Thanks for your take - I read this article the other week! I was really interested in seeing how students can become MUCH more efficient and specific in applying to residency based on scores, honors and pubs. Wish there was a better system in place...Difference between thousands of dollars for med students!!!
Orthos love me!!!! I’ve had well over 50 plus knee surgeries. I’m 45 and have had both knees replaced. Sports kills your body but ortho has always been fascinating for me.
Great information Antonio! You are doing such a great service preparing aspiring students for what to expect during this medical school journey. I applaud and thank you!
I'm a second year studying for Step 1, I'm probably not gonna be AOA but I've got a lot of ortho specific research. This video and article are very encouraging.
I'm interested to see the whether there was a correlation between matching into ortho and non-academic attributes, such as physical appearance (height, build/physique, former college athlete/military) and social media presence (Instagram, UA-cam).
I believe this is my calling. It’s so encouraging to see this. I’ll be starting pre med in the fall . If you have any advice or particular playlist for undergrads I would appreciate it . I’m doing a major in mechanical engineering while taking my pre med pre req.
Thanks for sharing the article. Can't wait to start med school in August!! By the way, your book, Ovecoming the Odds, is amazing! I hope to reach the point you are in your career in a few years!
This is the first one I plan on showing her I've been following for a while so I can help her, she is in a direct admission program and this is her last year of it. Thanks Doc.
@@ricardorodriguesrr18 Well, he is happy. I am guessing it was a dream that he fulfilled. Congrats to him, because you only have one life, and he is doing what he had always wanted to do.
Hello Dr. Webb hope you and your family are safe. I was wondering if you can do a video on online college courses vs in class college courses and what med schools think about the two. If you have any information on using the GI bill for med school also that would be helpful. Thank you Dr. Webb I have been watching your videos ever since I was in the U.S Army in 2015.
I’m not American i know it will difficult for me to get matching for Ortho... that’s why I apply to internal medicine or pathology while I’m doing my surgery residency in the Caribbean.
Really enjoy the talks, from what I have read it is quite a bit different here in Aus with how you go about getting onto a training pathway. What would be your pointers for maximising chances of getting onto a training pathway in Aus?
hi Dr Webb. this video was super explanatory and I thank you for that. I am a medical student in Brazil and started to study for usmle. Ortho surgery is one of my options for surgery. the usa process is very different from brazil and it scares me a little. what advice would you give to an international student (who is in the second year - equivalent to the end of the second year of you guys from med school- and intends to do step 1 in 2021? here are 6 years of medicine, 2 of basic materials, 2 of medical and practical materials 2. I intend to do step 1 at the beginning of the 3rd year.)
("I smashed and then bulged my L3/L4 disc a little over five months ago, but the spondyloarthropathic L1 'subluxated' back in 2011 which I recently found is called spondylolisthesis. That happened simply from overexerting, the vertabrae likely giving way a bit and infecting, and then three weeks later 'subluxating' altogether...")("the chiropractors just did a job on me, 30+ adjustments, and I think they herniated the L3/L4 disc as well as disjojnting one of the vertebrae inbetween the L1 and L3 with one-sided lower torso twists...")
The US system seems over-complicated, yet sensible at the same time, seemingly lowering chances of any nepotism and favourism, besides of course the constant financial bias. It's even more complicated in Poland,and don't even get me started on attempting to transfer.. But damn, I thought it would be enough to do one handed push ups and bring the senior a gift-wrapped super fancy kettlebells to ace an interview? 😂 Or at most, demonstrate my proficiency with various saws and hammers, ability to hold a leg for 8 hours and enough strength to set a joint 😶😊 (Or,as it is what many ortho bro's do out of kindness in my primary training hospital - lusted after by a large amount of female staff for their combination of muscle,brain and compassion - ability to gently transfer even the most frail - or heavy - patients. ) One of the orthopedic surgeons made me believe in love at first sight long before I decided to change careers and pursue medicine when, while finishing writing consult notes in the ER for my shattered foot, he ran out to effortlessly pick up an elderly lady who has fallen in the corridor and despite her confusing him with her son and soiling herself, he treated her with not only dignity (which unfortunately is a rare case for Polish ER'S especially for older patients and those that display psychiatric or neurological symptoms 😞) but also immense empathy and kindness, going out of his way to provide her with a safe and private place to lie down (there was barely any sitting room..) and female nurse's assistance with cleaning up and change of clothes (without yelling trough entire corridor,like other doctors did and still do ...) - it wasn't his patient,or anyone's patient yet. He helped my mother with getting treatment after,in the same hospital, a too tight cast damaged her nerves, admitting that his senior colleague made a mistake. If only he didn't have a wife 😂 I wonder how often do female patients hit on their doctors! I'm glad there's more and more importance placed upon patient communication,ethics and more training regarding patient comfort and dignity. Thanks for the insight and advice, Doc! We appreciate it 🙏
Hey Dr. Webb, I've been following this other youtuber through her adventure to becoming a PA. Here youtube is "Adanna the PA", y'all should do a collaboration video. Also, thank you so much for your content, it is helping me a lot.
Please stop being so obessed about competetiveness. I feel like you only went ortho because its competitive and it pays well not because you were super into it.
ParsleY it’s likely that he enjoys it and likes it, what’s wrong with him getting into it if he’s in it for the compensation? Dr. Webb is clearly competent, good surgeon, and worked his ass off to get there
ParsleY the interviewers know that the lifestyle and pay for ortho. It's a competitive field for more reasons than that but ignoring those two things is setting you up to come across as disingenuous. I think his transparency about that stuff is very reassuring, because while salary and lifestyle aren't the main things I'm looking for in a specialty they are there and when I think about it, it does add. Also prestige is a big part of specialty selection for some people. I respect that.

