At this point Jonathan probably could replace the entire hospital for 8 hours a day and I'd be surprised if they lost any pace. Not against any of the others, I'm just a Jonathanianist
During my opthalmology rounds, the surgeon played abit too much with the extraocular muscles and triggered the oculocardiac reflex! The patient's pulse went straight to zero, and the anesthesiologist, without a care in the world, gave a shot of atropine and went back to solve his puzzles😂. This was actually the first time I thought about going to anesthesiology, because the fact that in less then a millisecond, the anesthesiologist understood exactly what was the problem and gave the right medication without a second thought, seemed so cool to me!

🤣🤣 My mom is an anesthesiologist. She recently quit her job at the hospital and now works at a private ophthalmology clinic. The first two weeks of working there she would just come home and stare into space for half an hour, then she told me to forget pediatrics and become ophthalmologist. I can see why now

A new surgeon came into the OR today and no one knew who he was, but he had the nice leather messenger bag, a spring in his step and looked like he’d gotten a full nights sleep with his non-OR scrubs on walking down the -wrong- hall very confidently. Someone asked me who that doc was and I -knew- it had to be the ophthalmologist. He reeked of work life balance.
@@bambi_bbholic6343 Not in the medical field, but if I had to guess it's probably because surgeries in ophthalmology go faster, so if they work a whole day in ophthalmology they can't take as many breaks or do sudokus/puzzles as much, because they are more solicited than for a long surgery under general anesthesia. Like, ask any general surgeon and they'll tell you they usually never do 25 operations a day. But 25 catharacs operations seems somehow realistic. But current or ex-med students commented somewhere else that attending anesthesiologist referred to ophthalmology operations as "boring" and "nothing to learn from" events when talking to med students, so that might also be why
I’m very thankful that I get to go into the operating room with the ophthalmologist who I scribe for. But I don’t get to do nearly as much as Jonathan. I just stand in the back, do all of her documentation, then carry her from one OR to the next on my back to keep her from touching the unsterile floor.
as someone who has *had* cataract surgery... Thank the gods for good anesthesiologists. they have to do the operation while your conscious and the process is absolutely terrifying, but I was kept calm because drugs.
Glaucoma surgeries too. Anesthesiology are the ones who make sure you don't feel too much pain during one. Yes you will be high as a kite. Sometimes the lights staring into your eye while they work on you are pretty or just freaking blinding. If they screw up on said dosage, your eye will HURT LIKE HELL. (One surgery was so cool but I was so dopey the doc had to tell me to stop talking. The second surgery was what I just described about a screwup on pain management...ironically someone said I'd quoted Monty Python's 'flesh wound' line in there.) SO yeah, you want good anesthesiology people during eye surgeries...
@@jennfandrich3365 Well, the reasoning they gave me is it's much easier to make sure they are not messing it up, cheaper for bed space because you can leave within half an hour etc. So yeah I had to hold my eye open and steady while they made a small incision in my cornea with a Lazer. Then they used some kind of ultrasonic tool to go under the cornea to break up the lense. Then they used a tiny tiny suction tube to take out the pieces. They they placed in the new artificial lense, let it unfold and did something to get it to fuze to my eye. They whole time your Kinda just staring into the light. When they go in and break up your lense your vision kinda just fractures like a kaleidoscope and then goes black. No light is being focused on the optic nerve after all. When they put in the new lense it comes back, kinda. Takes a few hours of healing to be anything but a blurry mess and weeks before it's anything normal. I had to repeat the process with the other eye a few months later
Terrifying? I've had retinal detachment surgeries in both eyes which included vitrectomies and also resultant cataract surgeries all under local anaesthetic. Was the coolest thing watching from the inside. Observing the floaters I'd had in my eyes for 30 years since pre-teen being sucked away was the best thing ever. I actually said to the surgeon "oh yes, yes you got that f**ker!" as I watched one that had obscured my vision for as long as I could remember flap away in the mouth of the vacuum probe-thing. Yes, vision is real during surgery. And vitrectomy is like having your brain's interface with the world lubed, waxed and polished.
@@DiscoFang Daaang that is cool. I have a pesky floater in my left eye that turned up 2 years ago I wish could get sucked out. But it's mostly transparent so I ignore it. Yours sound WAY worse. Congrats on getting rid of those! :D
Omg this is so true. When I was on anesthesia rotation all the docs were like "follow someone else today I got boring ophthalmology cases and no airways for you"
"I'll work with the vascular surgeons. I won't even complain." Doctors around the world know this to be the most desperate bargaining plea heard in medicine. Come on, anesthesia, Ophthal didn't deserve that. Way to go Johnathan! Don't forget to log that primary case!
