- So you want to be a neurologist. You like the idea of the brain, knowing all of its intricacies, and the idea of being a brainiac yourself. Let's debunk the public perception myths, and give it to you straight. This is the reality of neurology.

i want to be a neurologist because i grew up with a childhood absence epilepsy disorder, and i know what it's like to be a neurology patient. hopefully i can provide my patients with quality care based on my knowledge and previous experience as a patient. i am only in 9th grade, but with me luck with my studies!
you go !! good luck
GO GETEM ТIGЕR
Give it all you got buddy💪🏽😤
I AM TGE SAMEEE THING IN THE SAME GARDE
I am in grade 8 good luck man
My father has had 2 strokes and he’s still alive and perfectly fine. SO MUCH RESPECT for neurologists ❤️
Awww🥺
Neuro surgeons*
@@nikalobjanidze5302 he was treated by a neurologist NOT a neurosurgeon.
@@ayeshakhilji2831 Well, you know better. I said that, because stroke is very serious pathology that can easily damage brain and surgery is essential... that's it❣I am happy your father made it through...
@@nikalobjanidze5302 you’re absolutely right! It sometimes does require surgery but in our case it didn’t that’s why I clarified. 😊❤️ and thank you so much 😊
OH MY GOD IT’S FINALLY HEREEE 😭😭😭💃🏻
🇵🇰 Where are you from 🇮🇳
I know right
I also have been waiting for this😀😍

I’ve been a neurologist for 20 years, did EMG fellowship. Mostly clinic-based, took my share of stroke call and hospital rounding every 4-6 weeks. In a general neurology practice, in addition to headaches there is a great deal of low back and neck pain. Lots of dizziness, syncope. Many people referred with vague symptoms like weakness and numbness in any and every location. Video does very nice job overall,but leaves out these outpatient conditions. I also in fact a lot of Botox, Mostly for chronic migraine. In a community hospital, most common reason for referral is encephalopathy, meaning the patient is not waking up or confused. More than half the time, it’s just a matter of too much sedative medication. The part about conditions being progressively worsening is definitely true, in particular I see a great deal of Parkinson’s disease and have known for many years. Same is true for Alzheimer’s. It is emotionally tough to see patients and families deal with the progression. That’s my two cents.
Is there a chronic migraine
I am 15 and since 10 iam having headache every day doctor what to do
@@lunalovegood8774 Chronic migraine can begin quite early. If you are having headaches every day at your age, referral to a pediatric neurologist is certainly reasonable.
@@chien-yeliu7491 taken appointment of neurologist 👍🏼
@@chien-yeliu7491 I want to be a nuerologist and I want to know how many years it take to become onee
In the US, college is typically 4 years. Med school 4 years. 1 year internship, 3 years neurology residency. Many, not all, will do fellowship of 1-2 years before your first attending physician position. In other countries, may be shorter as college and medical training is combined 6 year program.
"Time is brain" explains our stress in the hospital. Please think twice before entering neurology specialty. It definetly can be rewarding but always keep in mind that you might lose patients just because you were too slow.
True, i recommend reading henry marsh memoir, he is a neurosurgeon
A slow doctor is always better AND faster than no doctor at all.
I agree neurology or frankly almost any medical career is extremely stressful. You need to have the right kind of thinking, motivation, and ability to keep calm in order to succeed. But failures will always happen. Shaming and blaming yourself/doctors for them rather than learning and improving is a bigger waste of time. We desperately need more neurologists; there's never enough of them.
@@whazatt236”a slow doctor is always better and faster than no doctor at all” I’ll always remember this.
@@whazatt236Very well said.
I have been a neurologist for 30 years and consider it the best job in the world. That being said, the emotional tool af seeing chronically ill patients can be draining. This was a great video, but you forgot one of the most challenging, rewarding and complex disease , multiple sclerosis. We have over 20 medicines on the market for MS, which requires thorough knowledge of the immune system as well as the nervous system. Rapid advances in all areas make the learning curve very steep, so get ready for a lot of reading to stay current. The reason it is the best job in the world is that, while you can’t cure many people, you can improve the quality of life of the majority of patients, and you rely on your intellect to do it. At last you get rewarded for being a nerd, and since most of the guys who used to pick on you are either digging ditches or dead, you have a good deal of respect in the medical community and in general.
@@drderelict7987 Alot
How do you find the lifestyle?
My cousin has ms and I know how challenging it can be. 😅thanks for sharing
May I ask, if a 40-year-old patient was referred to you complaining of numb fingers and hands with a history of neurosurgery as a child, and again neurosurgery as a teenager, would you at some point order a brain MRI?
Hello sir.
