I had a massive staphylococcus infection in my neck which went undiagnosed for 7 days. I was paralysed down my right hand side and couldn’t urinate. I was dying. Then a wonderful neurosurgeon operated on me at 11pm on a Sunday night and cleaned out most of the pus. 6 weeks on IV antibiotics and rehab and I learnt to walk again. I can’t describe how much of a blessing this was. Marvellous people!
Imagine burning consistent pain from your shoulder all the way down to the tips of your fingers all the time for over a year. Then you meet one of these Docs and the next time you see him he has just done a double disk replacement and the pain is just gone. Nothing replaced it, no goofy feelings, it’s just normal again. You guys rock, I’m 5 weeks post op and haven’t felt this good in years.🎉
Love up
This really hits home. My 3-year-old had a brain tumor removed. I have so much respect for all surgeons but Neuro especially (for a good reason). I don't even know how to thank the surgeon that performed the procedure on my daughter. No more seizures or vomiting just a normal kid. Sooo much respect for your dedication!! Thank you!!!
I hope and pray your child recovered quickly and never ever has any more tumors again
@@olas16k this is the kind of comment youtube should be flourishing with :)
I’m 60 and don’t think I’ve washed my hands cumulatively more than this surgeon did in his 5 minutes !
😂😂😂
'Day in the life' = stands washing hands for 5 minutes. I was excited to see your actual day to day routine
You wanted him to wake up, place a camera a few feet away, then go back to bed and record him waking up and walking to the bathroom, then seeing him brush his teeth, get ready and have breakfast? He's a neurosurgeon who has scheduled surgeries to do and doesn't have time for that, not a new generation kid youtubing his life.
@@hayitsj21 it says day in the life. Yeah it kind stands to reason to show his daily routine.
@@hayitsj21 I’m a retired surgeon. I would have shown viewers my day consisting of seeing patients pre-op and snippets of the surgical procedure. I would also show video of seeing patients post-op. This was a very poor video indeed with a misleading title. Title should have been How to scrub prior to surgery. Lol
This is ep1 I think there is more to show on ep2
Bro works like 100hours a week he doesn't have time for shi like this
Miss working with you! One of the best neurosurgeons I’ve worked with hands down!
Sure buddy
For real, nobody likes the neurosurgeon they work for
@@dmoney4075 one neurosurgeon I like, the other I don't. Depends if they're an ass or not
@@dmoney4075 why
@@janm7b why you not like him
Outstanding video. My husband is a beneficiary of a successful Neuro surgery and there aren't enough words in a dictionary to express our gratitude to the dedicated team of Doctors, Nurses, and Assistants who made it all happen. Thank you!
I’m in awe of how incredibly intelligent, tough and resilient one must be to become a neurosurgeon. My brilliant cousin opted out because of the stress and became a neurologist instead.
I can only imagine the strength of the docs who specialize in neurosurgery. Amazing humans.
Thank you Dr. McLaughlin for you years of study, your choice of study and your discipline in practice of your craft. My neurosurgeon played rock music during my surgery in 2004 (so I was told). He’s my hero and I am so grateful for his expertise as I am sure that is the way your patients feel about you.
As someone whos had multiple spine surgerys i have nothing but respect for men & women like urself
Just the beginning of an amazing mini series. I cannot wait for the next one! Providing students and others interested in health care a small scope of what it is like to live in your shoes. So awesome.
The 5 Ps are a formula for success in everyone's life...its going on our refrigerator....your patients, staff and family are lucky to have you....
Thank you
This is the type of content that RUclips needs much more of. Please keep posting.
I have so much respect for these immensely talented and hard working people. These are the true heroes in society.
As an Electrical Engineer, I understand the importance of preperatory work. Preparing mentally for what you're about to do makes it so much easier when you do it, and avoid mistakes most importantly.
Great video. Also, I like that, around the 4 min to 4 min 22 seconds, you talk about positivity, gratitude, prayer. I'd trust you as my doctor. Checklist are also huge in medicine, very important to minimize error. Seems like you are very passionate about what you do, and thats great to know. Unfortunately, some in healthcare are not and don't put the patient first.
I believe it takes somewhere around a decade of training after medical school before neurosurgeons actually do the work without supervision. To hear that prayer is part of his regular pre op routine shows what a marvelous practitioner he is ❤️
My beyond favorite part was him explaining the surgery then thinking a positive thought and saying a prayer for peace and clarity.
