You deserve this so much and can’t express how grateful i am for you and how proud all of us here all of us are of you!
OMGGGGGGG YOUR BACKK!!!!!!!!! good luck in everything that you do and most definitely you have made us proud!!
Welcome back dude!! Thank you so much for your MCAT tip videos. I am studying for the exam this summer and they've been a life saver. You def deserve the love and support. Good luck with everything in your future!
When I started watching you was the same time I was studying for my master's degree. I recently graduated. Welcome back!
Congrats!!!! I admire your discipline!!!
Bro I used to watch your videos as motivation to study hard and get into med school. Now I just finished my first year and I see that you've graduated, congratulations!
Which country are you in? How much of a result is needed in the A/Ls to get selected to Med school?
I am a Sri Lankan and we need an Z score of 2.5 to get selected. Which is about 2A passes and a B pass.
@@Photo_doctor Hi, I'm in Quebec (Canada) and we need an R Score of about 35, which is the equivalent of a Z score of 2, or 2 standard deviations from the average. On top of that, we have 2 interviewing phases, the first one eliminates about 75% of students, and the second one about 50% of students.
Bro locked in and came back better than eva
Watching you balance it all (working out, medicine, islam) is inspiring!
As an ICU nurse for the last 17 years, I can tell you that you need to enjoy your work, be humble, laugh, joke around when you have some down time and the nurses will take care of you. Your story is very inspiring, you have a great and positive attitude. Time will fly by. Next thing you know, your residency will be over. Take care.
I haven’t clicked on a video this fast in YEARS! Congratulations and welcome back 🎉
Same!!!!
I used to watch your medical student videos and now you’re a doctor!!! congratulations 🎉
I was in undergrad using your videos to help me study and now i am 9 months into PA school, time flies its insane. Congrats on becoming an MD!
“Could never be me, are you sure about that.” I’m adopting this line of thinking. Your re-routing of positive thinking is already starting to show! Thank you and congratulations on MD
Omg, it kinda makes me emotional watching this from seeing the med school vlogs and then now ur a doctor! Your constant motivation is what’s gonna keep motivating people! So proud of your continued growth! ❤️
That speech at the end is better than hundreds of motivational videos out there.
Praying your prayer while running on schedule is the most impressive.
I am so impressed too.
The best advice I learned from several different clinicians through the years I was in school - those letters behind your name mean nothing if you are not constantly working to fulfill their meaning. So every day you need to put your best foot forward, treat everyone (coworkers and patients) with respect, know your patient comes first even if you are supposed to be getting off shift (so even if you have to stay late you do whatever your patient needs), show appreciation for everyone you are learning from (doctors, nurses, technicians, specialists), and know you are only as good as your patient thinks you are. The last one is probably the hardest to learn. You can be an awesome doctor but your patient may not think so if you have failed to show them you care, if you look and sound like an idiot (you are incompetent and you don’t know what you are doing) or if you have a God complex ( you think you know everything already so you don’t need to consult, refer, or ask questions), if you lack compassion for your patient, or you don’t really listen to your patient (sometimes you have to REALLY listen to hear what your patient is saying). Everyday you step into your white coat you have to re-commit to your hippocratic oath. You no longer allowed to have a bad day. Your patients and coworkers have their own stresses, and don’t deserve to be burdened by yours. If you are having a bad day ask yourself what you need to do to act professionally. You may be able to leave, but more likely you need to adjust your own attitude so everyone can get through the day. Your attitude, good or bad, will be reflected back to you by the people you are around. Don’t be afraid to admit you don’t know something. But commit to the idea that you will get the correct answer for your patient and you will return to them with that answer. Remember tho-You will only get respect from that patient if you actually follow through with getting the answer to them. Half a$$ing it is not allowed. So good luck and cheers!
lmao is this why doctors burn out after 5 years, sounds like terrible advice
@@Coconinga If you are doing what you are really passionate most of these things come quite easily. The doctors that thrive are the ones that these things come naturally. Of course no one can do all of these things all of the time. That isn’t human. If you have a death in your family your team at work will grieve with you, because you (hopefully) care for each other. But if you are starting shift with a dirty dr’s coat and a tear stained face, then you need to step back and ask yourself why. Not everyone is cut out to do human medicine. There is no shame in that. It takes all of us doing whatever it is we do that keeps the world going.
@@ahoward3819 sure but at the end of the day you have to take care of yourself before others self-prioritization is important
@@abraarhuq9221 Hopefully you learn to balance everything so you aren’t doing all of one thing and none of the other. Taking care of yourself is very important. No one else will do it for you, and you can not help others if you are not taking care of yourself. But really it isn’t hard to prioritize helping others too. If you can’t figure out the balance then you will be miserable. But if you can’t uphold the oath you took for your profession, then you shouldn’t have taken the oath in the first place.
