How I Got Into Residency | My Medical Journey | Doctor Mike

- Hi guys! First of all, I want to apologize for my congestion and nasally voice in this video. I was battling a mean cold and didn't want to miss this weeks video.
I read your comments on the "How I got into Med School" video, and you all seemed to want to hear about the residency and social media journey as well. So here we go. In this weeks video, I wanted to have an intimate conversation about my path of getting into residency, my experiences in residency, as well as how my social media route began.Being a doctor and the residency match are both complex topics. This is a much longer video than usual, and I was debating if I should split it into two parts, but the stories seemed too intertwined to separate.
I will make shorter videos in the future about social media and residency success. I really just wanted to share with you my family medicine residency journey as I hope it may inspire you or at the very least entertain you. If you enjoy this video, please give it a like, and if you want more intimate conversation style videos like this one, please let me know in the comments below! Stay happy and healthy!

i had a certain idea about you, i really thought you were just another pretty face who used the social media fame to get attention and the doctor part came second, but after seeing this video i have some newfound admiration for you and what you do. I hope you continue to use your outlet to inform people and thanks for being an honest and kind person/doctor:)
p.s. subscribed>>>
Thank you for giving me a chance to show you what I’m really about!
@@DoctorMike You probably won't see this, but I live in Australia and I really love medicine, and I was wondering if you could maybe do a video comparing how different countries practise medicine differently to one and each other.
Thanks for your RUclips channel, really funny and educational.
puga chan very hard to sub if you can’t get to you cheap if you don’t have to sherch it up
Same watching this open my mind. It's rare to find someone on media that are honest to themselves and their following. You gained my respect like and share people.
I found him on a whim and im currently going through EVERY video. I still have a long way to go.😂
I started following you on Instagram because my friends kept talking about the cute doctor. I stay because I actually learn something. (Plus your dogs are adorable!) Keep up the awesome work.Thanks for the positivity also. It's nice to listen to a doctor who doesn't complain about the system and why it stinks to be a doctor. You genuily seem to love what you do.
You should make a video on your study habits and kinda walk through what you studied and how you did it and your keys to success when it comes to taking tests and things like that. :)
Yess please do it
Please do itttt
Agree! DO IT PLEASE
NEEDED🕰
I would really love to see that!
I’m only an 11th grade student but I really went so deep into medical school and residency and it makes me so excited for the future.. even though I should not overthink the future but i can’t find myself doing something else than medicine :)
Your attitude and energy is exactly what the world needs. It makes me feel so good to know there’s doctors like you out there ❤️
This is insanely inspirational and just so real... also makes it all sound so easy yet it must be so hard to find that balance in your life. We don't really hear a lot about your past or personal life often, but when we do its usually with a purpose and some good reason, also remind us that you are an actual human with another life away from yt which people tend to forget when we are just looking at another face on a screen. Thank you so much for everything you do and all the best!!
You're such an inspiration! You can be proud of what you have achieved so far 👏🏻 if everybody on this earth was like you we would live in a better world . I wish you the best for what's coming for you :)
That was great. It made me respect you even more.
PS: still waiting for the"skin" & "sleep" special videos from night time routine one.
Wow, it's a truly great and motivational video. I totally love your positive, humble, authentic and hardworking personalities, which are the most precious and important traits. I'm extremely interested in watching this kind of video which reveals how you experience this incredible journey. I hope you will do more intimate and genuine style videos in the future. Love U
All I can say is that you’re a very caring, respectful, and responsible doctor. You inspire me when it comes to learning about these things, it helps me learn more about diseases and my own health. I’ve became more educated because of you, you inspire me to learn more in school. Also, for those thinking that some people are too young or too old to learn these things are simply ridiculous and stupid. Anyone from all ranges in age can learn about health, it really doesn’t matter. I’m 12 years old and I’m learning about this, no one can stop me.
definitely going to apply to overlook medical center for residency now :) You must have had an amazing time there!
Love seeing these videos where you can see the genuine passion and commitment, and the fact you knew what you wanted and why you wanted it and were dedicated to your path and got into it for the right reasons. It gives hope during these strange times.
OMG when you said "XANGA" I lost it. So many memories using XANGA as a teen. I appreciate how relatable you make your content by using what is popular at the time to relay your message.
Your development is interesting! And I like that you want the people to not literally dumb themselves on Social Media and help them educate themselves on here. I would really love you to talk also sometimes about biochemistry
