Bill is the Jack of all trades but master of none. Specialists always criticize him, but they all love working with him. Specially with his good personality.
@UC9glOFFU2pOgIYBZDgs3SJg I think Jonathan and Bill will get along quite nicely, Because they’re exactly the opposite. Jonathan excels in getting work done, while Bill is always confused and clumsy. Meanwhile Jonathan doesn’t get appreciated a lot (more like considered as a tool rather than a human) and I think Bill would be the perfect person to show him appreciation after Jonathan helps him once. It would be so wholesome to see.
@@cheshire9014 If Johnathan went into medicine, what career track would he choose. If he were a nurse then I am going with cardiology, he would be labelling all those lines like a fiend
@@KatherynneF - Once in a while, we all need someone to tell us, in a firm and undeniable manner, that we have our heads where the sun never shines, because everyone ends up like that once in a while. It doesn't have to involve profanity, name-calling, or anything like that. If that's never happened to you at least once or twice, then either you're living a very boring, colorless life, or the people around you don't care about you as much as you might think.
@@JohnnyWishbone85 "It doesn't have to involve profanity or name-calling" - huh? Are we not talking about discipline here? If you've got a kid being a dumbass they need a reality check lol. No better teacher than hurt feelings. Don't like it, too bad - the real world is harsh. No wonder kids now are so damn dumb and entitled, modern parents are soft as hell
@@anggitadevina7277 you must be so proud , does his face look like Wolverine face fncked him...? You should hope he's not an asshole to his patients or you might get his pay back. It's amazing how easily you can find EVERY doctors home address in barely two minutes. Because they've ALL screwed someone over. Also you do know that your dad's likely a psychopath. There's a reason why medical negligence is a top killer. That's why medicine is top choice for the literal psychopaths. They kill more people than they'll ever "cure." And heaven help them and their family's when people find out what they've done during the Carlsberg Cough. 😷 People gonna be hanging them as street decorations. Enjoy. 😘
🤣 I just heard my nephrologist complaining one more time about how cardiologists think they know it all. I want to show him this video! He's going to love it! 😂
I remember that time of residency. The end seems too far away to start the countdown, but you can ALMOST see the light at the end and believe it's not an oncoming train.
@@noneofyourdamnbusinessstill Being a "partner track" attending for several more years. As low man on the totem pole feeling you can't say no to extra shifts etc thus demonstrating that you're a "team player" worthy of becoming a partner.
I think I heard/saw a skit where they mentioned that doctors in the US, if they have ever sought help for their mental health, they are no longer allowed to become a doctor. Someone fact check me please!
@@eagelswift American with Disabilities Act helps to prevent Dr's from being discriminated against if they have mental health issues. But many States in USA question doctors as part of their license process. Will the Boards say they denied or removed an applicant or Dr for them seeking help for mental health no. BUT we all know they do anyways, just hush hush. Shame really
YES, my Brother!! Do that med review! Poor innocent kidneys. Quietly working away in the dark, diminishing returns unappreciated until the 11th hour. Little heroes.
Stage 3b CKD here; still waiting for doc to agree I should see a nephrologist. They just don't seem to want to bother until very late. What's up with that?
As someone that has to see so different specialties these make me laugh so hard because they are so true. When I see one of my doctors and they show any of these traits I giggle. I’ve been sharing these with all the different medical staff that sees me. Thank you for making not just a patient laugh, but also every single one of my doctors, nurses, and techs laugh too.
I almost cried and laughed at the same time. I took care of a dialysis patient for awhile, the amount of times her nephrologist had to admonish other doctors and what not… but also her nephrologist liked me because I ask questions, was pretty good about the med list. I loved her nephrologist, such a kind and patient doctor with patients but will jump on providers… there were times before we made her, her pcp that she went ahead and ordered stuff she clearly needed but her pcp at the time didn’t want to.
A cardiologist actually prescribed a higher salt diet for my teenager. At different times every year, she experiences a high resting heart rate/heart palpitations. Docs don't have an explanation except maybe stress (claims everything is fine and I try to keep home stress low), lack of exercise (is a couch potato after school), or diet (maintains a healthy diet and doesn't consume too much sugar (sugar and chocolate are the suspected culprits because it mostly happens after consuming sugar; caffine is also rare). We got her salt pills and have her take one a day since we don't keep it in the house (unless a recipe absolutely needs it).