I got chance on Neurology (Fcps) this july 2023
I choose this subject,but now i am not happy about neurology as i Heard that neurologist can't cure patient
If u give me some example of diseases that neurologist can cure,then i will get some motivation on my post graduation on neurology
Future neurologist here ! Wish me good luck !!
God bless I pray everything goes well in Jesus name ! It’s been 3 years I just seen this comment so hope it’s going well !
“So you want to be an obstetrician and gynecologist .” PLEASEEE !!
Week 999 of us asking...ONE DAY
YES
YES PLEASE
please I'm literally begging
@@yvefrancois5928 I’m starting to think Dr. Jubbal had past beef w/ an ob/GYN is taking it out on us now. 😂
Me(a law student): idk what is going on but i like it.
Studying commerce 11th, 'I'll still watch that'
I can't believe I'm just about to start my residency in neurology in Italy and he releases this video now!!! And I'm exactly like the stereotype he describes OMFG
Omg! I'm so happy for you💜💜💜
@Sweet But Psycho a neurologist is 4 years and a neurosurgeon is 7 years
@Sweet But Psycho No, 4 years in college, then 4 years in medical school, and then 7 years as a resident neurosurgeon after medical school
can foreign student go to residency in Italy?
How did it go? What r u doing now?
I am just 11 years old but I am planning for my future from now, I am going to be a neurologist. It is my dream, I literally know everything about nervous system and a lot about brain, and I am going to be a neurologist.
best of luck my dude, you'll go places with a mindset like that at your age
@@Kosm2599 thanks. I am still working and I always hope for best
I hear you with this, but never forget to open your mind to other things. When I was 11 I wanted to be a teacher, I now want to be an Epileptologist and I'm 18 now. Open yourself up to other options, you never know what you like until you try
@@ziagochenaur2980 well said, ill be sure to explore
im 8 yo and ALREADY learning about the heart (i wanna be a cardiologist)
edit: now i was 8 yo, im 10 now. i just wanted to say that i hope you persue you dreams and pull through.
This is the most awaited episode of this series
May you please please do “So you want to be a pediatrician”. There’s not that much videos about pediatricians on UA-cam. 😞
I second this!!
I third this!!
I AGREEEEE
PREACHHHH
Yes please!
Love how Med School Insiders explains it so well and in-depth 😍❤️
Thank you so much! I have been patiently waiting on this video to see if neurology is a specialty that I want to look into. 🍀🍀🍀
THANK YOU, YOU'RE ONE OF THE ONLY YOUTUEBRS THAT ACTUALLY LISTENS. THANKS
No way those Neurologist you named were in my department of care when I was at UC Irvine Medical Center!!! By far the best neurologist center I’ve ever been too! They were all soo sweet, charismatic, and charming towards me. Explaining every detail of my seizures with ease. I loved it all so much that I’m now going to school to someday become a neurologist myself ♥️ I love the brain 🧠
Just yesterday I was hoping that you would make an episode on neurologists and today,here it is THANK YOU
Finally the video I was waiting for!
Thank you, you got me rid of the last bit of doubt concerning my future specialty
I really love neuroscience and I want to study it as my major, but for the longest time, I wasn't too sure what exactly I wanted to do as a career. I was always kind of in between if I'd like to work as a neurologist or a psychiatrist because I don't know if it's the mental aspect or the physiological aspect that intrigues me the most regarding the nervous system. However, after watching the videos of the two careers, I've found myself to like psychiatry more than neurology, but I certainly am not too sure yet. hell, I'm only 17 years old, I'm sure I'll figure it out soon 😭

have you heard of behavioural neurology or neuropsychology?
@@abhaya7b yeah! but I’ve actually decided to pursue optometry instead 😅
Have you considered neuropsychiatry?
Neuropsychiatry is a bet of both❤ neurology and psychiatric
Thank you for this video! NOW I am 100% confident that I want to specialize in Neurology!
I'd be very interested in seeing "so you want to be a pathologist." I don't see many videos on this specialty and I would love to learn more about it! Love your videos!
my dad is a neurosurgeon, im so proud of him. he doesn't care about the money at all he just love his job and love spending time with his family. in the past my dad got a lot of job offers in Dubai England australia and usa. He did say yes, but is was not because of the big pay rise, but because he wanted to learn more about his specialty. My dad is rich yeah but goddamn he can be cheap sometimes. he could go out and buy an expensive designer bag, but instead he's going to hm and buying a normal 10 dollars bag. yeah im from Denmark my English suck
Your dad sounds awesome and it's wonderful to know that he is truly happy with his job and enjoying time with his family!!