I really appreciate your honesty, attitude and solid advice which is applicable to several other professions as well: take time to relax, be open to learn, be humble and ask questions. These are indeed applicable to many other jobs or training opportunities.
I really enjoyed watching you talk about your journey in this video and the last one. I think you did a great job at showing what you’re passionate about and what makes a good doctor. Would love to hear more!❤
What you do is of value bro, you and others give a more human, real, and informative view of medicine. This is not only informative and entertaining, but it is good advice. I appreciate what you do
What is your work schedule like and how to do you balance filming/ editing videos and a personal life?
Sounds like you want a video on the topic!
Doctor Mike yess!!! I was asking the same thing whilst watching this.
Bubbles_as18 I had that question in my mind
I wonder how he manage his schedule
I love your honesty and ethical stance. As a medical logistician for the military and hopeful doctor (still trying to get into med school), ethical principles and integrity mean a lot to me.
I am seeing this 3 years after it was made, but as usual, Mike hits it out of the ballpark! Too bad for me that he cannot be my DO.
Extra info: I grew up in Westfield, NJ so Overlook Hospital was the one we used if needed. My brother was born there, wait for it . . . 69 years ago. My Mom, Dad (and my brother ) had a great experience there.
Way to go Misha....You are one of the best humans I have ever heard of. My mom and your mom are were also the best... absolutely love your channel...
The "PEW HOOP" should be in every video
I think I’m in love... no not your face but you’re one helluvan epic human being. Or at least you have God level communication and presentation skills. Really motivated thanks 🙏🏻
Please don’t change what you’re doing. I actually trust in what you’re saying and your suggestions. You’re truthful, intelligent 🤓, funny 😆, ethnical, and it’s an added bonus that you’re handsome. Plus I loooovvve BEAR 🐻.
I loved this!!! Part 3!!
I love listening to him it’s so inspiring and i can see the effort he puts into his videos and to educate us, love from india 🇮🇳
Thanks for everything, really. I want to pursue medicine, and thanks to you many things are clear to me now and it's pretty awesome cause now I just can't wait to start this journey. Love ya!
Wow, SO inspirational! You have a very humble spirit
I hope you have a good day, thank you for all positive energy 🖤.
Could you please give us your studying routine from high School till residency.
Thanks for being an inspiration 🙏
Really i think the medschools and the medical administrative system in America seems to be pretty impressive than in my country, atleast there doctors are given more respect than here. Looking forward to work there in future 🤞🤞🤞
They wanted him to sell his soul for millions but he didn’t !!! What an angel.
This is so cool! I actually want to become a doctor too! I’m actually training myself to know some of the doctor tricks too! I already know how to do CPR and First Aid too!
Funny how he says all residents gonna be friendly because it's stressful.
Here, OBG is considered the most stressful subject, and the PGs there always keep fighting with each other, with nursing staff, with interns,
Because they're all very stressed and overworked, they just can't keep a calm mind.
Friends turn into enemies over there...
Because I have a younger sister who wants to go into the med field, just curious Dr.Mike how old were you when you knew what you wanted to do in the future? How did you deal with struggles on your path there?
Ashley Alvarez i suggest watching the first vid on how he got to med school that would help you
In college I did hestiate a bit as there wasn't enough exciement in knowing that every step ahead of you was pre planned. But after weighing the pros and cons I decided going for it all the way was the way for me!
I also hesitated to continue Electrical/Electronics Engineering because the job prospect seemed limited (that was how I saw it then). I worked in a utility company, electronics manufacturing company, and finally ended up being a network engineer, which I like doing because I am helping many people, although people don't see it. Without network engineers, banks won't have online banking or ATM. People would have to line up at the counter to withdraw money. They'd be no internet, youtube and this channel wouldn't exist.
After 10 years, things seem different. I have done different roles in my line of work but envy the dentist who installed a bridge on lower teeth, as she makes more den'gi doing what she likes. Then I realized, that this world is so unfair. A radio dj makes more den'gi than an engineer. An actor in ER or Gray's Anatomy series makes what a real surgeon would make in a year, in just one episode! Kim Kardashian gets paid more than maybe 100 teachers combined, in a month.
Your videos are so awesome!! I’ve been to the hospital about 7 times and I’m only 12
Dr. Mike = thorough
This doctor is really likeable and very nice personality😘

@@patriciapatricia352 Good luck 👍
"The last thing you wanna do is hurt a patient or hurt a patients' family member because you are too proud to confirm your knowledge " what a great quote ..
That's a very well known fact not really that revolutionary
Asma Saleh And humble
Jaime I love doctor Mike but he’s right. If you are too proud to verify your knowledge, you have no right to be working in the hospital. I’m sure any dr. that cares for their patients are aware of that.
@@michaelmeier8909 I don't think the person said it was revolutionary 🙄🙄 they said it was a "good quote"

