I would think a heavy loss of patients over an entire field is enough to justify it. Maybe not "whatever you want" but I don't think any one business wants to lose "our only xxxx"
@@nodezsh hahahahaha....they never renegotiate, they will go out of their way to delay or hire someone else willing to take the contract than renegotiate the contract...god I hate that time of year :|
This makes me so happy. My wife is an OB/GYN in a… uh, very physician-filled family. Her dad is radiology, her mom is traumatic brain injury recovery, and then siblings in descending order of age are peds, cardiology, psychiatry, neurology, anesthesiology, and… “tbd, still in residency.” They all comment on how accurate this channel is. Cardiology got roasted by his mom sharing your video about asking for a cardiology consult, and he was like “well… yeah, but I…” Everyone is like “okay that stereotype is true, but (reasons)”. Absolutely grand. edit: I just listed the doctors. There are two others, who are not in the medical field. One is the eldest child and is a cybersecurity expert. The other is a veterinarian. Lots of "eww, people medicine, gross" jokes. Her husband is also a veterinarian.
"Hey family medicine, we know you wanted a jonathan... so we got you the next best thing. Here's Jonathan's kid!" "Oh... well maybe he can..." and it's just a kid screaming and running around.
1:28 I like the double-meaning here - yes, she just schooled surgery, but also anesthesiologists are natural allies to the OB/GYNs because of epidurals.
As a woman who has had to be in the ER multiple time during pregnancy and one time for a possible ruptured ovarian cyst this is beyond hilarious! The book saying "vaginas etc" sent me! 🤣 Btw, I can confirm, you do NOT want a pelvic exam done in the ER. 😂
@@wholeNwon well I was never a direct admin. I was brought in as an emergency and therefore needed to be assessed in ER before they would decide where to admit me.
I ran into that in basic training when we cross trained with an all male group with our mixed group. The poor lads were staring at the grenades in their hands then back at the female DIs in confusion because they hadn’t seen a woman in so long
As a woman with a hormone and ovary-related disorder whom clinics and doctors have passed around like the dustiest, crustiest least treatable hot potato this is the first time one of the DR’s videos did not make me laugh. I felt it in my bones. Women live in way more pain than they ever should because their bodies are so mystifying to doctors. I’ve lived these situations from the other end, as the patient whose condition is not treated seriously at all or by stumped doctors who do not know the damnest thing about “vaginas, etc.” It hurts. Thank you for talking about it.
I'm not a doctor, but I agree. A couple of times I have had really great, thorough women's health care where my pain was not treated as "woman's complaint" and actually addressed and treated by something other than pain killers. My friends and I lament that this would all be different if men were the ones who had these kinds of problems.
I’m a doctor (anesthesiologist) and I couldn’t agree more!!! My experience with ob/gyn is that if your are pregnant or you want to be pregnant you are treated with the most respect, if you don’t want child and your problem is only female reproductive system related your problem doesn’t exist or is not a real problem and you must not complain because since your reproductive system is useless… I suffer from endometriosis and I don’t want to be pregnant so the struggle is real.
@@sarag.945 I also have endometriosis and no plans to ever be pregnant- I got lucky and ended up at the local teaching hospital which has a fantastic ob/gyn department with endo specialists, but getting here in the first place was... tough. If you're in a lot of pain but not worried about your fertility you pretty much just stay at the back of the line.
This is SPOT ON!! Specially with the surgeons trying to undermine the surgical abilities of the gynecologist and everyone, literally EVERYONE, having questions about a pregnant patient 😂
I feel like I would have liked to know if there were any pregnancy related bones. That was a super valid question that just went completely unanswered.
I remember the first time I assisted in a surgery was in my OB GYN rotation and it was such a great experience. Even when there where complications and the operating doctor got really stressed he told everyone "It's not your fault, I'm just swearing because this is really stressfull. Keep up the good work" and thanked me for my assistance in the end. I never felt that appreciated and respected as a human being before (and sadly never again) in other surgical fields. OB GYNs need to be appreciated more!
I sure love each of the personalities that Dr. G brings to all of us. As a fellow woman, the new OBY/G personality brings an exciting new element. I, indeed, like her already!
As a previous OB nurse, current O.R. nurse, this is painfully accurate. Such little respect is given to Doctors and nurses that work in OBGYN despite others having zero clue how to do that specialty.
Your characters have become so real to me it’s like looking at 6 different actors. The costumes and personalities are so unique (and spot on) that I can tell them all apart without labeling. Your wife makes a marvelous OB/Gyn, way to spice things us. Keep the laughs coming.
