Many people don't realize how time consuming being a KZfaq creator actually is. And if you are posting every week it really is like running a business. Props to you for making it this far, even with everything else you've had to juggle away from KZfaq.

There's nothing wrong with taking a little break. You definitely deserve it😁

So sorry to hear about your creative conflicts, happy to see you back for a vid! You’re my favourite Dr Cellini!

Thank you for the realness and vulnerability here bro. You are one of the people on social that I can’t wait to meet in real life. I feel like we’d vibe. Totally understand feeling the burn and taking some time off. I do that from time to time and constantly find myself doubting which direction to take. For me, I’d love to see more videos about finance !

As an intern I’d like to see different specialties talk about what went into their attending contracts: community, academic, locums, fellowship or not, etc

Please. Continue ,go on I am a pediatrician ,and your personality even your situations and your mindset affects me and my way of thinking so much It is rare to find doctors. On KZfaq sharing their life and experiences honestly like you

As a retired RN I love anything related to being a health care worker. Guess I miss the action!

🥑 sooo glad your not leaving. Loved your trip to Spain video. I found all your content interesting and informative. Being a retired nurse in dialysis I find the behind the scenes my fav. Thank you for all you do!

Avocado! Hi Dr Cellini, I'm happy you're not quitting, you are so not the type to quit!!! Good for you taking a break! I appreciate you do content when you already have a full time job outside social media. I know YT, IG all these social media channels are now driven by their 'algorhythms' I'm not a content creator, but they annoy me as a sub/follower! I wish it would stop with that and allow variety from all over! I love your travel videos, but would love to see you and your wife trying new restaurants, favorite restaurants. I know you guys are foodies, sort of? Your take on strange things going on, etc. Any content I'm happy to see it!!! Best to you Doc!!!

🥑 As an aspiring Radiologist, what I've been waiting for on your channel for a couple of years is a real "day in the life" video. I mean hearing everything is cool, but here's what I mean: planning a busy day ahead with a couple of interesting cases and then putting a GoPro around your neck for a whole day doing these cases and comprising it in a 10 minute fast-forwarded video. I know the behind the cameras legal side of it could mean a real headache, but that would be awesome for us all that see interventional radiology as our goal.

Sorry to see you go. Thanks for what you taught us.

Nothing wrong with taking a break!! We are here to support you through the ebs and flows!

Avocado 🥑🥑🥑Hello. As requested, personally I would love to see videos of you making cocktails, sharing recipes and techniques. Like you did a video on sangria two years ago.😃 Also, I would love to see videos that explain in a little more detail the main interventions you do and their purpose, without going too deep but to understand your job and what is possible to do in IR.... but I am aware that this is certainly not of interest to your whole community. Have fun golfing ⛳️.and of course your break is so well deserved. Take care of yourself

Hope you don’t leave KZfaq…..even if you produce less videos, please don’t leave KZfaq!

🥑 I would love to see procedures being performed and all the education that comes with that.

Glad you're back! Love to see your travels - day in your life and a little of your "boring" hospital job! Really enjoy your videos.

Gotta put yourself and your health first, always! Your channel is part of the reason I’m transitioning to a Diagnostic Radiologist that works remotely/from home to avoid getting burnt out working in a hospital.

Thanks for making this channel! I'm a medical student and I've been tuning in and out over the past 2 years and found that your content was very well-made with great research into your topics. Glad to see that you're taking a break and prioritizing wellness and other aspects of your life and hope you find your second wind :)

🥑 I can sympathize with burnout because I did that several times while I was in the service. It consumes you to the point of bringing you down and then you start bad habits. Mine affected my sleep which also lead to my being late constantly. In short you take the time you need for yourself and get your head on straight again. You deserve a break to give your mind time to recover. Lastly you can do more meme reaction videos. There are so many out there and taking the time to laugh will help with your mental health as well

🥑 I would like to see more videos of you on the golf course like you did a little while ago. It was very laid back and showed a more relaxed side of you! Even if you just pick some random medical/travel/finance topic and run with it for the video, I would still listen/watch.

I love how you're so honest. Your awesome 👌 I like how u broke out of the box. They shouldn't put you in a box at all. Yes u sure did need a break we understand this. I love how u do a little of everything. I could never get tired of u. Oh I can see u loving ❤️ golf! Stay safe enjoy every second of life!

