Day in the Life of a Spine Surgeon

[@m5073]

Dr. Webb, I’ve been following you since medical school. I’m an ER doctor now, I just want to thank you for all you do. You’re a great doctor and an inspiration.

[@antoniowebbmd]

Good stuff 💪🏾

[@vince11harris]

Congrats on becoming a doctor

[@tyreechawkins9904]

Congratulations

[@j.calixteii2558]

The recent quality of your content has increased a lot!

[@mustafamohamed8068]

Started watching Dr. Webb in college and starting orthopaedic residency in July

[@waynebranson3059]

Amazing video!! I am a Phase 4b cancer survivor. 25 years ago a fine doctor like you took about 30 tumors out of my body followed by high doses of radiation. I am alive today because of doctors like you. Thank you so very much for what you do!!!

[@shannonhager9999]

I love the way you told that patient the bad news! Clear, and concise-but you'd be with him every step of the way!

[@GuillemVecillaGayà]

The way cancer diagnosis is delivered in this video is completely different as we are taught in my university. Complete shock.

[@inthebooks3947]

He dropped that ball on him

[@christianhorvath791]

Hey man, he is not trained for that. He is human.

[@jimsturt]

and then walked out and immediately was like "and this is how the dictation app that sponsored this video makes a summary of the conversation" 😂😂

[@kathrynaraguz4816]

My heart dropped, that poor patient but i have every faith that they will win this fight with the proper care and proper team in place.. I know it wasnt easy for you but as long as the patient can see that you are human and care they will be in a place to be able to fight.. I appreciate your channel, still have yet to make an appt but im going to.

[@alainmedgyjean-jacques]

I remembered I had to give a bad news to a patient that I suspect prostate cancer … it was hard but I had to tell the truth and he was grateful I helped him.

[@districtfootandankle]

Even as a foot doc I've delivered cancer diagnoses multiple times and it never gets easier. Nothing prepares you for this.

[@linnsoltwedel]

This clearly shows that you care very much! If I had to have such a message, I would want it from someone like you.

[@sekateksekate]

Yoh Dr Webb. Always honored by your work man, it cannot imagine to be in the situation to give such difficult news to a patient with cancer man. Praying for and wishing that patient recovery. Keep up the good work man and keep well

[@nickmuir3686]

Hey Dr Webb long time viewer here all the way from Australia. Love your content and have just started studying medicine myself partly due to these videos. Keep crushing it!

[@antoniowebbmd]

Thank you!!

[@heshaanprathapan1232]

I just started following you, blooming my future as a medical professional, you're just inspirational, currently an undergraduate

[@antoniowebbmd]

Awesome!! Welcome

[@holidayarmadillo8653]

Dr. Webb - what I appreciate most about your channel and your content is how you try to give such a dynamic view of what it’s truly like as a spine surgeon at least in your experience. You don’t sugar coat things, and you try to show other types of situations that aren’t as typical JUST LIKE THIS EPISODE. I commend your courage and the care you took with delivering the news. Responsibility is a heavy burden but you bear it very well. I want to say thank you so much for sharing everything that you do. You’re an excellent role model and a really big inspiration for me, personally, sir. Take care and be well! 🙏

[@mavisfrancis1425]

Dr. WEB you are an amazing doctor. I don't understand how a socall neurosurgeon operates without doing assessment or even a discussion and label the patient with paronoia and delusion. Thank you for being human.

[@kirkscott5342]

you are awesome Antonio J. Webb, M.D.

[@emallace447]

I started medical school at the University of Washington this past fall. I love your content! You're very inspiring.

[@walleball29]

Eid Mubarak Dr. Webb!!

[@EdgarGonzalez-zx5ek]

taking my MCAT in a month! been watching you since i was in HS!

[@EvilSewnit]

Keep it up! I’m going to be starting my journey towards medical school myself soon, going to a community college.

[@venessaabrams8687]

I hope you do great on your MCAT and God Bless you😊

[@Yankee4ever2]

Taking mine in 2 weeks, Good luck bro

[@Yankee4ever2]

@@EvilSewniti went to community college, lock in and get you’re stuff done, you’ll be out in no time

[@Cisco6x]

Dr. Webb, do you edit your own videos? These intros/editing are cold as hell--so awesome!

[@Sienhall]

Hi Dr Webb - I love the content that you have been posting about health care and work. Have you ever done surgery regarding neurofibromas or nerve tumors near the spine? It’s a disorder I’ve been looking into. I know neurosurgeons operate on them but with you being a spinal surgeon I wondered if you ever worked on a case. Amazing content lately, whoever you’ve hired is doing an excellent job filming and editing.

[@karinbergman1646]

A long, busy and draining day. I hope your cancer patient will be alright and thrive. 🙏🏻💗🙏🏻

[@jakec5618]

Genuine question, would appreciate a reply. What do you think about using an AI app such as the one you mentioned for helping with notes and patient privacy/ HIPAA violations. I understand there are some benefits and "freeing" up the provider to focus on the patient vs documentation but, isn't this also coming at the expense of providing private patient info to these companies ? They're pretty much recording the conversation, which is being sent/analyzed/possibly stored, at 3rd party companies. Perhaps theres another way that can still maintain patient confidentiality? Thank you

[@GreatRajsel]

Praying for the guy 🙏

[@rahulk9684]

Great content as usual, thanks for the videos!

[@antoniowebbmd]

My pleasure!

[@Nashtyness]

Love your content. Thank you

My mother just had mastectomy, my sister operated ovaries, and my late father had discuss hernia operated.

[@linnsoltwedel]

Dont you go over the note before storing it in the EMR so that you know it's correct?

