My First 7 Days Working As A Doctor | Vlog 

Maybe it’s because a lot of the stuff I see online these days just paints medicine in a negative light, but you saying you have the best job in the world just makes me even happier I decided to go for med (hopefully starting in September!!). Thank you for showing what it’s really like, including the good stuff 😊

The most real thing I've read and I've been relating to it more year after year is that medical degree is like being in a relationship, you cry you laugh, you have easy times you have hard times, you experience failure you experience success, you love it you hate it, you overcome hard times and it becomes part of who you are, compliments you and makes you work harder to become a better version of you.

Hi faye! i have my first A-level exam in 17 days and need to get AAA to hit my med offer at Plymouth uni and have recently adopted getting up at 5:45am to get more revision done before driving to college, and because of you i’ve been feeling so productive and positive about my future, i have so much excitement for the future and am so motivated to get to where you are. you are the ultimate med girlie role model! thanks as always ❤️

Thank you faye for positing. You are truly my therapy, and we appreciate all the work you do for us on social media as well as being a full-time doctor - you're aweosome ❤❤❤

I want to make a small correction. As American doctors, we don't work UP TO 80 hours per week. We work UP TO 80 hours per week averaged over 4 weeks. This means that we might work 100 hours per week for more than one week in a month.

I know you are busy but you never fail to amaze me! You still go on vacations and enjoy your time during holiday, sometimes work 7 days a week, and still find time to make the best quality videos/vlogs. Watching your channel and seeing you from the beginning of med school up to now being a doctor makes my heart so happy! FAYE YOU ARE LITERALLY ONE OF THE MOST AMAZING PEOPLE! I hope you always remember that ❤

Hey Faye, I've been watching your videos and been a subscriber since you started your channel and I just wanted to say I am so proud of you and watching how far you've come and all you have achieved is truly inspiring. Thank you for taking us along this journey and I wish you all the best on your career as an official doctor!

As an academic doctor, I definitely feel the being 'a shell of a woman' after a long day of utter chaos in the lab. Guaranteed when I have a big/busy experiment on, I'm the most popular person in the department for asking questions or favours from other people. When I get home, I prey that the batch cooked meal in the fridge is still good, and wonder if my hair can stand another day of not being washed (I have thick, curly, non greasy hair, so in the winter I can go a week without washing it!).

absolutely love your content and really appreciate how you give up what little time you have to keep up the videos!

Girl you’re doing absolutely amazing keep slaying

For some reason those EU regs never made it to Ireland. I have worked an 11/12 day stretch as an intern. Definitely felt like a shell of a woman then too. I wish I had adopted the ‘doing things before work’ mindset because there were weeks I truly got absolutely nothing done. Great vlog Faye, it is the best job in the world and I think the trend of a lot of medical RU-vidrs leaving medicine is fair enough but it’s nice to see the good side too.

Faye, I do not know how you do it! Making these lengthy quality videos and also working as a full-time doctor. I am super impressed!

I am going through a breakup rn and watching your videos and seeing you girlbossing is always a comfort, especially during this time 🫶🫶 as a fellow ADHDer, it is SO INSPIRING to see you being successful and eating breakfast. I appreciate you :)

I always get so excited when I see you’ve posted! ❤️ is there any way you can do a video explaining all of the different smoothie recipes you do? I need some inspo! ❤️

I'm currently doing my A-levels, and your vlogs are my treat after a long day of revision - thank you Faye 🩷

As a neurodivergent nurse, seeing you pull these kind of hours honestly impresses me so much! I’m spent at the end of my 3 day week 😭😂

Could you do a year round up of your rotations to explain what they all were and your thoughts? I’m curious about it all ◡̈

This vlog was so heartwarming omg, it makes me excited for life after medical school and dread it less

I love your vlogs so much Dr Bate catch me watching every single one as soon as it's released lol!!

Loved the three body problem!

I love you and your videos! You inspire me so much🫶🏼

Thoroughly enjoyed !👍

Your positivity is contagious, keep it up

constantly amazed by your ability to be so productive around work

First time watcher but I thoroughly enjoyed this!

Thanks Faye, amazing vid as usual xxx

how in the hell are u this productiveeeee... hats off

Previous worker at a tea shop: whisk in an "M for matcha" shape. Works like a charm.

