[@taqwaadam320]

Hello sir. I am a general practitioner from Sudan. I graduated in 2013. Since then, I never felt like I graduated, I have always just passed my exams but I remember very few from the basics. I got frustrated and decided to quit medicine. However, at some point I decided to pull myself together and start over again because it is never late. So now I started to study from the kick and I found your channel by accident when I was searching for something in Anatomy. Thank you so much for making me feel confident again and understand things I never digested before.

[@TheNotedAnatomist]

Hello Dr. Adam, thank-you for your kind message. I am sorry it has been such a tough go for you. I wish you all of the best in your studies and the lives of the patients which you will touch.

[@taqwaadam320]

Thank you so much sir I appreciate every word.

[@mowsumibiswas1802]

[@totorosumbrella4086]

Me toooo, I always pass the exams but I don’t feel like I really understood the basic concept 🥲

[@inshi22]

I'm surprised how no one is mentioning the splendid personality, I died when he did the little giggle after belly buTEN!!! XD

[@familysupportzzz3983]

And the humming at the end

[@ahmedelnagarmd]

I wish my anatomy lecturers were half as good, thank you.

[@Andrea-kb4qo]

Every time I think I don't understand a concept the Noted Anatomist has got my back!

[@amanishaification]

This is the most simple yet detailed explanation I have seen for Dermatomes and humming at the end is like cherry on the top. Thank you.

[@chooicheanchong7773]

This is the first anatomy channel which i will never doze off but smile throughout the WHOLE video!! As I know I've found a fun way to learn, thanks Prof!

[@mlel18]

This lecture was so easy to understand, and I adore your humor and the way you explained things! 🥰 I also appreciate the mini-quiz at the end. I subscribed, turned on my bell and will definitely check more videos out! Much thanks from a PT intern, you made reviewing neuro so much more fun! More power to your channel! 😊💗💗

[@docsafi7749]

from a freshmen medical student to a medical doctor, I really enjoy watching these amazing lectures by Dr. Morton. Been suggesting every junior to watch his lectures if they want their anatomy crystal clear.

[@anhkhoashevakt]

Hi Dr. Morton, I am also an Anatomy enthusiast, and your lectures have opened my eyes so much about different topics of Anatomy. Thank you so much.

[@josephakalonu1052]

Ok, a Doctor, Teacher, Musician, all in one individual! Great combo! A reason to enjoy studying. Thanks.

[@Zireael1410]

You know you're in the right place when the teacher makes you have fun as you learn. Thanks

[@james89vlogg]

Thank you so much for breaking this down! I'm about to start my orthopaedics rotation and this SAVED me regarding testing these dermatomes in the ER!

[@TheNotedAnatomist]

Thanks James ... so happy to hear it. I posted a video on Myotomes and Brachial plexus recently as well. Plus, MSK topics for spine, upper limb and lower limb. Look under playlists.

Great 👌🏼👌🏼

[@tathianeacioli8541]

Amazing! Thank you!

[@yr_yel]

wow that was so easy to understand

[@hssu9076]

This is super informative. But what happens if the entire leg is affected, and tingling sensation in the pubic area, but only l5 nerve root is impinged upon? Would the tingling in the l2 red dot be indicative of l2 nerve impingement? I've always wondered if the nucleus escapes the disc, and is an irritant to nerves, would the irritant be strong enough to irritate other nerves?

[@alejandradonan5596]

THANK YOUUUU. A BIG HELP!

[@montanaproductions5559]

Does sensory locations show up in similar areas in animals

[@victorchelashow3263]

I have Neuro finals in an hour and this just saved my career 😃

[@TheNotedAnatomist]

You're welcome 😊

[@mihirhiremath]

Explained very beautifully! Thanks a lot Sir😄

[@DrDavidNguyenDC]

Thank you!!!

[@lux.2797]

¡GRACIAS!

[@paulw858]

When you're talking about C6 (4:18), the screen says dorsal surface of the proximal phalanx of the thumb, the picture shows that, too. But you say "basically touching the part of the thumb where the thumbnail is." But isn't that part the distal phalanx, not the proximal one discussed in the writing and picture? I was really confused on that part.

[@drdebocherry]

Lovely humming.

[@angelalourine1199]

I love you..it was soo helpful..plz keep teaching me 😍😍😍

[@TheNotedAnatomist]

We will!

[@awesome_aragok4062]
