It's not OB/GYN, but it's been pretty awesome so far! Currently on my cardiology rotation :D
This video is a classic week in the life showing you how my typical days have been going! Productivity to the MAXXXXXX!
Are you a cardio guy/gal?
...but it's not OB/GYN...
yes, i've loved seeing you in OBGYN! But i am also so excited to see in cardiology
I'm definitely a🫀/🫁 gal. Every exam in nursing school that is covering those I always do well. I'm currently on my last year of nursing school, I'm taking pediatrics, OB and a second adult health class. My OB teacher is hilarious, so funny and makes the class very fun, I love her. I love your videos, I would binge watch them and it helps me to get motivated to study. Keep them coming Rachel! Super excited for this video! ❤️
I noticed that you mentioned online med, do you not like using boards and beyond anymore? I just got the book and I love it, I am in PA school but I think it will come in handy.
Hi Rachel
Jeff will love knowing you are now studying cardiology! He has spent a ton of time at Texas Heart and knows all the main cardiac surgeons there and throughout the country
I know it's not OB/GYN, but I'm so glad you're in Cardio. I've lost two friends, both women of color, to complications with pre-eclampsia and having strokes during pregnancy. Learn as much as you can, so you can save women like my friends.
why did you mention the fact that they're women of color lol
@@hydra4962 because being a woman of color “like myself” is a risk factor for getting pre-eclampsia!
Death rate for minorities due to pregnancy complications is higher than their white counterparts as well.
I’m so sorry to hear this 🥺 thank you for sharing. I’m hoping to make an impact in this specific part of medicine and help change these numbers 💕
Hey there Andrea dear? Why does it matter that they were woman of color? Are you trying to saying their different from other woman? Why does it matter if their black or white ? A loss of a life is a loss of a life. Don’t he ignorant sweet heart. I can educate you if you need (: stay safe.
As a 28 year old who has had 7 heart surgeries (2 open heart surgeries) in the last 4 years, I am excited to see your cardiology rotation! I have congestive heart failure from all my heart has been through so this will be so interesting to me! Thanks for sharing your whole journey
Man, that’s terrible. Will you have to get a heart replacement soon? 🫀Scary shit. 🙏🏻😬
@@flanagamer at the moment, no thankfully. I will need more heart surgeries though.
@@learningtomakelimeadeoutof9318 ugh, good luck with everything. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I have been striving towards medical school for 7 years now. I took the MCAT for the 3rd time last month and I get my score back today. Watching your videos while I cool down at the gym gives me a lot of hope and joy. I’m hopeful for my score release today 🤞🏻
Did you get what you wanted??
@@charlieh9725 would have loved higher but I achieved my target score (:
@@crystawolfe7609 that’s amazing well done! The MCAT seems so hard. I start medical school in the UK this September, we have nothing even close to as difficult as that
@@charlieh9725 Thank you! It really is a beast of a test. Best of luck with all of your studies!
@@charlieh9725 time for me to move to the UK lol
Cath lab was AWESOME when I went in as a nursing student! The fact that modern medicine can do those kinds of things always blows my mind 🤯
I love how thrilled you are about the challenges and learning experiences involved with cardio!
I always think even if you’re not learning something you know will apply, you’ll be surprised how it serves you later. What I’d keep in the back of my mind is to just remember what experiences and information you want to hold onto. Those moments where your brain lights up are always the ones that seem to get logged to the memory, which is why it’s ideal to light people up over whatever gets them going. I think good teachers often know that and humor is one of those universal devices. I think it would be really cool for you to get more of your people and coworkers on the channel. It would be very cool of those people to do it. At the very least it can shake things up a little, but maybe they can drop a little knowledge too.
can't wait to see the new rotation and the how you mange to be yourself out from your comfort zone "OBGYN rotations" :) always grateful for the experience you share with us.

You inspire me when I don't want to study. You make me feel less alone on this journey. I want to become a doctor. Right now, studying pre med. Rachel I love you and wish you the best.love love
Omg the rotation I’ve been waiting for!! I really want to do cardiology so hearing your experience gives me perspective ☺️. Thanks Rachel!
