Omg I follow Rachel as well, also KianMDVlog, I am currently going to school to become a Clinical Laboratory Scientist but I REALLY want to be a ER Physician and all of you ladies inspire me to pursue my dreams in helping others and I think I might go for it😊
Incoming med student, non-trad & really wanting a large family. Im so conflicted because Im not sure when the “best” time is in training & Im actively aware Im aging with each day that passes. Your video really helped calm my nerves and hesitancy going in to medicine. Ive been following you for years & always enjoy your content :) thank you Dr. Le!
I really appreciate this video because my life is thinking about wedding and children. Your video shows that you can have a nice marriage with someone non health professionnal. Thank you ❤️
I needed this a lot right now. My husband just started M3 year and he is super busy so far. I have been dying to start our family and have children, but he feels that its just not possible with his schedule, which means it wont be for at least another 5 years (he wants to do family medicine as well). I am older than he is and I am really scared that by the time he feels like he has time, that I wont be able to have children. Obviously I understand his worries as well and so we just have to work together to find the right time for both of us. It is very clear that you are a hard working professional AND a super mom, so it gives me hope that it can be done!
I heard 4th year is a good time to have children. 4 years can be hard on the fertility window. I think if you talk about how willing you are to be the primary caretaker in the next 4 years of his training he might see the benefit of starting earlier.
Thank you for this. I don’t know if you’re a Christian or not, but I’ve been very stressed about this topic lately (mainly because I see so many Christian women online tell young women that it is wrong for us to have a career at all. Or any specialty outside of our home and children). I know that Christ loves me and I love him 💯, but I don’t think he would have bestowed a gift upon me that increases my understanding of biology and science if he didn’t want me to utilize that gift. I just think it’s wrong that so many Christians are telling women this. I absolutely agree with your style of balance though! I do think your home and children should come first most definitely. When I become a doctor, I will work part time as well. I don’t think it’s wrong to pursue what you’ve always wanted to be since you were little. I was running around pretending to be a doctor at 3! Thank you for your channel, you have encouraged me you just don’t know how much ! God bless you ❤️
Amazing video. I am a medical oncologist , wife and mom ( my son is 5 yo now) and I try to balance my physician live with my housewife life and it is really hard! You really inspire me and make me feel, that I am not alone! Thank you! 🙏🏻🤗
There’s lots of things we compromise on - like how the house always looks like a tornado just passed through 😅 but we all feel heard and seen. And that’s what matters
I so needed to hear this whole video!!! I have two boys and I'm thinking of going to pursue medical er Physician but I thought it was impossible to do until I seen this, Thank you for the time you put into your videos🤗
Thank you so much, I was starting to overthink and this video gave me a sense of peace. I’m a junior in high school ( in august a senior) and I want to be a cardiothoracic surgeon. I know that going into the medical field especially in such a demanding specialty it can be hard to balance work and life. Seeing you able to enjoy your life and work made me realize this is truly possible 😊❤
Recently licences doctor, soon getting into the army. Part of why I wanted into the army was the travelling and variety bit. Not interested at all in starting a family, but I have so many burning passions I want to keep a part of my life and develop now that im no longer in school. Im happy to hear that my project is not only doable but has already been done by others❤
Thank you for sharing these videos. I love that you seem to have a great family life and also be a physician. Did you make a video about how you choose your family Medicine residency program? I am trying to figure out which programs to apply to and then how to evaluate them. If you have any tips, I think medical students would be interested. Thank you again ❤️
This is my really old video I made talking about choosing FM ruclips.net/video/YEDTm0hkAds/видео.html It comes down to the people (residents & staff) that were most important to me. Do the residents get along? Is there commodore or are they all gunners? Is the program willing to provide training in things I'm interested in (in office procedure, GYN, OB, Derm, etc). I should make an updated video soon.
Soo good! I am absolutely loving it. And this video was just what I needed before my second week starts ❤️just a little reminder that your career is what you make it into !
@@drjennale When I look at you, I feel like I am seeing myself... I am also a mom of two (3 years old son, and 1 year old daughter), and applying for Family Medicine Residency Programs this September.. You are so easy to relate and connect. I appreciate how you motivate people especially like me. Thank you again!
I really needed this I am applying for OB/Gyn residency and I have a 1 year old and of-course everybody against it and trying to stop me from going for Ob/Gyn as it will miss up my family
Do not listen to them! I am sure the people who are discouraging haven’t tried to grow a family themselves. I know some bad ass surgeon moms who have grown their families and beast fed while in residency.
@@drjennale Thank you Jenny for replying to me, it’s pretty rough to have all this inside. I’m so stressed my face is filled with acne nowadays because of the match my infant and the pressure of overthinking about how will I be a good mom in that kind of residency lifestyle. I’m reconsidering everyday so perplexed between my family and my passion. I hope my son doesn’t hate me for leaving him in daycare for long hours. I know this would happen in any type of residency but OB/gyn they say the worst so you can feel my pain😞
I'm still in undergrad, trying to decide if med school is a good choice for me. I'm 27 and have two kids already, and want to be present in their lives. I'm worried that starting so late will put us in a terrible financial position right before my kids would be starting college. I would want part time hours like you have. How much of a pay sacrifice do you make?
Do you need to continue studying as a doctor to keep up with the latest treatment modalities and medication in your field of practice? If so, how many hours per week/month do you need to study.
Why did this video make me emotional as heck. 🥺
Miss you! Hope surgery rotation is going well

That’s amazing! Congrats on medical school. So many people grow families during medical training - you can do it 💪🏽

Takes lots of work and communication. But 100% possible
Always been impressed with how Stan stepped up by being primary care taker to Wyatt early on. He is a good dad.
He’s a natural

Many many more men grow their families in residency. Definitely conversation you would need to have. Wishing you all the best!

You got this 💪🏽 ER is great for family life because you have shift work! Our ER docs work anywhere from 10-14 days a month!
You are my role model ❤️ I'll forever be grateful for your guidance & kindness 🙇🏻♀️

Yes. I hope all is well with you too ☺️...

I can relate to the video and your advice is so real

Our kids are so close in age!! And yay! We need more FM docs. Excited for you to join the team 💪🏽👩🏻⚕️
Great vid!
Awwwww, love this, y'all are so cute! :D
Thank you! I tell my kids they better take full advantage of that cuteness because it doesn’t last forever 😂
I didn't know a doctor could do part time
Thank you
you are such an amazing person!! (P.S is this mandala scrubs that you're wearing?)
Yes!! Love them

50% if not more 🥴 I talk about how much I make and spend in this video ruclips.net/video/PuCQKVZshcE/видео.html
Great, did you have work life balance during residency or not? Is medicine worth it for who wants work life balance? Thanks!!
Do you need to continue studying as a doctor to keep up with the latest treatment modalities and medication in your field of practice? If so, how many hours per week/month do you need to study.
😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️
Great video.
Thanks 🥰
Your hair has gotten so long!!
It has!! No idea how 😅
thank you
