I graduated with my RN in '07...I'am currently in my last year of NP School and I still use your videos to reinforce my understanding of conditions. It's Awesome and sounds so clear and concise when you teach it. I recommend this to all the nursing students I know. I Wish these videos existed in my undergrad....Thanks so much for your time and efforts!
Hello :) Thank you so much for the amazing comment. It REALLY means a lot to me to receive positive feedback from a fellow RN. I'm so happy you liked the video. I wish you the best in NP school...so awesome you are almost done. Best wishes!
Me too. Going through grad school now to become an NP. Her lectures are better than my professors' lectures unfurtunelly. I learn more from these RUclips videos than from following the boring power points my professors use.
I just found out I passed my nclex and although it's illegal to share details about the exam, I just wanted to say thank you so much!!!!! Let's just say this video definitely came in handy for multiple questions!!!! You are awesome, God bless you. I hope nothing but good things come your way because you are truly a blessing
Yay! Congrats on passing the NCLEX! I'm so happy my videos helped you, and I appreciate you taking the time to come back and let me know they were helpful. I wish you the best in your new career as a nurse ;-)
I am an LPN so I was doing home care visits and listening to your videos for content review for my exit hesi and thanks to you I PASSED!!! Love your videos
Hello. I'm here to take few minutes to say thank you so very much for all the lectures you putout on RUclips. I passed my NCLEX with a 77 question on September 30th, 2021. I want to say you are great teacher and thank you for being here. "Your hard work doesn’t go unnoticed."
Sarah- you have a special gift in combining med-surg with anatomy and pharmacology. We are taught these courses separately and you bring it all together and explain the entire process so well! Who needs live teachers when we have you!! Keep up the great work. You are my main review for NCLEX this summer👍
Cheryl, I personally want to thank you for the amazing comment. It really means a lot to me that you like my videos and they are helping you. I'm so happy you will be using the videos to help you prep for NCLEX. I'm very honored! I wish you the best on it!
Thank you for this. I went a decade after my first major adrenal issue without a diagnosis, being told I had depression or was just dehydrated. I really appreciate you ensuring people are properly trained to recognize and help :)
Hi , I'm physician, emergency department. I think you'r videos are great, also for doctors. It helps me very much . Quick review, 15 minuts crashcard . Great job! keep going with them :-)
I dont know that I would make it through nursing school without you. Thank you so much for your selfless contributions towards our success. God keep you and bless you always.
I just want to say thank you so much for doing this. Its hard enough being a broke college student studying for the NCLEX but the fact that you have this mini lecture for all of us to use is so thoughtful. Many people have the luxury to spend hundreds on NCLEX prep courses but I feel like Im getting just us much from your videos for free. I almost thought that there was gonna be a catch like "watch the rest of the video after subscribing on this link" or something haha. But honestly thank you. As I am only a few weeks away from my NCLEX this honestly is so helpful.
Hello :) Thank you so much for the awesome comment! I totally understand the broke thing while being a student because that was me lol! I guess that is why I wanted to create a RUclips channel and website that was free for students because I know the struggle with money (and all you want to do is pass NCLEX so you can WORK and make money...finally). I'm so happy you can benefit from the videos. Thank you for watching them. I wish you the best when you take NCLEX. Thank you again for the comment!
I'm not a med student or learning this in school or anything, but I came here to learn about Cushing's disease, and I was really happy to find out how straightforward and informational this video was for me. I will definitely be more equipped with knowledge that can help me be able to help my doctor be able to discover what is going on.
Thank you so much for the really kind comment. I appreciate you taking the time to watch my videos. I'm glad the video can help you understand the disease better. I hope you and your doctor find out what is going on :)
hiiii :) I too want to say thank you for doing this! Your videos are amazing and I love the free quiz. Most importantly I am so appreciative for the free notes that go along with the lecture. I have been known to pull up word and take notes as I watch videos by pausing and going back to push play, etc. Your notes allow me to watch your video with my full attention on you and the topic being taught. I then can review the notes on your site! This saves me so much time and I believe is allowing me to really absorb the material. THANK YOU! Sarah
Hello Sarah :) You're most welcome! THANK YOU for taking the time to write me this awesome comment. It feels so good to hear that you are enjoying the quizzes and lectures notes because I really never know what people like or don't like...so knowing you like the quizzes and notes really helps me for the future videos. On the newest videos, I'm placing the link for the lecture notes in the RUclips description rather than the video because RUclips prefers we don't use annotations anymore (people who use mobile devices can't see the annotation). So, if you can't find them in the video the link will be there. Again, thank you so much for your comment. I wish you the best in your studies, and thanks for using my channel :)
This is absolutely perfect and teaches me everything I need to know for my exam. So much better than just reading the text. For nursing school it's EXACTLY how they test. Thank you, thank you for including acronyms, S/S, nursing interventions, eduction, etc. Extremely easy to follow, you are excellent!!
You're very welcome, Tay :) THANK YOU for this amazing comment...means a lot to me. I'm so happy you like how I present the material. You're very kind! I wish you the best in nursing school :)
Sarah, You are a LIFESAVER!!! I learned after watching your videos 3 or 4 times material that I struggled to learn in 4 month classes. Thank you so much for breaking down this extensive amount of information for us to make it sooo much easier to understand. :)
I graduated 8yrs ago and I already gave up my nursing career i did a lot of reviews tons of nclex books i used. Still as a foreign graduate (earn my BSN in Philippines) its hard to study nclex and various culture (patients) you have to think of. But then my youtube suggest your channel and then after watching your videos i understand the content so well better than any other review class i attended. I thank you for your effort you really help a lot of new/old graduates pass their boards. I will say your videos are big part of achieving my goals. Passed my nclex on May 2019. I am now RN, BSN. I've been recommending your videos to all my friends who graduated long time ago. Thank you!
