ZDogg this same thing happened to my former husband, may he RIP. He was so disappointed, crushed. Doctors need a union, a radical union to protect them
Doctor Z, we need thousands of more doctors, nurses, PA’s, NP’s, and all the other allied health providers to join you on this crusade to change a terribly broken and uncaring system. Thank you for leading the way and informing everyone.
I am currently completing my last 7 month of FNP school. I have been a RN for 20 years and can't wait to become a primary care provider. After completing part one of my case study yesterday (taking me 12 solid hours of research) I found your video "Ain't no way to die video" and have been watching your videos for the last 1.5 hours even though I'm extremely tired from working, school, and caring for my children and husband and I should be asleep, I just couldn't stop playing your videos. This provided a sense of appreciation for all of the hard work and sacrifice that is going into my education, and this video in particular gave me a sense of hope. My journey as a RN started in 1995 and I feel like I have only reached the surface of a wonderful journey. Can't wait. Thanks again. PS. I feel like I need to cite and reference in this comment. LOL... Wendy
Enjoyed this talk almost as much as your videos, which, although very entertaining, also carry a very good message that hits home. I love your idea of changing health care. As an Oncology RN here in Arizona, i left my job for a year to help a doctor pursue opening her private clinic, but the insurances were the death of a good thing. During that time, as she couldn't afford health insurance, my husband and i joined a group that shared medical costs, and i learned about private ambulatory surgical clinics and how inexpensive health can be managed if we only practice preventative medicine, as they do in Canada. So much of our healthcare and insurance costs are due to litigation from a public who want a free ride from a lawsuit. Best of luck in your new venture. I would love to come and see your concept of real true healthcare. As Hippocrates said, "Let your food be thy medicine, and thy medicine thy food."
Nice talk. I'm a medical student, and ex cancer patient. It was only my doctors' words that got me to believe, got me to feel like I had a choice in how I viewed my disease; that allowed me to choose to be happy despite it all.
As I've gotten further and further into med school and met more and more students, doctors and other healthcare staff though... I've noticed that doctors, they seem to lose faith in their profession, in their ability to make a difference the further they get into their careers. We start off thinking we're gonna change the world... but when we see the same suffering happening over and over again, when we see examples of the system, the world around us failing us and when we feel the pressure, the burden of those 12 hour shifts, or never-ending study and fear of looking stupid, or failing... we can't help but lose that sentiment. I see it in med students and junior doctors a lot, but I mean the stats on this dissatisfaction felt by the entire profession, they speak for themselves. We doctors have the highest rates of depression, alcoholism. We're 2nd highest in suicide rates...
We often hate what we do. And we hate our lives because of it too.
But something I want all you med students and doctors out there to know... despite how hard it gets at times, despite the suffering you may see happen too often, in the clinic, in the world, despite the burden on your shoulders you DO still have the power to make a difference.
You always will.
I can tell you from personal experience that the little things... just feeling like you're being cared for, a little talk, a comforting pat, they can mean EVERYTHING for someone in their hardest times. I'm not exaggerating when I say this - It can change lives.
It doesn't have to take much from you... it doesn't have to be an extra mile you run for someone - but these little things, they don't only make our lives better... they make yours too. Because if you be that person who's there for people in their toughest times, instead of thinking, here we go again... another late shift... instead of crying because you seem to meet constant failure... instead of dreading, and counting down the hours til your next shift... you'll go into work thinking, whose day can I make, whose life can I ease... whose life can I change.
And that can be the difference between YOU getting through tough times and not.
So you've gotta do it.
Great talk again, keep your heads up guys. Nikhil

I am a cancer patient myself and I am hoping to be able to return to school and earn a degree in registered nursing. Must have been very difficult to go into medical school. Good job.
