Thank you for this vlog, especially with the encouraging words of Dr. Monroe, I am in a similar situation. My academic advisor told me that I can't be a doctor with the grades that I have. I am in my sophomore year right now, hearing that story is giving me hope! With that being said, imma go eat my pancakes! :)
God bless you, I hope you become a good doctor. Dr. Monroe saying, "Perseverance pays off," makes him a congenial person, someone that you'd appreciate his company.
IMG med student here. (Caribbean) headed into my last semester of basic sciences ( I’m in MD4=MS2). Your videos are inspiring and motivating. Thank you for being relatable and humble. I see a lot of videos from med students on RU-vid and albeit informative, I can’t really relate to them. Thank you for using your platform to educate! ✊🏽
I feel really to have stumbled onto this channel especially as I was debating on what what career path I wanted to really pursue. After watching a couple of videos and seeing your positive perseverance, I've think I've made up my mind. You don't know how inspiring it is to see a couple brothers doing their thing. A having a good time as they put the work in
I relate to Dr. Monroe’s story on so many levels. I was told the same thing and now I’m graduating nursing school in May! I want to be a pedi hem/onc nurse and that doubt keeps seeping into my mind. But this is confirmation I will and can do whatever input my mind to!
Hey man, you inspire me every time you upload. I'm an older premed student and when I see what you're doing, it motivates me to keep going. Keep up the excellent work, you definitely deserve more attention.
As an MS1 taking a hard look at peds heme/onc, what is the best way to approach patients as an outsider when shadowing or interning and you don't have a good repoir with them yet?
this vid popped up in my recommended a few days after one of your tweets popped up on my twitter (which I hardly ever use) wyld coincidence but this some damb good content for this dumbass physics/pre-med student lmfao. everyone who spoke in this video was such a genuinely good person. shit's rare.
Hello. It's nice to know you're one of GOD'S healer. Could you recommend a really good hematologist in long island, NY? My dad is having hard time keeping his platelets up due to an autoimmune disease and the large granular t cell leukemia. We also found out his spleen is slightly enlarge. He's now getting nplate once a week and Cyclophosphamide with steroids 2 times a day. Day 1 his platelets was under 2, Day 2 it went to 4,000 but dropped back down under 2 on Day 3. It seems this hematologist is giving up on my dad. 😔 I'm sure someone out there will try to find a way to help treat him. 🙏
My dad passed away as he caught covid in the hospital. It's horrible that this hospital doesn't have a designated area for the covid patients. They are shared on the same floors with regular patients. Now I'm quarantine because I tested positive as I was there caring for my father. 😔