Fascinating view inside of your world! So many things I never realized just in this short episode. Looking forward to the next one.
Dear Mark, how wonderful. I look forward to your future chapters here.
I think a lot has changed and developed since my surgery by you, but your passion and dedication and desire to be always your best- what ever ways you study and prepare- are unfaltering. ( And I know both your parents would be so proud of your continuing ventures).
I read a LOT, about my problems and chronic pain...probably much, much more than most lay people...and I study a lot, but what has always been a constant, is that what ever my problems now, I HAD to have- NEEDED to have- YOUR surgery. And thank God you were trustworthy.
I appreciate you, and, regardless of all your clinical knowledge and techniques, you have a GIFT of patient caring and patient respect...I suppose some would call it "bedside manner"...but when you LISTEN to a patient, and look into a patient's EYES, I hope you never lose that special part of you.
Best wishes... 💕
straight memorization routine work. lol
You are very impressive Doc. I am truly happy to see a fellow doctor balancing his work and life. Always good to see that we are not alone…
Thanks for the kind words/
Awesome insight for us medical laymen and tons of lessons to be learned there for anyone looking to be their best. Can't wait for more! Thanks for putting this out there.
I can tell you are an amazing Surgeon!! Will never forget your 5P's. Be blessed. Thanks for the video.
My fiancé just had spinal surgery due to a blood clot that ruptured against her spine. A neurosurgeon performed the procedure and now she is slowly getting back to normal. Thank you for everything you do.
This is as serious as it gets. The best of the best. Top of the class. Discipline. God bless people like you !
The energy and stagnance and sense of affirmation u radiate truly justifies with th gravity of your profession sir. The sincerity in your voice and words must be a bliss for any patient you treat.
Just find this channel. It's a great video. It's a great motivator, I am also preparing to one day apply to neurosurgery residency. Please keep posting more nuerosurgery videos. Greetings from Ecuador.
I suffered a burst brain anuerysm the night my husband died. 3 brain surgeries, a shunt, and months of not being coherent and later going home alone, then losing my house, has left me lost. Not knowing what happened to me, what I experienced, haunts me. Thank you. Your video touches me deeply.
Wow! I am so happy to find this channel. I have two shunts, one was done 15 years after the original. 30 years and 2 kids later, I am as normal as anybody. I am very blessed. My surgeon did not have good bedside manners when it came to adults, but he loved his kiddos. He obviously was pediatric. I work in the medical transportation field now so I pass his office within the hospital often. Hopefully one day, I can stop by and say a quick Thank You.
Sooo much respect for all the doctors /surgeons who save lives day in day out and huge huge respect for the nurses. That do all the hard work that doesn’t get recognised you all deserve the up most respect! Real superheroes that do all the miracles behind the scenes ❤
Thank you
I enjoyed learning the "5 P's" and took note. Thank you!
Daily gratitude is so powerful and mixed with science, it is a beautiful thing and great healing.❤
I'm glad I found this video. I have no interest in working in the medical field, but the techniques you use to get into the mindset of going into surgery is something to take note of. I feel that everyone who is looking to learn ways to prepare and set boundaries for a major activity you plan to perform then this is the video for you.
Thank you. I had a frontal lobe craniotomy in attempt to remove a meningioma. I appreciate you and your colleagues. I would not be here today without you.
I'm a carpenter and appreciate a good plan and procedure !! Not on your level , but still it reminds me of when I'm prepping for a new job!! Top of the line in terms of skill , education and experience!! Incredible stuff Bud!!! KEEP up the Great WORK!! Peace
Bless you for what you do Doctor!
This was incredible! The world is blessed to have a Surgeon like you!
Doc that was great! I'm getting ready for three surgery's on my back and neck, I'll watch this the morning I go into the hospital, Thank You Patrick
From someone who has a borderline handwashing problem, I love this, you go doc get them hands and arms clean, love the special attention to the nails. Bravo :)
Keep these videos coming! I love learning new things
love it, never stop posting these
God bless you and thank you for helping people get better.
People that work with me in medical devices tell me I’m a brilliant CEO. The mind of a Neurosurgeon and the technical abilities they have, is Shakespeare compared to my talent. Most go dual residency as well on top of the 12 years. Insane amount of education and it never stops. Truly a craft.
wow what a guy ! a real hero! you really do earn that millions!