@@ahoward3819 no one said that I wouldn't uphold the oath, and obviously we want to help the patients. i'm just saying ur rhetoric shaped by your original comment has been used in the past to justify how medicine is a pure "passion" field that can justify its abuses to the residents and the shrinking autonomy it gives to physicians. of course each person has to take care of themselves but sometimes its good to ask how the physician is doing not just the patient. my two cents. 🤷♂
I remember when we were both medical students, and now we’re on our respective residency training! How time flies so fast.
Best of luck to us both Dr. Shahin🙌
THANK YOU for posting!!! Med student here, and I'm constantly in search of vlogs where healthcare workers are able to balance exercise and eating well with studying/working. Inspiration. You're killing it, keep it up!
So glad that you're back. I've been missing your videos because you are an amazing motivation for me to keep studying and striving. Your time management skill is outstanding. Being able to do residency and filming, editing together is just top tier. I am still looking forward to any of your new videos in the future. Thank you 🎉
That was the best send off speech I have ever heard!!! You, Doctor, are on your way to greatness!
Got business taken care of and now is a whole doctor 👨⚕️ love to see it! 💯 use to watch just to motivate my studying and have videos playing while I studied myself.
I remember watching your videos when I was doing my prereqs for nursing school, trying to stay motivated lol, and now here I am about to graduate nursing school 🎉, congrats on becoming a doctor! I’ve been trying to work through my anxiety as well, everyday is a journey
I used to watch your videos for inspiration when I was studying for the LSAT for law school. I just graduated as well, about to take the Bar, and am starting my career at a large international law firm in October. Glad to have you back and that you’re thriving! Mashallah🙏🏽
I started following you during my junior year of high school when I committed myself to medicine, now I'm going into my senior year of undergrad eagerly awaiting the results of med school applications. It's such a trip to see how you've progressed to this point, you are truly an inspiration keep it up man.
Ahmad, you just gonna graduate medical school and match into residency and NOT SAY ANYTHING?!! Congratssss 🥳🎉
FINALLY! Excited for the comeback! (Also loved the prayer part :))
Masha'Allah so happy for you!! Was waiting for your vlog! May you do well Ameen!🌸
This was so soothing, inspiring, and peaceful to watch. Very nice best of luck!!!!
Clicked and watched you for first time. As a 2d year doctoral researcher, I am taking a break. My mental health cannot take the strain rn. I congratulate you because I know how hard it is.
Appreciated this video- as a 46 yo f patient who has FSGS (relapse) undergoing PLEX AND retuximab right now. I’m on day 2 of my hospitalization of a relapse of min 10-11 days. Inpatient. It’s freaking hard as the patient. To see doctors like yourself care so much is helpful. Shiley placed. That’s where I’ve got so far. Need 5-7 PLEX AND 2 retux. This is a teaching hospital on LI. It’s very awesome to hear your words honestly! I know these residents and fellows are new this month for the year… but to see you understand the gravity of your position is very assuring.
WELCOME BACK!!! Starting Med school in a few weeks and that ending really got me excited!
This video was amazzzzzzing! You’re killing it Dr Shahin!! Your patients are so lucky to have you - a kind, considerate doctor who has a genuine head on his shoulders is hard to come by! Congratulations on all your success and matching dermatology!! Don’t ever forget what an amazing achievement that is! Can’t wait for the next vid!
YOU’RE BACK I’m so proud of you and excited to be apart of your journey as a doctor 💕💕💕💕
We’re so back indeed
I dont usually comment on youtube but this time i had to. I watched you throughout med school and im now a few months before my internship year in Germany dealing with the reality that being a student is almost over. Seeing that you have graduated made me feel so happy for you. Your genuine nature and humbleness are what make you unique on this platform and i hope that doesn't change. Keep doing what you do an i wish you the best luck on your rotation!
I watched your videos back when you were a second year med student and got so many tips from you for studying for the mcat. I’m so proud of you! You locked in and came back a doctor!
The ending sentence has me in tears. Thank you for your honesty.
Move over Dr. Mike! This is how you build anticipation!
Seeing your video put such a HUGE smile on my face… welcome back✨ first you motivated and inspired us, now you’ve made us all proud. Congratulations and so many wishes for your continued success brother!!
We really missed you. Your journey to medicine was something I followed very closely and was inspired by. I used your study with me during college and MCAT. The amount of hours I used it made it feel like I have known you for ever lol. Congratulations on getting it done. 🎉💚
You're my biggest motivation to keep up with fitness while going through med school. I've never seen any other "med-youtuber" mix fitness and medschool, keep up the good work!
Immediately exited MS era and entered MD era 😂❤ welcome back, DR. SHAHIN!
Welcome back man, I've missed you so much, May Allah always keep blessing you cause your content is just so meaningful and you bring a lot of positivity and joy to your content, it's just amazing, Love you man and can't wait for more upcoming videos.
I haven’t been so excited to see a RUclipsr post in so long! I am so glad you’re back brother and I hope you keep posting throughout your residency so we can stay informed on your journey!! 🎉
I love watching your video and the positive vibes and how you reflected I feel that with my MCAT prep since I take it in 1 month 😊

