This hits too close to home. As a sole medical intern for a private hospital I was being paged left and right even when I was still with a patient. And the next morning during rounds I would be called out in front of other residents during rounds for not answering a few pages. My credentials were questioned and I was basically endorsed to hospital staff and patients as difficult. I would go home depressed after a long shift and look at my world map on the wall and just dream of disappearing to somewhere exotic and remote where all this BS didn't exist. A few years later I did that and I have no regrets. I got out alive and happier. I don't practice medicine much now but I do miss the scientific brainstorming but not the abuse. Thanks Dr. G. Your videos are really helpful.

transplant and vascular surg units are really tough emotionally. Do it as long as you can but don't do it longer than you're able to. My MIL was a kidney pt and all the people who worked with her had a special place in her heart. My ex was a transplant/vascular surg nurse for 5 years before she left and went to TICU. It's the best karma but don't burn out. Do what you can if you can for as long as you can. It's the same as Pediatrics. Do as much good as you can while you can and it's totally cool to walk away. Families are the worst, transplants and their families imprint on you more ways than one. Being a good Doc is very important and you're doing good every day, I assure you. Keep being a good Doc but a good person first. When you know you can't go anymore that's ok. Moving on is better than being disillusioned. Stay good again.

One of my best friends is a resident and I barely hear from him-through no fault of his own. The stories he tells are scary and the hours he has to work are mind-numbing. From the outside looking in, “hazing” seems like a more accurate term than “residency.” *Edit:* For those concerned, we do keep in touch. I message him regularly to check in, hear his stories, or keep him updated on the sports/games we both follow. He calls me when he has the time. My wife is a nurse, as his my friend’s fiancée, and we are all in a group chat. He has a good support system. But I worry about the residents who don’t. The system seems genuinely broken.

The only difference is that we get twice the wellness lectures. We still write all the notes and take all the call.

We ALL need therapy... I freely admit I am one of those people who LOVES my therapist and thinks everyone should find one sometime in their life! Reach out if you need help! Don't be ashamed or embarrassed if something bothers you! Find your support! Whether it's in person or online, find it!

I agree 100%. If you're physically unwell or are having a problem that needs medical treatment, you go to a doctor. The fact that there's a stigma about getting the same kind of treatment because it's mental has the same ludicrousness as insurance companies acting like teeth and eyes are somehow not parts of your body 99% of the time.

Ignoring your mental health won’t make your problems go away. I think this comment deserves a pin. In a world where we are increasingly taught to prioritize our needs, mental and emotional health is neglected, and sometimes it really does just boils down to being kept too busy. But if we cannot care for our own well-being, then we cannot hope to function properly and build a healthier relationship with ourselves. The two go hand-in-hand, especially when you consider that our relationship with ourselves serves as a basis for how we treat other people. We deserve the same unconditional love and respect we give to others, even more so, you have to be part of your support system.

I know this is a channel about people working in medicine, but this message is something everyone needs to hear once in a while, especially if you are overworked. I try to be as friendly as I can to people where I know they have a job that's really stressful, or even in not job related things, cuz you never know when a "hey you're doing a great job, thank you!" is the one thing they needed to hear that day

Shoutout to all the Bills out there. Residency was trial by fire and there were days I felt completely lost, overworked, and overwhelmed. Another feeling was guilt because I knew my family was sacrificing for me and I couldn’t be there for them like I wanted. I love my career and can’t imagine anything else but Residency was hard. Really hard and I have mad respect for my Residents.

Had a friend go through residency and it made me glad I didn’t go to med school. That time absolutely changed him. Going in he was optimistic, happy and a good time to be around. Over time he became cynical, withdrawn and now is just unpleasant to everyone. We don’t hangout anymore after he got angry over something trivial we were talking about the last time we hung out and he told me not to contact him anymore. He finished the program not long after the disagreement but I don’t think he will ever be the same. Whatever you guys have to deal with just shattered him completely

US system needs to change. Norway medical school is six years after high school. Specialists have 1.5 years of additional training. No debt. Japan medical school is also after high school. Mostly self-employed physicians. 3000 non-profit health insurance companies. Govt and doctor reps set prices for all procedures and drugs every two years. Doctors are free to practice medicine. God bless our medical residents and doctors.
