HOW WE DECIDED ON OB/GYN AND ANESTHESIOLOGY!!

[@kamaragurl]

Starting med school this year. I think I'm very hands on as well, def interested in ob-gyn and internal medicine. Hoping to hear more about anesthesiology!

[@MedHead]

Super insightful outlooks on the specialities. Y'all giving me some things to think about, haha 🤔

[@TheChocolateDocs]

That’s great! We’re excited to hear what you decide.

[@mahoganymed1455]

[@TheChocolateDocs]

[@faithbritt9607]

So happy for you both!!! Congratulations!

[@TheChocolateDocs]

Thank you so much! 💞

[@kettyconsuegra7973]

Congratulations!! I'm entering my second year in med school and am considering anesthesia. Could you guys talk more about your extracurriculars (research etc...) that you think made you stand out? Specially with STEP1 being pass/fail I think this part is getting to be even more important for application purposes and it can be really stressing lol

[@TheChocolateDocs]

Thanks love! Yes, we will address those questions and more in this series.

[@futuredockey3695]

I want to go into anesthesia but how she explained OB/GYN I think I might consider it When I get to med school

[@kemageorge2194]

Just discovered your channel (via IG) and I want to say, CONGRATULATIONS!!! I teared up watching the match video, so proud of you two. I am inspired by you both. I am undecided between both OB/GYN and Anesthesiology. If possible, it will be nice to see more "in depth" videos about day in the life and what you are learning and etc. Thank you for taking the time to film, edit and share your journey.

[@AbigaillOwusu]

I AM SO PROUD OF YOU LADIES! You both are so inspiring. God bless y’all🙏🏾❤️

[@mandiangumd]

Planning on pursuing OB/GYN or emergency medicine so I love this video! Maybe I'll be able to find something in between hahaha Love the videos!!!

[@busayomed]

Thank you for giving me an idea of what to expect especially since it’s going to be my first year in medical school. I love anesthesiology but I’m unsure of what the long term future goals are like. Can an anesthesiologist have their own practice and all of that?

[@tonitalks]

This was such a nice insight into how to decide which speciality to go for!! I’m currently in need school and it’s so hard to choose 😭

[@TheChocolateDocs]

Glad it could help! You have plenty of time love. You'll figure it out when it's the right time.

[@ccgirl5597]

Congratulations to the both of you!!! And Nneka you’ll get to work with one of my friends from college, Nicollete!!! She should be a PGY-2 by the time you start. Good luck guys as you start this new journey ❤️

[@bpparkinson]

Love this so much. Wishing you guys all the best!!

[@TheChocolateDocs]

Thank you so much!

[@bpparkinson]

@@TheChocolateDocs You’re welcome!

[@theloveone]

Love y'all. So happy to see the growth and the journey.

[@Juliana-mm5td]

Thanks for sharing!

[@TheChocolateDocs]

You’re welcome!!

[@Juliana-mm5td]

@@TheChocolateDocs Can you share advice on networking and how to find mentors once in med school?

[@TheChocolateDocs]

@@Juliana-mm5td Yes, we plan on addressing that topic in our upcoming videos!

[@tobymoghalu7842]

Congrats to you both! Thank you, Nneka, for the heads up on the video. I’ll be on the lookout for future videos and I’m hoping we can stay in contact on my journey to anesthesia

[@PearlsOfWisdom908]

I am from India and I too am on the precipice of this HUGE decision on whether to take OBGYN or ANAESTHESIA . Thank you for for making this video 🙏🏼🙌🏻

[@perlameghana333]

Hey can I know what u choose n why?

[@PearlsOfWisdom908]

@ The counselling has just started this month will get back to you in a while

[@rashidawilkinson]

This is so inspiring. I’m still in undergrad and it took me so long to compete with myself instead of competing with my peers. I went from wanting to be a vet to dermatologist to now OB/GYN and that may or may not change once I hit clinical rotations 🤷🏾‍♀️. But I’d definitely like to know for matching do you apply to a specialty? A specific program at a specific hospital? Does it matter if it’s in-state or out/of-state? Because I’m out-of state now for undergrad, want to go back to Florida for med school, and pray that I work at my desired hospital in Florida too

[@TheChocolateDocs]

You apply to various programs across the nation that you would like attend. Those programs invite you to an interview at their school. You rank the programs that you interviewed at from best to worst and those programs rank all of their applicants as well. Hopefully you have a perfect match and you find out during match week!

[@kennyl650]

Subscribed! Yall are OD FUNNY

[@marilynalexander8415]

So proud of you both!❤️❤️

[@TheChocolateDocs]

thanks mama!!

[@khadijah744]

So happy for y’all!! This video was so inspiring ❤️❤️

[@neuroxplorein]

Congrats, official MD's!!

[@TheChocolateDocs]

Thank you!!!

[@leemays6264]

Can you please talk about networking .... I really really want to go into dermatology but I also want to go to an HBCU medical school and they make it seem like its impossible to be able to do both

[@TheChocolateDocs]

We can’t speak on the journey into dermatology specifically but we will be discussing how we networked in our specific field! I would also check out our Melanin Men in Medicine playlist! There, we have an interview with Dr. Turner who is currently completing his dermatology residency.

[@kiahofalltrades4034]

Hey loves! Considering becoming a certified anesthesiologist assistant over going to medical school for anesthesia. Have you heard of these programs? Curious to know your thoughts especially the anesthesia resident. Thanks ladies !! ❤

[@julesm5890]

So is ChocolateDocs going to continue when you guys are in residency or maybe doing separate channels since you guys will be apart?

[@TheChocolateDocs]

Great question! After we wrap up this series we’ll discuss future plans 😊
