A Realistic Day in the Life of a London Medical Student

[@KharmaMedic]

shoutout this KharmaMedic guys podcast 🎙 Also I've done that exact same placement day as you - had the same awkward conversation at reception, and got that same temp ID card! Talk soon 😁

[@haneen.1976]

Wow, I love your videos, keep going

[@elizabethfilips]

YESSS can’t wait! And oh my god I’m glad to hear it wasn’t just me who made a mess of that conversation with the receptionist 😅

[@aymanbraymar3689]

I love your video s

[@ImogenWhite]

Seeing the view from your apartment will never get old, makes me miss uni in London so much! Loved this video!!

[@elizabethfilips]

Thank you Imogen!! 🙏

Same :(

[@intentionalliving7326]

It’s beautiful 🤩

Where do u stay nw imogen💖

[@dragonfang8670]

I admire how hard you work. Can’t really imagine how you find time for everything. For me, between studying, working, spending time with girlfriend/family and still having some leisure time while sleeping 8 hours everyday seems impossible. But you do you, maybe I should start taking some notes of how you handle things!

[@papajohn325]

Liz is the only person who can listen to her own audio note and doesn't feel cringe. Such a soothing voice. And here we are..... Sounding like WW2 vintage guns.

[@elizabethfilips]

Trust me, it sounds bad to me too 😂

[@SerraY]

Such a chill "day in the life of" voice over for what seems to be a pretty hectic and busy day, :)

[@elizabethfilips]

It was mad!!! thank youuuu 😂😂

[@IshaSharma11]

It's so soothing

[@prakash_77]

I can't withstand so much pressure physically let alone mentally, even for a week. You're incredible Elizabeth 💜💙💚💛🧡❤️

[@whatznext28]

Thanks for giving us a glimpse into your world. It's inspiring to see how you're able to do so much!

[@pdhd]

It's always amazing to see the life of a medical student. You're one of my fav med youtubers. Love your content as I find it unique and interesting....I have started med school very recently and I hope to enjoy the journey as much as you do :)

[@elizabethfilips]

Oh thank you!! Good luck with med school :)

[@jassimkoya]

Might I add: "Be kind to yourself and others. And don't believe everything you think." ❤️

[@jassimkoya]

Oh btw... I don't mean to be overly critical, but what you were showing at 3:40 was actually a CT scan. (Radiologist here) 🙃 Wonderful video anyway.. Brilliantly done. 👍

[@yohannchineegadoo6444]

I could easily fall asleep listening.. your voice is so soothing and makes things feel less stressful and more fun!

[@SusheeNzeutem]

"Day in the life" videos are my favorite of yours. I love how you capture your day, it felt like I was on the journey with you. thanks!

[@goddessofwar94]

Thanks for sharing! I always get excited when I see that you have a new vid. It’s cool to see a glimpse of someone else’s life.

[@elizabethfilips]

Awh thank youu

[@niklasholgerson3779]

Leaving your room to get work done is so relatable. Over the years I've built the habit to do all of my work at the library and none of it in my apartment. I could literally drink 3 cups of coffee and still fall asleep if I come home late and try do get some work done. Unfortunately, this habit has led to a massive drop in productivity since the Covid outbreak (libraries are closed or have shorter opening hours) :/

[@elizabethfilips]

I know, I just discovered the lounge had been open this whole time! I’d been missing coffee shops so much!

[@Kitofthearts]

I just like to keep it simple . See my bed, get undressed & fall asleep by putting my phone in another room ❤

[@lifeofchuks1299]

I love the calm of your voice... Amazing video

[@maryjhunealfonso708]

ur voice is so calminggggg grrr been addicted to ur videos because i relate in so many of ur "dilemmas" in lifeee

[@kukki32]

Your commentary is so precise and editing is crisp, its a very engaging and insightful vlog.

[@elizabethfilips]

Thank you :)

[@SerenaShah]

Loveeee this! the landscapes of london you show are sooo beautiful! also loved seeing the behind the scenes at the hospital!! :)

[@elizabethfilips]

Awh thank you!!

[@lilianhartman344]

This was amazing. Also I managed to pass out on a full stomach in theatre this week, so I've gotta take my hat off to you!!! Love the editing too x

[@elizabethfilips]

OH NOO was it your first time in theatre??

[@lilianhartman344]

This is literally the most relaxing voice over ever for such a hectic day 😂

Why does this feel like a feminine version of Ali's videos. Only more beautiful 😜.

