As a young black man without a father in my household I truly appreciate you for giving me a chance to look into the life of some successful black men because I don't see alot around me THANK YOU SO MUCH
I hope you make it bro I’m a young white man who has a dad but I only see him in the evenings and on the weekends cuz he works like a dog to provide for my sister and me. He drives me to become a doctor because he doesn’t make much but works 24/7 Edit: but this isn’t about me 😅 good luck
Same here but a black girl and dad wasn't in my life. I have only seen 3 black doctors in my life EVER. And I'm 20. 1 visited my high school to speak, 1 is my eye doctor, and I saw one in passing at a clinic. I love seeing Black men and women in medicine! Woohoo :-D

Radiology captures me on how analytical and knowledge based it is. My knee was improperly diagnosed by a radiologist who missed damage in my knee that took another year to find out. I don't want anyone to have to go through what I did, and to get the info and treatment that would help them most. I feel like becoming a radiologist I can help the most people daily by reading scans and correctly reading them to then decide what treatments may be possible to improve their life. I'm 23 about to be 24. Excited about the possible future.
That sounds really cool. Keep up the good work Dr. Webb. I think you deserve an award for youth empowerment. Upon extensive reading and research, I have interventional radiology on top of my list (despite the procedural conflict between them and the vascular surgeons/interventional cardiologists).

Yes, I agree! Keep up the good work and try to keep an open mind about your specialty choice. You have time bc most people dont decide until 3rd/4th year of medical school

I always feel like people would look at you negatively if you say you like radiology because of the work life balance and possibility to work remote. I feel like you should not say this in residency interviews. Would you agree?
Hello Dr. Webb! Too much physicians talk Diagnostic Radiology will die as a specialty soon and most diagnostic radiologists are going into interventional radiology. What do you think about it?
There is a shortage of radiologists currently because, it seems, many students have taken this approach to fearing the future of the field. In short, because radiology is heavily technology based, it will need to change quickly in the future to accomodate patients and clinicians. Radiology and other dignostic fields will soon be augmented by machine learning and artificial intelligence, but not replaced. I have, in fact, been working to design algorithms and train computers to be able to detect lesions and assist in our day to day worklflow since 2016. I see the future of diagnostics merging as data becomes more malleable and as we are able to apply the technology to rapidly use it real time. For example, it would be really fun if we could understand about certain risk factors as we are viewing a patients CT scan based on all of the diagnostic information we have available about them (pathology, blood tests, lifestyle factors). This could be revolutionary in iteration and learning real time as opposed to waiting for studies to be published and clinical trials to be accomplished. Remember, there is nothing on the planet that rivals the potential of the human mind. There are many things that can augment it.
@Mr Forex The only way to become a board-certified diagnostic radiologist is to go to college for 4 years and do premed coursework - then take the MCAT, medical school for 4 years - then take the USMLE tests, and residency for 5 years as we are either Medical Doctors (MD) or Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) - then take the American Board of Radiology examinations to become board certified. Doing a fellowship is optional, but now almost all radiologists receive subspecialty training - there is an additional certificate of added quality that some subspecialists receive as well (CAQ).
@@ladair01 Dr. Adair, thank you for taking the time to interview for Dr. Webb's video it was extremely helpful to hear as a 3r year med student. Do you predict design algorithms and AI altering the demand of radiology to the point where it would significantly affect the job market in the near future?
Just discovered this video! Amazing. Currently a rising 3rd year. Taking my Step 1 in about a month, and starting rotations soon after. I have a strong anatomy background and have been considering radiology for some time now. What advice do you or Dr. Adair have for 3rd year students interested in the field? What can I do to stand out on my rotations?
Awesome! Thanks for watching and welcome to the family:) Great question. I would say go into every rotation with an open mind. You will change your mind a few times about which specialty. Ask a lot of questions. Find a mentor in that particular field (someone who is going through it with you, someone in residency and someone out of residency-so you can get all 3 perspectives.) Otherwise, be yourself, work hard, show up early and stay late! Good luck, make sure to subscribe and let me know if any other questions arise! Check out this video here: ruclips.net/video/ewTpMDWtyEE/видео.html
Rotations in radiology were very tricky as they are really a showcase of your emotional intelligence and willingness to be there rather than your knowledge of radiology. I think this is changing more and more as we are starting to see medical schools integrate anatomy with radiology. Standing out in radiology rotations actually means blending in. How well do you fit with the "culture" of the department? Doing research on a case that your attendings found interesting or some of the radiology residents were discussing and putting together a brief presentation on the topic would be great. Giving a presentation on a part of the anatomy that residents find cumbersome (i.e. the brachial plexus or the Couinauds liver segments) is always appropriate for a medical student.
Dr. Adair, The American Dental Association (ADA) recently introduced dental radiology as a new specialization. Do you think this a financially viable career option? Would you hire a dental radiologist as a partner in a medical radiology practice like yours?
Thats a great question. I would totally hire a dental radiooigist if we had contracts at hospitals that required this service. Veterinarian radiology is a subspecialty as well. It would all depend on the needs of our clinical partners and contracts.
Good suggestion! I will look into this! I think I may have found a Psychiatrist to interview!