I can honestly say your videos are more helpful than the lectures my teachers give me! I think I have watched almost every one of your videos for my med-surg final tomorrow! THANK YOU SO MUCH:)
Sarah, I know I just thanked you on another video but am thanking you again. I just took my third exam in GIGU and aced it a 45/50. I watched your videos over the diabetes, dka, addisons, cushings, abd saidh. Your side by side comparisons really helped! Last semester I watched your videos for fluid and electrolytes and was one of the few students who passed that exam. I am in my third semester of nursing school and have watched your videos every semester. I enjoy being able to take a quiz after your presentations and seeing if I really understood the info. Thank you, so much Sarah, for taking time to make these videos. I tell other students to watch them too. A lot of material that was unclear in class and in the reading makes sense after your videos. I will be watching your videos for my next exam. I can rely on your videos for professional, accurate, relevant, supplemental info.
Hello again :) Thank you SO MUCH for another awesome comment. It really means a lot to me to hear that my videos are helping you prep for exams and that you are passing them. Congrats on getting a 45/50...super awesome! I'm also glad you like the corresponding quiz with each video as well. Also, thank you for telling other students to watch my videos...I really appreciate you sharing the word about my channel. I wish you the best in your studies, and my channel will always be here to help you out :)
I love how you put the text overlay on a lot of these videos. Appreciate it! Love your videos for a refresher during finals and I’ll definitely watch them after next semester for NCLEX!
You are an amazing teacher! The endocrine system I found a little difficult but a classmate advised me to look at your videos and honestly it was the best thing in the world ! You have a talent and I thank you for using it to better other future nurses ! Thank you for teaching and providing these very helpful resources!
Hello Daniel :) I'm so honored my videos are helping med students as well. Yes, I will definitely start tagging my videos as this as well :) THANK YOU for your kind comment! Best wishes in medical school!
You're my favorite. I am in med surg 2 and my teachers lectures are farrr too confusing compared to yours. It's straight to the point and includes the patho, S/S, treatments, and nursing interventions. LOVE IT!
Wow, thank you very much, Sam :) I'm honored to be your favorite! I'm so glad you enjoy the videos. Thank you for watching them and for taking the time to leave this comment.
I would like to Thank you nurse Sarah for all your nursing videos. You helped me get through three years of BScN-Nursing program and I will continue to watch your videos and to practice your NCLEX style exams" one more year left, then NCLEX EXAM". Thank you again and God Bless you!
Thank you so much for your videos. I am a final year nursing student from South Africa. I am writing my final (SANC) exams on Nov 21 & 23. Your videos have really helped me immensely over the past 3 years. I always recommend it to any new nursing student I meet :)
I am only 20 years old. And i will be applying to a nursing program next year!!! I see your videos and they mke me understand more. Thank you so much!!!
I love all your videos, I am currently in a BSN program and watching your videos has helped me soooo much. I really appreciate the work that you do. I'm sure you're just as great of a nurse.
I'm an RN here in my country (Philippines) and will be taking NCLEX-RN this year. Your videos helped me a lot esp in refreshing some topics i barely understand when reading nursing books. Thanks. Keep it up!
Im a second degree nursing student who has to learn A LOT of information in a very short amount of time with a mediocre patho professor.... your videos are an absolute life saver. I appreciate them SO MUCH. and love the quizzes at the end to test my knowledge! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!
You're so welcome :) Thank you for this very awesome comment, and I'm glad the videos help you along with the quizzes. I'm honored you use them! I wish you the best in your studies :)
it's so hard for me to read and understand my med surg text book, I figured I would look up endocrine issues on here and I find this...my exam next week is over endocrine and we have to know about 15 different disorders, my mind is fried trying to keep everything straight, you have NO idea how much you are helping! I took two pages of notes while watching this video and I feel like I could easily explain it to someone else. you really are a lifesaver! and you are appreciated! all the way from Michigan! thank you!!!
Love all of your videos, I passed my Nclex in 75 questions . I felt like you were there teaching when I took my SATA questions. ;) What they will ask is basically in your lectures. Your are so amazing.
I am currently in my first semester of NP school and I have a pathophysiology midterm in 4 days. This video has helped me SOOOO much. I look forward to watching your other lectures. Thank you!!!
Thank you so much for all your videos! They are amazing and they really help me to understand tough subjects like the endocrine system. I'm only a few months away from taking my NCLEX-LPN and I know that everything you do will be a huge help!!!! Thank you!
I love your videos! I am going to grad school to become a FNP and found your videos to be very helpful including the pharmacology part. Thank you so much! I wish my professors were nearly as good as you are.
Your videos help me out alot to study for NCLEX LPN. I took my test August 17th and found out I passed August 19th😁. Thank u soooooo much for all your great video's
CONGRATS Lisa, LPN!! That is so AWESOME! I'm so honored and humbled my videos helped you prep. THANK YOU for using them. I wish you the best in your new career as a nurse. I pray that you touch and save many lives during your time as a nurse. Again, thank you for this comment. I love hearing feedback like this...makes my day!
I'm no where near nursing school, I'm only 16 and am still in high school, I love learning about this stuff and aspire to be as brilliant of a RN as you! Thanks so much for helping me!
