Now’s my time to shine

We will shine. Dnt worry.

[@arielsanchez4690]

Definitely a lot of stigma against calling yourself introverts. Glad you addressed that. Well said

[@PepsiT98]

You think so? I feel as though introversion has become the new “cool”. I’m speaking as an extrovert lol

[@_linlin_]

Nah, it's a trend now

I’m a huge introvert and a loner but I do want to be in internal medicine, and be an ID specialists because that’s the main source of social interactions I need. Partying it out or going for drinks with colleagues at a very populated bar is not my deal but I always appreciate a casual conversation while in office

[@thefenerbahcesk4156]

Based on my Internal Medicine experience so far, you spend most of your time in a cramped room sitting in front of a computer staring at patients charts. Honestly, its kind of depressing ... but yeah you definitely don't have to be an extrovert for the specialty.

[@truthteller2711]

@@thefenerbahcesk4156 is this for general IM or also specialties such as neurology?

[@thefenerbahcesk4156]

@@truthteller2711 General. Specialties are mostly clinical - you meet a certain patient at a certain time.

[@willm678]

Something like being an extrovert or introvert does not bar you from doing a certain thing or having a certain profession. I’m pretty introverted but my dream career is in surgery.

[@nowrings]

I've been watching your videos since high school. And my dream actually came true. Now I'm in medical college.

[@shope1426]

Introvert and hoping to do surgery, so happy to see it here considering the stereotypes of surgeons :)

[@vans4lyf2013]

I say i'm ambiverted but lean towards being an introvert. Interactions with colleagues drain me a lot more than interactions with patients, so I prefer clinical specialties where I can help one patient at a time.

[@gavinlotito4634]

a lot of doctors i’ve worked with are painfully quiet and awkward lol

[@sandrixx666]

Woowhoo!! During the shelter in place/lock down I decided to go back to school(switch industry) & finish what I started! After watching this I’m really happy I made the right choice 😅 I can’t wait to reach that finish line!!😊

[@oliverdowdall]

I love these videos as I am looking at a career in Anesthesiology later on. Thank you!

[@trigonometrisk]

I don’t disagree with the suggestions in this video, but I also don’t want people that assume that introversion has to mean as few social interactions as possible. I’m very strongly introverted, but i feel that if I had to practice pathology I may as well just quit medicine altogether. Rather, I want to make sure that the patient interactions I have are meaningful and require time, empathy and patience (preferrably management of chronic and terminal disease).

[@SLPtoMD]

Agreed!! Introversion just means we need time alone to recharge vs time with people to recharge. This video seems very stereotypical to me.

[@St_r_i_v_e]

Never knew I needed this video!

[@pinetris9244]

Video: "Introversion and extroversion is not black and white." Me who scored 100% in introversion in psych tests all the time: 😶

[@communistpancake8869]

Could you guys possibly do some videos on subspecialties in different fields? I’m a freshman in college but I want to be a cardiothoracic surgeon and subspecialize in heart&lung transplants. I think they’d be helpful!

[@Popularmango10245]

I used to delude myself into thinking I wanna be a surgeon make money talk less to people. But its not intellectually challenging its more technical work requires manual dexterity, long hours, vast years of learning. I think I wanna go for interventional cardiology critical care vause that combines medicine with surgery

[@mrx4814]

I thank you for saying that, so in your opinion what is the most intellectually challenging field in medicine?

[@jackyjack9660]

I don't think so.. Just pick up cases which are not usual than others... But are you really for fun into medicine? Rather than being able to help people? House md?

[@jackyjack9660]

@@mrx4814 I guess that's internal medicine..

[@nanasheartss]

I’m introverted however find I become super friendly when with kids. Wanna go somewhere into peds (definitely sub specializing).

[@somatoes4667]

Hm… I personally disagree with some points in this video, but I know it might be helpful for other introverts out there. There are just so many different types of introverts it’s hard to generalise us all. I am an introvert and the one aspect of medicine that draws me in is the one-on-one patient interaction. So clinic settings really attract me and even medical specialties, where ward rounds are longer because you spend more time talking to the patients and getting to know them are more in line with what I want. Surgery on the other hand, is daunting because i’ve been in theatre and surgeons have to speak up often and work with a variety of other professionals. It just seems like a nightmare to me lol.

[@enfernape1661]

I thought I'm a introvert i can't be a doctor but now i think here's light.

[@henrysavior5471]

I heard their are pathology based options for some people other than hands on medicine.Pathology seems interesting of a lab career track and sounds exciting

[@med-girl]

1. Radiology 2. Pathology 3. Anesthesiology 4. Surgeon (don’t agree on this one $ -non clinical - anatomy, physiology, biochemistry professors and teachers in medical schools

[@fredwinslow744]

Social battery yes. Work battery not really With respect to the list. Psychiatry is an extremely good area from point of view of quality of care for patient yet maybe less so for dr and hence not on list The confident introvert will have a large battery for intimate yet detached attention towards one on one patient work. Which is what psychiatry is about While the five above allow the down time from. “Draining social interaction while working and they do allow for reserve for the rest of the drs social world Where the extrovert will be less drained in psychiatry the introvert will be still as mentioned lower on the social energy that remains and this is why perhaps the other 5 allow the greater reserves You may find yourself liking and Valuing your work as a psychiatrist but you will not look forward to it the way an extrovert might It is a conundrum resolved objectively if one considers that the introvert may be most inclined and do the most focussed work yet that is more about the quality of the work not the life of the dr Good video

[@chelseaali1155]

Love this video !

[@Pulmonary.Tuberculosis]

Would love to pursue Anesthesiology, the only concern is the long years of education required (and money to pay tuition).

[@sbakst]

To be fair, most medical specialities require a long education (and money, unless you live in a country where education is free/subsidized)

[@malekhourani8213]

Hello! Since both neurology and internal medicine start of as PGY-1, can I switch between one residency and the other without having to match again ?

[@malikfaisal7679]

Radiology

[@oliverdowdall]

radiology definitely

[@Alex-op4ty]

None of them or all of them. By the time AI is advanced enough for medical decision making we would all be out of a job. Too many false positives now and the technology won't be there for a while. Radiology will be hot for the forseeable future

Slightly extroverted

Oh hell no surgery is not for introverts. Do you think Surgeons spend their time only in the OR? They have clinic, postop, followups, and a WHOLE LOT of patient care and interaction. This is absolutely laughable.