This guy’s mental prep is on a another level!!
I go through a very similar prep before I do surgery on my clients vehicles, the mental prep. Identify the problem, mental prep, material prep, and attack. 🇺🇸
Surgeons really are truly gifted. Their families must be super proud of them.
If they ever see them😂
I wonder how surgeons who do long surgeries manage their bathroom needs. I know this would be difficult for me to manage. The self-discipline and self-control over the mind is amazing.
I can't even fathom that we have technology that allows this, and talented doctors with the mechanical skill, focus and knowledge to complete the procedure(s). Absolutely insane.
Great video doc!
I honestly salute them for their efforts 👌
WOW! WOW! I'm glad there are people that can do this! :)
im a law student but im 100% going to adopt the 5 p's in my daily professional practice!!!!!!!!!! thanks doc!!!!! that was so lovely and reflective
My left ear really loved this video
Wow! This is so cool to see. Thank-you for sharing 🙂
really wonderful description of ritual as we watch the ritual
Wowo wow wow this is really what i was looking for thank you
Thank you Dr. McLaughlin, I’m going to try incorporating the 5P’s when I start going into the OR.
Thank you so much Dr.!
Gripping, brave, heroic , stunning, otherworldly, stellar,earth-shattering, even vaguely interesting.
The Entry 0:13 is absolutely of a Superhero a "Real-Life" superhero.
Very cool, Doctor! You look like a high tech soldier going in to battle with all of the equipment lol.
Wow! Thank you so much!!!!! What a beautiful and helpful insight. 👏🏼🙏🏼♥️
Thank you.
My left air pod had a great time listening to this
Doctors are really great beings 🙏
Awesome, thank you for your service. The Lord is with you every step, you are not alone.
Wow...I was searching this kind of a vlog since long time...
God bless you Doc
Great Video! I have been referred to a Neurosurgeon because of my neck issues and I am a candidate for surgery. The thought of spine surgery is scary to me.
Praying for you doctor mark😊😊
Wow this is amazing ! I so appreciate you pray !
Great video, thanks for the insight.
Hats off to you sir
A hero indeed!
I’m glad he takes the time to prepare, focus, and pray. I don’t care that he washed his hands and talked to the camera. He’s supposed to start there! He didn’t take a shortcut just because we were watching. I just had a neurosurgeon fix my neck on the 20th. I pray he was this diligent. I have faith that he was. This dr can’t show all the patients or else he’d never leave. People these days are too impatient. And guess what’s next….part 2 of this day in the life.
Wow so awesome-thank you!
Thanks for sharing. :)
God bless you doctor, thank you so much for the video
Hi doc my prayers with you and all ur colleagues i really admire your gift and compassion towards mankind. I had a tumour in the pituitary gland and my doc was wonderful to. Thank you Lord. 🙏🙇♀️🛐🌺
Awesome video!
Incredible!
God bless you doctor thank you for bringing awesome for your patients
Amazing video
God bless you Doctor
God bless you always ❤️
Wow, I was nervous just watching you scrub up. Looks like a very intense career.
No shit. It's surgery... cutting open a human's inside and keeping them alive while doing it.
I want a gold Rolex too....always was fascinated by surgery - congrats on your success.
Amazing!!!!
i rate this as 9/10 as a hobby-neurosurgeon
Brain is the most powerful weapon man has, every great work start with a great planning 👌🏻
Thanks Doctor
Great, what type of magnification loupe do you recommend?
Man, I was having anxiety just watching this video!
Do you do much scoliosis surgery? I’m fused T2 - L3 with the TSRHC Cross Link System.
Awsome🔥🔥🔥
interesting! to make a difference in someone's life
I wish I had you for my neurosurgeon. The one I have now, has no preventive medicine plans. He never even discussed the test results of all the testing I had done. He doesn't take his job seriously enough!! SAD!!
LOVE IT
I would put PRAYER at the Top of your P List. God Bless you and your patients.
Of course. Because prayers to sky daddy are what help patients the most.
I have seen surgeons and other hospital staff wash their forearms and hands like Mark does in the video. Just a question, is the forearm likely to be more dirty than the biceps, or inside of the elbow joint? Or is it really just about the hands and then because it is quite easy to go further, they wash their forearms as well?