I have wanted to work towards a medical doctorate, but I don’t think I can do it now. I’m stage 4 melanoma and 40 years old already. I do want to become a registered nurse at least. It took me a long time to finally realize that was my passion. I had thought it was defending my country as a soldier in the US army. I did enjoy it, but it wasn’t my calling. I thought helping people and keeping my people safe as a law enforcement officer was my calling. Although I enjoyed much of it and learned a lot, it wasn’t my calling either.
After my first surgery to remove a melanoma infected lymph node in my neck I realized my calling was medicine. The surgeons, the oncologists, and the nurses I met going through that made me realize that was what I was meant to do.
I took all my courage and mustered myself to resign from 10 years of law enforcement and enroll in community college to fill out prerequisites and enter a BSN program. Unfortunately early in my first semester I began having really scary symptoms. I had a brain tumor growing on the Broca’s area of my brain. It caused me, among many other things, to not realize what was actually happening. I thought I was just sick from a flu? It was that time of year when those bugs start showing up. Then I couldn’t talk, or write. I was already feeling too sick to do anything, so I wasn’t doing very well in class. In my confusion I was lucky to have messaged my oncology nurse. Somehow she could make sense of what I was saying and forced me to go to emergency. She called ahead so they knew I was coming and what she believed was happening so I got scanned and admitted so quickly. Met the heroic neurosurgeon that was going to save my life. He was on the team that save Gabrielle Giffords.
Now I still don’t feel that I’ve recovered well enough, but hopefully soon I will return to school. I want to help people as I have been helped
@@DoveEnigma13 This underrated comment needs more attention! Thanks for the reminder as a second year med-student!
@@DoveEnigma13 Blessings to you - How's it going these days? (2022)
@Nikhil Autar
That is a truly inspiring video! Thank you and Blessings to you ~
Z DoggMD I love all your talks, and your honesty. As a Tamra Care Nurse, they really make sense, not only in healthcare but in all business practices. I share as much as possible. Thank You, Michael RN
I'm a registered nurse, pursuing medical school. This is a great inspiration.
Jazmine O Best of luck on your path! Great time to go into medicine, change is coming.
This deserves at least 150 million more views. And you deserve at least 151 million subscribers. So humorous and really made my day today. Thank you!
I LOVE your honesty, ZDogg. I so enjoy your RUclips vid's. Your education is appreciated. You say with humor & music what "we providers" think & feel. We are time-pressured & make critical decisions daily. THEN, there's the EHR, & insurance companies dictating every aspect of care. I have been an NP since 1989. I love pt care. Love wellness. Love education. The NP model has always been wellness focused, but there is little time for that in the current healthcare environment. Your healthcare concept in LV is wonderful!! I hope it is a spring-board! COLLABORATION! I wish you & your family well!!! Best wishes ZDogg & skibuni333.
I love you. I’m a burnt out MT(ASCP). I quit 6 years ago. Tired of being treated like a factory worker on an assembly line run by bean counters who worship the dollar above everyone else and who consider the patients the enemy. I’ve worked in three hospitals where the culture is TERRIBLE. We have got to change.
Karen Abrams retired MT ( ASCP) here. Agree 100%. At the end of my career we were so short staffed that the quality of patient care I was accustomed to providing was no longer possible. I quit a year early. Done. Sad state of affairs
I am honestly inspired. Thank you Dr. Damania.
As a nurse I have gone through the same feelings. I entered Nursing, a profession that my 2 sisters, Mother and Grandmother all chose to dedicate their lives too, I had all of these wonderful plans to make use my knowledge and compassion and give my patients the best possible care possible. The reality, I was not able to provide those patients with the treatment I so desperately wanted to give. The system is letting our patients, Doctors, Nurses and other health professionals down. The structure is not working. Unfortunately I found myself in the bed as a patient after multiple spinal fractures. That was the when the very service that is in place to heal and treat me, let me down. Time after time, I was disillusioned, re traumatised, not listened too, apprehensive at seeking help and felt totally let down, my condition worsened and my mental health then suffered, leading to a break down due to an untreated pain disorder, missed diagnoses, unsuccessful surgeries, missed complications not picked up on scans, felling like I was not being taken seriously and the lack of compassion and kindness from those who are meant to do a job, failed miserably..