I absolutely love how you go after the things you aren't strong in. Everything is a learning opportunity for you. Everything you learn is a thing you might help a future OB/GYN patient with. Love it! I hope you keep having fun and that you have confidence that your study methods have gotten you this far, and will get you the rest of the way. And cry if you want to!!!!
Aaaaah. Can not wait for this video. I am literally in love with your videos about this medicine journey you are on. Every week i stay up late at night to watch your video. I am in awe of how you are able to be on RUclips and still studying to be a doctor. Keep up the great work and i just love you and your videos 💗
You are working so hard! It’s great to hear your cardio guy is an excellent teacher. Hugs and 💗s to you!!
I’m only an undergrad and I really want to go into vetmed. I’m easily overwhelmed by how daunting the journey to being a Dr. seems especially at the beginning. When I’m discouraged I literally open my laptop and watch your videos- it makes me feel so much better. Seeing someone that I relate to and someone who is so real, girl bossing her way to her dreams is so motivating and inspiring. Thank you SO much Rachel, keep keepin it real. I hope you know how much we all support and appreciate you 💕💫
So happy that you are enjoying your new rotation!
As a cath lab tech student I’m very excited for the cardiology videos!! Also the equipment can be intimidating at first but gets easier the more you see/use it
Your videos are always so encouraging to watch. Really loved the ending as a good reminder that we can work hard during the week doing things we love and look forward to breaks as well
it's crazy how people's interests are different. i am truly in love with cardiology not interested in OBGYN at all. good luck Rachel i wish you the best
Hey Rachel! I just wanna say your positive outlook on life inspire me to work harder and hopefully achieve great things is life 🥰
You are the most inspirational youtuber!! Thank you for posting consistently, I look forward to them every week! 💕
Aww this reminds me of my cardiology rotation as well. I'm horrible at presenting as well but I was forced to learn on that rotation haha. Loved this ❤❤
Hi there 🙂 glad to see you 😎

@@doctorharry hahaha
@@amplemedicallectures no problem 😊
I missed your vlogs from home :)
Happy new rotation Rachel
Love you Rachel! The technology with interventional cardio is so cool. I got to shadow my brother and the experience was great
just knowing that there are another poeple from the other half of the earth struggling as much as I'm if not more , just give me a boost of relief ( not because I like poeple to struggle but it just makes me feel less lonely ) enjoy your rotation :-))))
I would love if the cardiologist could appear in one of your future videos. Could you maybe talk more about what you see and what you are allowed to do?
I am very interested in cardiology :)
CARDIOLOGY SOUND SO FUN OMG i can’t waitttt to watchhhhh
I've been watching your videos and I'm so grateful for them as I will be matriculating into med school this fall! I've been in cardiology for a while working in the cath lab, so cards is my passion. However, as someone who's had 2 kids I would have loved you as my OBGYN. Thank you so much for the videos and showing your highs and lows and everything in between. You are appreciated!
Tap the lid of container on the side of the counter. loosens it everytime!
Can’t wait to watch more of your cardiac rotation. Cardiac is my passion!!! Woo hoo
So proud to see you killing it, even in the rotation that’s not your specialty!!❤️
It’s so nice that your preceptor tries to connect cardiology to OB GYN! And it is so nice to see you involved like that, even if it’s not OBGYN!
It’s very very inspiring, as usual. You’re going to be an amazing doctor. Because you’re going to use everything you’re learning for the mamas and the babies!!
Perfect!! ❤️❤️
😭😭 ty!
Keep it up, Rachel! I was born with a VSD, seeing a cardiologist pretty much annually most of my life. I always found that area of medicine to be really interesting yet incredibly challenging. Wishing you the best :)
omg doing procedures in cardiology sounds so COOL AHHHH
I love this vlog! Keep up the good work Rachel :)
I was born with tetralogy of fallot and I’m so excited to see this rotation!
Holy smokes!
