I work at an Academic Hospital in the OR. After watching every single speciality, I became really fascinated with ENT. They were doing a Moh's nasal reconstruction and did a pedicle flap. It was the coolest thing ever! This guy did not have a nose, and they completely reconstructed it by using his forhead skin! It had really similar anatomy, and he took ear cartilage to help give the nose shape and support. Also he was the nicest guy ever, and just talked with me and explained what he was doing while he was doing it. I think this will be the surgical specialty for me, and this video just reinforced that.

Finally the video for ENT. I'm an ENT resident and I was waiting for you to post this video.

[@jill-vo7ru]

Just wanted to add: I went into medical school gung ho wanting to do ENT. I worked for a community ENT before medical school and thought it was awesome; relatively chill with both clinic and OR time, seemed perfect. I rotated on the service at my medical school (big academic hospital) and holy s*** academic ENT is soooooo different than community, haha. Academic you deal with SUPER sick patients, trauma patients etc with trachs and stuff can get really really scary, real quick!! Also, soooo much spit, people profusely bleeding out of their mouths, head and neck cancers are devastating! The ENTs are among the hardest working attendings/residents in the academic hospital. I ran around from 5:30am-7:30pm almost every day of that rotation. This video was great to remind me that community is an more "chill" option.

[@linaibrahim5719]

What is the community thing I don't know what dose it mean do i have to go through the matching also for that?

[@jill-vo7ru]

@@linaibrahim5719 my understanding is that there aren't really community residencies for ent. ENT Residency almost always is at a large academic center. You can choose to go into a community practice after residency. Community ENTs are typically generalists. They mostly do tubes, tonsils, and septoplasties for surgeries and treat low acuity ent conditions in the outpatient setting.

3rd year med student here and we started clinical appointments. Our second appointment was ENT. I really enjoyed the appointment and it seemed like exactly what I was looking for in terms of work life balance, treatment satisfaction, interesting subject matter. Might be too soon to decide and I am keeping my options open because we didn't have an ophthalmology appointment yet but I might go into ENT later in life.

Generally, most ENT surgeons have clinic days most frequently and perform surgery somewhere between one and three days a week, depending on their subspecialty or system's needs. Clinical days generally are 9 am-5 pm days where we see a wide variety of patients and medical problems.👍

[@ammry3333]

Is there a subspecialty of ent where you do more surgery than clinic? I liked ent but the idea of less surgical procedure kinda turn me off

[@trackandhp7]

Damn. What a name. I am half deaf. Completely deaf in my left ear. I remember years ago, I went Completely deaf for a week or so. I was terrified. I couldn't hear at all. I really need my right ear. Went to a nice ENT who diagnosed me with an infection. I got it from cleaning my ears with q tips. I wasn't able to hear again immediately but eventually. He also informed me of damage to my right ear and informed me on how to keep my ears healthy. Years later, I am very serious about my ear health.

Know it isn’t a medical specialty, but ever think about a video on Oral and Maxillofacial surgery? We have overlap with ENT and a lot of med students/medical professionals have no idea who we are or what our training/scope includes.