Love your vlogs! Just a small correction, you can become a consultant from 7 years+ post med school (radiology for example)- most are not a minimum 10 years but often people just extend their registrar bit as generally no real rush to become a consultant especially if you have children/do a PhD/other committments etc :) xx

Red bush/rooibos tea is uncaffeinated so I recommend as a tea choice after 12pm!!! Tastes just like normal tea if you add milk too

As a neurodivergent girlie I love seeing you normalise being non-verbal after a long day and allowing yourself time to relax

glad to know that there's even doctors out there who don't drink water throughout the day until they get home lmaoo it's a habit i need to break

Not to be sappy but this is noy just a silly little video on the internet for me?? Like, I literally look forward to it and makes me more productive ❤️ really helps

Matcha tip … I now add a dash of cold water before hot water to my matcha powder to prevent it burning it tastes less bitter !

I’m 52 and teacher and a SENCO working in a secondary school . I love your relatable content ! I also love your double necklace !! Where’s it from please ? X x

Excellent vlog as usual, can’t you carry around a water bottle in your scrubs though?

finally another person with adhd where caffeine keeps u awake😭😭everyone always says it makes them sleepy and it used to make me sleepy when i was younger but now it energizes tf out of me lol. when u said itll keep u staring at the ceiling if u drink it too late, i was like finally someone else hahah. im also unmedicated and looking for a psychiatrist to get treated but seeing u as a doctor with adhd inspires me sm as someone who didnt go to med school and esp everything that comes after cuz i felt like i couldnt handle it cuz of my adhd. maybe one in the day in the future i could try but for now ill stay with just getting my masters & phd but i appreciate these videos sm and the adhd ones❤

whats more battered after these shifts you or your camera lens getting that cheers!!! hahah that was a fantastic video

thanks faye means a lot for vlogs

I love your video!!!! I have one question, after all these days of work, how many days did you have off afterwards? Curious to know xx

Hey Faye where are your scrubs from? I don’t like the scrubs offered at work .

What’s the green powder Faye uses

Yess, italian girl here! It does mean angry and its because its spicyyy!! ❤

What does the green powder contain ?

Great video xxx

Hi fayee,I loved your videos so much I watched one of your manifestation videos and I was wondering if you could could manifest good grades even after you did bad on exam? Or am I just being dumb, I'd love to know ❤😊

Dan ate the clouds like cotton candy.

Ur voice is so therapeutic ❤love your content ☺️☺️

❤

Your rant about the chocolate vs sleep is so relatable hahahaa 😂😂😂

Wait… are you allowed to wear nail varnish on the wards?

Hey Faye!

Do more weekly vlogs please

how many hours was it in the week

I thought you had decided not to continue? Im glad youre still trying and going for it!

Sometimes doctors in the US even have work all 7 days, with a 24hr shift thrown in as well. The amount of hours doctors and nurses work here is insane, and on the patient end has me concerned. As a normal person with to little sleep I make big mistakes. a chronically sleep deprived doctor has so much risk 😬 Love your videos 😊

Currently still watching this, but girlies out there, don't feel bad for needing support from a partner! especially people in Fayes position! Back when we sort of designed the systems we have today, the person doing the demanding career role, would generally have a wife (and yes would likely be a man) who very likely was not expected to do house work, would be fed and kept by their wife, who may have had a part-time vocation. Her labour is absolutely acknowledged and seen, but nowadays a lot of women fall victim to us currently existing in a society that just expects us to do both. Of course its better to be able to have a chance of career equity, but no one has taken on that missing domestic, full-time equivalent role in the household.Now both people in a couple have to work (for the most part), it seems really obvious to me that in this situation, Faye wouldn't be able to cook regularly. Her 2 full time jobs, and carer progression and future earning potential justifyies a reduced load of household tasks. Basically im saying, if I was Fayes other half, id be a domestic goddess. Go get that career girl, ill cook pasta and vacuum alongside my part-time or desk job. Flat would be spotless 🤣 But being for real tho, I work less than my partner, I take on more mental load in the house, but my partner still does their share. Thats fair and equtiaitble for us.

i smiled when i saw her break the mask straps so animals that get into trash don't suffocate 🥺

Well ❤ Do you know the Department of Anaesthesiology Techniques or the assistant of the anaesthesiologist? I'm studying this department. It's beautiful and fun. We help anaesthesiologists prepare patients for surgery. I was wondering if you had heard anything about him?

Compared to America, your workdays are short.

🔥🌿👍🏽🌹👍

nice vlog- the beginning is a bit distracting as it seems like you're trying to talk to ur bf rather than audience haha x