Dr Cellini! I am a Cardiac Nurse in Calgary and love your channel. Burnout can be dangerous but it seems you have a good plan moving forward. I love the actual shift videos and how patients present and the outcome although it is tricky with how much you can share. I really enjoyed the last video I watched about the Nursing Home incident and it is helpful to bring awareness to this as it is a common issue. The medical system needs a huge overhaul and the more reasoned voices advocating the facts in a balanced way the better! Keep up the good work. Richard

Appreciate the honesty. It is incredibly difficult to be a doctor (two full times jobs) and then do medical KZfaq (third job). Burn out is real. I've been hard on myself for not keeping up, but it helps to hear that other docs have the same challenges. This topic needs more attention. Thanks for all that you do.

You don’t have to explain why you can’t handle being a KZfaq creator while also being a board certified radiologist. It is a tough job with dealing with tough cases and being on call a lot. I hope you find the time to relax, and not feel the need to post KZfaq videos for us, but do it if YOU want to. My dad actually worked with you in UNC as he is an attending at vascular surgery.( he also watch the vascular surgery video you made and loved it 😂)Good luck with what’s ahead of you! 😊

I’m glad you took some time for you. I love your channel. I also love how relatable you come across.

Your KZfaq upload schedule has always been insane! I think we all understand if you need to take breaks. Just makes it even better when you do release a video ☺️

I enjoy all your content and appreciate the time it takes to create . Find your balance and remember to take care of yourself first. Side note - I am a nurse at a NC hospital -I was sitting charting at the nurses station, a fellow nurse was trying to contact someone via Vocera, and I heard “Micheal Cellini”-

Things in New Jersey, DITL, show us the beach, how are you guys enjoying your Audis, trips, Adriana, medical advice, etc…

My favorite are your day in the life videos. Videos of your life with your wife. You two are the best!

🥑 I personally love your day in the life vlogs and always have! Also, personally I follow many KZfaq channels so I'm not offended whatsoever that you havent posted in awhile. I'm in the med school app process so I'm busy, I have all my videos saved to watch for whenever I do dishes or clean lol. So seriously, do you! Do not stress this youtube stuff.

Hi Dr. Cellini! Im glad you took a break from YT. It can be so time consuming to be an attending and do YT at the same time. I think it would be interesting to see if you can talk about interesting cases, interesting stories from patients or even have other doctors on your channel and ask them questions in regards to their practice.

🥑 would love to see more day in the life videos including things outside of work! The questions video on the golf course was great!

I've enjoyed your authenticity...walk in peace..you will be rewarded🌻

As a guy with a small channel it’s a huge commitment! Totally understand the struggle ! Keep it up man

🥑🥑🥑 Working in the healthcare field, I love to watch videos about diseases, treatments, cases you found… something like that. I love the reactions also. I know a lot of people do it, but the way you explain/react is different and special! I wish you the best!

Avocado 🥑 I have a lot of health issues including cancer and have really started enjoying medical channels and learning all I can. I would like to see either videos where you answer viewers questions or videos where you explain the different procedures you perform! Anyway thanks for all your hard work. I couldn’t imagine being a doctor bc it takes a lot of work especially the ones who care. I have gotten a call from one of my docs at 7:30 at night so I know it’s crazy! I for one appreciate greatly your hard work!

I'd like to know what it takes to balance your work, leisure and relationship. What tools do you use to find time to spend with your wife, and how time management plays a role in all 3 of those fields I mentioned. I am a pre-PA student, with one year left before applying to PA school and have a significant road ahead of me. Thank you . Also I'd like to see videos on how you and Andriana stay active and healthy

I think I'm about a year or so behind you in my medical training. I'm a Nephrologist and loved watching your videos during my training. I wondered how you had the time to do it all! I was also curious as to how your videos would change once you became an attending. I'm not at all surprised by this video and thank you so much for being vulnerable and honest. And....wow, I'm impressed that you are choosing to move forward with your channel. Whatever you ultimately decide, know that you have made a positive difference for all of us in medicine. You have my ultimate respect!

Thanks for this video Dr. Cellini! I'd be interested in seeing videos on these topics if you ever have interest in them! - Things you learned as a KZfaqr and advice for others following a similar path (I'm a first year medical student and a new KZfaqr). - Educational videos on IR. I enjoy the educational content you put on your IG stories and would love some longer videos on those topics!

Oh Dr. Cellini, retired BSN here. I'm always happy to see your videos, anything you give us will make me happy. But I understand. You are wonderful and the best thing on KZfaq today. God bless you.

