So You Want to Be an EMERGENCY MEDICINE DOCTOR [Ep. 9]

You left out the part were Urgent Care Physicians routinely transfer patients out with simple diagnoses to their larger partnering hospital for even more insurance claims. No insurance? No transfer.

So you want to be a PHARMACOLOGIST please

How about a similar series for nurses and dentists, considering they also have a really wide variety of specialties?

MS2 rn. EM was already the number #1 seed (I'm biased as a paramedic), but with some other top seeds too. Still, you got me at the "always doing something" gig

Love it

I want to match into this so bad, but im so afraid of Mid-Level creep cry😅

This video was very helpful. Thank you so much.

I hope I can possibly do this one day I’m not sure though
I’m 15 when I was 6 I saw somebody fall off a building and they got an arterial bleed on their head I helped them and got an ambulance
Once the ambulance was with them I walked halfway to were I was going and fainted so hopefully I would have gotten over that

Still think EM docs are “the best on everything”. Prestige ZERO, but everything else 100!

Do a video on aneasthisiology

EM or Trauma surgeon is way to go for me i will update in 4 years how everything turned out

I had the privilege of shadowing an emergency medicine physician at one of the best hospitals in the US. Let me tell you, one of the smartest, most genuine, and humble guys you’ll ever meet. A little bit intimidating being premed knowing I’m speaking to a guy with knowledge and expertise far beyond what I could dream of. At this hospital, which i also work at as a PCA, they rotate working in EVERY department in the ED. For anyone with knowledge of EDs you know just how different each department can be and how impressive it is to go from treating someone who just got hit by a train to someone with chest pain in the same week. These guys are so brilliant AND personable. They have to think on their feet, be the final decision makers on life altering decisions, and lead everyone around them. Obviously the nurses, residents, and PAs are brilliant in their own right however, being THE GUY everyone turns to in the most dire and stressful circumstances is a privilege we have in the medical field. These doctors work hard to get to where they are at but I do believe some are just born for it. Jack of all trades is a great description. Their brain is build different 🧠

Doc what's the best specialty for you

All of Med School Insider's videos are great fun to watch. As an Emergency Physician, I can of course speak with some authority only regarding the video on Emergency Medicine. The Emergency Medicine video is absolutely spot on correct in every detail with the exception of the comment about "jack of all trades, master of none". Truly, think about what the performance of an internist or a surgeon (or for that matter a physician of any other specialty) would be if required to fill in for an emergency physician for even one shift in a busy ER. The master of the trade for the Emergency Physician is that of the rapidly changing challenges presented during every shift. This is best defined in this video by the comment regarding the fact that the Emergency Physican truly never knows what is coming within the next few minutes. Mastering and thriving in the ER environment is the mastering of a very significant trade. Thank you for your work, Med School Insider. You are a treasure for all of those who are considering a career in medicine as well as for all of those who are practicing medicine. That is quite an accomplishment.

Dr. J, I would love a difference on Critical Care and Internal Medicine and what they do.

I am in a High School right know. I want to be ED. I really love this job. I hope that this will never change.

Jack of all trades, Master of time!