[@Callmeromain2016]

Days in the life are the BEST

[@reddbendd]

Wanted to do surgery when I was 7, figured I probably couldn’t get hired as a surgical tech until i was 18 so here i am 11 years later

[@pedrocols]

I am a Mental health Therapist and one of my professors would always say that there a shortage of Oncology Social Workers to deal specifically with these issues.

[@auntie1966]

Very interesting. My nephew invented Mobius Conveyor.

[@swannyriver75]

Dr Webb how do you know it's cancer without a biopsy how does the MRI show cancer

[@tah385]

I loved this video❤

[@pablojaramillo927]

This is quality stuff so much b.s on KZbin 👍

[@db3467]

.Just to let people know The Barbara Ann Karmanos institute is a state of the art facility It is located In Detroit ,Michigan . It was opened up by Peter Karmanos in memory of his late wife Barbara. I received treatment there that saved my life.

[@linnsoltwedel]

So when someone comes to you they usually have pictures taken and perhaps a diagnosis? They dont come to you with pain and then you take the imaging and figure out the diagnosis?

[@cuprunnethover2509]

Dr. Webb! I love your videos. This one would have been better if it didn't include an advertisement in it. I feel it shows insensitivity to a person receiving the cancer diagnosis.

[@user-th8rj4ur3s]

So severe compression and so the tumor is inside his spine?

[@alexhema9147]

King 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@stephen7604]

Not sure wrapping the cancer diagnosis/news delivery around an ad is necessarily the right move, it comes across pretty tacky in my opinion. Just some feedback from someone who enjoys your videos.

[@jeanholt9633]

I thought the exact same thing. The next post also thinks this is fake - if it is, then just indicate it is a reenactment due to confidentiality etc etc. I think the overall point is important for future docs to know that being a surgeon involves stuff like this. The content in this video is important. However, let's put the ads @ another point in the video

[@luld6]

How can I contact you?

[@shelly716]

What stage is the cancer?

[@thembanimgenu190]

Breaking the bad news, eish 😢

[@jonfilibuster8499]

Very sad! Also, at 1:48 he needs to fix his scrub cap.

[@HJ-eb9wv]

You told someone they had cancer off of an MRI?

[@HJ-eb9wv]

You told someone they had cancer off of an MRI? I didn't know you could tell carcinoma vs sarcoma off of an MRI.

[@ALISHISNOIUS]

Did you not listen to the video? The radiation doctor told him to tell the patient.

[@cgmehring]

​@@ALISHISNOIUSYes. My statement still stands

[@cgmehring]

​​@@kristinn3367You have a soft tissue mass or bone lesion (whatever it is), I don't know what it is, so I'm sending you to an oncologist to figure out what it is so I don't do something stupid (like a lot of people do). You don't, and can't, tell someone they have cancer without pathology.

[@NanaKendl2k9]

Do you think using the word “kill” is ok? A genuine question. I know sometimes being upfront is best, but it seemed like a harsh word to hear. Do you plan out your speech? Or more so go with the flow of the conversation. This was hard for me to hear just as a viewer of the video, so I can only imagine how difficult it was being in that room.

[@winallday123xd4]

It's no different than a doctor telling you "if you keep eating the way you are it's going to kill you"

[@SuiLagadema]

I have, maybe, a stupid question: We all have small tremors and, since the surgical field is so small for the spinal cord, do you, or know a colleague, that take muscle relaxants or benzos, such a diazepam, to lower the microtremors? I know some people get sleepy with benzodiazepines, but the effects that are the most prominent when I take it is the anxiolytic and myorelaxant effects only. I was casually watching neurosurgical videos to kill time and it came to my mind.

[@docKAM]

WTF is this? You start out talking about how nervous you are and are dreading revealing to a patient they have a cancer diagnosis and then follow it up with an advertisement, you then record the audio interaction of telling the pt this for some some strange reason, and then as soon as you come out of the room you go right back into the advertisement and talking about being on a podcast? Your bedside manner was also horrible, I am ashamed to watch as this a fellow physician. Please tell me this was all staged. You just made yourself look so incredibly inauthentic and care way too much about projecting an image of yourself to the world.

[@alaskanwhiskey]

Narcissist at its finest. Bet he fired people during the lockdowns too for not taking the juice.

[@jasonsmith4505]

Based off just an MRI 😂 fake this was all for an ad

[@venessaabrams8687]

Dr Webb. I've got to get to you!😘

[@sumbomarcus]

Nice voice tho

[@janetbrown5679]

I've been watching your channel for awhile now, but today I was a little disappointed,why do you label people Do you think patients are more important if they are lawyers, athletes, politicians, you made it sound like they're more important than everyday people.

[@sumbomarcus]

Except one is an intending doctor/doctor or instrumentation engineer this will be boring to watch

[@goodman1123-d5q]

You need to work on the delivery of 'bad news'. You sounded like a nervous wreck. Wtf

[@antoniowebbmd]

Delivering bad news can make one nervous. Absolutely

[@goodman1123-d5q]

@@antoniowebbmd WTF! And then you walked out of the room talking about the app as some sort of sponsorship. Dude, what's going through your head man? Get it together. Life isn't all roses and flowers and cute lil puppies running around and shit. Being nervous ain't gonna help with SHIT. Know your stuff, be confident and just help the patient for god's sake. Smh

[@antoniowebbmd]

Appreciate the feedback. Definitely not that easy to deliver bad news but thanks for your concerns

[@kateysandon]

Is this a HIPAA violation?

@rohandhanota9944 exactly. People want to blame the jab for everything when it’s not even the problem. The average American diet sucks and people don’t even excercise like they are supposed to
