    Hi Eric. I am a medical student in my penultimate year, and have been finding it hard to focus my study given the vast topics we are bombarded with. Your medical lectures have been very helpful in addressing key areas of learning. I am sure I dont speak alone, I want to thank you for putting in the time and effort to make these and hope you will be making new videos if time allows in the near future!

      Cheers for this, I been tryin to find out about "nash liver disease symptoms" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Bachalaswin Better Body Rule - (do a google search ) ? Ive heard some great things about it and my cousin got cool success with it.

      Cheers for this, I have been researching "liver cirrhosis symptoms" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Bachalaswin Better Body Rule - (just google it ) ? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my mate got great results with it.😎👍

    Thank you so much! This video is fantastic. I love how you always explain things in great detail, but at the same time keep it simple enough to understand even if I haven't watch other videos (or can't remember things such as the coagulation cascade). I love how you reinforce information, summarize it and tell us practical information. Please keep making videos. I have to make time to watch them all!

    Hey Dr Strong. Just wanted to say a huge thank you for all the work you do putting together your superb material. I find your videos to be invaluable learning resources. Thank you so much. I was wondering whether you have any tips on how to approach knowledge filtration in medicine, as in, how to decide what to focus on learning. I think a common problem for knowledge-hungry people is finding everything interesting, and wanting to be able to commit it all to memory, for our own pleasure as well as for the benefit of our patients. For many this is unrealistic. During your training (or perhaps still today), did you have a particular litmus test for deciding what to learn and what to simply read and find interesting? Thanks again for everything.
