Day In the Life of A Neurosurgeon - Mark McLaughlin, MD, FACS, FAANS : Episode 2

[@influentialnobody8960]

Listening that my doctor prays before my procedure takes away 90% of my anxiety. My doctors hands are guided by the One who loves me ❤

[@marybabameto1195]

I love how you are a very patient teacher and spend a lot of time with the med student. Really dismantling the malignancy of the neurosurg reputation

[@bboysaif8]

@Barsam Barsamian ​ ask questions as she’s doing, you’re there to learn

[@Loutripe]

Its a video. I don't want to sound like an a**hole but people act different when on camera and behind the scene. It's pretty known that some very qualified people in the medical field have huge egos, have a temper, some are even psychopath, they are completly desensitised of the human body. Why do you think he is wearing a very expensive gold watch on duty ? Does he need it to see time ? I'm not saying he is a bad person I'm sure he is a very good doctor and/or person but always be critical of a situation. People don't ask things about people in the medical field because they are saving lifes and it would be "a bit unethical" to ask questions some would say. I have a friend who's a nurse and the stuff she hears doctors say about patient or about work and how they treat their collegues, that would make you mad. Not all doctors are like that thank god and the more we get access to those informations, the less likely we will have crazy doctors. But a few years ago there was a story of a brazilian surgeon doing "stuff" to attractive women while they were asleep. It was one story because he got caught in the act. Now just imagine in the past 60 years the crazy stories lol

[@abba-Flammenfresser]

@@Loutripe stop making up stories in your head and appreciate this very, very talented human-being at the very pinnacle of his profession give us a glimpse into his work. There are only a handful of humans capable of doing what he’s doing, and you’re over hear throwing around hypotheticals? Go be miserable elsewhere 💩

[@kubabak4]

God bless these people that have studied all these long years, sleepless nights, stress, constant nerves just to aid the world and save lives of so many people. Massive respects.

Have one at home, and I can tell you that they give a portion of their lifetime for others.

[@donnaallgaier-lamberti3933]

I felt very strongly when this physician took this women's hand to show support to her and to help her to feel safer. As a patient this is very important in building trust between patient and physician.

[@1988sawa]

Yes, personal touch- even if just for a couple minutes- is SO important, not only for the emotional, but also for trust. I've been in unfortunate positions where the primadona walks in for a procedure and hasn't even made eye contact let alone a short meet...I mean how long does it take? It feels assaulted and as just a number in these situations. Often I read the comments here about Dr. McLaughlin, and they are always complimentary if his bedside manner. Bravo, Mark, may you never lose that. 💞 @MarkMclaughlin

[@medbubble2798]

It's truly amazing , how patient you are with the med student , and are explaining everything in detail , being a fellow med student, if all the academic doctors and surgeons were as patient and diligent as you are , we would all gain so much knowledge . Also really do appreciate that you've taken the time out of your busy schedule to make these videos to educate us , thank you . :)

[@brody2642]

Seriously. I feel like me and my peers wouldn't be so terrified all the time if we had physicians like him guiding us. The whole culture of "my superiors treated us like shit, so now we have to continue the tradition" is toxic.

[@NeuroRounds]

He is truly the best!

[@1988sawa]

Oh, Dr. Mark...listening to you and watching that walk...I just am so proud that you were my surgeon. Your intense and comprehensive knowledge are stunning. And your interest in teaching, well, you know that I know well your parents would be so proud. And to add to that, as I remember, your sincere looking into patients' eyes, and listening... again, I was fortunate to have been advised to go to you for my surgery 💞 @Mark R Mclaughlin

[@bayjustin3885]

So this is how the other half lives … damn. Here I am, sleeping in… getting drunk … eating crap … fat … undisciplined … unprepared And here he is, prob waking up early, prepared, healthy, disciplined. He’s changing lives and I’m changing the channel, on my sofa. day in. Day out. Inspiring ! Truly! Thank you !

[@loganhanson8713]

But that doesn’t have to be the extent of your life! You have the opportunity to do that for yourself and to live in a way that is self-fulfilling. Sure you may not have the availability to go back to school and become a neurosurgeon but you can put forth the effort that comes with this profession into your life as well. Best of luck and I wish you well in your future endeavors

[@neuromd42]

absolutely invaluable videos for anyone contemplating any type of specialty

[@peggymartin7681]

I love that you pray! That’s very comforting…❤

[@contrajedi8]

I love the fact that you hype your team and show appreciation to them. Great leadership, sir.

[@xMrJanuaryx]

Was looking for episode 3. Couldn't find it. Anyhow, thank god for people like this. That's all I can really say.

[@isaiahhealey6323]

such an amazing doctor and person.

[@valleygirlgg]

So I was experiencing pretty bad neck pain and have a history of being in a head-on motorcycle collision when I was 9 years old when scans were not yet used and I broke my neck but no one knew it at the time. Having this bad neck pain I went to Dr. Mark Remington and he took an xray and came in, raised his voice about how I had arthritis but so what! Everyone does! Because of my history I asked for an MRI. He refused and chased me out of his office. I found out 5 years or so later while in the ER with this neck pain and had an MRI. Guess what? I needed emergency surgery to decompress my spinal cord and all the discs had herniated and degenerative arthritis had pretty much destroyed my atlantoaxial joint in my neck. You know, the one that literally holds your head on your body. I have developed lung and heart disease so I can't have surgery. I will end up a quadriplegic. I'm only 61.

[@luiscrespo9902]

Thanks for being such an excellent, patient, teacher. It's so important to build the bench of future health care professionals.

[@Danny_jrt]

I very much appreciate these videos! Nice to see a fellow wrestler dominating in the OR as well.

From what site did you see the MRI of the patient on the laptop?

[@savannahmorrow7675]

mark! do you happen to work with epic?

[@NeuroRounds]

Yes, he does. Some of the hospitals he is affiliated with use Epic as EMR!

[@destineklyn9780]

Hello, I just watched a YT video and it says that when you become a neurosurgeon, you are already 40- 45 years old (takes a lot of time). Is that true? I'm an aspiring neurosurgeon and I will start my med journey perhaps 2- 4 years from now.

[@crixsnbhagi]

In America its 4yrs of college, 4yrs of medical school, then 7yrs of residency and a year or two of fellowship. That's 16 to 17yrs, so if you start college at 18yrs with no breaks in between and set backs you'll be finished by 34 to 35yrs.

[@mustang8206]

Like the other person said 35 if you don't breaks but lots of people take a research year before going into residency which adds another year, and some people take a gap year before applying into med school, or they don't get in the first time. Both of these things could mean you won't be a neurosurgeon until 37

Hi

[@elizabethnevers3945]

I was not vibing with this dude at all. From the moment she asked a pre-op question and he wouldn’t give her his full attention. I would have noped out of there. My cardiologist never rushes me. When I ask a question he usually pulls up his heart model, shows me an ECG to illustrate a point, or pulls up data points from heart monitors I’ve worn. He showed up early to talk to me in pre-op. He also wears a backpack. Not a Rolex. I like a nerd doctor. Not a jock doc.

[@richardsmith9509]

Dr Mark: great compassionate videos but I think that a $20,000 solid gold Rolex while in scrubs is totally unnecessary.......

[@pieevlogs]

😅

[@natalies9984]

That’s your observation and whilst I understand, if he were to save your life, would you be okay with that?
