A FULL WEEK in the life ON CALL | Orthopedic Trauma....

My sister just finished med school, she's now a pediatrician in Texas. I commend you for the years of study. The dedication it takes to become a doctor is astonishing. I just admire anyone who has the discipline to go and become a doctor.

Thanks for taking ER/TRAUMA call Dr Webb...I realize it's more-or-less a thankless task, but somebody has to do it...&, judging by the trajectory of your success, it won't likely be you for too much longer...still, it's nice to work ER/TRAUMA (as I have done, on weekends/nights for the past 23 years) & know that somebody really good is going to be available on a consult, particularly when one considers a good deal of these patients are non-funded/uninsured/underinsured

As someone who has been helped by orthopedic surgeons on 3 separate occasions (L1 burst, femur in 2 places, tib/fib) it’s very interesting to watch behind the scenes like this. It seems to be an exhausting profession. Thank god for them.

[@camalexander8564]

This was amazing to watch. as someone that's had more ortho surgeries than I can list, with radial reconstruction and different forms of ORIF and external fixation included, it's amazing to see just how much work you're putting in to ensure your patients are taken care of.

[@rhondalassiter]

@Living Soul Yes, ignore years of study and research, believe something you watched on "Brand new tube" instead. Go comment this on the videos you watch about Zodiac signs and essential oils, not under an actual Orthopedic Surgeon's vlog.

[@KiwikimNZ]

@Living Soul you do not need to excuse yourself for not being confident at wording things. I appreciate you trying to share your knowledge because you think that it may help others but this might not necessarily be the right platform to share on. As a health profession who works on the front line seeing the reality of situations such as covid and suffering that people do go through as well as their families, then to see how covid can have long term health effects long after a patient gets out of hospital, if anything I do not think that the real truth of how bad this has been is out there. I appreciate you trying to help others but don’t believe everything you read or watch on things such as you tube. Xx peace

[@wethenorth6437]

Back in 2015 I shattered my ankle and also broke my Tibia and Fibula (almost compound) and I had to wait 3 days completely sedated in a hallway at the hospital because there were no beds and no orthopedic surgeons available immediately to perform the surgery. The poor Ortho surgeon on shift that afternoon already looked totally exhausted but was at least able to re-align my bones to stabilize everything and assured me he would get to me in a couple of days. I felt so bad for him as he was obviously overwhelmed with cases. I had the surgery done 3 days later however it took me almost 3 years before I could walk without a limp or pain. I certainly admire the work you do and I really appreciate the long hours and personal sacrifice the job entails. Now I've been waiting a year and a half for a spinal consult on a bulging disk (L4 and L5) in my back that is affecting my nerves and impinging my spinal cord. I live in Canada so the wait times are outrageous these days but I sure am glad that we have people in your profession to fix us up and keep us moving until the next time lol

[@kevkev5935]

Mad respect for these doctors and their dedication.

[@azdesertrat9104]

A good friend of mine and her husband are orthopedic surgeons and are pretty much the only game in town until she retired. They are both very passionate about the work they do, but I saw how those extra-long hours in surgery took a toll on her back. Hence, the retirement phase. She still serves on a consultative basis, but those were some pretty long hours. Hats off to your folks! It ain't easy many times, I'm sure. Thanks for sharing!

Respect and admiration for your dedication to your family, profession and allowing a glimpse into your life.

[@TeddBuddy]

DUDE that phone call in the car reminded me so much of when I called an orthopedic surgeon post op. for a consult due to some unclear restrictions, and GAD she frightened me. It was like my first week. After that, it took me time to build back my confidence in consulting an orthopedic surgeon. It's fine that time is hectic and of value, but don't traumatize your team members. I like arrogant doctors though, they are often arrogant because they are confident in their abilities. For better or worse. I've also worked with the most emphatic and skilled doctors. There's a lot of flavors. But when you are new, those arrogant ones can be a little scary.

[@jamess303]

I got into nursing with 0 knowledge of the field, not an ounce. 3 years later, and subscribed to you and Max Feinstein (anesthesiologist) and I just can't begin to describe how inspiration you guys are. Not throwing any sort of shade towards nursing, it's just not what I want, which I found out after entering the field. It eats me up inside, I want to become a physician; cardiology is my biggest interest right in front of critical care/pulmonary medicine. But, I have 3 kids and a wife, early 30's......just don't think it is feasible for me at this point anymore. So anyways, I just wanted to tell you how inspirational, educational, and genuine you are in your videos.

[@thesunris]

Same as a nurse. If I went back in time I'd be a MD. Same as you, life is too late. Oh well

[@ahmedelzayat9801]

its not too late. Next MD cycle opens in may 2024. Many people matriculate at the age of 30. Some schools have a 3 year MD program that shuttle you into primary care if you are interested in Cardio or Pulmonary.