+Tagan Riley Wow, thank you so much, Tagan! I very much appreciate this comment :) I think it is so awesome you are already preparing and trying to learn as much as you can. Only a few more years left in high school and you will be on your way to nursing school. I hope my channel can continue to help you through your journey. Please keep me updated on how everything progresses for you throughout the years!
Tagan Riley as a nursing student myself that was very smart of you to prepare. I’m assuming you’re still on your way to nursing school, continue watching these videos and review anatomy and physiology as it will really get you a step ahead of the game.
you are my hero!. I have been out of nursing for 30years and have decided to return by retaking the NCLEX exam to reinstate. Your videos and tips are the best!!
thank you so much for all your hard work and the time you spend on these videos. I had to repeat a class due to test anxiety and I started studying pretty much only by using your videos and it calms me so much with how you simplify everything and take the time to walk through the information. Thank you SO much Sarah for all you do.
Hello! I happened upon your video. I was diagnosed with Cushing's disease In 2014. I was surgically treated that same year and was declared to be in remission. Then I experienced a recurrence in 2018 but was not diagnosed until 2020. In March of that year, I underwent gamma knife radio surgery and two years later I'm still awaiting remission. I just wanted to note that indeed cortisol is the main culprit in Cushing's disease. However in my case, my aldosterone levels were through the roof with both of my battles with this disease. And it makes total sense because my blood pressure was uncontrollable even with meds, and I retained an enormous amount of sodium / water. I know others who maintained healthy aldosterone levels throughout their journey with Cushing's. This disease affects everyone differently, but I wonder if in the more severe cases, aldosterone levels are exaggerated as well? Just a theory. Wonderful video!
Thank you so much for the comment :) I wish you the best on your boards! I'm honored you using my videos as a part of your study plan...that makes my day.
Your videos make it so easier to understand difficult topics. You are a great teacher! And not only NCLEX, we can be ready for so many exams after going through these videos. Thank you for the help! (y)
Wow, thank you for this very kind comment! I really appreciate it! I'm so happy the videos are helping you! Again, thank you for taking the time to leave this comment. You're awesome!
Wow, thank you so much, Elena. I'm so honored you're using my videos and quizzes to help you study...that means a lot to me. I wish you the best in nursing school, and I'm excited to go with you on the journey :)
+Nicole Simms Aww, thank you so much, Nicole! Your comment means a lot to me, and I'm so happy I could help you out for your med surg. class. Thank you for watching my videos!
All the topics presented are excellent and the way you discuss them is really awesome making me feel confident to jump right back to nursing without reluctance. Thank you so much and keep up the good work! I love your site!
+vicky santos Thank you so much for this kind comment, Vicky! I appreciate it very much! I hope you do jump back into nursing (we need you) and I wish you the best.
Hi Sarah! I just want to say thank you for ur videos that helped and inspired me alot during my Nclex RN review, took my test last Sept. 7, 2018 and through God's grace I Passed at 75 questions in 1 hr and 20 mins :) ... Keep up and more power. God bless u more and more. 😘
about to start my senior year of BSN, your videos really helped with A&P, Patho and my first year, and I wanted to thank you for for taking the time to make the videos, great job.
Thank you for making this topic easy to understand and make some quick way to remember😂, it's hard waking up in the morning and attend morning online lecture during lockdown. Thank you!
I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for making these videos! I passed patho ! it has really helped me so much. You truly have a gift. I want to be a GREAT nurse just like you. See you next semester with Pharm & Adult Health
Thank you very much! I'm so glad the videos help! Thank you for the kind comment and for taking the time to watch the video. I wish you the best in your studies!
Thanks a million for these great videos! I am a final year Irish medical student and this video series are a great quick way to review. They've saved me a few hours rereading through tedious textbooks. The resources on your website are great as well!
My complex endocrine exam is on Wednesday and I have been watching all of your videos regarding the subject. I felt like I learned nothing in class but your videos have been helping me understand content so much better! This is the last exam of the semester before heading into capstone next Sunday, then pinning in December! Thank you so so much for posting these videos, I know I'll be referring to them for nclex review and when I start working to refresh my memory.
I just want to thank you for all the detailed and hard work you do. I really appreciate the efforts you put in these videos. Just know you have made this nursing student a grateful learner. Thank you once again!!!
Thank you so much for your kind words, Danielle :) I'm glad you did find me! Awesome you graduate in December which is just around the corner. I wish you the best on NCLEX!
I have adrenal insufficiency by way of bilateral adrenalectomy due to Cushing’s that was caused by PPNAD. It's reassuring to know that nurses are trained in this!
Hi Katrina :) Thank you so much for sharing your experience with this disease process. It is good for students learning about these conditions to be able to see how it affects people in "real life".....it makes the material more understandable. I hope you are doing better now :)
I wanted to thank you, I am now in 4 semester, I spent the last week watching your endocrine series and today I got a 97.5 on my exam. prior to this exam, my highest nursing exam grade was in the low 80s
Wow...I wish I would have seen these videos since I started the transitional nursing program. Been an LVN for 15 years and I feel totally lost in class. Will sure use them with future lectures. You are awesome at making them interesting, simple, and very informative. Keep up the awesome videos.
Hello Eva :) Thank you very much for the awesome comment. I'm honored to help a fellow nurse out in their studies. Thank you for using my videos. I wish you the best in your studies! Again, thank you for taking the time to write this comment!
You're such a brilliant teacher Sarah. Thanks for sharing. I love you already! Everytime I get confused on some topics, I go over your videos and yes you explained it simpler, with hints on the significant points and it's easy to remember as well. You are totally awesome! Keep it up. God bless.
