Who am I:
My name is Zach. I’m a Resident Physician in Boston. I make videos about medical school, studying, and growth. I love trying new things and often mess up. However, every time I screw up, I usually learn something. Whatever I learn, I post it either on KZbin or on my website 🌐 (zhighley.com/​​).
I write a weekly newsletter 💌 (zhighley.com/n...) linking the best things I read, watched, and listened to that week. Join the 4,000+ that read it every other Sunday morning.

I'm a retired physician in the UK 🇬🇧 Great to see your passion, enthusiasm and excitement for medicine and to see that you are applying yourself diligently and working hard. Watching this brought back many happy memories of when I was at your stage doing my medical training in London, England. I think you'll make a great doctor :) P.S. I see you've now graduated and are now a qualified doctor. Many congratulations.

[@gilberttagufa414]

Your excitement for medicine is contagious! Congrats on graduation!

[@HelpMePrep]

Hey zach! Hell of a video man! When do you start residency ?? Congrats bro!!!

[@HeartFarts]

Oh also, I'd love to hear your opinion on whether or not the heart is a sort of brain on its own. Always wondered if there was really something to, "listen to your heart."

[@embyrio]

When did you match into IM you haven't told us 😑😑

[@sophiaisabelle01]

Keep working hard, Zach. We will always support you.

[@vatsaljain8997]

[@alexl.7795]

I think you should make a whole video talking about heart, that would be very beneficial to a lot of audience. :D

[@ZachHighley]

haha I don't think I know enough to make one of those videos

[@alexl.7795]

You will, I know it. Come on!! :D

[@nickmcdonald3083]

Any advice for someone just starting med school trying to match competitively ?

[@ZachHighley]

(if in US) grades are less important now, pass step 1, absolutely crush step 2 and m3 rotations, pursue some interests around medicine whether that is research or some other academic pursuit around medicine

[@vietsangho6367]

Love❤ you

[@CliffYudkoff]

but youre not a med student anymore???

[@Ark-7i2go8wha5es]

Like it

[@reddbendd]

Books, homework, tests. Then, finally, after an entire lifetime, people aren’t bossing you around anymore. You’re the guy who’s supposed to know everything and if you don’t know what’s wrong with the patient you’re a F
