Always wanted to pursue Gastroenterology because it has a mix of both medicine and surgery (due to minimally invasive procedures involved) That clean colon thing really helped :D

[@jasminehernandez5791]

Also having a ton of GI problems, even getting a fecal transplant and recently a rectal surgery, this is really inspiring to help other people in my condition. Currently a 19 yo EMT in Utah and I want to pursue medicine, but this video really helped shed some light, thank you

[@dianaporkhovnik484]

Thank you for this video, GI is my dream specialty!!

[@harlemm9762]

[@laurasalas8375]

I’m hoping to go into obstetrics and gynecology!! Would love to see a video about that

[@RspsTywy]

so many different sciences for health. im interested in a new career path regarding trying to learn about digestion track because i have stomach problems for past 4 years with no resolution to the problem, seeing every doctor and specialist around. and i dont want others to go through this discomfort either. what type of schooling would be best for that? is the only option be Gastroenterologist or is there more specific study that im looking for? looking forward to your feedback love the content

[@johnsoto4807]

Ay good stuff so far Dr. Jubbal

[@Alehan-gt4ec]

I was very inspired by my own problems with this type of field (IBS and GERD) I now want to become a GI Doctor to help people with problems like me.

[@RspsTywy]

Your the most education channel I have seen in past years. I love the content! I have been looking into gastronology to study the gut and ibs / chrones and I'm wondering if there is a smaller career path to get there besides doing 12 years then to specialize in just the gut. I'm not interested in throat and the other avenues of the field. I'm not educated in the schooling sciences. Is there a different science/ doctoret for just focusing on gut?

[@hamzaiftikhar1229]

nope

[@drmarhkexplore3433]

Your videos really help to decide to choose 👍💐

[@TheOneZepphyr]

So you want to be an otolaryngologist, please!!

[@jackusane1017]

I've been waiting for this😅😅

[@johndavidson5921]

Thank you doctor and we are proud of your achievements !! I was suffering from mucuos, stool in blood and get diagnoses Ulcerative colitis and allopathic medicines are not a permanent solution for this but thank god my cousin told me to follow a strict diet chart and take ulcerative colitis care pack of planet ayurveda along that am taking for last 5 months and my symptoms are almost finished and am living a healthy life.

[@NguyenTran-ri1yd]

Great video..I am a big fan of your channel. Wonder if you can do the video about pathologist

[@waterionlydrinkcola.6760]

thanks for the great vid doc! premed here dreaming of becoming a hepatopancreatobiliary surgeon!

[@joshuahackett-maheux8946]

Awesome video, I hope you do a video on intensivist.

[@cgemd7070]

Ver well done. Some errors I noticed. 1. "Cirrhoses" should be cirrhosis. 2. Nissen fundoplication is a surgical fundoplication. Endoscopic fundoplication is termed trans oral incisonless fundoplication (TIF) 3. Several other procedures not mentioned: Liver biopsy, paracentesis, wireless pH monitoring placement, variceal banding, EMR, ESD, plenty more.

[@maplegears]

Can you do one on being a palliative doctor? Thank you for all of your work :)

[@violeta1315]

I'm interested in hematology, and I would love to see "So You Want to Be a Hematologist."

[@marlonmoncrieffe0728]

Same here!

[@meramahmoud8072]

I want to be a gastroenterologist, while currently I'm a GP, i sometimes assist in colonoscopies. There was this patient once with a very bad prep and the theatre smelled awful and we cancelled the procedure as the colon couldn't be properly visualized. Other than that one time, colonoscopies aren't all that bad, other than few farts here and there, if the patient prepped well. Thanks for the vid!

[@lameckmanjolo6652]

fell in love with this specialty

[@cheerleaduhhlove6697]

are all internal medicine hospitalist specialties 7 on 7 off? like even cardio & nephro hospitalists?

[@bahzingapunk2654]

[@loganross194]

If someone is suffering with indigestion, acid reflux and sensitive to certain foods, is it better to seek the help of a dietitian or a gastroenterologist first? The someone is me and I know this video isn’t really for answering questions like this but I felt like it wouldn’t hurt to ask

[@afreen918]

When you say "11 research items" do you mean 11 publications or 11 different research projects?

