How to Become a Neurosurgeon

Patience and enjoy the process, you will achieve.

[@jas-xs6ux]

[@corey8923]

Thanks for posting Dr. Webb! I am an aspiring neurosurgeon and was waiting for more neuro content. People always try to use the length of practice required to become a neurosurgeon and the fact that I am non-traditional (26 years old) to deter me, but like she said; it requires a lot of patience. To me my dream is worth 13 more years of school + residency. Hell, if it took me 20 I'd still go for it.

I just looked her up. She went to Stanford ! , She's Black, She went to STANFORD, She pursued a STEM major in 2004 (Biological Sciences), then she went to Med School, pursued Neurosurgery of all fields, then she became a Chief Resident at Cedars fucking Sinai (one of the best hospitals in the country). She has a kid and probably a crazy schedule. When people give excuses as to what held them back, I understand, but I don't. Look at the video, she says that she did fail along the way, but doesn't take no for an answer. U can achieve anything you want, anything. !

[@GirlSmotheredToDeath]

Why you have to emphasize on being a woman and black? Sympathy points, of course

It was so nice hearing from her! I am currently going to school to be a functional neurosurgeon and I'm almost there, finally!

[@josphellihsilak4588]

What is a functional neurosurgeon?

[@tonibrooks4013]

Josphelli hsilak thanks for asking! It’s a specialty in neurosurgery that deals with pain disorders associated with the CNS, movement disorders associated with the CNS, and epilepsy (most popular)! A new and common procedure functional neurosurgeons perform is a deep brain stimulation (DBS) which made me what to specialize in this field!

[@mariame3995]

Thank you so much Dr. Webb for this video! I’ve wanted to be a neurosurgeon since middle school, but the closer I get to med school, the more unsure I become because of the work-life balance and being able to have a family and so on. This video put a new fire in me to pursue my passion. Thank you Dr. Ross for your insight!!!!

[@franchialbarnes5240]

Thank you Dr Webb and Dr Ross for doing this interview and letting our new generation see that it is possible to have that dream of becoming a doctor. To all you future students that are thinking about this field please don't let go of your dreams no matter what.

[@samjones4327]

Hey Dr. Webb! Thank you once again for another awesome showcase! You and Dr. Ross are truly an inspiration to us all and I'm talking black people specifically. My uncle is a now retired Airforce Colonel and Cardiothoracic surgeon and he was my hero for a long time as a kid. I wanted to be a doctor for sure when I was a kid, I later went on to become and engineer but my point is that I thank you for providing young folks a platform where they can see people that look like them doing what may have been told to them that was impossible for them to achieve. So I salute you and Dr. Ross for showing us that you can do anything you put your mind to! As usual, be well, be safe and Peace & Blessings