I agree with you 100% Dr. Cellini. KZfaq is a full time job. The only consolation is, if you truly enjoy creating content, then the reward comes from seeing how many peoples' lives you have impacted positively. I'm sure we will all enjoy any content you make in the future. Good luck!

Avocado, Just do what you feel like. I will follow your videos. I love the mixture of a bit of this and that

Would love to see more educational content love your content and your sincerity keep it up Dr. Cellini ! 🥑

Avacado. So glad you are sharing this. Too bad KZfaq doesn't make the connection between your content and medical school stuff. I think you provide so much insight. Deep dives are great. Analyzing unusual cases. Something different would be including your nurses and how they impact what you do.

Im actually so glad that ur gna keep posting. Thank you!!

Hi! I’m a first year medical student and looking into interventional radiology in part because of you and your channel! I personally would like to see what your life is like as an IR doc in private practice because it gives me a window into what my career could look like if I decide to go with IR. You may think it’s boring, but for someone like me, it’s super informative.

🥑 Anything that you like doing really. If that is related to radiology, medicine in general, travel or hobbies etc. matters less. Feel free to mix it up!

Hi Dr Cellini!! 👋 daily vlogs are interesting.Also medical malpractice cases!!!

🥑 day in the lifes and travel vlogs are awersome seeing what you and your wife do in your free time

Hi Michael! yes, continue what you are doing! We will be there! Day in the life, Vlog, Trips.

Avocado!!! I understand your changing, we are changing as viewers too! You can still do day in the life, the reaction videos are really news talk show stuff, and ok as long as you don't over do it. I want to see crazy cases and your regular seasonal life travels, etc. I will live vicariously through your travel videos. Almost reality TV stuff, but your thoughts, not some network editor. Love the channel and totally understand the summer break stuff!

Avocado keep hitting us with the Dr. financial advice as I’m an M1. I also want to see you talk about what good directions to go are, as NP and PA are taking over everything… no offense to the misses…

MIA - Glad to see you´re back. Maverick.

Mikey Mike - no worries - follow your passions. Avocado- how did you get into golfing? What are your 5 favorite courses to play at? How about a sand castle? Does reading IR images help with visualize the best shot since you read patterns on xrays? Sidenote: my brother golf's and it does take up alot of time.

It's like a therapy session without being asked any questions, you are the daily therapist on everyday life. We pull ourselves up to the table and you spill the beans on whatever you feel, we just sit back and enjoy. I would be really sad if you left KZfaq. I do enjoy all the medical since I work in a Urologist office. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

I love your day in the life blogs. Anything to do with medical stuff. I just really enjoy any videos you out up. Glad your back!!

🥑 Sorry to hear about your dilemma. My suggestion would be to explain what you see when reading an x-ray. I don't know if you can show actual xrays. I go to the DR. and he/she shows an xray I've had taken. He/she then points out the abnormality, I nod, and that's it. I'd love to better understand what I'm looking at instead a picture with various shades of grey.

Maybe you could do some shorts on you scoring college swim/dive meets or a series on positions/ roles in a hospital people don't know about

🥑 Video options: marriage-what keeps it strong, how to communicate better with your spouse, how to find balance and fit in self care, etc. more investing, finance or credit card advice. Traveling tips. Another fun video with your brother who is a vet, maybe embarrassing childhood stuff haha tips on how to be a great medical provider.

🥑 Hey, glad to see you back! Sounds like you totally needed that rest, beach, and golf. No apologies needed! I'm interested in more medical news and videos that help us understand how medicine/hospitals/healthcare works.

I like day in the life videos the most when they have some actual medical information on them, like explaining in a more detailed way how and why a certain procedure is performed or explaining some disease. I also liked your finance videos! Diversity is fun even if the algorithm doesn't like it 😅

