Just wanted to say a big thanks for making this video as it really gives a clear and honest insight into the life of a junior doctor. For any people aspiring to be doctors, this is the video that will 100% change their perspective and thoughts. This would lock anyone in to do what you do, it’s just amazing to see how you and the team of HCPs help people and it’s great to see from a doctors perspective and not a patients. Also all the organisation tips and explanations are literal gold for anyone wanting to be or is a doctor. Thank you

[@ranju.6693]

I absolutely love these videos. You have been a great motivation for me to push through Med school after feeling really discouraged and unworthy. Thank you.

[@darky5792]

I remember the days when you kept motivating us to study hard in your medical school and seeing you getting here finally ! So proud .

[@Amamayoyo]

Discovered your channel a long while ago and it's amazing how we've seen you work hard to get to here and it's all fallen into place now! 'It feels so good to be a doctor', that's how I feel sometimes as a medical student when I help a patient or contribute to their care. It feels so good! So proud of you Nasir 🧡

[@junew4090]

here to share the most happiest moment of my life at this point .... i cleared my final year dental exam with the highest marks i scroed in all four years !!!!! during all those sleepless nights what kept me going were your study with me videos ...ill forever be grateful for you because i survived the hardest of the days by watching those and studying nonstop ...your videos motivated me and kind of consoled me that there is someone out there preparing for an exam and giving his best so if hes doing it ,then i cant sit back and relax ...to all those infinite number of " im a final year med student and... preparing for an upcoming exam " and to our successes 🍻

[@dancebasedancer]

I really LOVE this positive report of your week in the life of a Doctor working in London! I've watched your vids for a long time, and I so admire your diligence and focus, and the fact that you manage to do OTHER things in addition to being a doctor - like seeing an old friend, or going to the gym. Not everyday but on SOME days! Brilliant. What I particularly love about this video above, is that there seem to be SO many videos made by doctors in their last years at med school, saying how run down the NHS is and how they are going to go abroad to work, often to Australia or America. PLEASE stay here some of you brilliant doctors! I know it's really tough atm, but we need you! You are all amazing and we all need to help to get the NHS back up on its feet, after these exhausting and underfunded last years... Your positivity is so lovely to see, Kharma Medic!

[@littleangel4024]

I love how you keep explaining medical things, as a first year med student I'm gaining more and more useful medical knowledge through your videos! ❤

[@Fatima_316]

It's amazing to see your transition from student to working doctor. So proud of you and inspired by you!

Apart from med school stuff what i have observed through these videos qnd your way of talking to others is that you're really kind and compassionate you deserved to be A great dr 👍 MaShaAllah

I really like you because you became consistent in your work and complete med school and don't leave it most of people do it after earning so much from other sources I really get so motivated to see you consistent on your job

I watch your videos for a long time now. It’s so exciting to see that you’re finally working as a doctor. You worked so hard for it. I had a gap year because of personal issues but since September I finally started school again. First year of nursery, and I love it. I can’t wait until I can work in the hospital or other work fields. Congratulations! ❤

[@didyharuno94]

sooo happy to see u again in a vlog plz do this whenever you can it's an absolute banger

[@lekoneje]

I'm from México and I'm really surprised by the things we have in common and by the things that are actually different. The job list for example is almost the same in every hospital, including the diagonal, etc. The fact that you consider a long shift being 12 hrs is amazing; our long shifts are usually more than 36 hours of continous work. Interns usually don't get paid, not even a cent, and other lucky ones earn at most 75 dls monthly approx. Residents earn at most 750dls monthly, and the shifts are really mad in terms of continous hour working. You guys truly live a huge privilege at your countries as doctors. Hope our country can change for good in not so long.

[@LuchoCabreera]

I LOVE seen your enthusiasm working as a Doctor!! Personally, this videos help me so much... I´m form Argentina and I´m thinking of doing my residency in the UK. It´s awsome to see the insides of the healthcare system through you. Much love.

[@bahmed1614]

Loved this video, was very insightful - I still feel nervous about starting as an F1 next August. The car discussions on topics like jobs list were really useful!! It’s crazy how time flies, you might not remember but me and you were the students in theatre watching Heller myotomy for a patient with achlasia, both wearing 3D glasses, and now you’re a doctor!!

Hey Dr. Kharma! I'm a High-school kid that has dreamed of pursuing the medical field before I could even remember. I would watch your videos like: How you studied before exams, how you took notes, or how you used notion, and apply them to my daily life. I've noticed my life just became so much easier because I don't just rely on my brain to remember things, or be stressed before a test because of the lack of preparation anymore. I just wanted to let you know that your videos help me a lot, and keep my motivation for pursuing the medical field, so thank you very much!

[@kamogelomaile]

[@b.k2184]

My daughter just started her FY1 training like you in August in a London trust hospital. She is feeling really overwhelmed and disheartened by the whole process. The ward she is on is constantly short staffed. At one point she was the only F1 in charge of 2 wards. There has been days where she has had no lunch or toilet break which obviously effects your performance and concentration. It just breaks my heart that she went through all that stress through med school and exams etc to find out that she doesn't want to be in that profession anymore. Even though she is still in the early stages of her training she is convinced that she is going to quit after FY2 is over. No matter how much I convince her that it will get better once she finds her feet and gets used to the whole hospital environment she is adamant that this is not for her.
