You are amazing! The name of the channel should be Ninja Nerd University because you have more information than a University.

These clinical skills are so well done. The amount of knowledge you have in your brain and are able to articulate so professionally is beyond incredible. Thank you for what you do

[@amineaboutalib]

the physical exam series is so precious

obviously, I have to like this video as my name suggests! 1. Gained consent. 2. Washed his hands. 3. Explained each step very thoroughly. We stan!

[@maryodonnell5760]

he's not just helping the med students, he's helping the patients when so many med students seem to be either lost or cramming to get through material they don't really know :o

[@amarbytyqi3856]

He is helping doctors too, lol

Hey Ninja Nerds Team, I am a pharmacist and felt in love with the channel, been watching your videos since 2021 mostly everyday! I felt in love with Medecine thanks to you guys and I recently took the decision to come back to academia and start medical school to fulfill my dream: Being a MD + Pharmacist! I hope get everything done in 5-6 years!

[@NinjaNerdOfficial]

Thanks so much and best of luck! 😀

[@finahqwambu]

Woow

[@kathleenolivier1588]

​@@NinjaNerdOfficial Love these videos. Can you also make a physical examination video for an abdominal and cardiovascular exam please?

[@ahmadmusawer9392]

This topic is traumatic for me. My first clinical exam the doctor told me to examine all the CRANIAL NERVES of the patient. I wasn't prepared for that. I took a deep breath and started to examine his Olfactory nerve, but I figured out that I don't have any FAMILIAR substance for the patient to smell, so I thrusted RIGHT HAND PALM AGAINST THE PATIENT'S BOTH NOSTRILS and asked him are you smelling anything?! So he answered me No since my hand has no AROMA 🤣🤣. This will never be forgotten 😂

[@Andy-xi4ej]

Oh god!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣

I have had what looks to be similar conducted by badged officer for not utilizing my blinker when making a turn avoiding Morphine analog impaired drivers

[@marinarosabarbosa]

The amount of info and how easy you make it for us to learn makes my heart full! I start nursing school in August. I don’t know if I have to learn this, but I’m here learning anyways!! Thank you!

[@DLN47]

Excellent sir excellent. Not only you have taught us the way to do the testing, but also explained why these tests are done. You have gone above and beyond your call of duty as an instructor. I bow to you. Namaste. You are what I aspire to be. I am a budding PA.

[@barzanyantares9986]

Sending you all my love and thanks Zach. You and the team are awesome, and I'm so happy that you all get to share your knowledge and talent with the world

I'm so happy you're making clinical skills videos. You are a gift from God, no joke.

[@pa2707]

Amazing series. You are honestly teaching better than some of my professors. Please make videos on clinical examination of other systems as well, like CVS, respiratory, GIT, renal, surgical cases etc, and general physical examination and other small basic clinical procedures that a med student should know.

[@nashiresmail4970]

Yes please thank you so much, we now need Clinical tutorials!!! For rotations like paediatrics, obs and gyn , Internal med , and surgery!

[@CuddlesgaloreCats]

Hi Ninja Nerd, you explain the lesions and findings so well. Connecting the dots. Could you make a video of doing the exam in 6.5 mins? This is what we have to do for OSCEs. Then report our findings in 1.5 mins. Would be great to see you do this in exam conditions :D

[@xYummyBieber]

My neurologist gives me this exam but I never knew what it was called. He goes sooo fast and asks like 100 questions in 5 minutes. Now I feel more prepared for it and know what the purpose is lol

[@zeshawna9632]

On the line is a very intelligent man! I can see it. All people should have major respect for men like you! For you to take your time to educate viewers on KZbin is a major good deed sir. Alhumdulilah, Respect

[@andreaabad3499]

you are amazing! I used ur videos pre-nursing school and now in nursing school ur so helpful in all subjects! Thank you for making these videos

[@mykyta98]

If tongue deviates to the left side it says about right hypoglossus lesion, u said 41:20 that if it deviates to the left - lesion is in left hypoglossus nerve. Thanks you Zach for knowledge I got from ur lectures.

[@mykyta98]

Can smd help. In lecture ‘Corticobulbar tract’ Zack talked about corticobulbar tract lesion when tongue deviates contrlateral. Left pathway damaged - deviation to the right. It is an example of upper motor neurone damage. In this vid Zack is talking about lower motor neurone lesion? Where deviation meets the side of lesion. There must be clinical differentiation in the case of corticobulbar tract lesion it will be spastic palsy and in the case of peripheral lesion of hypoglossus nerve it presents with flaccid paralysys (fibrilationts etc) IS IT?

[@ahmedabdelaty1431]

Studied the orbit today for the first time and it feels great to relate this clinically

[@susynne2124]

Hands down, the best, most thorough, video EVER on the cranial nerves examination. So many vids neglect to explain what the implications are of each part of the assessment, should they be abnormal...!