[@StudentDoctorEli]

Dr. Webb I love the on call videos. These are the first videos I saw from you when I was in undergrad and they inspired me to get to where I am today. Shoutout to you because seeing a Black man in medicine on KZbin motivated me and gave me hope and is the reason why I am where I am today and your youtube even inspired me to start mine so I could make videos like your but on the Dentistry side.

[@danabuck6461]

Loved your part ref spinal decompression. I have had two c-spine fusions. The first was for decompression of my spinal cord...50 percent compressed. Fused c2 thru c5. The second fusion, 15 months later, fused my entire c-spine, enlarged the upper part of my spinal column, and had to scrape out a significant number of spurs. I was told I would have a max of ten years before another surgery to remove spurs would have to take place. Five years later I am once again having numbness and electric type shooting pains down my arms. Thank heavens there are surgeons around who take care of this!!!

[@Yankee4ever2]

Dr Webb is such a bad ass, I aspire to be so calm and locked as you in Doc

[@eatcheesekobe]

This is really awesome and I wish more physicians from other surgical specialties can post similar videos. It's important for medical students, especially fresh medical students, to understand that the "busy life" of a surgeon doesn't just end after your short 1 month acting internship rotation, or even after your 5+ years of residency, it's life long. So you best really like it and are sure you really like it or you will be the 1/5 that burns out and drop out.

[@MatthewSikinaMD]

Hi Dr. Webb, ER doc here. I've been watching your videos for some time. You put out great content, and your videos are always on point. Just wanted to point out- in a perfect world, we would all wait to consult until the whole workup is complete. The reality of the ER nowadays is extreme understaffing and overcrowding with a large number of boarders to the point where many of our active patients have to be seen in the waiting room. Because of this, there is tremendous, tremendous pressure put on the docs to dispo patients as soon as possible, many times before the full workup is back. I agree that ESR and CRP are important components, especially to rule out osteomyelitis, and may potentially convert the patient to a surgical candidate. I can guarantee you that every ER physician worth his salt knows that. The ER doc likely called you early because the patient was going to get admitted anyway, and he wanted to cognitively unload because the reality is that he probably had a full ER with boarders, 20 patients in the waiting room, an A-fiber with RVR in the hallway, a psych hold that has gotten sedated multiple times, and EMS is 5 min away with an unresponsive patient being intubated in the field. I agree that this is not ideal for patient care, and I wish things were different. Just wanted to drop the perspective from my side of the double doors. Be well :)

[@antoniowebbmd]

Hey doc I appreciate the perspective. Definitely understood 👊🏽

[@tbprofile1295]

If the wound, or workup of the wound, is the concern then wouldn't Vascular, ID or Medicine be the first call? Regardless, I don't think it was respectful to broadcast the call on KZbin.

The foot call reminded me of when I would follow up with my Ortho who had done 6 knee surgeries on me. He would come in just shaking his head because of stuff like that and I would laugh. That man and I are so close now because he was the only one who knew there was something wrong with me and agreed to fix it. I’m also his only patient who he’s at to do a proximal and distal realignment of the patella on so he also calls me his special case that he uses to teach.

Great video, the call you received from the ER at 6 minutes basically sums up my orthopedic issues as a patient. Not diabetic but don't feel pain (HSAN) so foot wounds don't hurt to walk on which leads to ulcers etc. thankfully nowadays ortho doesn't get involved much because i take better care of my feet but when they do it usually means it's bad (got my left big toe amputated as a teen ) I'm very surprised the er person who called you didn't at least have the crp on hand lol, I can understand your frustration

[@eatcheesekobe]

The ER is always like that. Oh abdominal pain? consult general surgery... with literally no workup nothing. Ogilvies? let's consult surgery because I've forgotten that surgery is literally last resort for workup/treatment of that. TV and media glorify the ED too much, but in reality they're just a dispo service that doesn't really know how to accurately dispo people.

[@MacDeece]

Yeah my dad’s an oncologist and often gets calls when I’m in the car with him from ward staff and nurses who ask him for advice without any information like platelet counts etc. Before seeing this video I thought it was just him being harsh because he’d sometimes tell them in a very much passive aggressive tone that they should have all of that for him but now I can understand the pain of having your valuable time wasted by someone who doesn’t have their facts in order. Another common thing that he finds frustrating is when he gets a call about a patient that isn’t his or called when he’s not on call (a rarity) and asked a question that any nurse or doctor on the ward could’ve answered instead. I have to respect how you manage to keep your cool with those things

[@jayscheidt7878]
