    Great video! Thanks for sharing. We need more surgeons out there with your attitude. Currently an M3 contemplating if surgery is for me.

    Love this. This is such a hard decision to make. I still need more information about each specialty.

    I am so i this moment! I also crochet, do lettering and I also draw! I actually completely avoided the idea at the beginning but then I actually found it really interesting and I have such great mentors! But I am still scared of doing it and I am still unsure

    Did you make a video on how you chose the right program? I have heard horror stories about choosing a program and it being a nightmare and then trying to switch is another nightmare.It seems like you need to [pick your right program from the start]. Newly subscribed!
    Also, if you haven't, could you make a video covering the need of General Surgeons? Is this specialty still in demand? Especially in rural areas? How to get great training so you can work in a rural area?

    Would you say that Cardio or general surgery has more interesting cases?

    • @donavanpham
      @donavanpham  4 роки тому +5

      Depends what you're interested in - most of the time you're gonna see bread and butter cases regardless of specialty, but there will always be interesting cases

      Amazon! Quality is decent, but good enough

      @@donavanpham I SECOND THIS! I was actually thinking about buying the same one prior to MD school! I am thinking about General Surgery OR CardioThoracic. Are you considering a fellowship afterwards? If so, what? And I agree! I am like obsessed with it! I have surgical books. watch lots of procedures,etc. I love surgery because I need the rush WHILE using my hands and also I would get to see results relatively quickly compared to some other specialties.