Omg the rotation I’ve been waiting for!! 😍
I’m going into my nursing Med Surg cardiology rotation! Super excited to see your perspective.
sipping coffee and curling lashes is the height of skilled multitasking wow amazing
😂😂
Another great video - I love your vlogs so much !! :))
Love you girl. You motivate me so much to succeed in university, to never stop. Love your kind and lovely personality 💕 ❤ 💖 😘 keep going.
You trying to open that protein powder is me currently trying to open ANYTHING because I had LRTI surgery on my thumb 2.5 weeks ago 🤣
I also should put my phone elsewhere when I’m studying. I’m in my last 17 weeks of undergrad and MAN-I get so distracted. It takes me way longer than it should to get my work done. I might try that…beginning next term lol.
Really loved the vibe of this vlog!
I am learning the anatomy of the heart this week and it's been pretty cool. You got this Rachel! ❤️
Ooh new vid and new rotation!! So excited!! 🫀🩺
Hey Rachel! Loved this vlog. Could you please include some tips on how you manage time on calls- say with family/friends/boyfriend. I feel a lot of my day wasted while talking on phone(I speak to my bf around 4 times a day)
ey Rachel. I love your videos and I am glad you are doing cardiology. I was diagnosed with peripartum cardiomyopathy after giving birth to my daughter. It is pregnancy-induced heart failure. Not many doctors know about this condition. It is pretty rare but not rare enough to be unknown. Since you are going in OBGYN, it will be great to know the signs and symptoms of this illness so it can be caught in time. Unfortunately, my OBGYN did not catch the signs and dismissed them. Keep up the great work. I love your videos.
Girl ! Get some Mepilex Ag dressing . It will heal so much faster :)
I love how you deliberately went in to a rotation you have difficulty with . It really brings my hopes up about our future generation of MDs (older gen seem to be closed off to other specialties in an odd way) . You are going to be an outstanding physician just by how much effort you put in to knowing the little side aspects (your preceptor asking OBGYN specific cardio questions is beautiful !) .
Keep on keepin’ on !! Love your content.
Cheers
Oooo cardiology actually sounds really fun so excited to hear your thoughts! Can't beat obgyn but still will be good 👍
Use Cerave Healing ointment on your burn, it’s a really good salve for wounds like that! And then BioOil once it heals for the scarring :)
Ty!
omg I'm going through cardiology right now as well hahah so good to have someone sharing their experience ;) thx rachel!
Can you do a video that's like how to get started at the gym? I want to start going but I'm scared because I don't know where to start
During our OB rotation! I was able to watch a baby be born!! It was a vaginal birth! She pushed maybe 4 to 6 times! It was the most amazing thing I’ve ever watched! I want to see a c section.. as I’ve been on the receiving end. I love surgery
The thing about cardio, i love it so much but hated it cause of ekg and heart sounds lol
I akways look forward to your videos! They are so calm yet so motivating:))
New subscriber here! I hope to find a friend like you when I start med school this year 😊
Became a good doctor and serve humanity......very wisely...this is your well wisher from INDIA....🌷🌹🌸💐
THAANKS rachel for this dose of motivation 💜💜.. Good luck darling
Amazing rach, you motivate me a lot thank you, see u next weeks vlong .
You are just so inspirational
Love you!
Cardiology is very interesting however my impression that you luv labor and delivery. My impression lately is that here in New Jersey the nurse practitioners and physicians are over loaded with work. There are good and bad in the NP’s, I was prescribed the wrong med for URI which got progressively worse until I ended up in the ER, I had pneumonia. Two telehealth visits and they were so backed up I could not even get in to be seen. Anyway the system needs an overhaul, it’s frustrating.
I'm a medical assisting student and I noticed whether it's a MA an RN or a doctor everyone prefers obgyn that's my nightmare I have zero desire to work with pregnant woman I'd rather work in a internal medicine , surgeons office or in an ER ,keep the preggos away from me
8:42 made me laugh harder than I think it should have )))
THE OB/GYN PINS AWWW
God it's finally as a premed would love to know what in cardiology section😅
Red ants excited ❤🐜
In the building watching from Barbados 🙂
In college right now and watching your videos on my breaks makes me feel better about all the stressful things in life. 10/10. Also love the quality, what kinda camera do u use?
