14:34 what does this differ from other sub specialties The center I used to work with is mainly a specialist center where the colorectal surgeon would remove the cancer (it’s a cancer treating center mainly) So how does an oncology surgeron differ from a colorectal surgeon in tumor resection ? If I had to guess it would be oncology surgeon is like a jack of all trades in tumors where as a colorectal is only in the colorectal area of tumor resection
7:33 I think you did ENT wrong in these sub specialities What I know is rhinology can do cosmetic procedures that would be better done through an ENT than a plastic surgeon as ENT people care about also function but plastic surgeries wouldn’t care about it much (that’s what my ENT mentor told me anyone you wouldn’t do a nice job to the nose of your spouse if she ends up snoring at night he’s referring to the difference between a plastic surgeon doing the job vs an ENT) They also do Skull base fellowship and essentialy can take complex cases from A-Z without a neurosurgeon, there are centers where schwannoma can be fixed up by ENT without neurosurgery specialists
Amazing comment . Just started scribing at an ENT hospital and it is SO AWESOME. I always since I was 10 years old said I’ll be a neurosurgeon, but I’m learning so much so fast in ENT and it is such a vital and honestly honorable job and service to society.
Nice people, consolidate to 20 surgical subspecialties. Mergers allows doctors greater work-life-balance. In addition, it could reduce attrition in the profession.
Im 16, and Im getting to the point where I need to consider college. Ever since I was 7, I've dreamed of being a doctor. That has (mostly) stayed consistent, and I feel like it's time I need to do more research into it. Thank you for giving such a useful, informative video.
Thanks for watching! We have many videos dedicated to helping students decide if medicine is the right path for them, including our So You Want to Be series, which digs deep into the various different medical career paths you can choose form. ru-vid.com/group/PL2ADAFpTg5aaDaa9GX90-DO0aBsGLY8jQ
If you were in medical school or knew anything about the field you’d know that urologists spend the majority of their time in the OR doing surgery. In fact it is the most technologically advanced field when it comes to surgery.
If you wanted to be meticulous, you could theoretically say that almost every specialty is surgical to some extent, especially with fellowships. Family Medicine OBs can do surgical deliveries. PM&R doctors can do Interventional Spine, which involves surgical repair of spinal decompressions. EM doctors can do an emergency Thoracotomy to gain access to the heart. Heck, even Neurology can be slightly surgical for, say, aneurysm coiling in a Neuro-Surgery/Radiology Fellowship.
They are interesting because they typically don't go to medical school. They're usually DDS or DMDs that go to a residency after dental school. However, some programs do a hybrid dental-medical approach.
How do you become a neonatologist? Do you need to have completed a pediatric surgery residency or is it something you can pursue as an obgyn? Is there a third option im missing?
You need to do a residency in pediatrics first, then do a fellowship in neonatology. If you're asking about neonatal surgery, then you need to do a residency in general surgery first, then do a fellowship in pediatric surgery. After completing that, do another fellowship in neonatal surgery.
@@theashwoodfaerie2 It means that if surgeons of any specialty begin earning very high wages (ordinary income) of at least $300,000 a year on average, which are heavily taxed, can only do so for about 20 years; given that by the time they complete the undergraduate years, medical school and then residency both in surgery and in the "surgical sub-specialties," they would be at least 35 years old or more (55 years - 35 years = 20 years). Considering that such a surgeon pays at least 50% or more of one's income in taxes to the government, working an average of 55 hours a week or more, which is an average of 2,860 hours a year, it would amount to an average of just $52.45 per hour, as the take home pay during a lifetime of work. ($300,000 x 50% = $150,000 divided by 2,860 hours a year = $52.45). Also (55 hours a week x 52 weeks in a year = 2,860 hours a year). You can see why these highly dedicated surgeons may not be taxed fairly, even though they earn well above average wages, but only for a limited time of just 20 years after many years in training. Their years in training should be taken into consideration when being taxed since they are hard-pressed to create any wealth at all to pass on. No wonder that no physician has ever accumulated at least a billion in wealth as a medical practitioner.
@@theashwoodfaerie2 Only 20 years of work, beginning at 35 years of age, are not enough to create any wealth to pass on, given that their WAGES (ordinary income) are heavily taxed.
you have to match into a US residency program and complete it. then get board certification in the US. Taking USMLE is the first step to even applying.
All of them? Have you seen our all medical specialties and subspecialties explained video (Part 1 and 2)? We also have a video for all IM specialties explained.