+Eve R. Wow, thank you for your kind words and comment. I'm so glad that you find my videos helpful. I wish you the very best of blessings in your studies. May God bless you!
Watched all your videos on the Endocrine System....Thank you so much. Made an A on that test. Now we are studying the autoimmune system---Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, Multiple Sclerosis, and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and I cannot find your videos anywhere. I do not want to talk bad about the other videos but I will say they are not you and I feel like my favorite dog died and I am having to find a replacement. You got one week to get recording. :) Luckily, Addison's and Cushing's are on the next test so that will help a little bit. Thank you so much for doing this. I have spent more time watching your videos this month than I have with my family.
Hello Mike :) Congrats on getting an A on your exam....I'm so glad my videos have helped you! Thank you for your kind words. I really appreciate them! Yes, I definitely need to create an autoimmune series. I've added those topics you provided to my list and they will be some of the first subjects I cover. Right now, I doing a GI series and then renal (due to high demand from viewers). Thank you again for the awesome comment, and I wish you the best in your studies!
I absolutely love this video! It helps with the A&P and it just makes sense to know what the normal function is and compare it to the disease and what you would expect the patient to look like. I'm so glad I found your videos!!
Thank you so much for this video!! I loved it! You are an excellent teacher who's able to explain things in simple terms and putting the pieces together to understand better. I've always struggled with the endocrine system and differentiating them all. I will definitely continue to watch your nursing videos!! This will help me with in preparation for my NCLEX exam this summer!! Great job and Thank you!!!!!! :)
+Maly Vang Wow! Thank you so much for this very awesome comment, Maly! It feels really good to hear that my video helped you understand the endocrine system better. I'm honored that I could help you :) Yes, definitely come back and watch more videos when studying for NCLEX because I will be adding more videos. I appreciate your comment very much and best wishes on NCLEX :)
Bandwagonning on everyone else here, thanks for being a great educator! Hopefully you will be a professor one day, you're already better than most I've had. Lastly, Roll Tide!
Thank you so much for this (and all videos) I use your videos to study and take notes, I don't always have time to read 3 chapters (plus I get nothing out of just reading), but by watching your videos I feel like a have good grasp on the etiology & pathophysio as a good foundation plus what I really need to know as nurse which is the nursing interventions/considerations. Thanks!!
hi Sara!! thank you so much for all your great videos.. in 3 days we will test for our own nclex here in Israel and Iv'e learned so much from you. thank you!!!!!!
You're most welcome, Jenni :) I'm glad you all found me, especially during the last semester...it is almost over..woohoo :) Tell your classmate for me "THANK YOU for sharing my videos"...I appreciate it greatly!
i am preparing for DHA exams for dubai and your videos are very helpfull and revising all from your videos and its so helpfull same book review like NCLEX RN.. Thank you so much...
+sharoon nerdy You're most welcome! I'm so happy my videos can help you prep for your DHA exams. It is very awesome to have a viewer from Dubai! I wish you the best on the exam and hope you ace it! Happy New Year!
I have been misdiagnosed pan hypo pituitary for 30 years I have suffered terrible pain and all of the symptoms you mentioned for Addison crisis. The medicos here don’t know enough about this disease. I did my research and then got tested holistically recently and now I’m on cortisol and I’m way better but still struggling with fatigue and illness, and depression. It’s a tough gig to have to deal with, but I’m still trying to have a normal life.
Though I will not take the NCLEX (since I reside in Montreal, Canada), I’m still watching your videos everyday. What I love about your videos are the mnemonics you used, especially for the Med-Surg part. They’re super duper easy to remember as you are trying to incorporate the said mnemonics with the medical condition. Hope you’ll continue to make videos like this and wish me luck for my Nursing exam here! :)
Thank you so much, I cannot emphasize enough how much you have helped me understand these complicated topics numerous time while in Nursing School, I am forever grateful!. Keep up the amazing work :)
Just did a reading in my ATI regarding these two. I was SO lost. It all makes sense now! Thank you so much!!! You will be helping me finish out my last semester of nursing school, so thank you for all you do! :)
Hello Cory! I'm so honored you have been following my videos! I hope you ace NCLEX :) Thank you for taking the time to leave me this comment! Best wishes!
Hello again. I took my nclex rn yesterday and finished at 75 questions.. i graduated 10 years ago and im international graduate.. I have been getting the good pop up( they said its a good indicator if you pass) but still waitng for my offical result. I just wanna say thank you for all your videos and i actuualy recommend you to a facebook group whose preparing for nclex..
Hello again to you Cory :) That sounds like reassuring news....I hope you passed. I know you will feel so happy to have it over with. Thank you so much for recommending my channel to your facebook group....that really means a lot to me! Please let me know the official results if you can :)
Good video. (You need better lighting). Even as an RN with 40 years' experience and being a nursing professor, I have never understood or remembered this stuff. This is a great review before I have to cover this topic. It might be good to point out that this patho is why we teach patients not to stop steroids abruptly--to prevent a pseudo adrenal crisis.
Thank you so much for all the hard work you put into making your videos! They are SOOOOOOOO helpful! Your hard work and dedication to helping others is greatly appreciated....you rock!

Thank you for your great videos,
I just found out I passed my nclex and although it's illegal to share details about the exam, I just wanted to say thank you so much!!!!! Let's just say this video definitely came in handy for multiple questions!!!! You are awesome, God bless you. I hope nothing but good things come your way because you are truly a blessing
Yay! Congrats on passing the NCLEX! I'm so happy my videos helped you, and I appreciate you taking the time to come back and let me know they were helpful. I wish you the best in your new career as a nurse ;-)
Contgratulation

Thank you for this.
