If you guys are liking these residency vlogs, let me know! 🥳 I’m really enjoying making them. Feel free to hit the like button and subscribe to support the channel 🙏🏻

[@darriontunstall3708]

I enjoy them, I really enjoy learning about anesthesiologist, I really enjoy donating to the anesthesiologist foundation since it was hard for me to go to college because of my cerebral palsy, I really wanted to be a anesthesiologist! Happy birthday man!

[@ChrisRRT]

I really love them!

[@acorndaydreams3706]

Makes my day! Please keep them up.

[@kaylacru]

Please keep making them love the vlogs

[@fatimaakbarpoor5299]

Really love them! Gives me a glimpse into surgical residency 🫣

[@Bulldog75stp]

I'm a surgical RN at a "teaching" hospital. I've seen a lot of residents come through over the last nine years. I must say, you seem so chill. Don't ever lose that enthusiasm! One word of advise, when a senior nurse say they're worried about a patient, listen!

[@aesco510]

Teddy needs his own channel so we can follow both of you on your journeys after this year!!

[@ShaunAndersen]

I totally agree 👀

[@FDmedlabs]

Retired OB here from Oregon--Residency really is more fun than med school, for sure. Enjoy the vlogs--reliving the dream, man.

[@BornAmazing]

It’s really refreshing to see that you guys are so silly and funny and enthusiastic. I never imagine doctors to be like that 😄

[@NDMD]

how do you manage to make surgery look like fun...i was way too busy to record at length like you have lmao

[@ShaunAndersen]

Bro I was taking lessons from you and just taking out the camera pointing and shooting 😂😂

[@Triisane]

It's awesome to see a positive perspective! Feels like a lot of medical content I get in my feed has been about the problems in medicine or doctors quitting. I truly believe what makes or breaks your experience are the people around you and how fun they decide to make the experience. It seems like you have that for sure. Currently Prepping for Step 1 and I'm aiming for Gen Surg so these videos are really exciting to watch! Hope you enjoyed the Birthday brother, looking forward to the next vid!

[@LJStability]

When you get those down times, get your STEP 3 going and get the exam done as soon as possible. I took this advice from a senior and it helped so much.

[@ShaunAndersen]

You're so right! I actually started today 😩

[@shelbyhouston908]

Are you and Deepal on the same rotation for your next block?! You can see how well you work together and the positivity it brings you both…I mean look how happy you are during grueling surgery! Dream Team. Keep up the great work you two. Can’t wait to see more. Really enjoying the vlogs and style. Happy belated birthday!

[@forkkify]

It is soo refreshing to see a video that shows the positive side of working as a resident doctor. My YT feed constantly tries to suggest me videos that only talk about how horrible residency is. I get that there's a lot of difficult things about the job, it just seems like negatives is all people talk about.

[@S.S.Sampath]

I've been really enjoying these vlogs lately!

[@ShaunAndersen]

I’m so glad! :) I’ve been enjoying making vlogs again

[@abdulkhaliqayoubi2270]

where you do your residency bro?

[@aninicolai]

it is so crazy for me to see the differences from country to country, here the last 2 years of med school we have clinical rotations full time and during surgery we do what you do as a first year resident! younger students go too and they look and sometimes get to help too

[@SydneyBrooks1]

I started watching my freshman year in college when I started making my own videos! You have always motivated me to keep making them even if I felt “cringy” lol. Definitely my comfort channel

[@teeresagai]

Happy Birthday Dr. Andersen. Blessings for many more to celebrate. I so enjoy these residency vlogs with you and Deepal.

[@stangy007]

Deepal -"I didn't really choooose this" 😂 that made me actually LOL

[@ShaunAndersen]

Soooo real 😂😂

[@petertravis4048]

Happy birthday stud. Rocking those plates on that leg press. 13:43

What a good change of scenery, Shaun! You're doing so well! :D

[@Bcdf-ei9el]

Thank you very much for getting Dipal to answer my question regarding his tattoo...

[@ShaunAndersen]

Of course!! :)

Happy 28th Birthday 🎉! Glad you’re having fun as a Resident!

Thank you so much 🥳

[@fran0162]

Happy Belated Birthday!!! If you feel rewards, wait until YOU become an attending!!! Life is full of passages...and Im enjoying your guys journey so much!

[@ShaunAndersen]

Thank you!! & I’m sure it’ll feel even better when I’m an attending 😩 but right now I’m definitely happy transitioning into residency!

[@nikolassimo2326]

Happy Birthday Shaun! These residency vlogs are absolutely crucial lol. this year im a senior in hs and HOPEFULLY I do well and get into med school. Your vlogs remind me what im studying for! Keep up the good work!

[@aishaahmed6011]

Happy belated birthday 🎂!!! You have no idea how many peoples day u make better by just uploading these vlogs As a student who want to be a doctor in the future (I’m only 17) I love watching you’re vlogs cause they are soo fun and motivating Keep doing what you’re doing and I’m sure life has soo much in store for you

[@hillarydemello488]

Thank you!! 😊

[@mukulingle4705]

Very Happyy birthddayy Shaun (*belated)... thank you this perspective of residency, the way you portray everything is just so amazing.. and say hi to deepal..

[@kaden697]

Thanks for saying what cases you guys were doing! Was really interesting to hear about them this time.

[@jeniferketelyn5021]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! 😄😄 I'm from Brasil and I love watching yours videos, I'm a nutritionist but i'm studying to be a doctor one day, thanks for this inspiration 💖

[@CoolsBreeze]

Those sandwiches looked so good I might've eaten like 10 of them if I was there lol. I think your love for Depal and his for you is one of the best things to see each of these vlogs lol.

