Do not rely on videos for in depth details on a certain topic. Use the videos as a guide to understand the basic picture & concept behind that particular topic. Always read textbooks to improve your knowledge. And gather information from reliable web sites like "Medscape", "Pubmed", And "CDC". Find the latest guidelines & articles published by healthcare experts, and study them. Good luck, Future doctors!