If Lady Glaucomflecken isn’t also a Dr, she’s got mad skills acting. Loved her putting surgery in their place. I most loved the radiologist being willing to increase his exposure to daylight to appreciate the new OB/GYN.
After my unplanned c section I had a massive hemorrhage and my ob/gyn had to insert a Jada drainage system and then also a second emergency surgery to make sure there were no clots. Had to recover in the ICU and the nurses there were impressed with how nice my stiches looked. She’s a surgeon.
Brilliant! I remember when having a partial hysterectomy and my gynecologist who is amazing did my surgery and delivered my last child. I remember laying in pre-op and she walked in and she was all of 5 ft tall and walked right up to every other male surgeon that was standing in a circle towering over her and they literally parted ways for her to walk through and she stood there in that circle and talked to all those Dr Bros like she owned the place I knew I was in good hands. 👩🏼⚕️
Tha sounds like the woman who delivered my son. As a resident, I was in a case with her where things got hairy and she handled it LIKE A BOSS. And I worked with trauma surgeons who had been combat surgeons and stuff, and she made them look like amateurs that day. I immediately asked her if she was seeing new patients. She was also less than 5 ft tall but the most towering presence in any room she was in. I LOVED working with her, but I adored her when I was just her patient's husband.
@@elizabethclaiborne6461 As someone with an amazing neurosurgeon who I absolutely ADORE and probably saved my life, yes, I 100% agree that women surgeons have superpowers.
I assume both polarized with polarization planes at approximately 89 degree angles to only let in the single degree of light, since everything else is redundant!
I remember doing my nursing clinicals in OB and being the only male on the floor, it was like being surrounded by moms that kept saying “wow your as young as my son” left and right. Being 22 at the time I was like OB’s baby 😅😂
Bro I was in the same boat.. if I wasn’t getting ejected because “I don’t want a male student nurse”, I was getting told how young I was or kept being asked what I want to specialize in….. OB was a weird time.
@@KevTheHunter1 I was lucky because the 70% of the OB unit were Filipino, being also Filipino they essentially took me in like their son 😅 There were moments when I of course couldn’t go into the examination room for obvious reasons but the unit tried their best to make me feel comfortable 🥰
I love this new character! I would probably be a single parent without OB/GYN's. (Seriously) They are fantastic people who have reduced the mortality rate of delivering Mom's around the world.
This is great!! Also, I like how Emergency admits that he’s the reason for the hospital being voted “most scariest place to get a pelvic exam” seven years in a row
@@introvertedquilter Thankfully I haven’t been on the receiving end of that. I did have a partial hysterectomy d/t endometriosis. At the hospital I asked for pain med and the nurse shot it through my IV so fast I thought my arm was going to fall off. It was morphine. Slow IV push over two minutes! There’s a reason for that, nurse at the hospital I was at
I had to go to the ER after complications with an IUD. They didn’t have a gyno in the building and it took them forever to get ahold of someone. I waited 4 hours suffering with a fever and extreme cramping, just to have a male doc who is not a gyno examine my pelvic area. IT HURT. And it was so invasive!
@@bellab8639 Makes me glad I don’t have a cervix anymore. Even when I’ve had to put catheters in women it’s an automatic reflex to put your knees together when a stranger is down there 👇🏼 At least I hope it is but no judgment if it isn’t 😂
As someone who recently had to have an emergency hysterectomy due to placenta previa/increta/percreta, OB/GYNs are absolutely stellar surgeons and I will fight anyone who argues otherwise - once I can lift more than 10 lbs. again lol.
Hope you get better soon. ❤️ Did you miscarry? (Do not answer if that is too personal. I am just doubly sorry for your loss🥺) I’m glad you had a great surgeon. I am thinking about you, and I hope you get better soon.
Man, when you get to 15 lbs, they better WATCH OUT!!! The lifting limit seems so crazy until you try to lift even 10 lbs and you wonder if you're going to fall apart.
I hope you have a good support system at home. My husband and kids have been awesome in helping me get through my first C-Section (Earlier this month). It was an emergency because baby got stuck part way through.
@@crls1 really, genius? Because I've seen them get a patient into a crash c-section and go from skin to baby out in 90 seconds and then put the patient back together again. It was a sight to behold, and most importantly, it was surgery.
My wife and I just had our 2nd child 9 days ago. Present in the delivery room at delivery time were only women. I was the only male. And eventually our son. Experienced obgyn, a female 3rd year assisting and learning and 4 nurses. A 2nd female obgyn attended to us in the hours leading up to the birth. It was amazing and my wife was so happy.