Consistently good content. I’m about to start college for pre-med and you’re honestly one of my biggest role models in medicine!
Ortho is my target speciality! Hope I get into it!
Did you??

Great breakdown of the match process and the process of matching itself!
YESS FINALLY Been waiting for this video for so long!
I'm a second year studying for Step 1, I'm probably not gonna be AOA but I've got a lot of ortho specific research. This video and article are very encouraging.
Thanks Ryan! Good luck!
They could do a follow-up study to see how having a social media (Instagram, UA-cam, etc) presence would affect entry
Kaylen Howard now that’s a good one ! Because I definitely think social media plays a role with this situation

Hello Dr. Webb, I would like to know your opinion about the lifestyle of orthopedic surgeons based on their sub specialty.
My oldest wants to go into Ortho, she starts in August for Med School.
Awesome! Good luck to her. Def share some of the videos from the channel with her.
This is the first one I plan on showing her
I've been following for a while so I can help her, she is in a direct admission program and this is her last year of it. Thanks Doc.
If only I had this early on in med school
When will I be interviewed by you. I follow your channel haha
@@steveguzman375 lolz. He's gonna be a great doctor one day, bro.
@@stephenugochukwu9472 only if he answers me lol. Also, cool name Stephen :)
@@steveguzman375 lol, thanks bro
Dr Webb thankyou for the great advice🙏✝️🕊😀❤💯
Now this video comes out! 25 years too late! Anesthesiologist for 25 years instead 😂😂😂!
ultramet I don’t think it’s too late for ya
ultramet do you at least like anesthesia?
One of my classmate started Medical School when he was 56. He is now a doctor, "Family Practice". It's never too late.
@@epp.5593 is it still worth family medicine? With all nurse practitioner and PA the job market seems very saturated .
@@ricardorodriguesrr18 Well, he is happy. I am guessing it was a dream that he fulfilled. Congrats to him, because you only have one life, and he is doing what he had always wanted to do.
Thanks so much for the advice!
Very informative, thank you!
Love the videos
Hello Dr. Webb hope you and your family are safe. I was wondering if you can do a video on online college courses vs in class college courses and what med schools think about the two. If you have any information on using the GI bill for med school also that would be helpful. Thank you Dr. Webb I have been watching your videos ever since I was in the U.S Army in 2015.
Can we get a reupload of this video since alot of things have changed.
I am an IMG, do you think I can qualify for orthopedic residency?
Can you make a video on how the process is different for IMG ... Pls..
I’m not American i know it will difficult for me to get matching for Ortho... that’s why I apply to internal medicine or pathology while I’m doing my surgery residency in the Caribbean.
Really enjoy the talks, from what I have read it is quite a bit different here in Aus with how you go about getting onto a training pathway. What would be your pointers for maximising chances of getting onto a training pathway in Aus?
What is the mean no. Of abstracts presentation and publication you had before match
Lots of gratitude Sir 🙏 for your valuable vdeo.. is there any benefit of learning spanish while applying to orthopedic residency in California?
Thanks, I was really looking for a video like this. Can you do how to get into different fellowships?
hi Dr Webb. this video was super explanatory and I thank you for that. I am a medical student in Brazil and started to study for usmle.

But how do I match to neonatal left pituitary robotic surgery?
lol?
Hello Dr Webb, please can a general surgeon do a fellowship program in orthopedic spine. Thank you
Dr Webb I need to see you react to the RingDinger!

Surprised by the difficulty of dermatology residency.
I'm an Orthopaedic technician in the Caribbean what is the process for me if I wanted to work in the u.k
thanks for this
is there an integrated pediatric surgery residency program ?
Can you talk about why you choose spine fellowship over other fellowships like sports medicine?
Hi Aliyan, this video may help! ua-cam.com/video/HodgejJxjUI/v-deo.html
How about matching into spine after ortho Dr. Webb, do you have or can you make a video on that?
These may help

Antonio J. Webb, M.D. Thank you Dr. Webb, your help is very appreciated. Stay amazing!
Very informative! Thank you for this thorough explainer!
Thanks!!
Where can I find this article?
Dr. Webb, What are the chances of a D.O. matching into orthopedic surgery?
It’s possible. I know quite a few
I will check it out and see. But focused.
Hey Dr. Webb, i have been having back pain for a while now, and i do have scoliosis. It can be pretty painful. What is your opinion on this?