I went a decade after my first major adrenal issue without a diagnosis, being told I had depression or was just dehydrated. I really appreciate you ensuring people are properly trained to recognize and help :)
Hi , I'm physician, emergency department. I think you'r videos are great, also for doctors. It helps me very much . Quick review, 15 minuts crashcard . Great job! keep going with them :-)
Wow, thank you so much for the AWESOME comment! I appreciate it so much! Thank you for watching it.
I dont know that I would make it through nursing school without you. Thank you so much for your selfless contributions towards our success. God keep you and bless you always.
I just want to say thank you so much for doing this.

hiiii :)
I too want to say thank you for doing this! Your videos are amazing and I love the free quiz. Most importantly I am so appreciative for the free notes that go along with the lecture. I have been known to pull up word and take notes as I watch videos by pausing and going back to push play, etc. Your notes allow me to watch your video with my full attention on you and the topic being taught. I then can review the notes on your site! This saves me so much time and I believe is allowing me to really absorb the material. THANK YOU!

I graduated 8yrs ago and I already gave up my nursing career i did a lot of reviews tons of nclex books i used. Still as a foreign graduate (earn my BSN in Philippines) its hard to study nclex and various culture (patients) you have to think of. But then my youtube suggest your channel and then after watching your videos i understand the content so well better than any other review class i attended. I thank you for your effort you really help a lot of new/old graduates pass their boards. I will say your videos are big part of achieving my goals. Passed my nclex on May 2019. I am now RN, BSN. I've been recommending your videos to all my friends who graduated long time ago. Thank you!

After a year of hopping around RUclips for help, you've earned THE top spot to which I keep coming back. Thank you!
I'm about to take the NCLEX in a month and I'm just so thankful I found your videos! Thank you!
Best wishes when you take NCLEX! I'm so happy you found me. Thank you for using my videos to help you prep!
I can honestly say your videos are more helpful than the lectures my teachers give me! I think I have watched almost every one of your videos for my med-surg final tomorrow! THANK YOU SO MUCH:)
You're most welcome! Thank you for taking the time to leave this awesome comment :) I really appreciate it!
Thank you, Sarah! It's pure learning and not clickbait for any product.
Sarah, I know I just thanked you on another video but am thanking you again. I just took my third exam in GIGU and aced it a 45/50. I watched your videos over the diabetes, dka, addisons, cushings, abd saidh. Your side by side comparisons really helped! Last semester I watched your videos for fluid and electrolytes and was one of the few students who passed that exam. I am in my third semester of nursing school and have watched your videos every semester. I enjoy being able to take a quiz after your presentations and seeing if I really understood the info.
Thank you, so much Sarah, for taking time to make these videos. I tell other students to watch them too. A lot of material that was unclear in class and in the reading makes sense after your videos. I will be watching your videos for my next exam. I can rely on your videos for professional, accurate, relevant, supplemental info.
Hello again :) Thank you SO MUCH for another awesome comment. It really means a lot to me to hear that my videos are helping you prep for exams and that you are passing them. Congrats on getting a 45/50...super awesome! I'm also glad you like the corresponding quiz with each video as well. Also, thank you for telling other students to watch my videos...I really appreciate you sharing the word about my channel. I wish you the best in your studies, and my channel will always be here to help you out :)
I am watching Cushing and addison disease. Many new things to learn. presentation is so nice.
I love how you put the text overlay on a lot of these videos. Appreciate it! Love your videos for a refresher during finals and I’ll definitely watch them after next semester for NCLEX!
You are an amazing teacher! The endocrine system I found a little difficult but a classmate advised me to look at your videos and honestly it was the best thing in the world ! You have a talent and I thank you for using it to better other future nurses ! Thank you for teaching and providing these very helpful resources!
kaneshs ross
I love all your videos and in fact am much interested in learning more. thx so much
the BEST nursing instructor on earth. clearest explanation u can get
You are an incredible teacher. You have no idea how many times you have saved my nursing education. Thank you; you deserve some kind of award.
Med student here. You should totally tag your videos as just med review or something vs just nursing. Love the videos! Helps us med students too!
Hello Daniel :) I'm so honored my videos are helping med students as well. Yes, I will definitely start tagging my videos as this as well :) THANK YOU for your kind comment! Best wishes in medical school!
You're my favorite. I am in med surg 2 and my teachers lectures are farrr too confusing compared to yours. It's straight to the point and includes the patho, S/S, treatments, and nursing interventions. LOVE IT!
Wow, thank you very much, Sam :) I'm honored to be your favorite! I'm so glad you enjoy the videos. Thank you for watching them and for taking the time to leave this comment.
I would like to Thank you nurse Sarah for all your nursing videos. You helped me get through three years of BScN-Nursing program and I will continue to watch your videos and to practice your NCLEX style exams" one more year left, then NCLEX EXAM". Thank you again and God Bless you!
Thank you so much for your videos. I am a final year nursing student from South Africa. I am writing my final (SANC) exams on Nov 21 & 23. Your videos have really helped me immensely over the past 3 years. I always recommend it to any new nursing student I meet :)
I am only 20 years old. And i will be applying to a nursing program next year!!! I see your videos and they mke me understand more. Thank you so much!!!
I love all your videos, I am currently in a BSN program and watching your videos has helped me soooo much. I really appreciate the work that you do. I'm sure you're just as great of a nurse.
