You're a hero. My mother died in Vanderbilt from brain surgery. She was 40 I was 21. Part of me died with her but God has sustained me and blessed me. She said we will meet again in heaven.

[@shubhasishbharadwaj9220]

GOD IS WITH YOU. YOUR MOM IS WITHIN YOU❤

[@adaokoro-oji9733]

It's well! God is your everything because there's always Victory in Him!!!

[@Dera07]

Amen

[@parimalaseebi1106]

God bless you with a long healthy life sir 🙏🙏

[@realbambi]

The longest residency program to operate for 1-5 hours.. hard work pays off! Thank you for what you do

[@devianadkar7969]

You seem so shy and humble. Someone who fufils every role in his life perfectly. I have never appreciated healthcare workers as much as i do now. So many who become social media famous and can quit but money was never their goal. Enriching lives and the desire to help is what keeps people like you in the medical field. Hope you get the sucess you deserve on social media and continue to be the brilliant surgeon you are. I love your shorts.

[@kathychavez8117]

Thank you doctor, for what you do❤

[@AzhagiyaTamilMagalChajvini]

Shy?

[@RG-hf4et]

I wouldn't say shy. I'd say reserved & humble. 😊

[@winston9971]

You are a true hero. Thank you for all the work you have done to get where you are today. helping people.

[@doctorhoeflinger]

[@user-dy3oh7ys1m]

[@joansmith5870]

Thanks for giving us a glimpse in what a neurosurgeon does.

[@0d3tari.loverrr]

This is my dream 15 years of school and dedication can’t wait to prove all the people that doubted me wrong

[@sell_the_team_arte8389]

All my respect for all the neurosurgeons!

[@nansfam8534]

You sound like a caring Doctor from the vids I've watched. I was very touched by your tender reaction when you lost your Mom. ❤

[@doctorhoeflinger]

Thank you 😊

[@kiki_asthestic]

I want to be a neurosurgeon when im older too because I've always been so fascinated about the brain!

[@lethabrooks9112]

Thankful for Neurosurgeons. Had a Cervical Fusion in June and feel so much better since then.

[@florencepratt389]

[@loveofthegospel8514]

The crazy part is that you have only one alarm time!!!! I have to put, 5:00, 5:05, 5:10, 5:15 and so on just to get myself started to decide if to snooze on 5:30am!!!!

[@mchammer32]

That seems like torture. I have one alarm. I cant possibly bring myself to wake up and fall asleep 3 -5 times before actually getting up

[@rosieg7389]

thank you for being a neurosurgeon to all the people that you've saved

[@fjhisd]

Genuinely a life with sacrifice and honor. A sincere thank you from all human life to those in healthcare and particularly physicians.

[@deborahwilliams1507]

I had a eight hour surgery. I'm still alive. Many years later. I give thanks to my team. I was in ICU after surgery. I heard nurse say you shaved your beard for her? I gave him words of wisdom and I lived and he listen. I know I made his Neuro surgery a success because he listened to me! I watch this because it allowed me live a full life .❤️

[@prihaps]

Omg you seem like such a sweetie pie to work with and to have as a doctor!

[@jasdipkahlon7002]

You are saving so many lives.

[@lollymartinez2775]

Super Gifted!...Thank you.

[@southerngirl7425]

I'm in awe of your speciality....ive had L4 and L5 rupture 4 times...im determined Not to fuse.. but time'll tell....my surgeon's gifted in surgery but has 0 bedside manner... TBH I'd rather hv the talent in the OR but relating to a patient Counts too ♥

[@suewilson3553]

Sometimes I think we don't realize what it takes to be one of these individuals. They are not your party boys your Good Time Charlie's your class clowns. They're way above average intelligence and are probably consider geniuses... So therefore their personality types are totally different. They are not there to entertain you they are there to surgically and medically make you well. So I probably have had 18 surgeries in my lifetime. Believe you me you want someone who can do the job and do it correctly. Because down the road of life what they did in the OR is going to matter a whole lot more then how many jokes they told you.

[@jenshark4]

@@suewilson3553 I agree with you that neurosurgeons are highly skilled highly intelligent people on this planet. However, being that smart, they can build in some nice bedside gestures for their patients. It will go along way for them in their career. Especially when their patients tell their friends and family, what a great surgeon they have. All it takes is for the Nuro surgeon to build in some nice words as part of their routine. Or give a smile once in a while. It’s not that hard. They’re geniuses right!

[@PaletaLee]

Thanks for sharing, you seem shy but you're doing great ☺️👍 Cheers from Brazil 🇧🇷🤗

[@jenniferhill7265]

[@cinderyghost3130]

My grandma passed away last week. She was the person I loved most in the world. I remember the day before she passed I told her that I was going to become a neurosurgeon after I finish high school and she was so happy that’s a dream I have to fulfill not just for me but for her too

I’m studying to be a doctor and this is very inspirational

[@marh6276]

Thank you for choosing your profession.

[@MyBareSolePodcast]

I really enjoy the educational/informative aspect of your content. It’s a refreshing blend to a stressful career. To share a personal bit, I have a meningioma. It was found about 16 years ago now. About a year ago my whole body was crashing and the radial pain I was experiencing was unnerving as I was fearful the tumor was effecting a nerve causing dysautonomic disruptions. I saw a Neurosurgeon who, like yourself, was what I call the perfect example of what the true Art of Medicine looks like. He was kind and compassionate. He truly listened to me with respect and because he had both the patience and intelligence he was able to be part of handing me my life back in some manner by identifying that I was describing peripheral nerve issues and pointed me to a neurophysiologist. Turns out he identified I actually was born with a small stomach so it’s my enteric nervous system tripping off the others. Thanks to a calm and ethical Neurosurgeon, I am a patient who enjoys advocating on behalf of the good and thus importance of appreciating the actual Art of Medicine. That’s my kudos to keeping ethics alive and well through all your complex and often compounded work as respectable Surgeons!! 😊 A+++ for your display of that through the content you share.
