So You Want to Be a SURGEON [Ep. 2]

[@MedSchoolInsiders]

Sounds like neurosurgeon and cardiothoracic surgeon are the two most requested. I'll be working on them in the coming weeks. I'm also going to be working on A Day in the Life of a Neurosurgeon with a friend of mine from UCLA. If you want to check it out, subscribe to my other channel here: kzbin.info

[@melissa_life__6161]

Me too

[@richardouellette4041]

I'm aware that this was posted 4 months ago so you may not even see this, but Nurse Practitioners (highest level nurses) and Physician Assistants overlap a lot with physicians but tend to work better hours and have a better work life balance. They even get to specialize as physicians do but without residency.. If you are already an rn, becoming an NP might be a great option for you! If after looking into this the role of physician is what you want with no exception, another option is to look into the specialties with better work life balances comparatively speaking. Some specialties work more or less than others, just as some have more or less on call. Family medicine comes to mind but there are others as well, such as the "ROAD to success" specialties

Jocelyn Contreras If it’s your passion you can still make it work. I’ve seen surgeons with families, but it is extra difficult to do well.

When I was 11, I got 3 metal pins drilled into my finger. They were sticking out of my flesh for 3 months and ever since then, I have fallen in love with orthopedic surgery. For that short amount of time, I couldn't stop observing and touching the pins. After expressing my love for the medical field, my doctor was somehow able to convince multiple surgeons to allow me to watch an operation. I still remember each suture, and I will never forget it. They were repairing a proximal tibia fracture using plates and screws. Now, I have my heart set on becoming an orthopedic surgeon.

Thank you Sounds like the two most frequently sought specialties are cardiothoracic and neurosurgery. Heart and lung surgery. Surgeons come in a variety of specialties, such as general surgery, brain surgery, and cosmetic surgery.

[@CXY96]

11:16 is so important. I don't want videos like this to enamor surgery for any prospective medical trainees. Medical TV shows already do that enough. Other specialties (non-surgical ones) are just as important and challenging as surgical specialties. Remember that all specialties have to work together in order to provide the best care for our patients!

[@everydayjay]

Other specialities are as important but probably not as challenging.

[@CXY96]

@@everydayjay Depends on what you define as challenging. But no, not really. While the hours may be better in medicine, the workload is not any less. Internal medicine residency is widely known as one of the most challenging ones to go through

[@everydayjay]

The workload can't be greater in medicine. How can it be when surgeons do medical PLUS surgical management whereas IM specialists only do the former.

[@everydayjay]

And i don't know where you're from, but Peds, Surgery, OB are all known as more challenging than Medicine. Maybe if you're comparing with dermatology or radiology

[@CXY96]

[@draconiusultamius]

I've always had the vague idea of becoming a surgeon, but I wavered on it quite a bit as a 1-3.1 year med student. I really didn't know if the lifestyle sacrifice was something I was willing to go forward with. However, on my first day of surgical rotation, there was an emergent case of a very young patient who required an open appendectomy (patient was to small for laparoscopic procedure). I was invited to sit in and that single small experience solidified my desire. I was originally thinking neurosurgery, but I'm now leaning more to cardiothoracic, paediatric, or transplant surgery. Definitely not plastics tbh; it's just not something I can see myself enjoying that much. What I really want to do is operate on conjoined twins, or even witness an operation on conjoined twins. It's been something I've been absolutely fascinated by since I learned of the condition as a small child. I've always been fascinated by the macabre and by physical deformities, for some reason. I think it's partially because I was terrified of them as a child (though I felt awful and still feel awful about that), and I just love working with my hands. I only hope that my grades and ability are good enough to carry me through to residency. The only non-surgical specialty I'd consider is forensic pathology because I love true crime and the macabre

Disclaimer - my dad LOVES his job more than anything and therefore chooses to work more and take more responsibilities and an average cardiothoracic

[@lunabrights4073]