I worked with one ophthalmologist who would do 23-24 cases by noon. He utilized RNs for sedation and alternated between 2 surgical rooms. That is until he had a massive heart attack and slowed down to 18 cases!
@K Vascular surgeries require very close monitoring of vitals by the anaesthetist. Not much opportunity to relax. Ophthal on the other hand have very short procedure. I have seen surgeons squeeze in as many as 50-100 cataract surgeries in a day (I think the record is some 800+ surgeries in 14 hours). So before the anaesthetist opens his sudoku surgery would be done and he would have to see to the next patient.
@K Also doesn’t help that vascular surgeons work the longest hours of any discipline in medicine and do highly complex procedures that can take 10+ hrs to do, so expect to be called in frequently and never leave the hospital.
@@elsah3339 Jonathan is the Ophthalmology's Scribe i.e. his assistant. Basically a mute modern day Jeeves. Glaucomflecken lore claims that he is magical.
It’s an ophthalmology legend. Jonathan was an ophthalmologist’s scribe, so powerful and so efficient he could influence prior authorizations to approve themselves.
I'm just a dumb sack of taters from the south. But you sir are one of a kind. Accomplished ophthalmologist, cancer crusher, and astounding actor. My emotions were all over the place. Well done, very well done.
I was my mom's driver when she was getting her cataract surgery done. I was still in medical school at the time, but I already knew I was going into Anesthesiology. I remember asking her anesthetist what she'd be getting for the procedure, and when he told me, I was just like, *Wow... I never want to do opthalmology.*
Once I was doing a detachment under general at a teaching hospital and the patient woke up in the middle of the procedure and SAT UP. Anesthesia was like, “Oh sorry!” Sudoku puzzles are the worst.
When I was in school I worked across from the hospital at the lab. I had an Ophthalmologist come over mid surgery to have his labs drawn. He was a cool guy but I had never seen him in surgical scrubs so I asked him what was up. He said he was doing a surgery with Neuro but he did the first part of his surgery and they wouldn't need him again until the end of the surgery so he had time. He was always so nice and smiled all the time. My jaw dropped when he told me he was coming by mid surgery. He asked me what was wrong 😕 Dude.... you can just leave and go back in? He said " Well yeah, I just have to scrub in again before my turn" It blew my mind. I couldn't even ask him about the surgery because I couldn't fathom that you could just leave....
This is a complete shot in the dark but he probably was an oculoplastics surgeon doing a combined case with neurosurgery on some sort of apical mass or extending tumor (like a meningioma)
Visine, obviously. It's instrumental in their rebellion but they're just as vulnerable to it as anyone else. All the more reason for them to want to control the world's supply of it
I don't recall those drapes during my two glaucoma surgeries. LOL. Or I was *covered* in the drape with only my operated-on eye exposed. They knock you out for the numbing shots to your eyeball, though. Numbs almost half your face like extra-strong novocaine. Good stuff.
I'd hang two drapes if I were in that predicament. I hate everything to do with eye procedures. Retracting the eyelids gives me the heebie-jeebies. I barely can stand putting eye drops in my own eyes when they begin itching.
The funny part is that there’s really no drape in anasthesia for cataract surgery! Usually, anasthesia is draping off the head from the rest of the surgical field.
As an anesthesiologist, i find it refreshingly boring when doing Ophthalmology :) all you need is some atropine and you are good to go. the only downside is all the writing
Same! But I rather work with ophthalmologists than neurosurgeons. I hate working with people who are rude because they think they’re better than anyone else and are always screaming at students and residents.
@@gabrielarc5998 Totally! I'm an australian anesthesiologist and worked NZ, UK, Ireland-all neurosurgeons are the same. My friend had a theory it was a magnet for narcissists (the whole "brain surgeon" thing). The only exception was paediatric neurosurg where the nice-ness of paediatric surgeons cancels it out
I am a circulator and people think I am crazy but I love working with our ophthalmologist. I could do cataract surgery all day!!! It’s a busy day but goes by quickly!!!
I saw an ophthalmologist the other day and it took all my strength to refrain from asking for her Jonathan. I started asking at least three times and had to choke the words down.
I'm a scribe. Johnathon always being silent is very accurate because we aren't allowed to talk to the patients. We're just there. We usually have the knowledge that doctors do but we can't practice medicine.
I had two cross linking operations for my keratoconus and the ophthalmologist DID take a break mid operations to talk about e-bikes with the tech guy! No worries tho, Mr. Laser was taking care of me!
how was that operation? I was recently diagnosed with keratoconus but the ophthalmologist didn't even bring up that option for me, just wanted me to come back later to see if it got worse or not.