Your a really good speaker, you can talk for 30 mins with out saying “um” or “err” 😂😂
Im pretty sure thats cause he does a lot of takes.Normally he'd have a lot more of those also more silly stuff and all hahaah
a really great tip
al-Haifawi great advice thanks
Right❤❤❤❤
9:02 still a great speaker but he does say uhh or umm occasionally. i think it adds a tasteful depth
I’m so happy to see, a person talking about medicine not bragging about being a doctor, but accurately doing his job, while being positive, probs to you, keep doing what your doing. xx
Do u see a difference in how female doctors and male doctors get treated at work?
You’re the man Doc! I’m not interested in medicine or being a doctor at all BUT your videos interest me and I am currently laying across my bed watching your vids! You rock!
Anyone who criticizes your adept and skilled use of social media to get the knowledge across that you want to help people is JEALOUS plain and simple. Using whatever resource we have to educate and uplift is the way to go. I applaud your efforts to be a positive influence in the world, especially as so many are more concerned with money over people's well being, and how much you obviously want to make a difference in people's lives. I call you dr cutie pie because you are beautiful both inside and out and an inspiration to the world. If you were only good looking on the outside I would call you dr hunky lol :-)
micky doll can you explain what you mean
micky doll what violations has he made?
What are the other ethics violations besides the alcohol promotion?
I see no ethics violations or alcohol promotions on his instagram profile. And I just looked at all of it.
Dante Velasquez
I'm sure he's a good dude and is a fine physician, but tbh the info he gives in his vids is not that great and At times is it misleading. The guy is simply taking advantage of his good looks to make money with RUclips vids and I don't blame him at all for that. There's no shame in using your talents/assets to get ahead, no issue with that. But there are sooo many med students and young physicians trying to make money like this and very few are actually putting really valuable content out there. Can't say this guy is one of them.
Honestly, this is the most positive and productive space on RUclips that I have come across. Kudos!
Rhydhi Gupta I completely agree!
I stan!!
I trained at Jamaica hospital as a respiratory therapist. Great hospital.
Ouu
Respiratory therapists are my heroes!!! I have chronic asthma and they are incredible I got close to passing out during some tests and they got me through it has been so brilliant
@@lauraodonoghue1348 awwwwwww. Thank you for your kind words. We are amazing at what we do. And I'm glad you're happy and healthy now
repent , Jesus christ is coming back . repent am let him into your heart , jesus loves you,:
@@tinajsews2835 Umm sir are u ok??
I really respect you for turning down 7-digit offer for the sake of keeping your integrity. It's not something many people with influence could resist.
I wouldn't turn it down. But I have no influence and a negative bank account ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@gbtv3740 lol me too
I have total respect for ANYONE not willing to compromise their morals when offered money, power, attention, or whatever.
I wish I could hear you speak Russian
The Arizkey: Are you German? Just asking because the flag on your profile picture. Didn’t saw lots of Germans here around.
S R Here is one 🙌🏻
S R l am from Germany! :) I reaaaallllyyyy enjoy his videos
Well he actually spoke Russian in a video. He was talking to his father in it. I’m Russian btw 🙂

