I think it's still worth it to be a surgeon. Instead of seeing it as "ay haba naman 6 years" I see it as "6 years lang yan ng buhay ko haha" I think it's worth the investment since you'll continue to learn more.
@@DocRome sir ako rin po, my dream is to be GS. paki confirm nga lang po kung tamaaa, bali 14-15 years po noh bago maging general surgeon? ganun po ba unn?
Thanks for this, Doc! Very informative. Aspiring med student here coming from a pre-law "pre-med" so I'm trying to learn everything I can about the field
Hi doc thank you for uploading this on your youtube! I really want to become a surgeon here in the Philippines, its just I dont have enough background about the medical field especially when it comes to becoming a surgeon here. Thank you for giving me some free tips and information- coming from a professional doctor, I'm really grateful. It really helped me think twice and this vid motivated me more. Thank you very much, hoping for more vids to come and I hope to see you when I become a doctor soon 😁
Hello Doc, I wanted to ask what is a consortium? Also, about the integrated plastics residency program, can you have the gen surg training from another hospital or does it need to be the same hospital where the 3 years for plastics training will ensue? Thank you so much Doc! 😊
Responding to a call to be a surgeon may take a lot but I believe it always will be worth it to be one. Aside from the duration, may other factors lang talaga why it’s a struggle. Came across your video today and it’s very timely since I’m rekindling my fire for pursuing Medsch and Sx. Thankful for your videos, Doc!
Hello, doc! Too late na ba para mag comment sa video na to? Haha. Anyway. Doc I'm just confused. If GS takes about 5 years in general, but only 2 yrs if to specialize in Urology, does it mean I have to be decided of my subspecialty for GS before I enrol myself to it?
Hi doc. Ask lang po , will there be a demand of surgeons nationwide ? Very competitive din po ba yung path na ito? How about Internationally po, do it offer more opportunities? Thanks ahead po ♡♡
Hello my name is Peter. Nice to meet you. I am from indonesia. Excuse me can you please share the information for foreign medical residency programme? Thank you
Doc Rome, what kind of doctor should I consult? Since May this year, every time I lie down to rest or sleep, I feel dizzy for around a minute, as in like the wall and ceiling are moving. It happens every night/day.☹️😢
Doc question po: since pag residency although youre training for your specialization pero diba parang work na din yan? Natanong ko po kasi as a second year medical student under a scholarship, I am obliged to do a 4 year return service. If I can manage to reduce my time of service I will definitely apply for scholarships and do masters sana or phd agad pag pwede na lumabas. If yung specialization na gusto ko is general surgery, tas say I only finished 2 years so far, can I pick up where I left off? Kasi nga magmamasters po ako. Or di po yun pwede? Na dapat tuloy tuloy? The reason for the rush din po kasi i am not sure if I am still eligible for scholarships once I hit my 40s. Eh Im 27 na po and by the time I graduate Ill be in my 30s. Original plan is to go masters muna after the license pero may return service din po kasi, which is for my case baka 4 years. Looking forward po for your advice on the matter. Thanks po doc!
Hi im an incoming college and still havent decided on what to take po I just want to ask how long does it take to become a cardiothoracic surgeon. And if taking med is practical especially if you want to work abroad po. Thank you!
I'm currently a grade 8 student and time goes on really fast , I want to become a Neurosurgeon ... what courses should we take for senior highschool and since tuiton is high are there anyways to have it for less money?

Sana in the future may Day in the Life naman ng mga colleagues mo po in the surgery field like Plastics, TCVS, Trauma, etc. so they can tell us about the process of being that type of surgeon (like in Med School Insiders' "So You Want to Be") in the Philippine education system setting, so us aspiring surgeons will have a handle!