[@ryannetienne2839]

Happy Birthday!! 🎉 10/10 work commute playlist 🤙🏼 Enjoying the residency updates!

Happy Belated Birthday! Just finishing up my gen surgery rotation & it’s been inspiring to see your journey 🙏. Loving the residency vlog !

[@victorspitz9765]

dude, you guys are having a blast, amazing to follow this along… it turns out residency isn’t that much of a horror movie Lol

Happy 28th Birthday! I've really enjoyed your vlogs. keep them coming.

Thank you! Will do! 🥳🥳

[@SaintJamesMed]

Happy Birthday! Residency vlogs are amazing, keep going!

[@reneefletcher1143]

I worked at UC Davis for several years. It was always so interesting seeing the residents. Some were much more confident than others. Would love to see you do a video on dealing with difficult staff MD’s. Some of the Docs seemed so mean or condescending to the Residents.

[@rerect]

"C.Diff is not that bad" is a CRAZY statement! Its a horrible stench!

[@jodollman8136]

Once upon a time I had an intestinal issue soooo bad I was direct admitted because my GP was sure I had C Diff. Turns out I didn't, but I can say if C Diff is that bad or worse, my hearts goes out to those who have it. Never neglect your gut health.

[@michaelp131]

I look forward to watching these videos on my lunch break every Sunday 🏥 🏥

[@ShaunAndersen]

Yayyy!! That makes me so happy 😁

Happy Belated Birthday! Good video

[@ShaunAndersen]

Thank you so much 😀

[@davidthompson1583]

didn't know residency could be fun. guess it just shows how much things have changeed. we worked 120 to 140 hours a week, would have no time for video, not that my consultants at Mayo would have allowed it anyway. Keep enjoying

Keep it up Dr. Andersen!!

[@TheLionman104]

I'm loving the vlogs lately. I do have some questions. 1st one is do you like your Tesla? The 2nd one I have is the answer to question 8 in the vlog (D)? I remember getting my requirements for nursing school done, they wouldn't accept the TB skin test anymore. I had to get the QuantiFERON Gold test.

Hi Shaun - I looked for your video, yesterday. I was sad. I am so happy now. I am a loyal OG follower. Also your videos giving me joy as I can't do much since I have broken or sprained everything from neck all the way down to my ankle and foot. How do you wake up and go to sleep at same time with varying shifts?

[@brandijana-prophetess888]

Happy Birthday!

Thank you!!🙏🏻

[@twishashah85]

Love these vlogs!!! Since you had a strong research background, are you still doing research on the side or are you planning to be a part of research as you move forward in residency?

dude you're working fewer hours than me on an inpatient rotation as an internal medicine intern. my days are 11-12 hours, on unlucky days even longer (for those who aren't familiar, that's 6 days per week)

Which country?

[@gowrishvaka6356]

Happy birthday bro! Also you need to update the caption in your channel description, you're no longer an M4.

[@ShaunAndersen]

Of shoot you’re right 👀 I’ll do that this morning!

[@Sergio_Gomes474]

Found your channel recently and loving it. Just a question, you are residency in surgery buy you are going to specialize in anesthesiology, is that it?

[@Pextin]

Okay the Canadian in me is confused. Did you guys say “poo time” or “poutine”?? I mean, based on my short stint in the OR I definitely have said both of those phrases.

[@megseverywhere]

Please continue making DITL vlogs, share case studies as HIPAA allows you to!

[@ShaunAndersen]

Will do!! :)

[@Taylorvo_]

When u gone home in call what device do u get alerts on? Is it a pager or your phone? And when u go home after a full day of work do u need to study like in meds school or is it just relax until the next day? Also keep up the good work I inspire to be u.

Totally random but your music choice is A+

Gotta play some in too deep in the morning to get you going haha

Hello Shaun, I live in Las Vegas and have enjoyed your journey. What HS did you attend here?

Hey that’s awesome! I went to centennial :) hbu?

[@cristianvillasilvas3457]

I would like to think the answer is C. 15:08

[@PeteDiscafani]

Weird question.. but I’m undergrad as a bio major with intentions to apply to med school. I work as a nurse assistant in a hospital and my shifts are 7-7.. assuming ur not on call, when are your shifts and what time do you go to bed? Appreciate all your videos!

[@CharleyBownds-io5rp]

what do you do for residency I really want to be in residency when im older im only 15 but like is it fun for you when you do it

Hi Doc! im a new fan of your vlogs its very entertaining and fun.❤I admire how surgeons courageously deal with blood with specific time to accomplish..I wish your my neighbor so i could verify if my heartbeat is beating right haha😅 😇Happy Birthday!!🎉

[@danielavargas3259]

When you’re not on call, do you get to go home once you are done with cases?

Isn't it called a fellowship

Now, you explain your tattoo ;). Also, need more deepal insights. Can you ask him why engineering didn't work out?

Who takes care of your 2 dogs with the long days you have? Hopefully you have a dog walking service that comes midday and walks them. That’s what I did when I had long days at the hospital. Don’t forget about your fur babies!

how to become residensty doctor?

Not to compare but that really is leaving early from work. I’m in my second year of orthopedics residency in Mexico. In my first year I used to start at 4 too, but I finished at night. It was hell, so enjoy cause it seems cool!

[@ShaunAndersen]

I guess what I mean it’s not leaving early compared to other 9-5 jobs 😂 but compared to ortho, then definitely! Best of luck in your second year!