@@danasternik5348 Oh, that sounds awesome! I'm really glad you're willing to speak to me and answer my questions. I want to know...How long did it take for your dad to finally become a certified surgeon? Like, did he study for a decade or more? I'm ready to do the same, but its interesting to know it from a real life surgeons perspective. Plus, I heard that it's difficult because you have to get loans for uni and you wont start earning until a lot later? Is it true that you can't get a lot of free/social life because duty and responsibilities interfere with it a lot? Also, I hope you don't mind me asking this...would you say that he spends a lot of time with you as a family or that his job gets in the way? I myself feel like family and friends are a big part of my life, and I'd like have my own family in the future, so as a career I would want to make sure that I can still give my time to those areas in my life as well. I hope I'm not bombarding you with questions...😊

[@danasternik5348]

@@lunabrights4073 my dad studied medicine in Russia so it's different from the USA, he was in university for 6 years instead of 4 years of college and 4 years of medical school then 7 years of internship and 2 years of fellowship in Minnesota. During internship and fellowship you do get a payed even though it's considered studying so repaying student loans is possible. He doesn't have a lot of social life/family time but then again he chooses to take more responsibilities on himself like being chief resident and publishing articles, it's hard but possible to balance your career as a cardiothoracic surgeon and social life. I know a cardiothoracic surgeon that is also a single mother and she manage to support her 2 kids financially and have enough time to take care of them. Still, you do have to be very efficient and productive to do all of that and you'll probably have to sacrifice something in different areas of your life. Anyway, you're not bombarding me, I'm glad I can help😊

Very proud of him, he got into his dream Highschool and is now working a job to save money for college and other things that will benefit him for the future. He told me when he's sad or bored he watches things that include performing surgery because it makes him feel better and excited. I remember I had asked him a couple of questions and one of them were, "What do you look forward to most in the future?" he replied with "I look forward to achieving my goals in life that benefit me and my family." He also, in a way, likes getting sick because he likes to treat himself as a patient and cure himself. In all, my g is a great guy and I will always be here for him no matter what.

Another potential limitation of being a surgeon is there are activities one may have to refrain from participating in due to the risk of damaging the hands. This includes things like changing a tire because turning the lug wrench could damage the hands. A surgeon (or anyone else) may want to keep an impact wrench in his/her car in case the need to change a tire occurs.

As it seems like it’ll be a fun and exciting adventure (and pays a lot haha) except near the last bit, cause i want a family and all that. anyways yeah i’m only 14 so ill probably forget all about this in a couple weeks. thanks for the video! really helpful 😊I’m sure i’ll figure this out somehow lol

I start my first year of college this fall and I am already excited for medical school. I want to be a surgeon however I am having trouble figuring out my specialty. I am glad that you have these videos posted to give me motivation and what I want to be. I am thinking about trauma surgery but I dont want to stay awake for days on end.

I'm in Year 11, going into college soon. I'll probably end up studying Biology, Chemistry and Computer Science A-Levels and I'm hoping doing those well enough will be enough to get me onto a Uni course which I can use to get into the medical field. Thanks for this video; I think surgery is the right path for me if I commit to medicine.

8:21, i have also started to do all of this, and have started to learn doing things using my left hand since im going to be in med school within an year now and damn, it seems difficult at first, but with practise it gets better

[@AMJ564]

Dr J honestly I feel like you should give a shot at a voice acting if you like that ofcourse !

[@laurentrucksess3262]

One thing important to note that there are now programs that are a direct pathway into vascular surgery as well.

[@Domthefurious]

“So you want to be a Radiologist”! :)

[@totally_not_a_bot]

I chose to be a surgeon because I want to help people, there aren't enough doctors, and precisely slicing people open, removing or repairing things, then closing the up seems kinda fun in the, " Ooh, a challenge!" kinda way. I'm not even close to getting there, though, so it may change.

[@greysanatomy8513]

I want to be a general surgeon when I get older and I'm only 10

[@ashrayk.a7004]

A small correction... Surgery wasn't discovered 100 years ago but they were practised in India more than 2500 years ago. The detailed methods are described in the book shushrutha samhitha ,a book more than 3000 years ago

[@pegaferno4429]