@@davidfarnham5623 it's standard practice! I got my first diagnosis for keratoconus only on the left eye and they told me that it needed to be operated right away since it was rapidly worsening The right eye presented some indication of keratoconus but it was not as bad as the left one, so they did not operate on that After the operation, I went for yearly check up on both eyes After 5 years from the first operation, my ophthalmologist suggested to operate also the right eye, since keratoconus was slowly creeping in So don't worry, surgery is not the only viable solution, sometimes the problem is not prominent enough to justify a procedure Also, if you'll happen to have a cross linking operation, don't be scare since it's a painless procedure
I'm not a medical worker but work in a hospital, your shorts usually got a chuckle out of me but this one legit made me lol, the ophthalmologist always have crazy number of surgery in a day
This was one of the first videos from this channel I watched and I was so confused... good thing YT recommended me this one again, now with greater knowledge of the characters :D
watching (more like listening) to this while recovering from eye surgery is delightful. my surgeon does something like 10 strabismus operations in a day, one after another--honestly kind of nuts. kudos to the anesthesiologists who made getting my extraocular muscles rearranged a relatively pleasant experience, all things considered.
The fact that I immediately knew who was the one operating in Ophthalmology’s stead makes me happy; I watched so much of your content that I cannot separate Jonathan from Ophthalmology either 😂
I have zero relation with anything related to Medicine, but I am bingeing on these videos like nobody's business. ✊✊✊ I might send a couple of specific ones to a student of mine who (very begrudgingly) works in health insurance (here in Europe)...
And the plot thickens! I can’t wait to see how this rolls out in the long run. Thanks for all the great videos and the great work you do. Keep up all the great work on and away from the camera. Take care and peace.
@@RKNancy in general, most of anesthesia’s work is at the beginning and end of a case with mostly monitoring during the rest of it. The stereotype is they can sit and work on their sudokus during that time. If they are turning over a patient every hour, they are actually doing a lot of work that day.
@@RKNancy what would you choose. 5 surgeries per day where you can just sit through 80% of them. Or 25 surgeries where you have to constantly be up and running.
It is not just the hours. Vasculopaths are the some of the sickest patients in the hospital and anesthesia for those surgeries are very complex where you are constantly doing something or the other - placing lines, titrating pressors up and down to keep hemodynamics stable, transfusing blood etc - so they are very involved cases anesthesia wise. So yes it is quite bold.
Yes!!! I just subscribed so this is the first time I have gotten to be here when the video drops. I absolutely love anesthesia but Jonathan operating made me howl! 🤣🤣🤣
Screaming my OR shoe covers off! ROFLMAO! I can relate. Was RN CNOR CO COT for Eye Service at teaching hospital OR. Fast turn around of cases. Your talented,creative and morph into each character seamlessly. Great content!

Honestly at this point I'd feel more comfortable with Jonathan treating me than the ophthalmologist
I'd trust Jonathan to preform any medical procedure on me

how was that operation? I was recently diagnosed with keratoconus but the ophthalmologist didn't even bring up that option for me, just wanted me to come back later to see if it got worse or not.
@@davidfarnham5623 it's standard practice! I got my first diagnosis for keratoconus only on the left eye and they told me that it needed to be operated right away since it was rapidly worsening
The right eye presented some indication of keratoconus but it was not as bad as the left one, so they did not operate on that
After the operation, I went for yearly check up on both eyes
After 5 years from the first operation, my ophthalmologist suggested to operate also the right eye, since keratoconus was slowly creeping in
So don't worry, surgery is not the only viable solution, sometimes the problem is not prominent enough to justify a procedure
Also, if you'll happen to have a cross linking operation, don't be scare since it's a painless procedure
I'm not a medical worker but work in a hospital, your shorts usually got a chuckle out of me but this one legit made me lol, the ophthalmologist always have crazy number of surgery in a day
This was one of the first videos from this channel I watched and I was so confused... good thing YT recommended me this one again, now with greater knowledge of the characters :D
Congradulations on the new PA position Johnathan!
watching (more like listening) to this while recovering from eye surgery is delightful. my surgeon does something like 10 strabismus operations in a day, one after another--honestly kind of nuts. kudos to the anesthesiologists who made getting my extraocular muscles rearranged a relatively pleasant experience, all things considered.
Great video from the doctor.
As an anesthesiologist... You are top! You do not like an ophthalmologist... you're one of us! 🤣💚
The fact that I immediately knew who was the one operating in Ophthalmology’s stead makes me happy; I watched so much of your content that I cannot separate Jonathan from Ophthalmology either 😂
Your vids make my day so much better. I just knew it was Jonathan! You bring joy to so many people. Thank you so much. Take care. ☺
“You’re always taking breaks I thought I’d try it out” lmfao
"I am an ophtalmologist" it's like " because I'm Batman", you just can't argue with that
This is perfect! The dreaded eyeball room! Yikes! Thanks for the great belly laugh!