“Listening to Percocet molly percoct” I died of laughter 😂😂 you’re so funny
I was asked "What would Einstein think of the internet?" So weird.
What did you answer ??
@@user-mj6qr2ky9d I think einstein would have a mixed feeling of being proud ashamed
Back in the day doctors were strictly restricted to their hospitals and their medical rooms. But with technology and social media revolution, every profession has to evolve. If people say that Dr Mike is not honouring medical profession then they are stuck in the old days. I really love the work he is doing and the knowledge he spreads. Very genuine ( SOmething that's very rare nowadays). Dr. MIKE is the next generation DOCTOR. Accept it or not but evolution in any form always wins.
Dr MIKE do you read the comments by yourself and like it or someone else does? because you seem to like every comment.
Why is he expected to treat anyone free of cost? What's the problem if he makes money by using social media? How is that violating any medical ethics? He's not revealing any information about his patients, he's not doing anything illegal. If anything, he's helping future applicants by giving them all this information about his personal journey.
micky doll - why do you expect doctors (and for other people, attorneys) to work pro bono? They are giving a service and deserve to be paid.
When you go to a car dealer do you expect the same, what about a restaurant? Wall street worker? Policemen? Senators? How about everyone work in service of others and no one takes a paycheck! 😑
I've never understood this phenomenal expectation for doctor/attorneys.
@@aangitano Well by his logic he should work for free then
Mike, love the part 2! I recommend making a vlog of a day in the life of a family medicine doctor.
I wish I found out about your channel earlier. I just got my license to practice nursing as a registered nurse and I had lots of doubts during my student days. Being a nurse was never my first choice. I always loved psychology and I aspired to be a clinical psychologist but money was the problem in my family so, I was lucky enough to be offered a scholarship to study Diploma in Nursing. There were so many things that you've said in this video that I related as a nurse because it is true no matter what profession you go into. It wasn't a walk in the park for me either. I used to dread clinical postings because I would have to work odd hours, I couldn't hang out with my friends much and I felt depressed about it. I was also always scared of asking questions but in my 3rd year of nursing school, I had so much of positivity in me and I loved learning more. Thank you for sharing your story. Love from Malaysia! ♥️
Dr. Mike - thank you for this genuine and honest video! After graduating from medical school I wasn't sure if I wanted to pursue residency and practice, but it's doctors like you who have inspired me to go all the way and embrace the fear, suffering and hard work that residency entails so that I have the ability to help and treat my patients in the future - that is what matters in the end! I started documenting my journey on Intermittent Fasting and mind management on my own channel and aspire to reach the number of people that you have reached. Would love to help you out in any way I can in the future and collaborate one day! Keep up the wonderful work and remember that the world needs YOU. Lots of love from Texas - God bless my brother!!!!
Wishing you best of luck for the future
@@francishill838 Good luck and God bless you too

As a soon-to-be med student, I really appreciate the authenticity Dr. Mike. Definitely keep these types of videos going.
Christian Caceres Nice
how is med school treating you?
Good luck
I’m so grateful to social media that it allowed us to see and know such genuine , authentic and inspiring people like you, I wish that you’ll reach more than your hopes and dreams, God bless you.
He is so passionate ❤️❤️❤️
100 th like
I know someone who started dating their future spouse their first year of medical school. They had one date night a week, sometimes those dates were dinner and hanging out on the couch side by side (the medical student studying of course). Got married between school and residency and so far are doing just fine.
Happy campers :)
you are such an inspiration to me, i started med school last year and seeing your stories really makes me exsited for my medical journey
how has it been so far?
@@robeltatek1414 i really wanna know too!
How has med school been?
Any updates?
I didn't understand anything but still watched 😧😅😅😅.
Nista Yonjan 😂😂😂😂
understand*
BROBROPRO GT thankyou ❤
Nista Yonjan me too hahaha 😂
If only all doctors can be like you. I have a chronic medical condition which places me in the er a lot. I was their yesterday and told by the md I was lying and med seeking and sent me home only 20 min after leaving having to go back in a ambulance. Thanks for being so nice
Oh those stupid questions during the interview... Hate them. But if you're a young woman, every moron would ask you whether you're planning to get married or have kids in the nearest future. This is the time when I realise I don't wanna work with such people.
Svitlana Zhyliaieva it’s actually illegal for them to ask those questions.

Thank you for telling your full story! I’m so glad you started instagram in med school :)
So am I haha =] Thanks for watching
So authentic! And with a big heart! God bless you!
One day you have to come to Ecuador and help my ppl🌻
22:37 The slight shade towards the Kardashians have me wheezing
I love his authenticity ☺️ handsome, humble, goofy, highly intelligent and much more! He has been talking for almost 30 minutes and I never got bored.
Wish there are more doctors like him. ❤️
Keep it up! You’re doing great Doctor Mike! 😁
A day in the life of Roxy was amazing but can we have a day in the life of Doctor Mike
(Edit) Congratulations on 300k Doc keep it up
DR: Sent me your number i need
Can you do hospital vlog?
Badr 2010 probably not. It would be hard to avoid HIPPA violations and still make it interesting
I found a channel that does vlogs. It’s called violin md and it’s actually pretty interesting!
I was born in Jamaica hospital!
Alex Arkadios I’m in my residency there lol
I'm moving to Queens from Massachusetts. How's Jamaica hospital? I have no idea how the medical system works over there. Hopefully I'll find a good hospital over there.
@@oop2270 I'm in Jamaica 🇯🇲
That's great one love

hey Mike, fellow physician here. I think you should've explained what it means to rank and to match at a residency. I don't think the average person knows what that is and how the match is binding.
all the best. you're doing great work
Hey Doc, better he should explain why DO is the option that future medical students have when their qualifications are no the best to competing for spots on regular MD programs , before heading to ROSS in the Caribbean
@@glo8778 This is not accurate
DR Mike what a man, the camera loves you and your information is very informative. Enjoy life your going to have an amazing time doing what you do, thanks for everything, cheers to you have yourself a great day.
I love your way of explaining things. It makes all of your videos very interesting to watch.