[@rtsetse5826]

Thank you for your great content! plz make a video pathology :)

[@kevintumanyan8304]

[@the_tax_consultant]

So when's the Pathologist episode coming out?

[@theyerkesfam2217]

This was very inspiring for someone like me who has IBD

[@debrie6319]

😂 I’m a GI fellow in training, it’s true about the laid-back thing.

[@merounelorelei2951]

I actually have the same thing? I want to be a gi because I have mixed IBD too and I wanted to do something for others like me!

[@MonkeyDruffy081]

I spent a long time in the hospital for my big intestine. It really was interesting and got me to thinking. Piano teacher or GI doctor? Or both? It’s hard.

[@nderamaharie5360]

Please make a video on how you make these video presentations.

[@noeliamendoza8780]

Had my JAMP interview not too long ago ya'll, send good vibes lol

[@chipsahoy99]

Please cover Pulmonology in an episode of So You Want to Be. Will highly appreciate it. Thanks.

Just dying for So You Want to be a Pathologist!

Can you do infectious desiase or vascular surgery plesssseeeee

[@sophiekara3940]

please could you do one on infectious disease

[@ovalleviolin]

Hey I have Crohn’s disease as well and hope to become a GI doctor some day. I’m a high school senior so wish me luck!

[@zzzzzzzzzz5036]

Same! Have you started school for it? It’s my dream to be a gastroenterologist!

[@susydiaz2130]

I'm going to pursue GI, I should get in contact with Dr.Kung, im also in Manhattan

[@georgekertawidjaja4517]

As an introverted pre-med student who's in love with medicine, watching all these videos are heart-breaking knowing that most of the exciting and fulfilling jobs out there involve so much extroversion. I've been told that I could never become a doctor because it would be like swimming up stream, and that in the end of the day, I'd be more emotionally exhausted than I am academically considering the amount of patient and team interaction. Please do a video for fields in medicine where introverts are most likely to succeed--whether as doctors or some other specialty.

[@thetinyartist7745]

There’s not really many I’m a bit of a introvert too but I am able to communicate a lot and well for work and study. He once said in a video that you have to be able to communicate a lot and well to be a doctor. There is no non commutative one. But for most jobs that rings true you can’t really be to yourself. I suggest taking breaks not to burn out and learn more communication stamina if it’s absolutely too hard being a doctor might not be for you.

[@marlonmoncrieffe0728]

It sounds like RADIOLOGY and PATHOLOGY are right up your alley.

[@alitabatabaei4578]

Pathology , radiology and medical gentics don't involve as much patient contact compared to other branches of medicine

[@timbennett4016]

GI is my #1 pick for specialty! Is there a way a GI Physician can spend more time with patients and less scoping?

[@heybud23]

Can u plz do renal critical care n pulm-crit please please??

[@enamulhasan6402]

Gastroenterologist Or Radiologist Which is least stressful??

[@sawyermclachlan5049]

I keep rewatching this maybe this is my fit

[@Valour-qh9ie]

Please do about oncology , I have been asking for weeks😭😭

[@melinamotionless2335]

I would really like to see "so you want to be a coroner" I am very interested in this job and I would like to know more about it😊

[@anesthesiadoc6835]

Otolaryngology head and neck surgery.. next please . Thanks. Love your videos.🙂👏

[@ioanniskourouklidis4251]

A video for Otolaryngology-ENT would be helpful

[@sofeazakaria7032]

Can you do "so you want to be a forensic doctor/medical examiner" pleaseeee

[@matthewlee4834]

Don't forget to mention that many of them also become jaded from patient interactions and difficult to work with for any other specialty in the hospital. It's a hard specialty, and it shows. I'm not even trying to throw shade at GI--several gastroenterologists themselves have told me that they feel like the specialty train you to be robot-like and judges you solely by how many scopes/procedures you can do basically. I think it's important that anyone interested in gastroenterology be aware of these downsides.

[@danielbekele7458]

Watching again after I matched urology residency

[@daanyaravindran]

I've been wanting to be a gastroenterologist ever since I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease (IBD)
