Wow and here I am complaining about my 8 hour shift at foot locker
ha
Lol sales Lead shifts be crazy too
Facts lmaoo
hell yea
FyeHunnit lmfao same
I am 15 years old, last July my brother was in a off-roading accident on a all terrain side by side and broke his femur, 4 ribs, left ankle, and fractured both his wrists as he was thrown from it along with many other injuries. People like you saved my brothers life and lives of thousands of others. I hope to be an ortho surgeon when I grow up so I can make a greater difference in the world. He will make a full recovery. Thank you for all you do.
Thanks for sharing! I pray that your brother is doing well. Ortho is a great and rewarding field! Keep up the good work, and stay in touch!
Dr. Webb
wish you all the best I hope ur journey of becoming an orthopedic is successful
sauce god im a 16 y/o and i want to be a cardiac surgeon and save lives
sauce god why'd you state your age?
An 12 year old lol look at your channel name.. you stated yours if it's not false
I find it strange that a truck driver can only drive 12 hours at a time but a surgeon can do surgeries after being awake for 30 hours.. we live in a backwards world man.
Yeah, good point.
No...Dr's don't get pain well....
I agree
No shit...
Thats not why its illegal though. He is right.
I have just discovered medical vloggers and I love it.
Here is were nurses play a HUGE part keeping Docs Rested and not bothered for NON emergent needs..
Yes, nurses are a HUGE part of the team and play an important role in the overall care of the patients
I remember being a new nurse, there’s always an experienced warrior nurse who interrogates you before you page an attending. Now I’m that nurse. Takes everyone on the team to work together for the best patient outcomes. Working on my TCRN certification now.
The nurse takes CARE of the patient, the doctor treats the patient! Huge difference!
@@jenniferburkhart6908 no, the nurse cant take care of the patient...nurses are overworked and have to many patients to take care of. Visit a hospital before you comment
Jennifer Burkhart unfortunately you’re got it wrong..... Nurses help doctors to treat patients.
Richard Webber is quaking.
rickygreengiant dont ever come for DR. Richard Webber M.D first black chief of surgery at Seattle Grace Hospital ever again thank you very much
Rose Naomi YESSSS...!!! 😂😂❤️
LMAOO i came here because im binge watching random greys scenes and his name reminded me of webber
😂😂😂😂
Ughhh I love Webber !!!! Such a cutie
I live right around the block to the Medical Center where you are employed.. I always try to say a little prayer when I hear the helicopter.
Thank you, we need it! 🙏
Dj LadyMc aww cute
aww that is so nice
awwww
I use to work in Patient Registration at the hospital doing 12 hour shifts
Huge respect for your profession. I had an accidental discharge of my firearm while I was cleaning it. The .40 cal hollowpoint entered my left upper thigh, exited the lower thigh then entered my backside calf and remained lodged in. I was taken into North East Georgia Medical Center as a level 1 trauma(By the grace of GOD I missed my femoral artery by less then 2 centimeters and my popliteal artery by very little. I didnt hit any bones nor tendons.) A trauma surgeon by the name of "Gregory Strauther" was there and performed a Faciotomy. After 3 months of waiting for the muscle to granulate he then installed an ABRA system on my leg to close the surgical wounds. If it wasn't for fine men/women like yourself I wouldn't be alive. Thank you for your work!
PS: I have absolutely no side effects, I can walk, run and lift weights perfectly fine. My recovery has been remarkable.
Wow! Thanks for sharing! Believe it or not we see accidental firearm injuries more than we would like. Keep pushing forward!
😂😂😂😂😂 idiot
Didn't you lose muscle fibers because of the accident ? Wouldn't that affect strength ?
Atlanta 11 Falcons glad your ok but why the hell would you clean it while it’s loaded!!??
JACK rumsey thats what i thought ....
For people who are saying that 30h is inhumane and unsafe for patients, keep in mind that its not uncommon for a single surgery to be 8-15 hours long if not longer. For all the people who get injured and need emergent surgery, how would a hospital be staffed if the surgeons only performed one long surgery per day each? Medical school is beyond gruelling and prepares people for this lifestyle so trust your doctors.
