Sounds like neurosurgeon and cardiothoracic surgeon are the two most requested. I'll be working on them in the coming weeks. I'm also going to be working on A Day in the Life of a Neurosurgeon with a friend of mine from UCLA. If you want to check it out, subscribe to my other channel here: ru-vid.com

@richardouellette4041 3 года назад

I'm aware that this was posted 4 months ago so you may not even see this, but Nurse Practitioners (highest level nurses) and Physician Assistants overlap a lot with physicians but tend to work better hours and have a better work life balance. They even get to specialize as physicians do but without residency.. If you are already an rn, becoming an NP might be a great option for you! If after looking into this the role of physician is what you want with no exception, another option is to look into the specialties with better work life balances comparatively speaking. Some specialties work more or less than others, just as some have more or less on call. Family medicine comes to mind but there are others as well, such as the "ROAD to success" specialties

Jocelyn Contreras If it’s your passion you can still make it work. I’ve seen surgeons with families, but it is extra difficult to do well. Some surgical specialties also lend themselves more to having a better lifestyle/balancing a family concurrently. Again, not saying it’ll be easy, but it can be done if you really want both.

Disclaimer - my dad LOVES his job more than anything and therefore chooses to work more and take more responsibilities and an average cardiothoracic

@lunabrights4073 3 года назад

@@danasternik5348 Oh, that sounds awesome! I'm really glad you're willing to speak to me and answer my questions. I want to know...How long did it take for your dad to finally become a certified surgeon? Like, did he study for a decade or more? I'm ready to do the same, but its interesting to know it from a real life surgeons perspective. Plus, I heard that it's difficult because you have to get loans for uni and you wont start earning until a lot later? Is it true that you can't get a lot of free/social life because duty and responsibilities interfere with it a lot? Also, I hope you don't mind me asking this...would you say that he spends a lot of time with you as a family or that his job gets in the way? I myself feel like family and friends are a big part of my life, and I'd like have my own family in the future, so as a career I would want to make sure that I can still give my time to those areas in my life as well. I hope I'm not bombarding you with questions...😊

@danasternik5348 3 года назад

@@lunabrights4073 my dad studied medicine in Russia so it's different from the USA, he was in university for 6 years instead of 4 years of college and 4 years of medical school then 7 years of internship and 2 years of fellowship in Minnesota. During internship and fellowship you do get a payed even though it's considered studying so repaying student loans is possible. He doesn't have a lot of social life/family time but then again he chooses to take more responsibilities on himself like being chief resident and publishing articles, it's hard but possible to balance your career as a cardiothoracic surgeon and social life. I know a cardiothoracic surgeon that is also a single mother and she manage to support her 2 kids financially and have enough time to take care of them. Still, you do have to be very efficient and productive to do all of that and you'll probably have to sacrifice something in different areas of your life. Anyway, you're not bombarding me, I'm glad I can help😊

@draconiusultamius 2 года назад

I've always had the vague idea of becoming a surgeon, but I wavered on it quite a bit as a 1-3.1 year med student. I really didn't know if the lifestyle sacrifice was something I was willing to go forward with. However, on my first day of surgical rotation, there was an emergent case of a very young patient who required an open appendectomy (patient was to small for laparoscopic procedure). I was invited to sit in and that single small experience solidified my desire. I was originally thinking neurosurgery, but I'm now leaning more to cardiothoracic, paediatric, or transplant surgery. Definitely not plastics tbh; it's just not something I can see myself enjoying that much. What I really want to do is operate on conjoined twins, or even witness an operation on conjoined twins. It's been something I've been absolutely fascinated by since I learned of the condition as a small child. I've always been fascinated by the macabre and by physical deformities, for some reason. I think it's partially because I was terrified of them as a child (though I felt awful and still feel awful about that), and I just love working with my hands. I only hope that my grades and ability are good enough to carry me through to residency. The only non-surgical specialty I'd consider is forensic pathology because I love true crime and the macabre

I, too, am going to be a neurosurgeon and as we have both the same drives, I would like to share other of mine: •in neurosurgery, the tissue you deal with is very unique and irreplaceable place where you: -Move -Speak -Think -Remember -Feel •Nervous tissue is very special, without altering function much you can remove: -All of a spleen -Entries limbs -Most of a liver It is nice talking to you, King, Have a wonderful day/night.

@irene.5798 4 года назад

@King I would suggest having a much stronger drive, especially if you want to go into a complex career like neurosurgery. There are hundreds of careers where you can help people and learn about the human body. So why neurosurgery if I may ask?

@King-zo4vv 4 года назад

Sherlock Holmes thank you for this... I’ll remember it

@King-zo4vv 4 года назад

Clique no1 wanting to learn more and being pushed to learn more is one of greatest drives of scientists and doctors which makes us find out more..... no 2 I believe the brain is more powerful than people even think... we underestimate the brain too too much, so going into neurosurgery is a way for me to learn more about the brain and so on....

@@irene.5798 Probably because he's watched too many TV shows glamorizing neurosurgery. Wait until he actually shadows it. The anatomy is not quite as glamorous as Grey's Anatomy makes it to be.

Thank you Sounds like the two most frequently sought specialties are cardiothoracic and neurosurgery. Heart and lung surgery. Surgeons come in a variety of specialties, such as general surgery, brain surgery, and cosmetic surgery.

Cardiology with highlights on procedures of transcatheter valvular replacement, stenting of coronary artery disease and peripheral blood vessels, catheter-based treatment for acute pulmonary emboli and acute ischemic limbs, ablation on all types of arrhythmias (including VT/VF), renal artery denervation, and device implantation

I'm in Year 11, going into college soon. I'll probably end up studying Biology, Chemistry and Computer Science A-Levels and I'm hoping doing those well enough will be enough to get me onto a Uni course which I can use to get into the medical field. Thanks for this video; I think surgery is the right path for me if I commit to medicine.

Hi! I’m a recent college grad and I’m in the middle of my year off. Right now, I’m in the middle of applying to a PostBacc program to get the rest of my Pre-med required courses. I want to be a surgeon because I love the idea of doing angioplasties for patients with blocked arteries or just simply creating or reforming with my hands. Yet, I am torn between that and Ob/Gyn or Anesthesiology. I really like to be in the front but I also really like being in the back or second in command. Sooo.. I’m hoping once I get accepted into med school (🤞🏾🙏🏾 ) I can make a design and be happy with it. Thank you for this awesome video!

This was absurdly amazing, my fav video from you, the part creating a muscle was incredible. And ive been thinking more plastic recently as a way to say burned and mauled victims, like children, how it would be to help in their development? Mainly emotionally, i wonder how it is to see that. We usually think of plastic as just aesthetic but i feel is even more than that and what i mentioned.

When I was 11, I got 3 metal pins drilled into my finger. They were sticking out of my flesh for 3 months and ever since then, I have fallen in love with orthopedic surgery. For that short amount of time, I couldn't stop observing and touching the pins. After expressing my love for the medical field, my doctor was somehow able to convince multiple surgeons to allow me to watch an operation. I still remember each suture, and I will never forget it. They were repairing a proximal tibia fracture using plates and screws. Now, I have my heart set on becoming an orthopedic surgeon.
