Literally he's 43 and is one of the only laid back fun doctors I know on KZbin! Your kids must be proud!

[@ShivamSharma-zd8lw]

he doesn't have kids, maybe his dog

[@waelv8]

He is 43 holy fuck! He looks 33! Must be taking good care of himself since early years!

[@JacobMDittman]

Umm doctor mike 👋🏻 he’s hella chill!

[@JenniTulls]

Beard makes you look mature, no beard makes you look younger, it depends on what look you're going for. Your hair looks great the way it is.

[@saradinnell1803]

You came from a Caribbean med school and went up to a freaking fellowship with NASA for space trauma...dude...GOALS as the kids say.

[@marydethmary9721]

He went to the Caribbean

[@ast1848]

Beard always! Hair- tight fade on the sides, grow the top

[@nighatparveen4813]

But nottoo high

[@elwhy69]

i wouldnt go too high, especially for his face shape. he already has a slimmer face, you wouldnt want your face too look too long.

[@faisalrabia1862]

dude you look 27 ... stop saying you are 40 something ...

[@drbuckparker]

Haha thanks!!!

[@leayahmalik420]

Thought he was like 32

I've been binge watching this guy and I only found out about him yesterday. When I clicked the first video I thought it would be another boring, lifeless advice video but this guy is actually really interesting

[@velpulabhavani6961]

Yeahhh

[@willybROFL]

Dude you did a fckn 'space trauma' fellowship? That is literally one of the coolest things I've ever heard. Beard looks good bro, keep the hair tight. Big up from the UK :)

[@jaredd4108]

Yes finally what i have been waiting for! 😊 More determined to go to med school and be a surgeon someday

[@primalinstinct4758]

DrBuck I hope you're doing well. The people need your kickass guidance back

[@scienceguy42]

Can we use ultra sound on the space station? *does research with NASA* ..."you pretty much can"

[@juliamihajlovich]

OMG! Space trauma?! So freaking cool!

[@rr.studios]

This made me laugh for the wrong reason.

[@cvdp8665]

Can you do a video on how to prepare for residency as a med student? Maybe a few key points of things we absolutely have to know in order to not be thrown out on day one?

[@papajonespizza426]

Hes 43!!!???? He literally looks like 28...man i wish i was this handsome

[@XTheXRizzaX]

Hair looks good as is but beard looks mature where as clean is young. Stubble I find is the best in between

[@drbuckparker]

thanks!

[@olivermulvin576]

Height is perfect, sides look pretty cool tight and I think light stubble suits you best.. Oh and also good video

[@afuaaidoo2763]

Am i d only one who thinks he's hilarious ? "Doctor stuff"…😂

[@eraykoc5305]

I want to say thank you for these information about the genaral surgery 👍

[@AZMDfierce889]

you look great.

[@wadoloerjabo123]

How competitive is getting a cardiothoractic residency

[@iamJuxen]

you have to get a residency in general surgery first then fellowship into cardiothoracic

[@shaykay1079]

No, now there are direct entry CT residencies and those are CRAZY competitive. I can't give you exact #'s but I know vascular & plastics (the other 2 direct entry programs) have like 1/3 of available spots as there are applicants. Not to discourage you bc if that's your dream you'll make it happen.

[@rezab7961]

we're in the same boat!!!

[@wholeNwon]

I was offered it out of the blue...one of the best hospitals in the country. Declined.

[@danielkulinich4761]

How is you life outside of work during surgical residency? Also any tips to maintain your health and get enough sleep, or is that also sacrificed lol? Gracias

[@itsjustgettingeasier1843]

It is my question, too😂

[@wholeNwon]

You're there to become a surgeon...the ONLY opportunity like that you will EVER have. NOTHING else matters then.

[@trishl707]

" They drive Ferrari's and I drive an....Audi" LOL. Boo-hoo. Love you, Buck!