This video was 100% helpful for my nclex rn exam. today I'm an RN
CONGRATS!! Thank you for using my video as a resource to help you prep for NCLEX. Best wishes to you in your new career as a nurse :)
As a person who has health problems I found this video excellent in conveying medical information to a lay person.
I'm an RN here in my country (Philippines) and will be taking NCLEX-RN this year. Your videos helped me a lot esp in refreshing some topics i barely understand when reading nursing books. Thanks. Keep it up!
RN Sarah is a life saver.... hero for life.
Thank you for all these wonderful videos. It’s so helpful
Im a second degree nursing student who has to learn A LOT of information in a very short amount of time with a mediocre patho professor.... your videos are an absolute life saver. I appreciate them SO MUCH. and love the quizzes at the end to test my knowledge! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!
You're so welcome :) Thank you for this very awesome comment, and I'm glad the videos help you along with the quizzes. I'm honored you use them! I wish you the best in your studies :)
it's so hard for me to read and understand my med surg text book, I figured I would look up endocrine issues on here and I find this...my exam next week is over endocrine and we have to know about 15 different disorders, my mind is fried trying to keep everything straight, you have NO idea how much you are helping! I took two pages of notes while watching this video and I feel like I could easily explain it to someone else. you really are a lifesaver! and you are appreciated! all the way from Michigan! thank you!!!
Love all of your videos, I passed my Nclex in 75 questions . I felt like you were there teaching when I took my SATA questions. ;) What they will ask is basically in your lectures. Your are so amazing.
Light finally came on with the way you explained this after listening to other lectures. Thanks so much
I am currently in my first semester of NP school and I have a pathophysiology midterm in 4 days. This video has helped me SOOOO much. I look forward to watching your other lectures. Thank you!!!
You make it easy for me to understand this topic. Thank you and please continue making lecture videos. I 'm preparing my self to take the nclex exam.
Thank you so much for all your videos! They are amazing and they really help me to understand tough subjects like the endocrine system. I'm only a few months away from taking my NCLEX-LPN and I know that everything you do will be a huge help!!!! Thank you!
I love your videos! I am going to grad school to become a FNP and found your videos to be very helpful including the pharmacology part. Thank you so much! I wish my professors were nearly as good as you are.
Your videos help me out alot to study for NCLEX LPN. I took my test August 17th and found out I passed August 19th😁. Thank u soooooo much for all your great video's
CONGRATS Lisa, LPN!! That is so AWESOME! I'm so honored and humbled my videos helped you prep. THANK YOU for using them. I wish you the best in your new career as a nurse. I pray that you touch and save many lives during your time as a nurse. Again, thank you for this comment. I love hearing feedback like this...makes my day!

nyc
Please mam could you explain us chest x-ray to interpret TB, pneumonia ,cardio pulmonary edema, chest infection, and many more others..
Thank you so much, you lecture way better than most instructors at my nursing school!
I'm no where near nursing school, I'm only 16 and am still in high school, I love learning about this stuff and aspire to be as brilliant of a RN as you! Thanks so much for helping me!
+Tagan Riley Wow, thank you so much, Tagan! I very much appreciate this comment :) I think it is so awesome you are already preparing and trying to learn as much as you can. Only a few more years left in high school and you will be on your way to nursing school. I hope my channel can continue to help you through your journey. Please keep me updated on how everything progresses for you throughout the years!
Tagan Riley as a nursing student myself that was very smart of you to prepare. I’m assuming you’re still on your way to nursing school, continue watching these videos and review anatomy and physiology as it will really get you a step ahead of the game.
I would be dead without this lady! So beautiful and down to earth!
You are such a blessing to all the nursing students ....I have exams next month and your videos have been so helpful to enhance my knowldege❤❤❤
you are my hero!. I have been out of nursing for 30years and have decided to return by retaking the NCLEX exam to reinstate. Your videos and tips are the best!!
Thanks for all your help Sarah. Your videos have been a huge part of my journey through nursing school.
thank you so much for all your hard work and the time you spend on these videos. I had to repeat a class due to test anxiety and I started studying pretty much only by using your videos and it calms me so much with how you simplify everything and take the time to walk through the information. Thank you SO much Sarah for all you do.
Hello! I happened upon your video. I was diagnosed with Cushing's disease In 2014. I was surgically treated that same year and was declared to be in remission. Then I experienced a recurrence in 2018 but was not diagnosed until 2020. In March of that year, I underwent gamma knife radio surgery and two years later I'm still awaiting remission. I just wanted to note that indeed cortisol is the main culprit in Cushing's disease. However in my case, my aldosterone levels were through the roof with both of my battles with this disease. And it makes total sense because my blood pressure was uncontrollable even with meds, and I retained an enormous amount of sodium / water. I know others who maintained healthy aldosterone levels throughout their journey with Cushing's. This disease affects everyone differently, but I wonder if in the more severe cases, aldosterone levels are exaggerated as well? Just a theory. Wonderful video!
I'm studying for RN boards and your videos are always my first study plan after I read my book.
Thank you so much for the comment :) I wish you the best on your boards! I'm honored you using my videos as a part of your study plan...that makes my day.
I am a audio and visual learning. The videos help me tremendously! Easy to understand and right to the point. Thank you!
Your videos make it so easier to understand difficult topics. You are a great teacher!
And not only NCLEX, we can be ready for so many exams after going through these videos. Thank you for the help! (y)
Wow, thank you for this very kind comment! I really appreciate it! I'm so happy the videos are helping you! Again, thank you for taking the time to leave this comment. You're awesome!
