I’ve found new motivation to keep pushing through med school lol but seriously you and your friend are ridiculously adorable and you’ve got a beautiful smile so don’t let it fade! Your vlogs are fun and straight to the point you keep it real unlike a lot of doctors and med students on social media And I’m obsessed with your taste in music! I need your playlist ASAP fr

[@KZX41]

I am a medicine student from Saudi and I can’t get enough of your videos man with all the advice and experiences you’ve been through. I just wanted you to know that your vids matter keep going and I wish you all the best bro🐐🤍

I haven’t seen it before but I keep hearing about it!

[@bluejack287]

@@ShaunAndersen Oh man, absolutely need to watch ER at some point. So damn good.

[@BK-vu7qg]

I cant rmb which video u said this in (maybe it was this one?), but u said how ur 28 as a first yr resident and will be an anaesthesiology attending by 31. This is absolutely amazing!!! In Australia it would take around 10 years after medical school to be an anaesthesiology attending because it is sooooo competitive. Hats off to u Shaun!

[@fran0162]

OMG!! Love the song at the beginning of the vlog!! I was re-watching your push up challenge yesterday and I was thinking " Wow, look how far Shaun has come!" Great video!!

I feel your struggle with getting back into the grove or practice questions/studying. In cybersecurity, it’s never ending certifications and at the end of the day of looking at my screen all day last thing I want to do is study LOL

[@ChrisRRT]

Love these! Hey out of curiosity would it be possible for in a future vlog avoid patient privacy and HIPAA but like give us an example of what kind of things you see as a resident on cardiology what kinds of workups you do a lot on patients you haven't seen etc? I think it'd be really interesting to hear the doctor side of how they approach a case versus how I approach them as a RT

[@ShaunAndersen]

I definitely can give some examples! I keep meaning to in my vlogs but I get nervous about what I should and shouldn’t say and always try to be careful 😅

[@ChrisRRT]

@@ShaunAndersen yeah I definitely understand that I love watching these types of vlogs like your vlogs, violin MD vlogs, etc it's really incredible and I really wanted to get into vlogs but my hospital has strict policy about filming inside the hospital all together and of course there is HIPAA so it makes it hard to vlog anything about my work

[@ElaineSharon358]

I loved scrubs.. you doggies are adorable ❤

[@darriontunstall3708]

Good vlog man, I really enjoy donating to the anesthesiologist Foundation, since it was hard for me to go to college because of my cerebral palsy, it takes a special person to be a anesthesiologist or CRNA and you’re one of them! I look up to all anesthesiologist and CRNA! I love your Tesla , I love electric cars! Have you heard about the all electric ford t3 pickup that’s coming out in 2026? I love Starbucks too

[@allymiller1]

Q&A questions: 1. What is the most difficult thing so far in residency? 2. What has been your favorite speciality so far? 3. Will Deepal be going to San Diego as well? 4. How is your mental health right now? 5. If you could be any other speciality besides anesthesia, what would it be?

[@ShaunAndersen]

I’ll definitely answer these in the Q&A :) thank you!!

[@Baraa.K.Mohammad]

Ok bro... the snacks in your program are crazy! If I wasn't an IMG I actually would be making my ROL based on stuff like that, lol! Also, I'd a friend back in medschool who'd freak out listening to your playlist. It's like you downloaded the same music preferences into your brains when you were born. edit: 11:24 oh my god! I was literally about to scroll down to comment this, hahaha! I knew it! Scrubs really seems like the closest a medical TV could get to real life residency!

[@mukulingle4705]

The smile on your face after a golden weekend is crazyy.. loved the scrubs reference.. for QnA: does your current hospital or the one in san diego have opportunities for electives for IMGs?

@ShaunAndersen Yes! I think you'll like it. I believe it was showing on NBC on Thursday evenings, but it may have changed. Otherwise you can also probably find it on Hulu, as well. It's a great show.
