I am a software engineer. Thank you for making time to say hello to us and reminding us to take one step at a time when we are overwhelmed with too many things on the list.
My sister used to work in a hospital, and she committed during a discussion about surgeons that neurosurgeons were some of the most arrogant. I told her about you and how wonderful you are.
Maybe they come across as arrogant bc they under a tremendous amount of pressure & are expected to be doing 18 things at the same time. And the receptionist is having coffee & looking at her phone. 😊
Thank you for sharing that about Dr Hoeflinger. I just had my life saved 3.5 months ago because I suffered from accute electrocution. My career is being an Electrician who does mainly Medical Facilities, Surgical Facilities not attached to hospitals for quick procedures where patients don’t require hospital stays. I’m saying all of that to color in the story some. We were working on a Saturday and had just returned from lunch. Me being the person that I am was laughing and joking around etc with all the guys and just in 5 min from this moment my life was changed. I had been feeling light headed that day but I thought I’d just push thru it and be ok like most men do when they are hardheaded like myself. We were doing a procedure to the building to modify a circuit on some fairly high voltage lines. They were 480 volts and still charged with electricity as I started working on them to dissect what we were going to do to get the outcome desired by the engineers over the job. I took a wire nut off (wire nut- holds several wires of the same together where wires cross paths at a certain tie in point etc or starting point for something new to tie into) I must have fainted and I fell into the wire with my left hand which I had just exposed that was still hot with electricity. 480 v ran thru my body and I fell back from about 5 ft up on a ladder on the back of my head and neck. They said I was dead when I hit the ground because of the electricity stopping my heart. My hard hat saved my life also helping shield from completely hitting my head on the concrete. I was just laughing and joking and now I was laying lifeless on the floor. My co workers sprang into action and the never got my heart to start beating but they never gave up on CPR. The ambulance got there and they shocked my heart back into rhythm and brought me back from a certain death. I had been dead for over 20 min when my heart started back up. I was taken to Trauma ICU and had a fracture on the base of my skull, the gash where I hit required a combo of 44 staples and sutures to close up. I was in a coma for 9 days before I woke up. I woke up on day 9 and came home on day 11 to begin my 3 month recovery period. Thanks to a Neuro Team of the same caliber and demeanor of Dr Hoeflinger I can say I just finished my first week back at work and my life is getting back to normal. There are only about 3500 neurologists in the USA Today. We should be very thankful for men like Dr Hoeflinger who are sharing their lives with us on social media. I found his page during my recovery and he has helped change my life by giving me tips on how to be a better healthier version of myself. Thank You Doc for doing what you’re doing and being transparent with all of us who watch your channel. So I will end with this. We never know what life has right around the corner. I always want to be the very best version of myself at all times so I have no regrets on not living my life and living it well. I’m very thankful to everyone who has contributed to my story.
I pray refreshing and restoration for you mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. You havecquite the FULL PLATE and people are so blessed by your gift of compassion and caring. God bless you and yours. Texas Nana 🙏🙏🙏💖☝️☝️☝️😊
Thank you for saying hello and talking with us as you were heading home. I hope chatting with us helps you decompress somewhat. I wish that you have a quiet night and the possibility of a relatively calm on call week. Take care!
wow just another day at the office. you truly are amazing. my jaw was on the floor listening to your day. i got anxious hearing it all. Your one of the true heros of this world Dr. Yourself and many othet trauma surgeons. ive the i have the utmost respect. So go enjoy dinner and family time.
15 years in a 9-1-1 dispatch center here- the idea of multitasking is a fallacy. There is no way to do multiple things at once. You can only do one thing at a time. Once I learned that I got a lot better at my job and my stress level went down. One. Thing. At. A. Time. Sometimes you have to do them in quick succession but that you can handle!
Ty you for this video. It was so interesting..also it helped me as a reset w life also. I also have severe anxiety and panic attacks. Epilepsy and am learning how to grieve my Mothers death at the same time. Just ty. This struck me. Ty.
That is so important. When you feel OVERWHELMED YOU Accomplish NOTHING. YOU HAVE TO TRAIN YOURSELF NOT TO SEE HOW MANY THINGS NEED TO GET DONE. EACH PIECE YOU ACCOMPLISH, LESSENS THE "OVERWHELM." IT TAKES PRACTICE TO PERFECT THAT METHOD.SLOWLY CHIP AWAY AT IT AND BEFORE YOU KNOW IT, YOU'RE DONE.
Is the hospital short of help? I mean that is an overwhelming amount of patients to see in one day especially on a Saturday. I get it that in most cases the patients have already been through the emergency room & have been checked out which helps.

Thankyou Doctor for your service and helping care for those who need it, your a great man!
Those patients don't have any idea how Fortunate they are to have Dr. Hoeflinger on their Case.
A truly amazing professional. No doubt enjoys wonderful support from his wife and son.
Thank you for the reminder to take things one at a time. As a nurse I get stressed sometimes with all the tasks that I need to do. ❤
To have your skill to change people's lives is just incredible.
Wow that’s amazing ❤🇳🇿