Ur so inspiring ,I want to be either a cardiothoracic surgeon or neurosurgeon
resi that’s what I want to do too :)
Damn, you guys are going for the hardest ones huh? lool
I'm fine with orthopedic surgery
ortho is probably just as hard if not harder to match into than neurosurgery or integrated cardiothoracic, best of luck!
im going for otolaryngology or rheumatology
I wanted to be a neurosurgeon, still do.
But somehow I'm in pharmacy 😂
Mike, this is so awesome! Couldn't be happier, buddy!😀👍
Thanks Maurice, hope you enjoy this concept!
You’re amazing! Continue to be yourself
He’s going to make it big one day. I hope he is able to stick to his values! Keep it up, Dr. Mike!
I think he's already on the track :)
Such a humble person! Great video I'm in med school too and I love your videos Doctor! xx
I really like your content ! It's educational ,funny,entartaining and serious( when it's needed) . .All in one .Keep up the good work. Greetings from Romania!
He is so humble. My dad is a RN and when he is charge nurse people bad mouth him and the stuff he says is very professional towards them and it makes me proud to be my dad's daughter. Dr. Mike reminds me of my dad. Very professional, loves his job, is very passionate about his work, and is always open to other treatments or other ways to help certain people. I know my dad is a registered nurse and Dr. Mike is a doctor but he reminds me of my dad.
Awesome video! Please talk about your television journey as well, would be interesting to hear
18:20 is so relatable! People have told me the same thing about social media = unprofessional... I love the versatility and vast reach of social media and will continue to post bc, like you, I do not know where it will lead me, but believe it will unlock potential for the medical world if we just open ourselves up to it :D
Doctor Disney ❤️
I love that you prioritize the need for education on social media!! Thank you for being a genuine doctor and being real. There's so much fake news and false information out there. It's nice to have someone who is genuinely concerned about the truth and science behind the topic! I know when I listen to what you have to say, I'm getting a genuine explanation from someone who knows what they're talking about. I also loved getting to hear about your medical journey! I've been a CNA, nurse tech, for a few years now, am currently in school to be a surg tech, and am even starting to look into becoming a DO/MD one day! I'm 24 and sometimes need reassurance that it's possible and I can do it. You inspire and encourage me. Thanks for being a real one, Dr. Mike, and congratulations on the well earned accomplishments!!
Your a really good speaker, you can talk for 30 mins with out saying “um” or “err” 😂😂
What are your views on abortion?
Really enjoyed watching this youtube video. I would also love to see you talk more about your life as a Doctor. I find it super fascinating on how you handle being an amazing doctor and manage to live a healthy positive lifestyle for yourself. Thank you for educating us with your awesome videos Doctor Mike! :)
A guy with this level of moral values 💯 a huge shout-out to the most amazing person dr Mike ❤
Mate youre just ahead of the game! In there is a desperate need for some kind of intermediate place of proper medical knowledge for people who dont need to go and bother a doctor who is very busy at a hospital, but could do with minor advice and i think these videos are PERFECT for giving general good quality knowledgeable life advice.
Nurse here, really respect what you do, great work ethic you got there and I must say it really inspired me more in preparation for my interview tonight! So pumped!!!
Thank you for your hard work. Medical staff are the real jems (along with others) in this pandemic
You are amazing!! I'm so glad people like you exist. Never change!!
Very honest video Doc. 👍👍Transparency builds trust..
I'm so in love with your channel! I'm new to it but been binge watching it all day and texting my husband random facts I learn from you! Keep up the aweeomeness!
I Know I’m late, but still want to say Mike you are amazing, thank you for being such a kind honest (and beautiful) person/doctor! ❤️
I think one of the common question in every field interviewer ask what is your strong and weak point. They mainly want to see how much confident you are. If you are little shaky you are finished. Nevertheless informative vedio😊😊😊
I was going to sleep but had to finish this when I got the notification😂 this style of video is so good and helpful, please do more :)
i really want to be a doctor but i am VERY stressed out and can get very anxious seeing things inside a human body. I love medical dramas but i cry through every episode that's how stressed i am and that's why i respect every doctor. you're doing an amazing job bouncing between your youtube audience, tv news and patients and i admire you for that. i'd love to learn about your time management and self-control skills that i seriously need in the future. have a nice day:)
Medical school de-sensitize you to these things tbh.
Who else is here in 2020 and thinks this year sucks