Thank you, our family genetically suffer from various adrenal malfunctions, CAH and Addison’s so this is very helpful in our understanding.
You are the best. I understood perfectly that I felt I could explain. The simplicity is topnotch.
Great work
I love all your videos and quizzes. I'm in nursing school now and I use you so much for studying...
Wow, thank you so much, Elena. I'm so honored you're using my videos and quizzes to help you study...that means a lot to me. I wish you the best in nursing school, and I'm excited to go with you on the journey :)
You are an outstanding teacher. It has helped me understand so much in Med surge. Thank you
+Nicole Simms Aww, thank you so much, Nicole! Your comment means a lot to me, and I'm so happy I could help you out for your med surg. class. Thank you for watching my videos!
All the topics presented are excellent and the way you discuss them is really awesome making me feel confident to jump right back to nursing without reluctance. Thank you so much and keep up the good work! I love your site!
+vicky santos Thank you so much for this kind comment, Vicky! I appreciate it very much! I hope you do jump back into nursing (we need you) and I wish you the best.
I'm a nurse practitioner student, and I use your videos as a reference! They are awesome, keep up the good work!!
Thank you so much! I like your teaching style, in which you break down a topic into pieces. Meanwhile, showing these pieces in a logical connection.
You are such an amazing teacher & have helped me so much throughout nursing school & now I'm graduated! Thank you 🙏
All of your videos are such well-done educational masterpieces. I'm an LPN and your videos are helping me in the RN program. Thank you!

Yay! Congrats! That is so awesome! May God continue to bless you in your career as a new nurse!
about to start my senior year of BSN, your videos really helped with A&P, Patho and my first year, and I wanted to thank you for for taking the time to make the videos, great job.
Thank you for making this topic easy to understand and make some quick way to remember😂, it's hard waking up in the morning and attend morning online lecture during lockdown. Thank you!
I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for making these videos! I passed patho ! it has really helped me so much. You truly have a gift. I want to be a GREAT nurse just like you. See you next semester with Pharm & Adult Health

Thank you very much! I'm so glad the videos help! Thank you for the kind comment and for taking the time to watch the video. I wish you the best in your studies!
Thanks a million for these great videos! I am a final year Irish medical student and this video series are a great quick way to review. They've saved me a few hours rereading through tedious textbooks. The resources on your website are great as well!
My complex endocrine exam is on Wednesday and I have been watching all of your videos regarding the subject. I felt like I learned nothing in class but your videos have been helping me understand content so much better! This is the last exam of the semester before heading into capstone next Sunday, then pinning in December! Thank you so so much for posting these videos, I know I'll be referring to them for nclex review and when I start working to refresh my memory.
I just want to thank you for all the detailed and hard work you do. I really appreciate the efforts you put in these videos. Just know you have made this nursing student a grateful learner. Thank you once again!!!
very helpful video! i have my med surg exam tomorrow, this was very helpful to understand cushing and addisons! thank you Sarah!
You're so welcome :) I hope your exam goes well today in med surg! Thank you for using my video to help you prep for it....very awesome!
These videos are truly amazing! I graduate in December, so I only wish that I would have found them so much sooner. Truly thank you!!
Thank you so much for your kind words, Danielle :) I'm glad you did find me! Awesome you graduate in December which is just around the corner. I wish you the best on NCLEX!
I made a 93% on my test thanks to you!
I have adrenal insufficiency by way of bilateral adrenalectomy due to Cushing’s that was caused by PPNAD. It's reassuring to know that nurses are trained in this!
Hi Katrina :) Thank you so much for sharing your experience with this disease process. It is good for students learning about these conditions to be able to see how it affects people in "real life".....it makes the material more understandable. I hope you are doing better now :)
I wanted to thank you, I am now in 4 semester, I spent the last week watching your endocrine series and today I got a 97.5 on my exam. prior to this exam, my highest nursing exam grade was in the low 80s
Wow...I wish I would have seen these videos since I started the transitional nursing program. Been an LVN for 15 years and I feel totally lost in class. Will sure use them with future lectures. You are awesome at making them interesting, simple, and very informative. Keep up the awesome videos.
Hello Eva :) Thank you very much for the awesome comment. I'm honored to help a fellow nurse out in their studies. Thank you for using my videos. I wish you the best in your studies! Again, thank you for taking the time to write this comment!
You're such a brilliant teacher Sarah. Thanks for sharing. I love you already! Everytime I get confused on some topics, I go over your videos and yes you explained it simpler, with hints on the significant points and it's easy to remember as well. You are totally awesome! Keep it up. God bless.
+Eve R. Wow, thank you for your kind words and comment. I'm so glad that you find my videos helpful. I wish you the very best of blessings in your studies. May God bless you!
Watched all your videos on the Endocrine System....Thank you so much. Made an A on that test. Now we are studying the autoimmune system---Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, Multiple Sclerosis, and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and I cannot find your videos anywhere. I do not want to talk bad about the other videos but I will say they are not you and I feel like my favorite dog died and I am having to find a replacement. You got one week to get recording. :) Luckily, Addison's and Cushing's are on the next test so that will help a little bit. Thank you so much for doing this. I have spent more time watching your videos this month than I have with my family.
Hello Mike :) Congrats on getting an A on your exam....I'm so glad my videos have helped you! Thank you for your kind words. I really appreciate them! Yes, I definitely need to create an autoimmune series. I've added those topics you provided to my list and they will be some of the first subjects I cover. Right now, I doing a GI series and then renal (due to high demand from viewers). Thank you again for the awesome comment, and I wish you the best in your studies!
