My father was a Internal medicine doctor . He was in the frontline passed away from Covid. I hope to become a doctor like him He absolutely loved his job and he was so humble and caring. He went the extra mile for all his patients he didnt have favourites. He was just that kind of man that didn’t care of materialistic possessions but just supported his family out of poverty and was a father figure for many. Internal medicine is a very demanding specialty he had almost no rest but he died for what he believed in Thats what I truly believe. He knew the sacrifices that came with people a doctor. R.I.P papi❤️

omg med schoool insiders is the best at putting information in an understandable and useful manner. huge fan !!!!

Would love to see So You Want to Be a Pediatrician, OB/GYN, and Hematologist/Oncologist

*puts a lot of time and effort into making a really pleasing and informative video* all the comments: but what about the specialty I wanted!!😤

I’ve always wanted to be in internal medicine. Ideally I want to sub-specialize in Rheumatology and act as a primary care doctor for those with more complex case files… autoimmune disease, chronic illnesses, etc. My parents both passed away when I was young (at different times) of a combination of unusual disorders and I watched how much they were ignored, passed off, and even accused of being crazy. I want to be a patient advocate: teaching people how to be informed about their care and also harassing specialists basically. I also couldn’t imagine a life where I’m not constantly learning and also constantly arguing with people. So. It fits

I am an IM resident in Boston right now, and this video is 100% spot on.

FINALLY the video I was waiting for. Nobody every talks about general internal medicine in depth and its the kind of doctor I think I want to be!

I'm an endocrinologist, practicing for quite a while now. We generally handle a LOT of diabetes mellitus and thyroid cases, but the most interesting or challenging ones are the most uncommon, e.g. pituitary or adrenal disorders, and disorders of sexual differentiation.

Future doctors like here. 👨🏻‍⚕️

I am currently working as an MA, and work with internal medicine doctors. I have to say I absolutely love these videos.

This video came in such a good time. I can't wait for a pediatrician one Edit: 4 months later. I chose Infectious Disease. In my country it’s a 5 year residency program with internal medicine rotation. So yeah

Better lifestyle though. I’m for it. 7days off 7 days on. Surgeons you can keep your money I’ll take 250k and with multiple days off and no on calls. Life is good.

Talk about the difference between hematology oncology and radiology oncology. Would love to see a “so you want to be an oncologist”

so you want to be Kevin Jubbal

"So you want to be an Oncologist", por favor 👀

We want"so you want to be"a Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgeon (ent surgeon) Like this please

Can you do a Internal med part 2 and cover the other fellowships? Rheumatology, Endocrine, Allergy etc

As a previous IM doctor and current Cardiology fellow , IM is the Specialty that you don't want to stuck in for many reasons : - Every one expect you to be perfect in each aspect in medicine , which is impossible , you can't master a subspecialty where others practicing it for years. - If the case of the patient is complex and had many comorbidities with bad prognosis , they want you to take care of it and every specialty take their hands of apart from useless consultation like " nothing from our side " , while when case is straight forward and easy to treat they will fight you to take it . - when they stuck in a complex case they would tell you " Deal with it , you are the internist -with yellow smile -" despite it is even more difficult to you , while when it is easy they become heroes infront of the patient family . - Salary of IM is less comparing to other specialty , life quality is terrible , and the worst of all , other subspecialty are rasict when it comes to comparation to you ,(they see you inferior to them just because you are IM, even patient don't trust you "the general doctor" when they can seek subspecialty ). Internal medicine is a lie other specialties use to get ride of dirty work and huge amount of study , logically there should be no Internal medicine in modern medicine , GPs and Family medicine Ds are enough ,My advice as a doctor who suffered from IM , just make your IM a way to subspecialty fellowship

U provide information that's rare on KZfaq. Thank you so much sir. Your channel is really important for medical students to get thorough idea about so many topics that reading a book won't provide.🙏

I'm an avid watcher of your channel and I'm not even pre-med, but pre-nursing! But now thanks to this vid, neurology (specifically neuro-critical care), has skyrocketed up in my top list of possible specialties I'd like to go into. Also suffering from chronic and very painful migraines and receiving such effective and compassionate care from my neurologist, neurology has a special place in my heart.