Good morning Doctor-welcome back indeed. I've watched your original video's from years back. Congratulations from New Zealand

I have been watching since your start and to see where you are now! You are a huge inspiration that it can be done! Also that its not impossible and anything is achievable if you work hard and believe in yourself so thank you very much for that! I really needed this recently so thank you!
I throughly enjoyed the insights into your mind. Not many RUclipsrs are transparent about their thought processes, so I respect you for that. Love the vids, doc!
I can't describe how much I missed your videos You deserve all the best...sooo proud of U Ahmed
Dude, we are all so proud of you!! You locked in BIG TIME! Congratulations Dr., well deserved!

Alhumdulillah so glad to see your killing it! I'm just about to start med school in just a couple weeks now, and i so greatly appreciate all your pointers and advice. Love to see you winning, inshaAllah better and better things to come
Mashallah brother, you were my inspiration to go to med school ever since I saw your channel when I was a 2nd year nursing student. I have now graduated and currently studying for my licensure exam as nurse. I plan to enter medicine after passing the exam and you're one of the motivating factors for it brother. Congratulations!
Starting residency on ICU 😱 Can't wait to follow this journey 💪
Oh my goodness I remember watching your previous videos in school as an aspiring medical student and now I start this year in the UK. Loved your Study With Me videos, they genuinely helped me to focus. May Allah reward and bless you for the people you help, I hope I can become a successful doctor like you one day InshaAllah! 🙏
I remember watching you for inspiration when you were a med student, while I was in the library studying for the MCAT and grinding to get into med school. I finally entered med school and I see that you graduated, huge congrats! :)
finally, so glad to have u back here, i've been waiting. cant wait to see ur next steps
First Lewis Hamilton returns. Now DR. Shahin…what a week its been! Congrats on beginning residency brother 🫶🏻
I am sooo glad you're back man! Congrats on securing the MD.
Congratulations Ahmad, your videos kickstarted my grind through Engineering school. Can’t thank you enough for that.
That last statement was really inspiring, your positivity is quite infectious. :)

I admire you so much. I started to follow you from your first MCAT videos and now you are living the dream. That was a very inspiring ending sentence
Smile when you put that coat on, Doc - you earned it!
it's been so long! I started watching your videos when i was in my first year now im in my fourth and you already graduated wish you all the best and success.
thanks for the motivation
I’ve looked forward to this video all day! I’ve missed you! Congratulations on your success and graduation!
I love those little buddies in the video and at the dinner table! 😊
I was an ICU nurse for 4 years before going into clinical research and ultimately would love to go to medical school. I went right into the ICU after graduating school and your mindset is the same one I had and it will take you a long way! Good luck buddy - continue with the self-care and mental health self-checks and you’ve got this! So excited you’re back to sharing :) 🫶
Congrats! For some reason I always admire doctors like nothing else as someone with severe medical anxiety. Someday I hope to be a neuropsychologist and know as much as you do!
Good luck with everything! Now Get out there and be a good Doctor!
So proud to see you reaching your goals and seeing your dreams through! ❤Glad to see you back!
I’ve been watching you since you first started . I’ve thought about u so many times. Hoping you made it..AND YOU DID 👏.

Congratulations Doctor! That is quite an accomplishment. I couldn't do it myself but I admire someone like you who can.
Woooow so glad to see you back and CONGRATULATIONS Dr! You have such a serious job how do you unwind and unplug though? I see your very nice apt but it does really look like a “home”, no photos on the walls, no real warmth. I hope you take the time take the time to create that for yourself!
Will try to unpack this in a future vid :)
Allahuma Barik. I remember watching your MCAT video when I was in college and now I’m about to start med school in a few days. Happy to see you succeed