Anesthesia being excited about the new doctor standing up to Surgery. 😂💕 Also, Emergency being the reason for the hospital’s pelvic exam reputation has me… concerned. 😬😅
Anaesthetics tend to hate obgyns more than any other surgeons (except maybe perhaps neurosurgeon). Almost no other surgeons drag them out of bed at all odd hours for emergency surgery as frequently as obgyns do 😅
@Kali Shaffer As of 10 years ago it was still done. I had waited way too long to come to the ER and was in extreme pain. Had every single sign of appendicitis but MD says we have to give you a pelvic exam. Just moving my legs was painful and I started screaming "stop" with the speculum. Never had such pain. When they finally got a CT my abdomen was (sorry) filled with puss and i was so lucky it didn't burst.
@Kali Shaffer I had appendicitis last fall and had to get a transvaginal ultrasound to rule out gynecological causes for my pain, but that was an ultrasound tech who did a fantastic job, not an ER doc. And different from a pelvic exam, obvi. No knocks to doctors but I think sometimes the techs and assistants have some of the best hands on skills out there! Not to even mention the nurses.
Wait till Anaestheseology finds out about emergency c sections at 3AM. My bestfriend is an OBGYN and just last week I was telling her to set boundaries with her patients cause they're texting her at 12AM with non-emergency and non-obgyn issues.
All five of my children needed today's female OB/GYN understanding. I felt the dark ages, and it was terrible. Meemaw is greatly appreciated for living long enough to have appointments and not expecting to find any leftovers from those days of child birthing.
You laugh but pregnancy is a mysterious and scary condition. Who knows what could happen. It's always best to call the OB/GYN at three in the morning to see is a pregnant patient can have Tylenol.
@Kali Shaffer Aaaand, _look; here we have that obligatory person who can't take a joke in any way, shape or form. Ever._ 🙄 (Alternative, the person who is stupid enough to belive that we are doing things like this in reality....)
I was just talking to my bestfriend last week about setting boundaries with her patients because they're texting her at 12AM with non-emergency and non-obgyn issues. She's set to start her fellowship in laparoscopic surgery soon. Also, obgyn is def a surgical practice.
@Kali Shaffer You'd be surprised. When my bestfriend was doing her final semester as an obgyn resident. ER would page her for things just like that. Also her shifts were like 35 hours shifts.
Oh I love that! Just started my Ob/Gyn residency and people are just making fun of it because lol, vaginas. Then there suddenly is a pregnant woman - gasp - and everyone freaks out. You even got the surgeon thinking gynecological surgeries are any less surgeries than his! Just all in all perfect!
Was covering an overnight shift as a teaching OB in a Women’s hospital emergency dept last night talking about these videos and how you needed a good OB/Gyn video. Asked and answered! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
More! More! MOOOOORRRREE! I'm thrilled to see a woman doctor and an OBGYN. I love this channel. 😁 Please make sure the doctors aren't all clueless misogynists, though. As of 2019, 50.5% of medical students are women. I'm glad she schooled them.
I don't think they're misogynists here. Surgery does that to everyone and the rest don't seem to have a problem. Clueless for sure, though a running theme is that every doctor is clueless about things outside their specialty.
Thank you, thank you! I asked for an OB/GYN skit, and like magic, one appeared several day later. I’m beyond giddy! You hit the nail on the head. As someone who did a surgical fellowship after my OB/GYN residency, this is spot on. Love the textbook, “Vaginas, etc”.
Thank you for making me laugh. I've been a nurse a long time; your over-the-top stereotypes are perfect. I'm currently in nephrology. I play your videos for my fellows and attendings, they howl with laughter, and everyone loves the Morton salt. Keep it up; Doc laughter is the best medicine.
When I was having a miscarriage hemorrhaging blood for 6 hours in an ER. My body trying to expel a stuck 'part' I needed an OBGYN there. I had to wait for an outside one Then when she get there this newly renovated ER didn't even have a bed with stirrups or any available. She asked if I wanted to wait for them to find a set. I was like nahhhh end this shit right now. I was into my second trimester somehow.... with a partial molar baby. I compare it to labor pains I had with my first child. But no one could look at me. Didn't even clean the blood off my feet. Yes for fucking hiring them for a HOSPITAL. I'd say half your customers have uteruses/uteri 🙄
So sorry for your trauma, and it really is alarming how hospitals try to ignore that they might still need OBGYNs even if they aren't a birth center. Hope you are doing better now.
Having them on site means nothing..... Wife had a miscarriage went to ER andnthey said make an aoot wiyh OB in the morning..... Labir and delivery with 2 OBs on site at all times was 2 floors above us and wouldn't come down
@@Taylexwow that does suck, although in their defense, they may have been unable to leave their patients. When I was having my son, his paternal grandfather was an OB/GYN at the same hospital. He was visiting us after doing a pelvic reconstruction, and a nurse peeked around the door. "Dr. P has 3 babies coming at once! We gave one mag sulfate; can you come catch the other one?" I felt sorry for the woman who got the mag sulfate.