Good points!
But in Nigeria the pay don't match the work. He's doing the job because he's well paid and catered for by his government.
Tosan Esoko catered by the government how?
Your point being a tired surgeon is better than no surgeon at all in case of emergency. That is obviously right but somewhat trivial. The underlying problem is that for decades there have been too few doctors in the staff, and the underlying problem for that are tow things:
First, hospitals trying to make maximum money so they do what they can to use minimum medical personell for maximum care (which implies a self abuse of the personell because they always have to work at the limit or above).
2nd issue: too few people getting access to med school in the first place. There are enough young people wanting to go to med school but they cant because of money and/orbad grades (which is relative, since if all students get better the necessary gpa would also get higher). So the solution isnt saying "better a tired surgeon than no surgeon", the solution is to create more doctors...
That demands changes in policies. More requirements for hospitals, more limitations of work hours, and more college places in med schools, also those which are affordable.
@@davethedm In Nigeria, most doctors work in poorly equipped government hospitals were pay is very poor, private hospitals are normally owned by individuals or run by non governmental agencies..
maybe he thinks it's the same everywhere..
You're so inspiring to me.I've been an RN for over 30 years and my niece who is 24 years old just passed her medical boards.She will start her residency soon and l am so proud of her.😇😇
Do you know how much an RN can make with years of experience, like 10+ years of experience?
Fred Rick depends what you do. But salary progression of an Rn that works the same job for 10 years is very poor
Amazing! Congrats to your neice!
Residency at 24, that’s quite the achievement.
I'm hella late but congrats to you both
God bless you, finding the strength and energy to be at a hospital for 30hrs takes enormous effort. Stay healthy
Larry V try the oil field on back to back 16 hour shifts, 1 hour worth of breaks lol
That is just physical labor, which the body can adapt to. Hospital staff are constantly moving, it's both physical and heavily mental.
Uh, physical labor is constantly moving, and people can also get use to mental things lol you can get use to anything , people in Africa on 95+ degreee Days get use to it, and war veterans get use to getting shot at after a while lol , you have a bad point on the mental/physical , the human body is made to adapt to things
I disagree, if you don't believe that there distinction in skill involved between that of a soldier and a surgeon then arguing with you is pointless. Think skillful versus unskillful work.
I agree , different work but it’s both mental , as a surgeon you can kill someone if you don’t do something right. As a frontlinemen if you do something wrong, you can get your friend killed, it’s very similar, because of ones mistakes you can kill others in both fields
I don't understand why medical profession is suspected to this stupidity. In Finland, the maximum length of a shift is 24 hours and the next day is mandatory rest. I think that even 24 hour shifts are stupid. They predispose doctors to poor decision making on the cost of their patients health.
Sokrates Agreed
Thats why you always ask who is on your medical staff and how far along there shift they are. You can always request a different doctor in cases like this.
Part of it I think has to do with cutting costs (wages in this case) and I think the other part is this cloud of ego covering the medical community.
I agree doctors need their sleep to perform their best
I don't think it is about cuttings costs. Doctors are generally paid by hour.
I work 24 hour shifts myself. It’s horrifying you’re required to perform surgery with no sleep for 24-30 hours. This seems like it’d be a huge liability.
R Charbs definitely unethical. I wonder how many causalities happen because for fatigue
Ali Muhammad very little most likely. If you can’t keep yourself awake for 24 hours then you have no business doing what this guy does.
@@Steve8624 keeping yourself awake isn't the issue. When u approach 20+ hours of no sleep it starts affecting you. No matter who you are.
@@TriggeredWorkz I don't think so. I have done 36 and 48 shifts. Usually the maximum we are asked to do are 24 hr shifts(unless it's in Ob/Gyn or Emergency med) but sometimes you need to cover for others.
You can catch some sleep at night for 3 or so hrs easily as you will never be the only guy on call.
But yeah. 24 hr shifts are ok but 36 or 48 hrs are bad.