Dr. Cellini, I really appreciate your content! It has given me so much help in preparing for a profession in medicine. I agree that balance is paramount and if you need a break, or to not do KZfaq anymore, I feel like it should always be a much a higher priority for anyone to spend time with family and the nearest friends. If it allows for enough balance in life, though, we'd love to learn more from your expertise. And it's not like we're going anywhere :) (for example this is me watching this a year later) so there isn't a rush to create more. Some content ideas if the time comes: I'd love to learn more about residency spots and the trend of them growing or decreasing. I would also love to learn even more about AI and its current and projected interactions with radiology specifically. I'm currently in medical school trying to decide between diagnostic neuroradiology or neuro-ophthalmology. But also very interested in IR. I received advice from an interventional radiologist that artificial general intelligence honestly could decrease demand for radiologists within 20 years (I will finally finish a fellowship in 9 years, so 20 years is at least relevant). I know you have created videos about this and I have watched them and really enjoyed the perspectives shared. I wanted to see if you would have any updates based on AGI and its effects on the demand and economy of it all. And also some more specifics of the ways AI is improving the field. I'd love to learn about the business aspect of running or owning a practice. I'm almost finished with a healthcare education focused MBA as well and I constantly seek any opportunities to learn about the intersection between managing a practice and increasing the ability to help as many patients as possible by being organized and efficient. Eventually I plan to create a medical school or a residency that incorporates faith into the education. I'd be interested in your thoughts about whether it could be a good thing or a bad thing (of course its nuanced) to create more medical school spots or residency spots (effects on salary of physicians and therefore decreasing the amount of people applying to become a doctor given the sacrifice and debt). And even thoughts about incorporating humanities into medical school education, or the viability of having a faith-based education or practice (like at Liberty or BYU - my undergrad was at Brigham Young University and I loved the incorporation of Christ and religious texts and history/humanities about the human body for example when learning neuroscience or ophthalmology ("the light of the body is the eye" - Sermon on the Mount/Matthew 6), in the curriculum). Creating more residency spots on the other hand could really reach more people desperate for care too. I'd also love to learn more about humanitarian opportunities, like imaging or cruise ship cataracts, etc. for different specialties, a topic that doesn't seem to have been discussed in other videos from KZfaqrs. Again, thank you for creating this awesome channel!

Real estate basics and how you manage properties as a full time physician would be a neat video.

I think you should do videos about policies and how it affects physicians. You could also bring other doctors and have conversations about medical practice, its challenges and its opportunities.

🥑🥑 As an IR tech, I would love to see a breakdown of some cases. Anything educational would be great. Love your channel and the Cellini Rounds Podcast!!

I also have another video idea that almost no one does; a breakdown of what you did each year in residency. How much did the role changed year to year. How much does the scope of practice change and what not. 🥑

I enjoy the family, including extended, relationships, life videos.

Avocado 🥑! I like day in the life of a intervention Radiologist, react video’s and research videos.

Well said my man. I’m still working on my short game. And my long game. And that middle part

Avocado 🥑!! I like day in the life, you and Adrianna Q&A’s, and when you tackle big stories/ headlines regarding the medical field! I love getting your inside opinion.

- Day in the life 😁 even if it’s not exciting ☺️ Or complex. - How you destress/wellness as a radiologist (golf, wife time, beach )

Avocado. I would like to see some content from Athens that shows you enjoying the city and our great football team. Wishing you all the best and look forward to your return.

Yo man do your thing, nbd if you're takin breaks here and there. I'll keep watching whenever you do post

I'd love to see a podcast type videos on your current interests, like getting people on and discussing topics like finance as a doctor, work life balance current medical news, life lessons you learned over the course of you training etc. Ive seen others mention commentary style videos (like reacting to things) and day in life videos on things you like to do before during and after work that would be really cool aswell

avocado. How about some homestyle cooking, barbequing, driving to places/weekend drives, dining out/take out food reviews, drives to the city, day of day off/relaxing content, just to name a few or more.

Just do once a week video, a little longer? Please don't quit, it's been super fun to watch you guys. Nurse student.

🥑 whatever you feel inspired to. You have such an analytical and charismatic way of speaking that is nice to watch your videos. Even doing the trendy things, yours will be way better. 👏🏻

This is the first of your videos I have watched for quite some time although I used to watch and eagerly await your new content. I hadn’t realised why until watching you today. I began to feel that it was now a business for you rather than you sharing your passion as it was when I started watching. I feel you were becoming what you thought would attract viewers rather than being your self which attracted me in the first place. I only watched this today because it came up and not sure if I will follow in future xxxx

I will literally watch anything that you post!! AVOCADOOOOO!! Reaction videos, day in the life, weekend vlogs, Q&A, etc. I’d literally watch you cook random foods too lol

We understand you're extremely busy you're a doctor after all take care of your self first

I think your doing the right thing. As a behavioral mental health psych major and work full time to pay for it & although I appreciate your content as it helps me pressed forward and keep going, but I hadn’t even realized it’s been 2 months since your last u tube Balance your time as you do your $$ and you’ll be fine. 👍🏻

🥑, I’m a FM intern in NJ, I’d love to see u do little weekend getaways/ activities at fun spots so I’d know where to go for my rare golden weekends haha. Otherwise giving physician specific financial advice is always good: how to prep for buying a house, what goes into agreeing to join a practice after graduation etc. loved your video where u bought/ renovated that house with your brothers

🥑 i really loved watching your day in the life videos and would love to see more (even if you say its not as exciting). It would be also cool to see your day in the life videos focusing on golf - it doesn’t have to be medical related!

