am starting to shine. Thanks to my obsessive work ethic and memorization favor.

"This video provides a candid look at the less-discussed aspects of being a doctor. It's a reminder that the profession requires immense dedication and emotional resilience, but the impact on patients' lives makes it truly rewarding.

Hi I'm a 13 year old with big dreams and this channel helped me so much ❤❤❤ thank you ❤❤❤

@@daktar_saab1366 thank you I will remember this ur the first one who has encouraged me in a long time

[@TheProductivityDoctor]

Thanks for sharing these facts with the general public! There are a lot of common misconceptions about medicine

[@JossinJax]

Wow, that first one is so pivotal and highlights a significant reality I’m currently realizing as I’m studying for the MCAT 😅 Good stuff! Subscribing!

[@MedSchoolInsiders]

You got this!

[@dianne2446]

Developing a strong work ethic and memorization just convinced me that I could have/should have done med school. I do enjoy retaining information. 😂

[@petagayebennett6669]

Lol same, I'll literally study for an exam the night before and score a A+ because I have a great memory

[@ftapon]

At 1:35, the video claims that "half of what you learn in med school will become wrong in 5-10 years." Hyperbole. It's far less than half. Does our anatomy change in 10 years? Chem? Physics? Maybe 10% changes. What do others think?

[@laltumegerssa5619]

What year are you in? Clinical or Preclinical?

[@NO1xANIMExFAN]

i do think half in 5-10 years is a bit of an exaggeration, i'd say that it'd probably be closer to 30%. there is just so much about disease progression and pathology that we have absolutely no idea about.

[@aluminiumknight4038]

Yeah it's bs. Basics won't change in a long time

[@ftapon]

@@laltumegerssa5619 neither. I have a PhD in Common Sense

[@laltumegerssa5619]

@@ftapon Oww okay. I was gonna comment about how in Preclinical year science things don't change much. But in Clinical settings guidelines, treatment options change a lot a lot. Half might be a bit exaggerated but I would say upto 40 % of things will change completely in few years.

Does anyone know where I can find the video of this man doing the impossible and explaining why he WILLINGLY chose surgery, but dropped out. I’m really wondering how he was so confused with his life goals.

[@johnanderson1245]

I’ve been told that being in medical school is like being a catcher’s mitt - they’re constantly throwing stuff at you.

[@annebergwall1018]

More like drinking out of a fire hose, or hoses all at once.

[@impushon]

Dr Jubbal, when you'll make video on Optometry? I'm 19 and new optometry student. I only believe your information when it is about health care profession. Love from Bangladesh ❤

[@112doc]

Smart w/ work ethic= good physician. A professor said, I’l take a resident who gets up at night to see a patient.

[@JT-tx2ns]

Wait what about some classes like medical physiology ? Memorization could not help me and i barely got out of that !

[@seussdoctor9452]

1:41 It's more like some of what you learn wouldn't be as relevant as when you learnt it, right? Yeah, in some advanced fields a novel therapy can complete override the older metheds, but knowing the history could never be a disadvantage, imo.

"Medical doesnt challenge your critial thing but your memorization" does that mean most engineers can be docs but not very mean docs can be engineers?

[@brennengodeen3796]

I’d likely agree to that statement. Yes there are incredibly intelligent individuals in both careers but engineering certainly appears to require abstract thinking. I’d be the first to admit I am an “average” student compared to my peers. I’m comparing myself to very motivated and dedicated people. It’s my work ethic that has allowed me pass my classes and tests. Some would say I’m some sort of “savant” or incredibly gifted person. That could not be further from the truth. Many of us thrive on working hard and sacrificing a significant portion of our lives. I’m My opinion, my significant other is smarter than me as an BSN. She could absolutely succeed in medical school however she wanted a different role within the healthcare team. If you’re pursuing a career in medicine, it had better be for the passion and not the financial incentives. When you struggle or things become overwhelming and far more challenging than you anticipated, passion will be there to save you. I could find many other career paths that could have similar financial outcomes at a much lower tuition cost.

[@BioDeus]

@brennengodeen3796 agree that hard work matters the most. Honestly, my memory is pretty bad but I do good on the critical thinking side (I like to think, as an engineer).

I am sure most engineers will freeze when they see post partum haemorrhage.....

[@bolt7047]

Cool video, it's nice to have realistic look at being a doctor rather the romanticized version

[@remaember]

Please do one with GERIATRICIAN ❤️

[@Everosa314z]

I'm not even in the med school but I can understand that its hard

[@shovanabajracharya]

Practicing medicine is only one career path. Could you elaborate more on this? Most doctors will be doctors for the rest of their lives. They can't simply quit and chose another profession altogether. In my country I haven't come across doctors doing side hustles.

[@MedSchoolInsiders]

Entrepreneur, medical tech startup, medical educator/academia, consultant, telemedicine, medical writer, researcher are some that come to mind.

What about a dentist

[@sumayhahmed265]

Hi I’m currently in first year college and I think I want to go into medicine at uni but I’m not 100% sure, but I don’t know what else I would like to do other than medicine. I know I want to work with children and I want to work in medicine and health care as I’m really interested in the human part of biology, however I dont know what job is suitable for me as I don’t like loud environments and I find it quite chaotic and stressful. Do you have any advice for me or any ideas of what I could do?

[@ttofi]

If u love medicine and have the chance to get accepted into a medical school, Do it. We all have problems or fears like speaking infront of an audience, presentations in class, but hey almost of every major forces u to do these things. U’ll get used to it. Also working as a Doctor is not chaotic.. Depends on which specialty of course!