@@iamdanyboy1 interesting. I work for the railroad and FRA regulations state that we cannot exceed 12 hour shifts. Because we get fatigued and were not allowed to operate heavy machinery if we seem fatigued or tired and after 12 hours we are required to be off for 12 hours before we come back in and we cannot work more than 7 days in a row. You would figure drs and medics would be more strict since peoples lives are on the line, but what do i know 😂
Respect man. 30 hours is insane.
Yes, it can be brutal at times. Thanks for watching!
Literally the epitome of “ you can sleep when your dead”.
You’re not your.
One of my favorite videos from you Dr. Webb. The fact that you still looked alert and kept your composure after 30 hours of stressful work yet still had the motivation to study and go to the gym after sleeping really speaks to the grit it takes to be in medicine. Great work - makes me more motivated to continue studying for my MCAT haha
Michael Bridgeraj hope you ace the MCAT
Michael Bridgeraj when do you take the MCAT?
Not everyone is like that. I work on the floor. After a 12 hour night shift, I go home and sleep all day while some of my coworkers go to the gym after a shift.
How did it went?
Dang no wonder drs have so much money ... You never have time to spend it .. Lol
actually, you will be surprised how much money you have to spend just to practice medicine , hence the saying that doctors don't get paid enough for the hours and work they put in
@@saloni557 oh I bet ... There insurance and other necessary things ...I can't even imagine
This is also residency
@@joshb2686 y'all don't even get paid for that do ya
Angie Weston I’m just starting med school, but pretty much no. You work 70 plus hours a week and earn around 50k a year.
Hospitals should invest into the call rooms.. Make them more comfortable & nice looking.
Agreed!
Hospital space is at a premium, especially at a tertiary care center. Call rooms don't make money, hospital and procedure rooms do, what do you think their priority is?
Some hospitals have them
Well, we have one with four beds, one of which is rumored to be infested with bedbugs... And no one knows which it is! Soooooo, we generally play a game of 'risk' every on-call night. Either risk being eaten alive and get some shuteye, or don't sleep at all! 😅😂
Doctors are barely in on call rooms, and when they are they’re just sleeping
What's the hospital budget on Coffee? Like 10-20... million?
Necessary expense given they make their residents work 30 hours shifts, which I think is ridiculous. No one should be expected to function optimally (especially perform orthopedic surgery) after being awake for so long! I thought vetmed was bad, no where near as bad as these human residents/ interns have it!
Lucisus Palmer and you are miss resident?😂
@@NathalieNajibi no, stop assuming. I've been through clinicals and worked with PGY 1-4 and talked to them about their experiences, I never heard one who said they didn't have a place to sleep while on call.
Lucisus Palmer Not every hospital is a magical castle. I’ve worked in different ones where the only thing you can do is go to a corner and cover your face to take a nap
@@NathalieNajibi apparently you've worked in some shitty hospitals. Hospitals that don't invest in employee health & wellness are cancerous and should be avoided.
It's fantastic to see a young Black Man so intelligent and committed. GOD BLESS YOU.
Leland Paul you should discover this continent called Africa. They have millions of highly trained Drs just like him lol
H well africa is poor lol
@@vice_santos Africa is a continent lol; you're telling me 54 countries are poor?
@@cbiz384 It has not always been common in the US. That’s all he means. He’s not implying that black people aren’t capable of becoming doctors.
What struck me was that even after 19 hours working non stop, he has the strength to give a room tour. So much respect for this doctor and those who dedicate their life to help others 👏
I have so much respect for you, you’re taking the career path I dream about. I was in the military for 6 years now I’m finishing my pre med stuff here in Houston. I really appreciate the videos, very insightful for me. Thanks Doctor!
WOOO Houston!!!
Delores Emeagi lol
27
Thanks, you too! What middle school would be your top choice?
Lol yeah sorry I meant med*. University of Houston will have a med school soon! So hopefully there if not Baylor would be a close 2nd.
You are amazing! We are so lucky to have dedicated doctors like you. Thanks for what you do.
