Becoming a Doctor ⎮Tips, Tricks and Advice with Dr. PrepMedic⎮

[@Gumbougie88]

I was a firefighter/paramedic for 10 years before going to medical school. Best choice I ever made.

[@doma7389]

I’am trying to do the same I’m a year 1 FF/Paramedic rn at 20 any advice.

Which bachelor's degree did you use to go to medical school?

I need friends like you guys! Flight Medic and Doctor!?!? That’s bad ass! Keep up the great content 👊🏼

[@PrepMedic]

Haha in the US Medic is synonymous with paramedic unlike in the UK where medic means physician

[@OndansetronEnthusiast]

Super interesting video guys, eventually becoming a doctor is one of those end goals for me in life so it’s nice to hear someone who is taking a similar path give their experiences. I’m in a paramedic course right now but I love the idea of continued education. As a side note, I’d love to rock some Prepmedic merch one day, any chance of that happening soon? Cheers

[@Aquamayne100]

Awesome to have your wife on here explaining the physician training process. Congratulations on the baby guys!

[@kenbiddle5788]

As a service technician servicing and repairing microscopes I have spent a great deal of time in labs and in pathology. I have a great deal of respect for pathologists who most times are never seen or heard of. Doing a frozen with the surgeon still operating still amazes me of the knowledge involved. Take care.

[@my23glock]

Thank you for taking the time to put this together. Thanks to Susie for sharing her past experiences in academics and the human toll it takes to endure. Congratulations to you both as husband and wife for going the extra mile to make your relationship work every day, even though you may not see each other. Medical school and residency are TOUGH. Being married and making things work through the good and the bad is EXCEPTIONAL. God bless you both for your dedication. Congratulations on the new baby.

[@anz388]

I think this is the kinda videos that we all need to inspire and provide awareness and this is probably what's perhaps missing these days. Thank you so much for doing that. Also, Good luck and congratulations on your forthcoming bundle of joy. You guys make a beautiful couple and we truly cherish you guys for doing what you do. Thank you x million

[@HeritageCast]

This def solidifies my plan to go Physician Assistant ... And the medics here makes alot more sense, less debt faster to get working and more options..

[@lizzapaolia959]

Congratulations too your wife. Your both solid people. God bless you both and Merry Christmas ⛄🎄

[@philipbacani9400]

Looking forward for more Mrs/Dr. PrepMedic episodes...especially when she went for thyroid treatment on a medical person's pov.

[@Basedmursenary]

People are smart because who they surround themselves with. I’d say you’ve done a fine job! Happy for you both and you’ll make fantastic parents. Keep up the great content!

This is an awesome video! Thank you Susie for coming on and speaking with us. I was curious about what tips and tricks you both had for maintaining a happy healthy marriage while working and going to medical school. Thank you!

[@craigcottingham35]

Thanks guys. I wonder what Suzie does to support you Sam.???? Congratulations on your coming baby.❤️🙏

Great video! Extremely thorough. Great question choices

[@Dadlife911]

Super cool! You have your own medical control

[@DeRocco21]

I was dating a doctor too, loved that other doctors love talking shit

[@MM-iy9xu]

Not to get into politics but how do you think lowering qualifications for medical applicants will affect the USA healthcare system?Also I would think addressing the financial costs for students would be a benefit and stress reduction so becoming more proficient in their practice of medicine would produce a better healthcare professional. Thank you both for your dedication to this wonderful field of expertise!

[@waterhead1359]

Great interview

[@ep_med7822]

Your kids are basically in the best position for healthcare for life lol

[@broncoBACON]

32 credit hours???!! How?! Like seriously, why do I feel like you have to be extraordinary to pull that off. I can barely handle 12-14 hours

[@commiekiller]

Nerd life

[@josephb8499]

My paramedic program is also 32 hours a week. 8-4pm T-F.

[@PrepMedic]

Credit hours and hours a week are totally different things. For one semester your paramedic program is probably 12-15 credit hours

[@broncoBACON]

@@PrepMedic Oh my mistake. Currently in nursing school and graduate this month. Looking to become a flight nurse in the future. I appreciate your videos and videos like these.

