Spend 48 hours with Dr. Betsy Grunch, Neurosurgeon

[@glorias.2930]

Something needs to change in the medical field. How can they expect doctors to function on such little sleep?!

[@alliesteph6274]

There are a lack of doctors that’s the problem.

[@krissykris1302]

Great question. I was wondering the same thing

[@gabbyclark1963]

My bf and I love your videos. We’re both military and work crazy hours but yours are all over the place! Lots of respect to you and what you do, especially how you treat your patients. Thank you for sharing your days with all of us!

[@sarahkingston7421]

Girl you are a beast... I cant function on anything less than 7 hours sleep....insane .

[@LeslieStead]

Holy hell!!!!! I knew you were a Wonder Woman but WOW!!!!! You’re truly amazing.

[@faithseymour982]

Damn your incredible and fun and so good. Best is your mother is so proud!! God Speed ❤

[@debracoulter1250]

You do more in a couple days than I do in a week! 😊

[@kadenhiggins9338]

I don’t know how you do all of that! I worked nights as an RN and it literally made me crazy. The lack of sleep caused auditory hallucinations

[@glorias.2930]

That's so scary!

[@kadenhiggins9338]

@@glorias.2930 it was! I thought I was hearing someone’s radio playing. Like a talk radio. But couldn’t find where it was coming from. Then I started having panic attacks and was hospitalized and told a dr about what I was hearing and she said it was auditory hallucinations. I had to quit working. I’m on disability now.

[@glorias.2930]

@@kadenhiggins9338 I'm familiar and my heart goes out to you. I had a close relative go through something similar. Sending you a big hug. I pray you are doing better now. ❤️ This is not a joke. I just don't understand how the medical field doesn't have a better system. Am I missing something?! *sigh*

[@kadenhiggins9338]

@@glorias.2930 I agree. I worked with a dr who worked so many hours and was so tired he fell asleep driving home and wrecked. He died and killed 2 people in the other car. It’s just too much for these drs. It’s not safe!

[@sheajohnson7037]

I’m sos sorry you experienced this, but I totally believe it with how much working nights can work against you. Did you notice any other health issues? I’ve noticed a HUGE increase in migraines, severe nausea and really bad fatigue. I use to love to work out, eat and spend the day doing things. Now I can’t do any of them bc of how much working nights has affected me.

[@green_willowtree]

How do you function with no sleep? How is it safe to operate?

[@Leelee-op7vj]

She's on auto pilot. I think after all that you get wired so she does great on the hustle, hustle.

[@riderpsychopate]

Some people don't need a lot of sleep as well.

[@crispywalters4431]

Adrenaline and amazing skills 😊

[@mistyevans8160]

Look back at a video for resident hrs. Her body is trained to do so. Many years of training. She also takes the time to rest on her days off and the on call she just said was 1 day per 6.

[@mindofjerry5476]

That’s American healthcare

[@lauraohio]

[@cynthiatait7708]

YOU are the BOMB! A Smarty and a BUSY Soul. Take care of YOU!! ❤

[@LexiLucifer]

Just wow.

[@sophiarose56]

Holy crap I did not know you lived in Atlanta !!! Born and raised in Walton county if I ever need any spinal or neck surgery you’ll be where I go !!

[@Familylawgroup]

Can you do minimally invasive cervical fusions? I would travel to see you if that type of procedure is a possibility. I admire how great you look despite being exhausted. Wow. Adrenaline is a powerful chemical, isn’t it?

[@Jennifer-pi6ty]

Are you human!! How do you function on no sleep! You are amazing! I love your videos❤

[@MistySprinkle-f4y]

“I’ll sleep 💤 when I’m ☠️” Dr. Betsy Grunch😂

[@glorias.2930]

I appreciate all you do Dr. Grunch but how on earth did you function with one hour of sleep? I realize this is just the way it is in the US but does not seem safe. If I only sleep 2-4 hours, I am dizzy, nauseous and can't think clearly (I'm in my 30s, by the way).

[@danastonerock]

Same. I'm no good to anyone or thing if I get less than 6 hours and that's QUALITY sleep. Everyone is different but these videos don't tell the whole story. Remember that. These are glimpses .

[@NoraNora-bp6mt]

Is your self talk/ inner monologue as calm?! 😂 Working 12.5hr shifts in urgent care/internal medicine in a country with waaay better social/working system/ restricted working hours in europe... and i'm still struggling anyway😂

[@angelahayden4324]

You are a beast! I love your videos! 💪

[@physicianskitchen]

I had a few instances where I slept only 1 hour at night and I was not myself at all the next day. I can't imagine doing it regularly and with such a high demanding profession as well

[@successgoalsIINAcademy]

How how. How how how do you manage? What are you doing to have so much energy, advice please

[@danastonerock]

I know this is s glimpse into her day(s) but i still feel as though as a society, we are glamorizing the hustle, lack of sleep, busy busy, overly ambitious, competitive lifestyles. Everyone is different of course and functions differently day to day, but for me, i neer the quality sleep and if i dont habe to add more to my to-do list, the better. Just food for thought ❤

[@NiaAmaron]

Blessings upon you sincerely, you run on little to no sleep!

[@JND-zf4sg]

Betsy, I need a nap after all that!

[@piyushsoni05]

I want this life.

[@snacks12345]

Holy crap.

[@Dreamberrymaiden]

Busy bee ! 🐝

[@pamelagabert4709]

I'm curious. Do neurosurgeons still have a high risk of kidney stones?

[@yellowdayz1800]

Anyone does if they eat a bad diet.. We need more fruits and vegetables to avoid kidney stones.

[@muskaanfarooq-mw3lj]

I love u ❤😊

[@JennyPadron92]

This totally discouraged me from going into medicine 🥲