Thank you! I appreciate it
Dang your hospital is nice with that piano key lights wall, faaaancy
This....This... is it chief.
Thank you! I appreciate it!
30 hours ain't itn chief
I will be entering orthopedics, specifically regenerative medicine, but I have a huge respect for trauma surgeons. I love learning from them as they are really on the front line
You're absolutely incredible man.
Thank you! Please let me know other suggestions to improve the channel or specific video topics you would like to see
I definitely will brother! Had to subscribe to show support...keep doing your thing man your incredible work is not going unnoticed.
12:15 this man has been working all night and gets a little bit of time to sleep and he's giving up that time so we can hear what he's up to !!!!!! Dr. Webb you're too good to us. Thank you so much!
Great job..I've had 24 hour shifts with no sleep but doing surgery at the same time is just so much more!💪👌👌👌
Yes, it can be overwhelming at times!
You are so truly undervalued. As a nurse, we have a love hate relationship with doctors. In the end, we nurses value doctors so much. Stay strong and safe
Every time I watch videos on medical professionals, I’m just in absolute awe of how incredibly driven you are. Your work is very appreciated!
Thank you, I appreciate it!
Thank you for your hard work and dedication. I can tell you really like what you do. Many blessings to you!
Thank you Carrie!
Dr. Webb, allowing us to follow along during these 30 hours is invaluable! Thanks
You are very welcome! Thanks for watching! Please share so we can continue to grow and I can put out more videos like this! Also, don't forget to subscribe as I will be posting new videos every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 5pm CST!

Woah 30 hours, god bless you for the work your doing!
Thank you!
What do you use to stay awake? At hour 24 my brain would shut down and my eyes would burn extremely. My eyes would shut on their own.
@@RafaelHernandez-zz2jm you get used to it Eventually. Like working night shifts. Youe body adApts. This is just more extreme
i could never ever ever do what you do and i don't know how anyone could but I'm so thankful for people like you who do this and save lives everyday. you have to have the biggest heart to go into a profession like this. thank you
Thank you, that means alot! Thanks for watching!
I’ve always been super interested in healthcare and in the past few years I’ve taken a HUGE liking to Trauma surgery. Absolute Dream
Right when I saw those light things in the hallway, I automatically knew what hospital it was! I used to do my clinical rotations as a high school student in that same hospital!
Thats awesome! Small world!
Amazing! May God give you more strength everyday!
Thank you, I appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
I can’t imagine the discipline you have and the knowledge you obtain. It blows my mind! Thank god for people like you. Loved your video!
Thank you! I appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
Webb MD
I saw you all the time last yr while on MS3 trauma rotation. I didn’t know you had a channel, but I saw you in my suggestion box and recognized you. Surgeons get mad respect from me for being able to sustain this pace for yrs and yrs. 2 months of 24hr shifts was enough for me. I remember being in the OR and a nurse complained abt adjusting to the 12 hr shifts, at which point I said “well I’m on q4 24’s with 12’s between”. Then the resident tops us all saying “I’m on q3 30’s with 12-16 for my short day”. Nobody topped that.
Surgery takes hours at a time so a 30 hour shift makes a lot of sense. If there are multiple patients coming in with traumas and they need surgery depending on the case that could take anywhere from 5-15 hours. If their shifts were only 12 hours than they wouldnt have time to do anything.
Amazing content! It makes me feel motivated to keep working hard to get to where you are righ now.
Carlos Villagrasa keep it up
Goodluck!!!
Thanks, I appreciate it!
Dr. Webb
You can make it man
As chief resident, what role do the attending physicians play in your day? It seems like you are running these cases on your own aside from the morning meeting. In what instances would you turn to an attending for something (whether it be help or whatever else)?
Bump
Cody Fowler ^
He won't reply unless you pay him.
Or maybe he's busy you know being a doctor..
I work in a hospital but I may be wrong as most are different. I think the Attending handles people on medical and recovery units.