Avocado- I think that using your expertise to the benefit of the widest audience would be best. I would suggest you continue to explain what IR options exist for various medical conditions. For example, I recently saw your video on alternatives for prostate surgery. I can honestly say that I have never heard of any of these and for the hundreds of thousands of men facing various prostate issues, this is great information that they can then discuss with their doctors and or IR's in their area. I'm sure that there must be hundreds of procedures that could be alternatives to surgery or the more radical procedures.

Avocado. I’d like to see videos on the nitty-gritty and technicalities of the business side of your practice.

🥑 I enjoy the reaction videos or videos about current medical news because you bring a perspective that I don’t know about. You also present scientific data and research, and I prefer to get my information from someone who knows what they are talking about. I would also like to see some collaborations with other types of doctors and how, as a team of physicians, you work together. For example, how do you and gynecology work together? Or ophthalmology? Finally, I enjoy learning medicine from you. So maybe videos where we can ask you medical questions beforehand and you can try to answer them. I find people have lots of medical questions but Webmd them, and then they start freaking out that the thumb they jammed in a door is a sign of some type of incurable disease.

Dr.Cellini I like your videos I like how you break out because doctors are so much more than just our physicians you guys are so talented with other things. Like dirty dancing can’t put you in a corner. Thanks 🙏

missed ya! but ya gotta take a break when you're burning out. stay well and hope you get new docs in your practice to ease the stress.

🥑 we enjoy them all…no preference, just keep doing you. So articulate with a good sense of humor and your mama raised you well. 🤩. Miss the wife, and sometimes wonder when/how/what you eat. How can you not have bought a candy bar? Thanks for keeping up the great work. 🌻😻👍

I am an OG follower and I like all your videos. I love your deep dive videos into cases. I also like your day in the life (especially the travel ones with your beautiful wife making an appearance!!)I also have enjoyed your q&a videos as well. I love your personality and you just being you. I also really enjoy your podcast with your brothers!! I also enjoy the videos that you and Dr. Jim have created!! I have missed you and am glad you are back, although you definitely deserved a break. I have just waited somewhat patiently for you to come back!! You are one of my favorite creators, so happy you are back!!

As a MSII I would like to see more content about financial side of medicine, lifestyle in medicine, finding a job after residency, work life balance, ectera.

Hi there! As a medical student i would like to see more content from you in the future! You really inspired me through difficult times man! I would suggest a new series about tips and tricks in the beginning of your carreer. What should u do and what u shouldn’t as a young physician. Also what Did u do through residency that prepared u for this carreer. And i m talking about daily important habits that changed the way u think and act.

I follow a MD who only posts once per month. Burnout sucks, but at least you’re making a lot of money while doing your job!

Avocado! I have always enjoyed your content Dr. Cellini and you have motivated me countless times to keep pushing through medical school. I am in my 4th year currently and there is light at the end of the tunnel! I have always enjoyed the DITL videos and any interesting case studies. I also really appreciate the videos where you break down how to quickly read a study and little things to look out for! I appreciate you sir and hope you and your wife are doing well. God bless you!

🥑🥑🥑 I'd love to see more Q&A's, travel vids, 10 things you can't live without, Doctor Look-book

They all hated me. Eventually, they closed down KZfaq in Spring 2023 for April Fools' Day and everyone left, except me.

Stay strong…..your videos are great

🥑 Glad you are back!

You have done some videos in the past which focused on finances, which I'm not sure how the view count on these videos did, but I would like some financial advice as it pertains to student loans, contract negotiations, etc. You seem to have good knowledge in this area, based on previous videos I have seen, and I think a lot of people could benefit from financial advice. Thanks for your hard work.

For me personally, I like vacation videos. I realize you can’t go on vacation all the time, but day trips in your area on the weekends ( when your not playing golf )could be fun to watch.