Oh, this is so relatable. As an ER doc, I once had to consult an OB/GYN for fever medication because a pregnant lady is burning with fever (over 39 C) and she's allergic to Paracetamol. ^^
@@MrJackFrost2908 I didn't think you could have ibuprofen if you were pregnant! I'm probably wrong but that's something I've literally been told all of my life
You both really nailed this one!!! 🤣❤️ It truly gave me a much needed "rolling-in-the-floor" laugh for the day!!! Loved Anesthesia's reaction. 🙂 .....But the sad truth is that female doctors get so battered by our current medical system that few go into certain specialties, especially ones like Neurosurgery, Cardiovascular Surgery, Orthopedics, etc.
I admire the dedication with you shaving for the new role. Or did you wax? Glue sticks and concealers? Either way, your makeup was impeccable and the beautiful wig very believable. Respect to the makeup artist for transforming you into such a great depiction of a woman. ❤ Top-notch performance, too!
Somehow I get the distinct feeling that we’re about to see an unprecedented wave of hospital OB/GYNs being referred to as Lady Bro. It might even extend to all female consultants. Will have to keep an eye on the comments moving forward to monitor the developments on this matter.
Wow, such amazing eyes. Between 2006 and 2010 I worked for a hospital that projected income from one particular OBGYN for budget planning. She was extremely popular in the region and brought in a ton of revenue. She attempted to deliver as many of her patients personally as often as possible, took calls from her patients personally off hours and emailed back and forth with them all day. I'm not kidding. She drove her staff absolutely crazy but they loved her and had a ridiculously low turn over rate. I dated her office manager for a while. All that with a husband and 2 young teenagers. Insanity
Favorite part is the ending when she said she should renegotiate her salary and Dr. G said she could have whatever she wanted for putting up with the gang lol
I'm a mining engineer and the "basic" overview of my field of study is "this rock make money, this rock make no money" but i'v been binge watching this dudes videos and I find them all extraordinarily funny despite being like the the emergency medicine bro asking if there are "pregnancy bones" :D I feel like mining engineering is the persona you put on for emergency medicine in the general engineering discipline as a whole lol!
Mrs Glac! Oh so good to see her! I want more and more of her. She has smashed and stumbled upon the ego of GS. And it's lovely to see Ortho bro, got an equally over crowded of a specific specialty, loved lady bro. Lady bro should have a name, and I would like see lady bro in the Neurosurgery specialty practically slaying everyone 😃
I’m person who isn’t a lady or a woman and who has to regularly see my OBGYN. It’s really hard for me mentally to schedule my visits since they are all labeled ‘women’s health exam’ etc. I’ve had friends who simply avoided going at all for years at a time because being misgendered was so harmful to their mental health and it ended up having some serious effects on their overall outcomes. I love this channel and I’d love to see you work with your excellent format to give some people more and information on people like me!
@@TerryReedMiss I’m so excited for you that this is the day you learn about trans and non-binary people! It’s a really wide body of personal experience academic work but don’t feel like you need to access it all at once. A good place to start is to look for an listen to some trans or non-binary creators since you are already on RU-vid! To answer your specific question here, I’m non-binary (meaning my gender identity doesn’t neatly fall into the two poles we think of as traditional gender) and before my hysterectomy it was medically appropriate from me to see a gynecologist. Hopefully this helps answer your question and general confusion on this topic!
Please get over yourself and make sure you don't have BREAST or CERVICAL cancer. I am a woman who also has a hard time making these appointments, but we have a responsibility to our loved ones to take care of ourselves. If your provider is insensitive, find another one!!! Take a friend!!! Do what you need to do, but please go.
The medicine thing is so true. Even my normal dr who does pregnancy/delivery too was like, * slides computer over and quickly double checks * “okay, good. Current studies show its still safe for you to take that medication. Nothing has changed.” I get it. Science is ever changing. Better to look it up
Oh what a glorious and happy day! I think I speak for all of us who have been requesting obgyn for a while... Thank You!! We can’t wait to see more of Lady G! 😁
Whoot Whoot 🙌🏽 Ob/Gyn join crew & brought the sassy with her. show she can go head to head with the guys. Plus Everyone needs a Jonathan lol. Always have me laughing😂
A new character! I love her already! As an inexperienced woman in life, I'm always glad to see experienced confident woman. They are just so cool to me.