I absolutely love this video! It helps with the A&P and it just makes sense to know what the normal function is and compare it to the disease and what you would expect the patient to look like. I'm so glad I found your videos!!
Thank you so much, April! I'm so happy you found me too! I wish you the best in your studies!
Thank you so much for this video!! I loved it! You are an excellent teacher who's able to explain things in simple terms and putting the pieces together to understand better. I've always struggled with the endocrine system and differentiating them all. I will definitely continue to watch your nursing videos!! This will help me with in preparation for my NCLEX exam this summer!! Great job and Thank you!!!!!! :)
+Maly Vang Wow! Thank you so much for this very awesome comment, Maly! It feels really good to hear that my video helped you understand the endocrine system better. I'm honored that I could help you :) Yes, definitely come back and watch more videos when studying for NCLEX because I will be adding more videos. I appreciate your comment very much and best wishes on NCLEX :)
Bandwagonning on everyone else here, thanks for being a great educator! Hopefully you will be a professor one day, you're already better than most I've had. Lastly, Roll Tide!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I appreciate them very much! Thank you for taking the time to watch the video! Best wishes in your studies!
Thank you so much for this (and all videos) I use your videos to study and take notes, I don't always have time to read 3 chapters (plus I get nothing out of just reading), but by watching your videos I feel like a have good grasp on the etiology & pathophysio as a good foundation plus what I really need to know as nurse which is the nursing interventions/considerations. Thanks!!
hi Sara!! thank you so much for all your great videos.. in 3 days we will test for our own nclex here in Israel and Iv'e learned so much from you. thank you!!!!!!
Its was my sister...
thank you so much we are nursing students from Kuwait , and we are always see your videos, they make it very easier.THANK YOU❤️
You're most welcome :) Very awesome to have a viewer from Kuwait! Thank you for your kind words, and for watching the videos!
Thank you, thank you!!
My classmate shared your videos with us! We our in our last semester, we found you right on time before a heavy hitting exam!
You're most welcome, Jenni :) I'm glad you all found me, especially during the last semester...it is almost over..woohoo :) Tell your classmate for me "THANK YOU for sharing my videos"...I appreciate it greatly!
i am preparing for DHA exams for dubai and your videos are very helpfull and revising all from your videos and its so helpfull same book review like NCLEX RN.. Thank you so much...
+sharoon nerdy You're most welcome! I'm so happy my videos can help you prep for your DHA exams. It is very awesome to have a viewer from Dubai! I wish you the best on the exam and hope you ace it! Happy New Year!
Wish you the same.... will let you know when i got the date for exams....
I have been misdiagnosed pan hypo pituitary for 30 years I have suffered terrible pain and all of the symptoms you mentioned for Addison crisis. The medicos here don’t know enough about this disease. I did my research and then got tested holistically recently and now I’m on cortisol and I’m way better but still struggling with fatigue and illness, and depression. It’s a tough gig to have to deal with, but I’m still trying to have a normal life.
Though I will not take the NCLEX (since I reside in Montreal, Canada), I’m still watching your videos everyday. What I love about your videos are the mnemonics you used, especially for the Med-Surg part. They’re super duper easy to remember as you are trying to incorporate the said mnemonics with the medical condition. Hope you’ll continue to make videos like this and wish me luck for my Nursing exam here! :)
Thank you so much, I cannot emphasize enough how much you have helped me understand these complicated topics numerous time while in Nursing School, I am forever grateful!. Keep up the amazing work :)
This helps as a Paramedic student taking his NREMT-P exam this week!
Awesome! Glad the video could help you prep for your exam. I wish you the best on it :)
really appreciate on how organized and so clear examples for these hypers- vs hypos , thank you very much!!
Just did a reading in my ATI regarding these two. I was SO lost. It all makes sense now! Thank you so much!!! You will be helping me finish out my last semester of nursing school, so thank you for all you do! :)
I just wanna say thank you for all your videos. I have been following you since i started my nclex preparation. I am gonna take it next week..
Hello Cory! I'm so honored you have been following my videos! I hope you ace NCLEX :) Thank you for taking the time to leave me this comment! Best wishes!
Hello again. I took my nclex rn yesterday and finished at 75 questions.. i graduated 10 years ago and im international graduate.. I have been getting the good pop up( they said its a good indicator if you pass) but still waitng for my offical result. I just wanna say thank you for all your videos and i actuualy recommend you to a facebook group whose preparing for nclex..
Hello again to you Cory :) That sounds like reassuring news....I hope you passed. I know you will feel so happy to have it over with. Thank you so much for recommending my channel to your facebook group....that really means a lot to me! Please let me know the official results if you can :)
I am officially USRN now. Thank you so much for your videos. You are amazing
CONGRATS, Cory! I knew you would pass! I wish you the best in your new career as a nurse in the US. Best wishes :)
Thank you so much for all the videos. Your videos helped a lot to pass nclex. You are an angel. Lots of respect.
Good video. (You need better lighting). Even as an RN with 40 years' experience and being a nursing professor, I have never understood or remembered this stuff. This is a great review before I have to cover this topic. It might be good to point out that this patho is why we teach patients not to stop steroids abruptly--to prevent a pseudo adrenal crisis.
I’m happy that there are videos out there explaining cushings and Addisons
Thank you so much for all the hard work you put into making your videos! They are SOOOOOOOO helpful! Your hard work and dedication to helping others is greatly appreciated....you rock!
Thank you so much for the kind comment, Adam! I'm so happy you like my videos....thanks for watching them! I'm honored I could help!