Don’t forget to check troponins
super random but I know you used to have a keurig and now you have a nespresso. I'm trying to decide which one to get and was wondering if you have any thoughts
8:40 LOL SO FUNNY, THAT MAKES TWO OF US
How much coffee do you drink in a day???
Greetings Ms.Southard,
Case Presentation is challenging in Surgery with complex scenario.
In cardiology, Anaphylactic reactions surely need attention. Take care.
Be Safe and Stay Safe,
With regards,

What kinda chair is that? Do you recommend any chairs for sitting so long at a desk?
Wow! AMAZING!
Great video!
I wanna get ur merch so badlyyyyy I probably will, im just sort of BROKE HEHEHE
Can’t waitt
as someone in medical school what is your opinion on taking a nursing program as an undergraduate? I've heard it's good because you're already doing a lot of labs, clinical's etc but I've also heard some people say it's a bad idea
Exactly
Your plant is so big!!!
She is sooo happy!!
Those previews are posted so early
24hrs in advance
@@RachelSouthard do you prefer anki over quizlet? Quizlet is amazing
Cardiology doesn’t seem so horrible and I’m glad for you about that. Do you have roommates again? Just curious because you only film in your room
I have 2 roommates!
What hospital are you doing ur rotation at. I'll actually be applying for my rotations soon and I really liked that you said that this is great program with a doctor that teaches well
It’s not a place with a residency :/
@@RachelSouthard no I meant like for my clinicals actually 😅
You probably get this a lot but you look so much like Lauren Bloom aka Janet Montgomery from New Amsterdam.
I’ve gotten that a few times actually!:)
Amazing videoo Rach hehe 🥰
Nice video Rachel.😍
Hey rachel I love watching your videos and you motivate me to do better and study harder but I failed 2 exams recently and it was so devastating and frustrating I am struggling to get back on track and make this failure a learning experience I know it's not easy but I feel I need advice do you have any tips ?what do you do if you ever felt this way ?
This is so random but I'm so glad I'm not the only one who peels bananas from the other side lmao
Is that tempeh?
Hii !!!! I love you videos ❤ I admire you alot
Can you name the song which was played in the end.... it's great!!
Yeah 😍😍 my fav cardiology
I wish I could mute my daughter while I study. I swear… I hear MOM? Mom? Hey mom? She waits until I put my AirPods in too. Its like when I go to the bathroom…. I go bathroom and it’s either gonna be here or my dogs scratching/knocking at the door.
Can somebody tell me the name of the song in the end? 😍
Hey,
Plz don't consider eating leafy vegetables, salads and banana at night, it creates uneasiness in the body causing difficulty to sleep, inefficient functioning and indigestion.
And best of luck for cardiology rounds, you'll get a lot of different cases
Be easy as Sunday morning 😂
Heart disease in pregnancy is very important so learn away future OBGYN!!!! Yaya
🥳🥳🥳
Can you have rotations in the NICU?
We can but I haven’t had any
Do you have EOR exams?
Yup! Not for electives though (this rotation is an elective)
Good luck 👌❤️❤️❤️ and love you
Like me you
♥️♥️♥️
Hey!!! Rachel this is Dr.Minhas a big fan of you from PAKISTAN. well i have watched almost all of your videos, because once a time i was in search of English lectures and English videos of native speaker for the purpose of improving my English by listening to them, and at that time i just got your video on my laptop screen, So as i clicked on your video the video was all about medical stuff and i got stuck to it till the end. after watching that i directly dived into your playlists and download full list and then i watched every single piece of content with full concentration and interest. Now i am addicted to your videos like_ BENZODIAZIPINE, BARTBITURATES, ... every week i wait for your new video as like Alzheimer patient wait for drug. (HAHA)..... RESPECT FROM PAKISTAN ..
Is it just me or are you moving house again? The last time I remember you don't put your desk and computer and stuff in your bedroom...
Moved a few months ago!
Lol ur such a nerd...cute😁