So you want to be a neurologist would be great

“So you want to be a Family Medicine Doctor” PLEASEEEE

The thumbnail has the look of a BORED certified diagnostician

"So you want to be a Pathologist" pleaseeeee

Superb and humble presentation. Long time ago I requested you to speak on this topic and finally you fulfilled my wish. Thank you so much.

Doctor House in the thumbnail!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Since not a lot of other people are saying it, and instead just barking requests...GREAT VIDEO! It was really informative

I wanted to be an internal medicine doctor but the more I rotate the less I want to do it. It's because of the patients. I spent some time at general internal medicine ward and usually I saw old, very sick patients. E.g. - 70 y.o. Lady with strong obesity, BMI above 40, after 2 infarctions and 2 strokes, asthma, hypertension and diabetes. She comes with some exacerbation of her disease. So now what. What would you do? I saw doctors thinking and working so hard but what do you want to do with patient like this? Nothing. You can moderate her health condition but usually you will see her again in a few months. So that's why I've started thinking about other speciality. Internal medicine is great if we speak about theory. The processes in our body etc...are great. But being an internist means treating mainly old, sick patients with very bad outcome. So I started to think about other specialities with younger patiens like ob/gyn.

There is no KZfaqr like you funny, kind, you give good information about medicine, best KZfaqr I have ever!!

I never thank you enough for this series. Specially for this video.

13:13 Is that guy charting? Why is he so happy?

I am a internist and I do all the procedures call mom ultrasound all of it and also intubations. I also do ventilator management. The possibilities are endless. But it is true that it’s mostly intellectual. But I also do love hands-on procedures. I also enjoy critical care and I do a lot of it at my hospital. More than half of my patients are critical care patients. We don’t have an intensivist and I don’t know how they would be more helpful. Since I already do all the procedures and vent management. It is a truly awesome specialty.

This channel really is the best. THANK YOU!!!

Thank you so much. I was waiting for this video for so long. Thanks again.

Plz do a "so u want to be a" on gastroenterology 🙏👍

I can relate, being an internist myself. Thank you for this video. ☺️ I am hoping to do a reaction video of this, hopefully I am allowed to. Thanks

I love IM, but I hate dealing with the social issues, paperwork, etc. It's ridiculous. Anyway, there's no perfect specialty. (Not even derm!) Every specialty has its pros and cons. But I'd pick a specialty where you like the pros and where the cons aren't that much of a con for you. (Everyone is different regarding what they like and dislike.) Money and lifestyle are important factors, but don't focus solely on money and lifestyle because these could change in the future. After all, both our major political parties - i.e. Democrats and Republicans - want to reform our healthcare system. Plus there already forces at work which are changing our healthcare landscape (e.g. big healthcare systems buying out private groups and making physicians their employees; midlevel providers like nurse practioners and physician assistants expanding their role and scope of practice in our healthcare system, which may mean, say, 1 physician "supervising" multiple midlevels, so there's less need for physicians, but more need for midlevels; just look at how CRNAs are carving out anesthesiology as a specialty with nurses even being able to practice entirely independently from physician supervision in many states). In short, there are no guarantees about the future for physicians. Currently procedural specialties tend to be paid much better than non-procedural specialties, but who knows what the future holds? We could all end up working many more hours for much less pay than today. Just do what you find most interesting and what you can stomach and hope for the best. Personally, I was between IM and anesthesiology. I'll likely aim for pulmonary and critical care as a subspecialty.

you guys are godsent! thanks for making this video

Never was interested in going for Medicine, yet I enjoy this guys' episodes for some reason.

I HAVE THE SAME STORY AS YOU. I have Crohns and had similar experience and that’s what brought me to wanting to be either a pediatrician or gastroenterologist! That’s so cool!