Like if you get admitted for lets say for a really bad stomach virus where you can't function without a host of medication and bed ridden for a week, you would be placed on a medical floor where nurses, cna's, interns, residents and attendings all have a role in tending to you. Where I work, surgery is almost separate. Like they are their own team who consult with your main caring doctors to carry out their surgery and then the attending takes over.
I really want to be a surgeon. I love having the ability to help people. I’m so thankful for surgeons. My mom had breast cancer and the surgeons saved her life. My dad almost died from blood clots in his lungs but doctors helped him. I aspire to be able to save lives like the doctors did for me and my family.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Very special people, unbelievable work ethic!! We’re lucky to have these special people 👍🇦🇺
Yes!!!!! A modern Richard Webber for sure!!! Such a pro!!!♡
I love how the medical is all about teaching. Its crazy to watch someone doing stuff for the first time. And the patient is gonna be left in the dark. For good reason.
You’re a different breed of human my friend🤙 I appreciate your work. And dedication and passion for what you do.
Thanks, I appreciate it!
Sir, you're an iron man. As I lie here in Austin rehab fairly immobilized by the mess I've made of my left distal tibia and fibula, I'm particularly grateful to you orthos, out saving limbs via better engineering.!
(ps, thanks, Dr Villarreal!)
Your voice is so soothing thanks.
Thanks!
wow that schedule is brutal.. thanks for this video I have a ton of respect for you and the medical profession
Thank you, I appreciate it!
I'm so envious of man I'm in the path to be a nurse prac wished I hadn't played around in college and I could've been in med school rn
Everything happens for a reason! Keep up the good work and thanks for watching!
I have a great respect for what you do Dr. Webb. I really enjoy your videos, I am currently recovering from a posterior spinal fusion from T1-L3 that corrected my scheuermann's kyphosis. After seeing how much hard work and time you put into bettering your skills it makes me appreciate all the hard work and training physicians go through to better our lives. Thank you for all you do!
Ay respect touts doctor's my friend not hits 😞😣
Wow! I have no words you're amazing. Prayers for you and all the trauma doctors. Thank you for all you do!
Thank you!
You have a seriousness about you that breeds confidence.
This isn't anything at all like scrubs taught me...
ha, i know right
Antonio J. Webb, M.D. Do you think I should carry on my family legacy and be a doctor like you? My grandpa was an anesthesiologist and his brother and father were doctors too. I think I should because I am pissed that my mom had an aneurysm and was paralyzed for 8 years until she died no one deserves that at all.
Papa John do it if it's your passion. If you do it for the sake of the legacy, you likely won't enjoy that huge of a commitment. If you want to save people like your mother, and prevent aneurysms, neurosurgery would be what I'd look into as a medical career.
Kai Kahlin omg scrubs ❤️❤️❤️ you gave me flashbacks
Kai Kahlin isn't this exactly what scrubs said?
This is real life Grey’s Anatomy. I’m intrigued. I obviously chose the wrong profession 😂.
NoirSimmer haha
NoirSimmer not even close to greys anatomy, lazy dreamer
bill clinton I guess someone skipped English class and doesn’t know different literary tools that enhance our language. In other words, or in layman’s (whichever you prefer), my original statement wasn’t meant to be taken seriously. It’s okay to laugh from time to time. Lazy dreamer? Lazy dreams don’t land you on the Forbes 30 Under 30 list at the age of 23 😉. Good day to you.
NoirSimmer r/iamverysmart
Nahh greys anatomy is super unreal, especially with their on call rooms xd
I work at trauma clinic,and we have 27 hour shifts,me personally 8-9 times a month.You gotta love the job,thats it.
Thanks for sharing!
How are the wages ? I m second year undergraduate student , considering working in US ,
Wow...I always wonder how people cope with so little sleep...in addition the the sleep deprivation, your brain has to always be on top of the game. Absolutely admirable. Respect.
Thank you! I appreciate it!
I have to say I can’t imagine working in the states as a doctor. In the UK we have periods of mandatory rest post on calls and they make such a difference to you mood and ultimately your decision making as a physician . You’re doing great work
Is nobody gonna mention how amazing the coffee selection at 5:00 was?!