I have zero relation with anything related to Medicine, but I am bingeing on these videos like nobody's business. ✊✊✊ I might send a couple of specific ones to a student of mine who (very begrudgingly) works in health insurance (here in Europe)...
I just enjoy that all of his characters are so distinct that with one head nod we all knew it was Jonathan lol
Lolololool...the ophthalmologist's dead smile broke me😂😂
I just instinctively nodded the same time Johnathan did.
Love the videos! High quality as always!
And the plot thickens!
I can’t wait to see how this rolls out in the long run.
Thanks for all the great videos and the great work you do. Keep up all the great work on and away from the camera. Take care and peace.
I didnt expect to see Jonathan behind the drapes hahahaha XD
I'm a cath lab nurse and that line about the extra versed took me out 😄 🤣
Yes!!...the determined eyes, the Johnathan nod ...we are at safe hands!!:D
That pay off was perfect! I've watched this a few times now and it still makes me laugh! Thank you
Next thing you know Jonathan will be in Anesthesias place!😂😂
Jonathan is a fully fledged doctor at this point, he ain't just a scribe no more
So awesome! Particularly loved the 1mg versed dose and “permission” to add 0.5 😂.
I just started working as a scribe in the ED. I've been practicing my Jonathan nod every day 😂
Saw the punchline coming a mile away... still killed me. 😆😂🤣
Jonathan's operating now! Glad to see he's moving up in the world of loyal scribes
That last nod fulfilled everything I wanted in life
In the end, it has always been Jonathan.
This video was great! I laughed out loud pretty hard. Thank you
Loving you’re anesthesia videos! Please do many more. I can’t get enough of them.
You know you've seen enough of these when you know what that nod means without any words lol
Thank you for making these, they absolutely make my day and make me laugh every damn time. You are probably the best influencer/doctor ever
I’m sure Jonathan is a perfectly qualified ophthalmologic surgeon
I KNEW IT !!!!!! HE CAN DO ANYTHING !!! ALL THE HAIL THE JONATHAN REVOLUTION !!!! 🤣🧡
I saw the punchline coming and I still cracked up laughing. Jonathan gets me every time.
Jhonathan is the best surgeon we could ever ask for id trust him to do my cateracts
Very bold of anesthesia to choose a 4-6+hr vascular surgery over ophthalmology ones.
I heard laser surgeries are over in like minutes. I heard Cataract are over in less than an hour. Isn't that a good thing for Anesthesia?
@@RKNancy in general, most of anesthesia’s work is at the beginning and end of a case with mostly monitoring during the rest of it. The stereotype is they can sit and work on their sudokus during that time. If they are turning over a patient every hour, they are actually doing a lot of work that day.
@@RKNancy what would you choose. 5 surgeries per day where you can just sit through 80% of them. Or 25 surgeries where you have to constantly be up and running.
It is not just the hours. Vasculopaths are the some of the sickest patients in the hospital and anesthesia for those surgeries are very complex where you are constantly doing something or the other - placing lines, titrating pressors up and down to keep hemodynamics stable, transfusing blood etc - so they are very involved cases anesthesia wise. So yes it is quite bold.
That nod from Jonathan is so satisfying,love your videos !
Yes!!! I just subscribed so this is the first time I have gotten to be here when the video drops. I absolutely love anesthesia but Jonathan operating made me howl! 🤣🤣🤣
I've been trained. Any time Jonathan comes in screen, I have to nod at him.
I don't normally laugh out loud but watching this made me giddy and laugh out loud. 😁
Jonathan truly is magic.
Screaming my OR shoe covers off! ROFLMAO! I can relate. Was RN CNOR CO COT for Eye Service at teaching hospital OR. Fast turn around of cases. Your talented,creative and morph into each character seamlessly. Great content!
Johnathan saves the day!!
What does Anesthesiologist know about Jonathan that we don't? What is making him so afraid??
The fact that a medical scribe who is not (officially) licensed to do surgeries is operating on a patient while the certified surgeon is taking a break?
@@ada5851 is Opthalmologist really scared too?!? How far reaching are the powers of Jonathan???
Amazing! Love all your characters, but Jonathan takes the cake 😂
Love the look in Johnathan's eyes, he's conquering the OR! 😂
I think ECT could try to rival the lack of breaks for anaesthesiologists. We had 8 patients in an out in less than two hours.
So true ! When you prefer go to vascular surgery, it's the real sign of the despair 😂
I love these videos! And I love that they’re just done at home with simple props. Just awesome!
Jonathan! He’s probably the most rounded scribe ever! 😂😂😂
