8 Internal Medicine Subspecialties Explained

[@MedSchoolInsiders]

Are you interested in any of these subspecialties? 🫀🫁🧠

[@marlonmoncrieffe0728]

🩸Hematology (or HEMONC) are the only medical specialties I'm only interested in pursuing!

[@naveenbharadwaj3767]

Yes

[@inchyokk]

What's different between dialysis and regular Nephro fellowship? Also what about NEPH crit

[@rickvargas9944]

Nephrology, Heme-Onc and Pulmonary Crit so you want to pleassseee

[@AvocadosJam_]

I have a question. is it possible to become both a cardiothoracic (CT) surgeon and an inpatient internal medicine?

[@Jaanaiohreally]

“So you want to be an oncologist” I’ve been waiting on that one for years

[@newsfacts812]

True

[@osejiebube9063]

Frr😢

[@AdmiralofU2]

I agree with you fully!! But I bet this topic is so sensitive that it will take a long time to adequately explain it without breaching sensitivity.

[@Stoneface_]

Oncology is really tough and sad specialty. Lot of patients won't make it. Huge respect to Oncologist.

[@Mr_Smackle]

​@@Stoneface_ classic pre-med take on oncology. Im very glad to say most people have good outcomes and this statement is ignorant and false. Surg onc and rad onc cure people ALL the time, the problem is when you get to stage 4 its not curative (for most disease sites) and you see heme/onc for non curative chemo

[@AudioTruyenLangQue]

I thought ‘oh this video won’t be relevant to me’ but watched it anyway.. OMG.. I can’t believe how many little gems I could adopt from the video.

[@princessoifoghe7504]

I really have to search for my dream specialty oncology to hear about it like its not frequently talked about and I want to go either into radiation or medical oncology

[@joulesperday]

[@enazzz3]

Can you do a video on re-applying to med school after declining previous acceptance? Whether it be for family reasons, financial reasons, to finish a research project, or get a PhD

[@horangheeeeee]

this please!

[@MedSchoolInsiders]

Check out our reapplicant guide and video: medschoolinsiders.com/pre-med/reapplicant-guide/

[@ricardocorreia5612]

Hey! Can you guys someday explain the combined residency programs for internal medicine. Example Internal medicine/ Peds or IM/EM

[@adityapanchal3183]

Thank you for listening to my request 😊

[@paulm.7420]

Great video, I have one question though: why is your IM character so strikingly similar to Dr. House? He has subspecialized into nephrology and infectious diseases.

[@julesinmed]

That would be because IM doctors are seen quite like the "diagnosticians" of the hospital (even though every doctor makes diagnoses) and they're required to know not just a bit of everything but a lot about a lot! Kinda like Dr House would come up with insanely specific bits of knowledge about the most random things😂

[@ayo5021]

Been waiting for this one ‼️

[@Jazi-g3r]

please do a vido on hematology and oncology

[@deborahsui9786]

[@user-dn5bf2jj2t]

Looking forward to a so you want to be a nephrologist or haematology doctor

[@sigh2328]

What about critical care ?

[@fahad-xf2tb]

What about ICU? Do I have to take pulmo/icu to be an intensivist or I can take ICU fellowship alone ?

[@genghiskhansbabymomma5649]

You can go do icu alone after Im residency, you can also do icu after anaesthesia or EM residency, you could also become a cardiac intensivist or neuro intensivist

[@AnshSharma-j9y]

Can you do a video that talk about how to do self-reflection of a bad exam to do better in the next one or how to perpetuate your success depending on what you get? Suppose I did Active-Learning and still, got a bad mark on a test. How can I determine my faults? What should I do next? What can I learn from this?

[@MedSchoolInsiders]

Thanks for the suggestion. We're working on a article about How to Bounce Back From a Bad MCAT that should have some transferable strategies for you. Sign up for our weekly newsletter to hear when it's released later this month. medschoolinsiders.com/newsletter/

[@loganmcconnell2829]

I noticed Nephrology was the only specialty you didn't include a suggested video to watch for more information. Do you have any to recommend? Or any Nephrologists to follow on youtube/ social media?

[@MedSchoolInsiders]

It's on our list! Hopefully covering Nephrologist next year.

[@Kingshrek123]

who else got the Dr. House thumbnail?

[@lovelylibra7349]

Only here because I head Nps will be taking over Fm doctors but my 1st love a family medicine cause I can see a wide range of patients 😢

[@ayo5021]

Does heme/onc have procedures or is it strictly medication based?

[@HeyItsLonewolf]

They can do bone marrow biopsies and administer medications intrathecally through ommaya ports

[@ayo5021]

@@HeyItsLonewolf Thanks for the reply, that sounds great!

[@shovanabajracharya]

Why won't people directly become a cardiologist/ pulmonalogist, etc, rather than becoming an internal medicine doctor and then sub specialising in these? 🤔

[@holden-caulfield]

Because you can't🙃. These are subspecialties, you have to be an internal medicine doctor to become any of these specialists.

[@Xxxd25]

I consider specialist as a plastic surgeon how is its work specifically in private practice? And which is better plastics or dermatology?

[@marlonmoncrieffe0728]

Dermatology is a ROAD specialty and provides one of the best qualities of life for a doctor.

[@harmeetsingh6795]

So you want to be oncologist please

[@La123x]

Isnt allergy and immunology also a sub specialty?

[@zainabalasadi3789]

[@shelly716]

Is Nephrology the same as Urology?

[@KobbyNewton7]

No please

[@KobbyNewton7]

Nephrology focuses on the kidneys whilst urology focus on the urinary system

[@denmarkbuenaventura4870]

No offense but why does this animated guy of IM look so ominous. Lol

[@MedSchoolInsiders]

He's a character from the medical TV show HOUSE. 😁

[@freepeople091]

That's Dr House lol

[@emilioarmando5457]

Why endocrinologists aren't payed well? Soo many people are ubder diabetes now a days, obesity and mental disorders

[@yvonnesiilo3306]

How can you leave out Neuro?

[@MedSchoolInsiders]

Because it’s not a IM specialty