What some don't realize, this doctor isn't performing hands on procedures himself the entire 30hr. shift. A lot of it is a mix of hands on, and him acting as counsel to the other resident doctors and interns on staff. He does also get small pockets of sleep throughout the shift.
True.they do sleep in between tasks
And I thought I was special pulling doubles
ha
Ahaha damn
You are a hero. Society is thankful for you.
Yay! I knew I saw your background familiar in places you were recording... San Antonio baby! 🙂 I’m glad we have people like you who are passionate, in caring for patients. God bless you
So fucking cool man. I wish I made better choices when I was younger. Stoked for you!
who else tried to close out the ad in the beginning, than realized it was part of the video? LOLLL
Me
I recognized it and fast forward it
Time to follow your steps, future cardiovascular surgeon. Keep me motivated 💪
The kind of knowledge this man and all other doctors have is insane.
Appreciate that!
I don't care how old this video is you never cease to amaze me
Is fatigue an issue on these long shifts or are cases so exciting in ortho that the adrenaline keeps you from being tired?
Adnan A maybe the need to want to help people keeps you up longer and your mind is foucs on other things rather than having much of the attention on yourself.
fatigue is a huge issue, its the main cause of deaths in hospital tbh. its when nurses get lazy and dont steralize properly or doctors fuck something up. the overworking of doctors is the dumbest thing the west does
laziness does not equal fatigue or long hours. you can be lazy when you come up in the morning.
mohammed helmi fatigue equals laziness.
Pretty sure they have hourly breaks in there were they take naps or something.
This is very intriguing and informational... I can’t wait to start my career of being a orthopedic surgeon 👩⚕️.
Awesome!! You got this! Just never give up!
Antonio J. Webb, M.D. are you an attending? Because usually an attending have customized caps
Thank you for your dedication
Thank you for the support!
This video, this video was downloaded on my phone back in 2018 when I was out in the desert in Turkey for a whole month visiting family. I was just 17 and about to fly out ot the US after a month to be an exchange student and taking a gap year from school in Sweden. I had zero clue of what I wanted to do and I spent so much time pondering about my future during that month. But I had this vlog on my phone and watched it probably a hundred times. Something went off inside of me and I felt like I had a calling. For the remaining three years of school I studied harder than I've ever done and took so many leaps of faith just to try have a chance at medical school. There's just something about having a dream and finding comfort in that little corner of your mind that has something to look forward to and that gives you meaning. Now i'm 23 and finished second year of medical school and on the journey. Living that dream. I always had my mind on orthopedic surgery and hopefully I will match in to that residency in a few years.
Awesome!!!!!!! Thanks for sharing🙌🏾🙌🏾
lets appreciate the future doctors who are in high school like me and many others and appreciate the nurses janitors and doctors who work in the ER and OR.
Wow! Awesome video. This was so informative!
Thanks, I appreciate it!
RNByTheBay #
RNBytheBay what hospital you work at? I have a headache and need to be checked out
Binge watching your vids!!!! So proud of you! Black doctors unite 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
To everyone reading this I’m asking for your prayers ! Prayers that I pass my current and next math class ! Prayers that I pass The Teas Test on my first exam and prayers that I get in the RN program this August 2019 ! Thank you 🙏 I’m praying for everyone also !!!... Dr. Webb God bless you !!
Your videos are so inspiring and motivating. I'm an ICU nurse preparing to apply for an advanced degree. Seeing your work is exciting!
God bless you doctor Webb.. I greatly appreciate the work you are doing for humanity.
Its interesting to see peoples thoughts on 'long shifts' in the medical world change, including mine, after that Joe Rogan interview with that sleep guy
Thank you!
do you know which podcast it was?
Joe Rogan experience episode 1109 with matthew walker. one of the best podcast episodes I´ve ever listened to in my life for real.
Jonas .Sørensen I'll check it out
I'm going to have DTs when Dr. Webb can't make videos as frequently. This is just awesome.