Hi, you asked about Psychiatry a while back, check out this video here with Dr. Dion Metzger, a board certified Psychiatrist. ruclips.net/video/SulWi7Ka64I/видео.html
I was hoping to get some straight to the point answers with this video, but this man just talked and talked and talked! Helpful information, but a whole lot of filler it’s pointless stuff about himself. We don’t care about who you are and what you’re doing we just like to know what we have to do to get we’re we’re going!
My background is Civil Engineering. I’m considering a career change. I’ve always had an interest in medicine and was recently introduced to the field of radiology. I am already a degree student. What would my next step look like considering entering this field? Thx
Hi first you would need to do the pre reqs for medical school which are usually chemistry, biochemistry, physics, Calc and stats, etc and then take the MCAT. After that, most people are ready to apply. You will need letters of recommendation and a personal statement
Dj Civil you would want to take the basic medical courses General Chemistry, Biology, Organic Chemistry, and Physics and the Medical College Admissions Test.
Thanks for the video! Did he ever say how long his typical day is though? I don’t think he ever said how many hours a day/week he works? That would be helpful to know.
I work 40 hours a week generally, but I cover weekends about 8-10 weeks out of a year. weekends shifts are 8 hours per day. Some radiologists prefer to work 9 hours/day and 7 days per week with every other week off. This is called the week on/week off schedule. The schedules in radiology typically mimic the providers we work closely with, but for the most part, it is shift work and when we are off, we don't carry pagers. When we are on, we are busy.
Erhardt Gerber, we interpret the ultrasounds. Ultrasound technologists perform them. There are radiologists and physician extenders such as PAs and NPS locally in the hospital and outpatient to perform procedures
I'm not an expert in this, but it is possible as I saw students from the Caribbean schools get into radiology by doing well on their USMLE and doing impressive senior clerkships in various radiology departments. They worked hard and proved to clerkship directors that they were sure about doing radiology and that they were capable learners.
Orthopedics is more hands on however there is telemedicine that is on the forefront and I'm looking forward to seeing where that goes, specifically for ortho
After a lot of trial and error I’ve built a home based orthopedic surgery practice. The dishwasher is actually a decent steam sterilizer. I’ve confirmed one of my long held suspicions: all the “spirometry” and monitors anesthesia uses are just fake bells and whistles. They’re fakers. Jim Beam keeps them out just as good if not better.
They are 8 hours, but some can be up to 9 or 10 depending on how many days in a month you want to work. Our shifts in teleradiology began mimicking those of the highest volumes in the hospital and were similar to the Emergency Departments shifts. However, there is an increasing need for shifts during all times in the hospital presumably due to the increased amount of patients in the healthcare system now and the shortage of radiologists.

Is there an e-mail to contact Dr. Luther Adair regarding a ct scan that I had last week in Houston?
Unfortunately, I don't do these types of consultations, but most hospitals have a system to perform second opinions in a safe and effective way.
Thanks for the video! Did he ever say how long his typical day is though? I don’t think he ever said how many hours a day/week he works? That would be helpful to know.
I work 40 hours a week generally, but I cover weekends about 8-10 weeks out of a year. weekends shifts are 8 hours per day. Some radiologists prefer to work 9 hours/day and 7 days per week with every other week off. This is called the week on/week off schedule. The schedules in radiology typically mimic the providers we work closely with, but for the most part, it is shift work and when we are off, we don't carry pagers. When we are on, we are busy.
how do you an ultrasound and procedures from home?
Erhardt Gerber, we interpret the ultrasounds. Ultrasound technologists perform them. There are radiologists and physician extenders such as PAs and NPS locally in the hospital and outpatient to perform procedures

is it hard to be a surgeon
As an IMG, i want a radiology residency. Can you guide me on what step scores i need to have, us clinical experiences, LORS, research work?
@loyal4 the way lol no it's not.
I'm not an expert in this, but it is possible as I saw students from the Caribbean schools get into radiology by doing well on their USMLE and doing impressive senior clerkships in various radiology departments. They worked hard and proved to clerkship directors that they were sure about doing radiology and that they were capable learners.
Can you do orthopedics from home?
Orthopedics is more hands on however there is telemedicine that is on the forefront and I'm looking forward to seeing where that goes, specifically for ortho
After a lot of trial and error I’ve built a home based orthopedic surgery practice. The dishwasher is actually a decent steam sterilizer. I’ve confirmed one of my long held suspicions: all the “spirometry” and monitors anesthesia uses are just fake bells and whistles. They’re fakers. Jim Beam keeps them out just as good if not better.
how many hours are your shifts?
They are 8 hours, but some can be up to 9 or 10 depending on how many days in a month you want to work. Our shifts in teleradiology began mimicking those of the highest volumes in the hospital and were similar to the Emergency Departments shifts. However, there is an increasing need for shifts during all times in the hospital presumably due to the increased amount of patients in the healthcare system now and the shortage of radiologists.