[@elizabethfilips]

Lol

Imagine if Ali and Lizzie were a couple. A productive day in their lives.

@@markymarkb We can get that video done without being a couple ;)

[@ThadySenior]

Love the view from your window, particularly at sunset. I think I drove through it the other day, half expecting to see my car feature in a time lapse at some point - keeping eyes peeled

[@hellenxiao4948]

"Good morning" at the beginning of the video is really gentle!

[@perfumeworld2329]

To be a Medical Student is Amazing thing in life. Thanks Elizabeth

[@inspireitoday]

Your tranquility on your face is so relaxing.

[@davidmacdonald4296]

I think it's great that you have all these opportunities to learn from senior clinicians throughout your degree. It looks totally exhausting, but I admire anyone who has the determination to see it through, and I'm sure that we have better doctors as a result of the rigour of medical education in the UK. I think I'll stick to programming in my PJs though :P

[@elizabethfilips]

I knowww I absolutely cannot believe how generous and amazing senior doctors are! Could not be more grateful

[@DrBrunoRecipes]

So much of work, but life goes on. Have a lovely day everyone! Stay safe, stay blessed!

[@hocvanto6353]

My local Hospital. Very interesting look into a day of a medical student. Thanks for sharing!!

[@kendeng8223]

This video is very helpful for me because it clearly shows your daily life in your university (including your home and riding the bus). Thanks for sharing! I am a Chinese senior high student studying Cambridge IGCSE. I will go to a university in the UK in 2023. I wanted to watch this because I wanted to learn more about UK university student’s daily life in advance. Also, the music in the video helped me to relax after studying for a long time.

[@literaturewithjayneel]

you're so hardworking and intelligent, keep at it liz

[@alameeraamal6887]

More videos like this please! I enjoyed it so muchhh

[@sismandarin8636]

Thank you for sharing, and I like learning from you. Your videos are special from the crowd, you are delivering a sense of peace and calm and full of knowledge. BTW, I also take Bus 185 a lot. X

[@IsabellaLondonLife]

This was such an interesting video - it was super informative!

[@LGHhhhhh]

Please make more videos! You inspire me to be hard working as a medical student too.

[@gabrielmoreno4113]

Great to hear that you enjoy neurology, I'm a neurologist in California. Keep up the good work! Love the channel.

[@elizabethfilips]

It's by far the best haha

I loved the video! Your voice is amazing and now i feel motivated to be productive

[@elizabethfilips]

Awww thank youuu

[@spet2904]

Weirdly enough I always go to theatre on an empty stomach, I find I'm more focused and less likely to faint or get hungry by skipping breakfast... A bit counter-intuitive but works for me! Well done for using elogbook already. My biggest regret is not starting mine until I was an F1. Turns out you go to theatre A LOT more as a medical student than as a junior doctor!

[@elizabethfilips]

Oh really!! I wish it were the same for me! And elogbook has been a lifesaver - it's just a bit of a pain with not showing up most consultants 😭

[@spet2904]

Yes true, but I found it's actually pretty quick and easy to add the consultants manually, just have to look up their GMC number on the register (lmk if you need more details on how to do that!!)

[@elizabethfilips]

@@spet2904 Oh my I didn't know that!! I've always been doing 'consultant unknown' and then adding their full name to my notes! I hadn't even thought of checking for the GMC numbers - is that a search option on the elogbook too? 😅

[@spet2904]

@@elizabethfilips elogbook isn't the most user friendly... When you're adding an operation, click 'Manage my Consultant List' then at the bottom in 'Add Non-Logbook User To My Consultant List' put their name in, click 'Add'. On the next screen you want to put their GMC number is the 'Registration ID' box and voila! And searching for GMC numbers is fairly easy on the register www.gmc-uk.org/registration-and-licensing/the-medical-register, unless they have a super common name!

[@elizabethfilips]

@@spet2904 OH MY GOD you're an actual angel!! This is brilliant, thank you so so much Emilie!!!

[@shaihadi]

When I saw the thumbnail I thought you were wearing a navy blue dress and I got so excited 😂😂 and I clicked without even reading the title And then I started watching the video and looked at the thumbnail again and I realised those were just scrubs 😂 but ngl you said you wanted to start wearing stuff that aren’t black and I think navy blue is a good start, it’s still a dark colour so it won’t feel like a leap and it looks amazing on you ❤️ loved this video liz!