I'm stuck as an undergraduate. I wanted to become a doctor, but more specifically a surgeon (not sure what specialty). Like a lot of people, I'd assume, I want to get into medicine to help people, like joining Médecins Sans Frontières etc, so that I can help people in other nations who die because they will never have access to the simple operations they need. I'm currently a physics undergrad, and I'm in this field just for learning sake, and sometimes I lose all motivation to study. Sometimes I want to drop out and do what I was going to do right after high school, and that was enlisting in the Navy as a hospital corpsmen. I was actually supposed to ship out September of 2017, but decided to give school a try since it was paid for with grants and stuff, so I started as an engineering student. I didn't enjoy that.
I find myself liking maths too.... man sorry for the incoherent paragraph. I'm thinking about so much and it's stressful at times.
Nathan Nguyen dang dude I’m only 18 but you sound smart. All my luck and hope goes out to you brother.
Congratulations on Chief Resident and for getting ortho. Both excellent achievements.
I watch these just to make sure the people eat. You guys are the front line and I owe the most upmost respect to. I'm a manager that works 12 hours a day but don't go through anything like this. Thank you.
what was the vehicle that keep saying “cation automatic vehicle approaching”?
That university hospital is amazing
You are one of the best and relatable doctors ever✊🏿
I really enjoy watching Dr. Antonio Webb and I wish that he was an Orthopedic Surgeon at Augusta University Health in Augusta ,Ga. Dr. Webb does such an excellent job. He earns every pay check and more. Dr. Webb ,continue to keep up the good work and I pray that God blesses you and your family. Have a very Blessed Day.
Thank you Lucille!
@@antoniowebbmd You're welcome Dr. Webb. Continue to keep up the good work!!!
During my time as Chief pediatric resident with 30 hour shifts every 3 days my life was more administrative with alot of Mcgyver and teaching roles since I have two 3rd year residents, five 2nd years and four 1st years and two pre resident trainees. Thank God I survived!
Thanks for sharing and making it through!
I only know of the Chief Resident position by watching Greys Anatomy...
...I'm not ashamed.
SAME IM OBSESSED WITH THAT SHOW
Take a shot every time he says “essentially”
Nick The Man Because he’s trying to simplify complex terms laymen may not understand. Essentially, to make it easier for viewers to understand.
Abdullahi Amir I’m a nurse so I can understand lol
Abdullahi Amir r/iamverysmart
I essentially understand what he is essentially trying to do
Abdullahi Amir relax Allahu Akbar, he was just making a joke
Great video doc! Really interesting to see the doctors perspective, really really cool video!
Thank you!
The work you do and other people in your line of work is gladly appreciated 🙏🏾
So much respect for you and the crazy hard work you do!
Thank you!
30 hours straight for the “last couple of dayssss” i know that check look lovely😩
Such sleep deprivation is dangerous- reckless really,-and the fault of the employer. Driving sleep-deprived is arguably worse than DUI. So why do we accept medical treatment by doctors that haven’t slept in over 30 hours? Unacceptable. They shouldn’t be permitted to work over 16 hours or so per day.
champy1210 I am sure they are able to take a few naps to catch up on sleep during the night if they don't have calls and patients to be seen.
champy1210 These doctors have been trained to know if they are being pushed to far. If they feel they are a danger to their patients they will solve that problem. If people were worried about their doctors judgment they would never see doctors and our population would decrease
I agree, I recently started watching violin MD, she’s a third year resident and even when they get to go to sleep they can get woken up at any time.
LadyHmong he even says in the video that he has a lot of shifts where he works 30 hours straight. So no naps.
Ainsley Pyle that’s so naive lmao
I don't understand why you're being made/allowed to work 30 hour shifts as a surgeon, that is *extremely* dangerous. I can't even think properly after a 12 hour shift, never mind 30 hours. So much research has been done on this. I'm still baffled as to how they expect you to do your best while working a 30 hour shift. 24 hours should be the limit with mandatory rest the next day.
Glad people like you exist! Amazing stuff
Thank you for your service. Love to see how much you enjoy this much needed job
Thank you!