Z, I really enjoyed this, you rocked that TedTalk!
Thanks for sharing this to us ~ fan/tribe member Laura Tencelski
You're inspirational, and folks need that. I appreciate you, you give me a hopeful feeling, that's contagious. As my mom would say, you've got something the boweavils can't eat!
That's southern, for you are really something special, and handsome, too!! Blessings upon you and your family today.
DoctorZ, usted es una persona muy pero muy chingona!!!
This had to be one of the best TEDTalks I have ever seen !!! We are very proud of you , our BROWN Hermano chingon!!!
I love this. such a great idea. I'm a former CVICU RN getting ready to start on my FNP. Have always said, and debated with my UT Health professors, the idea of taking insurance out of primary care. I love the idea of Turntable health. Hope to be able to create that environment some day in my own practice. :) Thank you, you are very inspiring!
skibuni333 Shucks, thanks! Best of luck!
A lot of humbug. Bollox
Love this talk by you. Love the idea of turntable health. I am an FNP student with the hopes of graduating next year.
thank you for the speech, the system needs to wake up ... doctors need to love their work again.
Z DOGG I love how you include your father. He's a good man. How do I know this? Because YOU!!#
Very inspiring talk. In my career i have felt the same. Even have left some position from a too strong " ethos" . Congratulations on your new adventure.
U just gave this 20 tenure nurse hope for the future, TY
Tony's move was very innovative. Much like what you are doing. I really think you are on to something, and I love that you are teaching through videos, in a way the general public can understand. Just watched the stroke video and the common person wouldn't generally know what FAST means. Thank you for what you do. You have made medicine exciting again for me too. I'm in FNP school, and would love to open a primary care center for the underserved. You've given me new ideas! Keep the videos coming!
You give me hope! ER nurse here
Awesome Ted Talk ZDogg. This video rings so true for so many physicians especially since the pandemic. Burnout is on steroids these days in the healthcare industry. Few realize the healthcare crisis that involves a shortage of providers in the near future.
LOVE! Love this concept! So want to be a part of this revolution as an NP! The old system is SO broken on all levels!
LOVE LOVE LOVE! The idea that we can turn the face of medicine around is so exciting. Collaboration at it's best.
Thank you!
I´m so motivated after watching this video!!
This is fantastic and timely. Keep up the good work.
Todd Rowland MD
It is hard being a Dr in America. But, being a patient is no cakewalk. Getting a proper diagnosis is an uphill effort with no assurance you Will get the Right diagnosis. When will we fix the practice of medicine, as this is overdue. And, don't even get me started on the pricing of healthcare services. Why do people get so excited about an electric car. Give me healthcare that protects my health and is humane Please! This man has a lot of energy, is likable and he does pull you in.
This is an incredibly interesting buisness idea and one that I think is the future of healthcare. As an EMT-B student who's taking the NREMT in May, I've got a question for you: how is emergency health care integrated into the Turntable health system? Is it even integrated? I'd imagine with this level of primary care, much of the EMS system would become unnecessary - hypoglycemia patients, chest pain, etc, etc. Of course, Turntable Health couldn't prevent much of the trauma calls, but the medical calls I'd imagine would happen less and less.
My class (I'm turning eighteen in a couple days) and my generation are becoming the future of healthcare, and I hope that this model is the one we come into.
Cheers!
Rae
+Rachael Lierheimer Community paramedicine is actually an ideal integration into the "Turntable" sort of healthcare ecosystem. Beyond the scope of a RUclips comment, but glad you're passionate about this. Best of luck in your studies!
ZDoggMD I laugh so hard at this I became incontinent of urine and stool. I'm calling my lawyer...