[@yeldarbjenkins7495]

That NASA fellowship sounds awesome 👅

[@190sahil]

Dear good sir!! your beard is absolutely fantastic!!

[@zuluking18]

Is it possible for an IMG to match into plastics, or start with general surgery residency and then bridge into plastics?

[@corgisrule21]

NASA fellowship...I'm dead (so please talk more about that! haha). That's pretty much the coolest thing I've ever heard in my life-and as a critical care nurse, I've heard some pretty cool stuff :P

[@drbuckparker]

hahaha. ok i'll do a vid on it

[@Kencan254]

How is a resident evaluated? Any exams, clinical observations?

[@Missdee25dee]

Hello Mr. Parker, if you had to do an Laparoscpic surgery on your patient with keloid skin. What would you do to avoid scarring?

[@hhhh-yo5oc]

hey, im 14, and i wanna be a nuerosurgeon when i grow up. how competitive is that specific feild? what can i do to prepare?

[@wholeNwon]

Highly. Go to a good medical school.

[@PeeedaPan]

can you make a video about the topics to master before starting internship?

[@wholeNwon]

Med. school !

[@JB-cn1if]

Hey Dr. Buck!! Are you planning on taking another fellowship? Why or why not?

[@kedarkulkarni8742]

Could you probably give some input on some other residencies if possible , including how it is to match , especially some like radiology and perhaps neurology ?

[@karo5b]

But un what year do they actually the residents start to to get “good” at operating??

[@nellyb743]

"I'm jealous of them because they're making so much more money than I am and driving Ferraris while I'm driving an umm Audi." Bruh...haha. Complaining of an Audi? How low you've fallen 😂 😜 /s

[@andrewbevington4250]

About how much time did you have for your family or friends? Is it even possible to keep up relationships while in residency?

[@lizp.8558]

Hi Dr. Parker! I am a 3rd yr med student seriously considering surgery residency. I am actually really looking into the integrated 6 year CT surgery residency (I6 program). Do you have any opinion on going that route vs. general surgery? Thanks!! Also- yes beard and short on sides, longer on top, aka just how you have it looks great!

[@strongDr]

So?

[@Henry-oh5kz]

What did you choose

[@lizp.8558]

@@Henry-oh5kz Haha so in a major turn of events I did a Pediatric ICU rotation later that year, fell in love with it after a long decision-making crisis, did Pediatric residency and now am in my first year of PICU fellowship!

Would you suggest being a general surgeon or specialize in a certain type of surgery?

[@srosellerjr]

I wanna be a surgeon someday, just like you.

Yes to the beard! And your hair looks great like this!

[@georgeflores9387]

hey man any advice for things to notice during interviews that might become relevant? right in the middle of interview season and any advice is welcomed

[@Sami-cn9pe]

Do the international students have a high chance to be involved in a surgical programs especially GS? And also if they have a chance what is the safe side in step 1 marks?

[@deyb6440]

Do you still go to school if you want to to become a surgeon? Thank you

[@matthewwilliams602]

Yes. Being a full fledged surgeon can take a toll on life. 4 years of college, 4 years of medical school, 4-7 years surgery residency, 1-3 years of fellowship.

[@wholeNwon]

The process is CONTINUOUS.

[@unseen8134]

If u apply as an IMG to residency do u have to do internship before ?

You look FABULOUS! Beard is symbol of wisdom, knowledge. It makes guys to look manly, masculine, and mature. You don't want to look like a kid playing to be a doctor. Remember only time gives you experience!

Please make a video about upcoming doctors with tattoos. I would love to get a meaningful half sleeve soon.any thoughts??

In some programs you will NOT be viewed favorably.

Can you work PRN as a physician?

Sure. Work as little or as much as you want but be a GOOD physician. Too many hacks doing part-time work.

I guess when you're talented, smart, wealthy, and good looking, you can get away with being cocky enough to ask KZbin to give you praise on your appearance. Must be nice. Don't let it go to your head.
