ER sounds alright, you've just gotta keep the patient alive until the morning then hand them over to the relevant specialist ...and when in doubt, it's always gonna become internal medicine's problem 😂
FINALLY !!!!! ER DOCTOR HERE. I WAS ABOUT TO ASK YOU TO FEAUTURE ME ON YOUR VIDEOS, BUT WE ARE NOT IN THE SAME STATE AND ALSO I AM STILL POOR AND DONT HAVE NICE THINGS TO SHOW TO PEOPLE. JAJAJA STAY SAFE EVERYONE !
His house is beautiful. I love how normal he is and still able to enjoy his hobbies outside of medicine. I really enjoyed getting a peak inside his life.
he speaks so well and eloquently, and makes you listen very well to his insights. great video once again, man! really helpful as a (struggling) premed student 😅

@@lucascooper3613 - Sexualizing HIM. I thought about changing careers and becoming a nurse, I’d be happy to practice in his hospital. Though I don’t think he’d be interested in me.

He came back to the ER a week post discharge to find me. He was looking at everyone upside down...then recognized me. He came up to me and thanked me. We had a nice chat. In 30 years of practice, he was the only one to come back to find us. Yes, I did get several thank-you cards a month.

I love how he mentioned the loans suck but you have the ability to fully engage in medicine(or what you love). That’s a good perspective to have if you can’t afford to pay out of pocket which lost cannot. ❤️
Average US medical student graduates with $300,000 debt, and 30 yr loan....the invisible house, as I told my friends. Since most docs don't like math any more than the rest of the world, they underestimate the power of that debt. Fwiw, I'm a retired ER Doc with a master's in Statistics.
Night shift *is* a whole different experience in emergency medicine! I was a paramedic for 21yrs, and I spent more than half of that on 1900-0700, in addition to my student/field intern time (all nights). In my own experience, we had more patients on days (0700-1900), but the acuity was higher for sure on nights. And I second the CHF exacerbation for testing students, esp. if you throw in the hemodialysis twist 😉
I’m confused on why it makes sense for a second-year resident to be the only physician to handle someone’s care during a night shift. Can you tell me why? Am I correct that attending physician either sees every patient in the morning or has the resident present the case to them directly throughout the patient’s day? So that happens in the morning, presumably it’s needed, so why is it not needed at night? Or am I missing something?

Thank you so much for this! I’m in the MD application cycle right now and my goal is to go into emergency medicine, but everyone I mention it to cringes and asks why on earth I would want to do that (maybe it’s partly because I’m female). I find myself bending the truth when people ask me what I want to do as a result 😕 Regardless it’s so inspiring to see people actually enjoying what I want to do!
Throughout my long training I rotated through a lot of ERs, often in very large hospitals. I can tell you that being a female physician has advantages in dealing with many types of patients. However, keep an open mind. You have a long way to go and the process is a real adventure!
Thanks for sharing. This interview was so interesting and I think it would serve as a useful tool for high-school and university students to help them decide if this career choice is a good fit for them.
I see 400+ in green or 80+ patients in yellow zone of our emergency department / per shift. Dawgn dude, you guys so lucky to see 20 patient per shift. :/
I have spent my entire career working in the emergency dept, 13 years as a RN and the last 5 as an advanced nurse practitioner. Really interesting to consider the differences between the US and the UK. In the UK (at least in all the hospitals I have worked in) all same day radiology requests beyond plain film X-rays have to be discussed with and approved by a consultant (attending) radiologist, even requests from consultants and you have to argue your case well to get approval! Also how short the post Grad training is, in the uk minimum 8 years in training post (residency) after graduating med school to be a consultant. But I guess that is related to the hours worked in the US, scheduled hours would not exceed 45 hours / week here for any speciality although many doctors will choose to work extra “locum” shifts for additional and higher rates of pay.
The amount of hours they make some specialties work in the US is inhuman, it's insane. I'd definitely rather be in residency for 8 years working a normal work week than 3 years working 80 hours a week. I'm in Canada and like most things in work culture here, we seem to get a blend of US and European standards, I hear some people work ridiculous hours and others not.
@@lucascooper3613 for a consultant (attending) the annual basic starting salary is £85000 and can go up to £115000 with experience, so a lot less than in the US. However they are paid extra ( not a huge amount) for being oncall but can also make a substantial difference (up to an extra £75000)to their salary if they take on extra responsibilities e.g teaching med students/ junior doctors, conducting research, sub specialising (paeds/ sports medicine/ HEMS and prehospital care) and / or taking on management roles such as head of dept or clinical director.

the 'immerse yourself in medicine and not have to worry about any other concerns' is pretty far from the truth for a lot of people. Many people feel trapped in medicine very quickly after all the loans start to pile up on you..
@@ashleykem8052 that’s amazing! I wonder because the same diseases look different on different skin shades. Also, here in the states, African people were often used as guinea pigs when it came to some of these “medical” experiments. And our pain is often ignored because they literally think we feel less pain. It’s weird.
No, not at all. Sounds like a system that provides the ability to deliver the highest level of definitive care/triage promptly. My own first 2 years of training were in a major New England teaching hospital where there was no such thing as ER docs. Pts were immediately triaged to medicine or surgery and thereafter were cared for by general IM and/or medical subspecialist residents all overseen by specialty or sub. attending physicians/surgeons depending on the nature of the problem. Cross specialty consultation was only minutes away 24/7. Even then, when we were rotating through the ER, the joke was that we were there to keep everyone alive until the RDs arrived (Real Doctors)! In reality, every pt. who was admitted from the ER was expected to have a precise and accurate diagnosis with initial therapy underway.
I’m a senior in high school and I’m going to do pre med in college and I already have friends and family asking what’s wrong with them! I don’t know I’ve only taken med term and I’m taking health science theory right now
Older EM physician here. As nice and polite and positive this physician is, he presents a false presentation of the current state of emergency medicine. Everyone doesn’t get the best care. I have worked in dozens of hospitals all over the US for 40 + years and there are huge problems everywhere. One example that harms people is boarding patients for days in the ED. Another is having to see over 2 dozen patients in a shift and another is excessive wait times. There are many more, and all of these issues can potentially harm patients. I have never worked as few hours as he describes. He is young and still somewhat protected by his program. I wish him the best.