@@iyaayas you realise that humans need _some_ salt in their diet, right? Every time you perspire you are losing Na+ ions. Even if someone doesn’t have an active lifestyle, the body perspires while we sleep to thermo-regulate.
@@SportyMabamba Yes...I agree but all my early life I've been taught, "Don't put salt on your food. It's already been added during the cooking process and you don't need more than that." That and seeing heart doctor here telling kidney doctor not to eat salt like he does and kidney telling heart doc it's necessary, I'm just surprised to hear a heart doc perscribe salt. It's only recently that we started having salt in the house but I never cook with it the rare times I do cook (we eat out alot or eat pre-packaged foods - I'm just now having more time to learn to cook but I can only make and expiriment with mashed potatoes and Baby Purees. As I gain more confidence in cooking, I'll add a little more to my skillset.) I prefer the natural flavors of my food without salt. I consume enough with any flavored drinks and prepared foods anyway.
0:15 "All I need is you to waste the critically understaffed lab's time with useless tests in order for me to pretend that you don't know that vanco has a negative effect on the kidneys while I try to pretend that it's more important than the patient not dying of septicemia." Gotcha.
As an understaffed lab tech, can we please have the floor draw your vanco troughs… at the right time… please? Because my phlebs are running in circles and they don’t know what time that last dose was given or the next dose is due, and if I have to get the 12 phone calls from pharmacy while trying to troubleshoot the chemistry analyzer, stopping every 90 seconds to clean the osmo and put in the next sample, run back to the slide stainer to get that STAT manual diff done, running a STAT Sed rate (don’t even get me started) and then call the critical high vanco trough only to have the nurse say she just gave the dose even when the result wasn’t in yet… 🤬
I'm an electrical engineer. I love you content. :) (Sending your channel to my little brother that's waiting the results to see if he'll start med college this year. :P) [From Brazil! :)]
The soft voice that he uses to portray insecurity, the slightly open mouth at all times and the absolutely brilliant way to use his vocabulary for jokes, is exactly the right type of mix that makes me feel incredibly empathetic for all hospital doctors.
Its a everyday thing. Cardiologist, see HF, fluid overload, save heart mode start Lasix to remove fluid. Nephrology...but the kidney. Tries to save kidney so Dc lasix. 💁♂️
This is my cat. 😅 Kidney failure and congestive heart failure. I balance giving her Lasix for the CHF and fluids for the kidney failure. But I’m just a lay person winging this at home, not a doc/vet.
Cardiology, pulmonology and nephrology all fighting about which orders the patient should follow through the patient, but not ever talking to each other. Poor patients get tossed back and forth like a pinball. I love the humor you pull out of the absurdity.
I have two aunts who are married and are a Nephrologist and a Cardiologist respectively. And lemme tell you, the phrase "bickering married couple" has never been more accurate-
Just go up to them and say: "I've been learning to echo since before I started med-school, I've been published in 7 scientific journals including JAMA, and I will ABSOLUTELY treat the heart at the detriment of every other organ in the body" Then they'll be lining up to hire you ;)
I literally lol'd at the "sound of the loop of Henley screaming" bit. Gonna have to steal that one next time I get a doc trying to combine ACE/ARB, loop diuretic, and NSAID.
this is so scarily accurate. First thing my nephrologist consultant asks whenever I call him for a consult is the urinalysis. If you don't have that nothing else you say matters.
I really like what you do. I often do not know, what you are talking about. But calling yourself Glaucomflecken is hysterical :)))) As a German, I totally know what that means !
I'm so happy that you doctors have it all together BEFORE you touch a patient or that you're helping the NEW doctors pull it together! I'm listening and watching; it's scary at the same time! 😄😄😄😄 😁😁😁😁
This is so real, the best advice I ever got was prep for every consult like you're talking ro nephrology and you'll be fine. Those nephrologists are on another level of pinickity.
Finally one I understand 😌 I used to have to check our patients due for CTs for eGFRs and soooo many doctors just put them forward for contract CTs before making sure they would be okay 🥴
This is sooooo accurate. His characterisations and impersonations of each specialty are spot on. As an ID doc I can vouch for all of them including Bill😂 I was that poor guy!
This just brings me back to the days before my daughter's heart repair when we saw so many specialists every month that I couldn't remember what day it was without looking at my phone... The specialists wouldn't talk to each other and it was so exhausting 😅
My science professor was THE Henley that the loops are named after, he discovered them in his 20's, I was in his last year of teaching before his retirement, worked well into his 70's, very cool man