Thank you Dr. Jubbal for covering IM! 💖 Hopefully you'll be able to make a video for Rheumatology soon. Much love.

In india 1.4 billion population we are only 104 family medicine residents every year... Means post mbbs ( med school ) only 104 new family physician are going to start as family medicine in 140 million population of india.. Proud to be a family physician.. Proud to serve humanity 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Would love to see "so you want to be an obstetrician/gynecologist"!!

This was such a great video! Future GI doc here!

I would love to watch a “So you want to be a infectious disease doctor”

Neurologists be like: „are we a joke to you?“

*_So you want to be a surgical oncologist loading.....👀_*

This is great thanks so much! Please do Infectious Diseases next if you can! Also if you could do a video on missionary medicine I think that would be amazing! I can’t find a ton of information out there on it and practicing in third world countries is one of the main motivators for me wanting to follow the MD/DO route!

Now I'm drawn towards Internal medicine. I admire that they know much about almost everything. Initially, it was Emergency med but looks like the tension and stress + hardly ever sitting may not be for me😅

You should definitely do family medicine! Thank you for always putting out great content

amazing video! good job. Cant wait for neurology. BTW everything else besides the so you want to be series is also just as good. Love the content!

Can you do nephrology? I was interested in knowing more about this!

Can you make a video on your timeline. The road to your success starting from your first college year until now. Maybe making a part 2 or 3 to get into more detail on why you did things and get into more detail.

1:32 : ..those who WANT to be heavily involved with direct patient care.. House: Wait wait, let me introduce myself again!

Is that Dr House on the thumbnail?

Did anyone know that in Belgium (my country) a nephrologist earns nearly €700k and in the USA, most earn $200k+. Salaries of doctors can vary extremely around the entire world, very interesting...

Please do So I want to be an Infectious disease speciality plsss

Do ENT!!!! It is so fascinating and many people don’t know about it!

Please release “so u want to be an infectious disease doctor” PLEASE

Internal Medicine.... is the crown jewel of medicine... it's the best and most fascinating

What's the difference between Family med and internal med

Could you do a So You Want To Be a Pain Management Doctor please? I’ve planned to become one, but I am slightly confused about the pathway leading towards it...

Great video Dr. Jubbal and team!

I passed as an IM resident.. Thanks for the insight

Loving this series!

So you want to be a pathologist would be great! I feel like it's a specialty most people don't think about!

YES, INTERNAL MEDICINE, THIS IS ME, I FOUND MY SPECIALITY, IT‘S FUCKEN BEAUTIFUL

Internal medicine was not something I was contemplating at all, until I realized you only work HALF THE YEAR! Why is that not talked about more? 2 weeks on and 2 weeks off, or more commonly around me is 1 on and 1 off... what other medical specialty only works half the year!? That is huge!

Yes I want to be a doctor 💊❤️

Amazing work as always. Can you give us oncology next? I’ll watch it if it’s 10 minutes or 10 hours

Whoop whoop! Thank you

We need a “so you want to be a pediatrician”

Wanted to read comments about people who are interested in IM and are striving to be a IM doctor; unfortunately, nearly all the comments are just suggestions for a next video😔

This is the way I want to go. It would be great to a video on subspecialties of other specialties

The so you want to be is the kind of videos I prefer. Thank you for making thoses videos! Have greats holidays! (Sorry for yhr english, i'm living in the province of Québec)

I watch these videos every night so i can wake up motivated in the morning 😂😂

Thank you so much... I have been awaiting this video for so long!!! Thank you for doing for my anticipated field of specialty 😍😍😍

Thanks for the video...i get a clearer understanding from this....keep up the great work....

This is literally exactly the job i was looking for 💖💖💖

Clinical pharmacology would be awesome.

I would love to see a "So you want to be an Intensivist" video!

I too was confused about picking up a particular specialty. Thanks u

I waited long for this one!! Make one about neurology pls!!!!!!!

*_Great content as always Dr. Jubbal! Keep it up!!_*
