🙋🏻‍♂️ Who am I?
I'm Khaled, a final-year medical student, and I make videos on quite a few different topics within the scope of medicine such as reacting and breaking down medical shows, studying for exams, discussing important health issues, etc... I hope that my videos help you in any way, shape, or form and that you enjoy them regardless of your background.
Medicine is quite the challenging topic, but I don't see why we can't enjoy it together!

also I just randomly stumbled upon your biostats vids and they have DEFINITELY been a huge help so far -- Thank You

[@Khalemedic]

Yes, unfortunately sometimes out of habit, I do the opposite to get a negative number, then flip it back in my head since risk can never be negative. I hope that makes sense! :D