[@dp1643]

Pathologists can do both anatomical AND clinical pathology. My dad was both.

[@robertdole5391]

I did Physician Assistant and it was pretty brutal. My school had similar 31 credits course load but they did NOT care if we succeeded or failed.

[@Bilbus7]

Damn!

[@andrew9360]

Hey, Sam. Thanks for doing this video. The beard look really works for you. What is your experience on beard policies between different services? Just finished EMT school and want to make the career switch, but I look downright unsightly without a beard.

[@jimwayne4321]

Great input, great information! what about the difference (role in hospital) on paramedic and a doctor?

[@Izak213]

I’ve been waiting for this!!

[@dylanhill1640]

Would it be beneficial to join the Navy Medical Corp as a Cardiovascular surgeon?

[@jacks6632]

How did becoming an EMT post her undergrad help her applications for medical school? Does she think any other job/training (besides the req classes obviously) would enhance her med school apps?

[@FacundoMD]

Yes ! I used to be an EMT and now an ER doctor. For looks good and is useful. better to have it than not. Stay safe

[@josephb8499]

You need patient contacts… Emt is a quick gig to get into. To start working on the ambulance.

[@MarioStingerPerpetualTraveller]

What are the 10 books to read to become a doctor?

[@Broughden]

Sam, quick question. Why dont you have a Twitter account? Would make keeping track of when new videos are released easier to follow.

Is there any audio books on combat medicine

[@pandabearlover102]

Smart woman! Couldn’t imagine those student loans tho 😫

[@PrepMedic]

Yeah, they can be brutal, but if you are smart with your money you can get past them. We should have hers paid off by next year.

[@renegade7493]

Awesome video

[@juki009]

PrepMedic grows a beard earlier this year (May I think). Then a couple months later shows for the first time that he has an awesome hot smart wife and has a baby on the way. Conclusion... I need to grow a beard. Any tips?

Wow. I can barely stand 18 credit hours; I could not imagine 32

[@Izak213]

Where’d y’all meet?

[@86aidan31]

I could be wrong but I think they met when they were EMT or when he was a paramedic and she was an EMT. I think he said that like years ago in a video.

[@PrepMedic]

Yeah, she was an EMT and I was a paramedic back in the day. I like to tell her I taught her everything she knows 😂

[@Plenipotentiarius]

Very informative video-- and I hate to be "that guy" but... The thumbnail shows the [staff/rod of] Caduceus which is often wrongly used to signify the medical field. The correct symbol for medicine is the staff/rod of Asclepius (stick with one snake). Caduceus was Hermes' staff and it represents commerce or something less cool than medicine. Asclepius was a hero/god of healing, so naturally he had a stick with a snake around it as wrap-around Oakleys didn't exist back then. I'm mentioning all of this because the rod of Asclepius is often featured in the EMS Star of Life symbol, a blue six-sided symbol (like an asterisk) that indicates emergency medical services and six important things I can't remember for each point on the star.

[@evanandersen64]

30 credit hours!!! How do you work?

[@mopseydocks6014]

You don't.

[@PrepMedic]

Yeah, you can’t work and go to medical school at the same time.

Don’t you know…. We don’t get medical help/advice from physicians any more. We get it from podcast hosts 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@fbibking3205]

What medical career you suggest that won’t be replaced by robots, Thats inflation proof and gives financial freedom?

[@DMA_Actual]

18 Delta... If there's a robot, you can shoot it. If there's inflation you can combat it with a sweet sweet reenlistment bonus, and it offers financial freedom every time you deploy and aren't spending money 😂

[@Grannn]

Nurse.

[@86aidan31]

Doctors aren’t being replaced in your lifetime 😂

[@PrepMedic]

Just don’t go into a medical profession that is dependent on a single piece of technology and you will be fine. Paramedic, nursing, physician, resp therapy are all pretty secure areas. While you can make some good money in it, professions like ultrasound techs make me nervous because I don’t know how adaptable it is.