This is really fantastic! I'll be applying to medical school soon, and honestly, I've debated for a long time about whether or not medicine was the path for me because I was afraid that I would find something that didn't match the idea of health care that I am passionate about and I would be part of the 50% of docs who if given the chance, would have done something different. How can someone in the early stages of their medical career not play into the system when that is ultimately where our path leads? Should we all just go to Vegas?
I will be going in the Fall, and from what I've seen and heard personally, the difference between someone loving their job as a physician and someone who doesn't is how empowered they feel to change it. I chose medicine because I want the ability to change someone's life for the better with knowledge, emotional support, and tangible skill, but I also am fully aware of the drawbacks. I'm willing to enter into that system because I think I can do something to change it. This is why I have shaped my desire to go into medicine based upon a dual career goal of becoming a clinician and a reformer (advocate for others, improvement-minded physician). (I'll let you know in 20 years whether or not I still feel like I have agency.)
shut the fuk up premed
Yeah just become a sales person for the medical companies.
Understand early that the system is not there for your welfare. The system don't care about you. Practice good self care habits early.
This is ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!! LOVE IT!
Dude I love this I wish you had something in Reno,NV as well as vegas
Just found this video And Now I know why I follow you brah
I was passionate and driven to join the healthcare community. Unfortunately I also decided to grow some melanoma tumors at the same time.
I left a career in corrections to start my education in nursing (too old to start to be a medical doctor) which I have to say. Corrections is much worse than healthcare. We used a computer system written in COBAL. Anybody remember cobal? It wasn’t even high tech when it was developed. Horrific.
If my scans stay clear, which is already a miracle. Or at least very low probability for my case. I blame immunotherapy. I would be dead if it wasn’t for keytruda. I believe that for sure. Stage 4 melanoma with brain mets was a death sentence 10 years ago with average life expectancy 5-7 months from googling.
Back to if scans stay clear. I’m going to go back to school and work my ass off to earn a registered nursing degree. Hopefully the BSN program that we have here, and join you in making health 3.0 happen if I can. I can tell you that being a cancer patient in the current way healthcare is handled is not easy. Even though I feel the healthcare system that treats me is better than the average you guys complain about, I can still see how hard it is on the providers and nurses.
Keep up the good work you do Doc and hopefully I can join you in treating people like you should be able to.
Thank you for entertaining and educating me
Inspiring message with a great delivery. I hope it's possible!!!
really?
Np student here living in Clovis! Preach my brotha
maybe, just maybe, you are in the wrong profession? Ever thought about being a comedian??? You are the funniest MD I have ever seen!!
funny people are usually brilliant
Doctors in the AMA started and promoted the HMO/fee-for-service system. They fought single payer healthcare in the early 1900's, the 1960's, and even now. The arguments against single payer hinge on one thing: the fear that a universal system would destroy physician autonomy. This has contributed to: The rise in useless but powerful administrators over the decades, which has already destroyed physician autonomy; a dilution of the original RN-MD staffing, which has resulted in workers who don't know how to treat patients from a medical perspective (lab techs, therapists, naturopaths, etc...); the rise in cost of primary and hospital care practices. Z made a nice and entertaining talk. But he points to the problems in the system, without placing emphasis on understanding how it got to where it is now. That's a more important discussion.
That's an *equally important conversation* to have.
You sound educated in that topic, have you considered making a video about it?
How about an update? How about another dispelling the myth of burnout? Not burnout, but physician abuse. Zombification is another affect of the system on physicians.
You are amazing so inspiring!
This is hilarious. Love it! Great talk
How do I be you? I'm only a med student but I still take hour long showers :P
This speaks for veterinarians too..
Speaks for all doctor's. Vets are no exception..
Except dentists. Lifestyle doctor's haha

Awesome talk, but I could see some jokes were not getting laughs, I they have stayed in the system for so long their they lost part of themselves.
Dude. This is hilarious. Very well written speech. You need more eye contact though. Less hand motions and more deliberate pacing. Take this from a guy that just took fifth in my companies expository speaking competition.