My dads an alcoholic
My dads an alcoholic
@@Yoozybear pray
Hey! I’m thinking about going into neurosurgery but i’ve been contemplating it because I wasn’t sure how time consuming it would be. Because I really love the brain and the study of it, so I think I would really love the job, but the reason I wouldn’t do it is because I wouldn’t have time for my family and just my life as much (this is what i’ve been told). So I was just wondering about your opinion and how often your dad has time for your family?
I cannot thank you enough for doing this channel and this video. God bless you.
Anyone else still watch these even though their fav specialty has already been done? 😂
yep! I was waiting for Sports Medicine which he made a few weeks ago now. And I'm still watching lol
Yep, it's really interesting to hear
Yeah, dermatology, although allergists would also be interesting
@@marcobodt9750 i want to be a dermatologist too.
I know i will be tho its my passion 🤣✌
@@TylerRokNoob same, I have severe eczema so I hope to become a derm or allergist as I’m passionate
I'm so excited to see '' So you want to be a GENERAL SURGEON '' 🙏🏻 , and thanks for all your videos 😊 .
Dr. Jubbal, thank you!! Eagerly anticipated this video!
Yesss! I've been waiting for this video for so long! Applying to Neuro residency :)
With regards to strokes, here in the UK, it’s a specialty all by itself. Neurologists often treat these patients, but in many hospitals geriatricians take charge of caring for these patients. You can also specialise in it as a cardiologist or clinical pharmacologist.
Thank you so much! I've been waiting for this!!!!
Pathology, Nephrology, Oncology, Rheumatology are ones I would like to see if possible!
My toughest course in med1 was head, neck and basic neuroscience --> went to the exam barely having studied half of the required material. We had like 35 chapters for the final which we learned in the course of 3 weeks which is a crazy short duration! Didn't have time to study at all. Hopefully neuro in med2 will be easier since from my understanding there is no anatomy lab in the second year.
Head and neck😭🤯
Can you do a video on “How Psychology, Psychiatry, Behavioral Science, Neuroscience and Neurology are connected and similar to each other.
I've been looking forward to this for a long time
I'd just liked a comment on another video saying you should make this...and boom....it popped up on my notification like magic lol
Wonderful Insight Dr. Jubball, thank you
This was so helpful!! Thank you SOO MUCH!!
“So you want to be a pediatric surgeon”
I would LOVE to see this video!!!
Yes I would love to see this video too🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Always have respect for Kevin Jubbal sir
Thank you so much for this!!!
Thank you for these videos! I LOVE psychology but more the childhood-written developments, not the more scientific stuff like labs and actual surgery. It’s nice to be realistic with where I could go in life
Interesting field! Even it needs lot of dedication
Thanks for uploading this I have been waiting for this Doc, haha it's my request 😀😍😍❤️
Informative as always. Thanks!
6:41 "you'll be reading EEGs " *shows CT images*
Some comments about this specialty:
- Forgot to mention Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI). At the VA, Neurologist and Psychologist have teamed together to help veterans with TBI's. Because the physical and mental side (PTSD) are linked together in this injury.
- Greatest advancement in treatment in Neurology is non-pharmaceutical. Instead using motor actions or vestibular stimulation can help repair parts of the brain. See the Carrack Institute and functional neurology. Drugs they are finding are now doing more harm then good.
- My favorite Neurologist was also my Chiropractor (See DACNB). He fits the personalty profile you mentioned here as well!
Great video as always though!
When I grow up I want to be a neurologist and this is one step closer to my dreams thank you med school
Been waiting for this for soooo long’
YAAAAAS DR. Jubbal be like "Your wish is my command."
Thank you so much! This video helped a lot
Straight to the point, I like!
It’s time for a video on NP full practice authority and the “studies” that are being cited. I honestly don’t know if there is a more important subject in medicine right now.
Can you do "SO YOU WANT TO BE A NEONATOLOGIST" pleaaseee😁🌟
Please do a "So You Want To Be a Physiatrist". Thank you for everything you do.
”so you want to be an INFECTIOUS DISEASE 🦠 specialist?”
Bruh y'all keep asking him for different specialties but you should know that it takes time for him to make all of them....
@@vijayapillai8826 he says ask for more .
@@vijayapillai8826 no one is negating this.....but he literally asks what people want to see next 💀. Just think a little next time.

Can you do “so you want to be an ob/gyn?” or can you do a video discussing fellowships after residency?
While you are wanting for the specific video on residency and fellowships, the channel has some videos that make references to this in the meantime!
I know that he has done a general video on the steps to be a doctor that touches upon this in his premed roadmap video!
In addition, the first episode of “So you want to be goes a bit through the process”.
Each episode of this series also goes into possible fellowship opportunities.
im 18 and i would love to be a neurologist! I had my first seizure at 16 and since then i’ve had 3, all grand mal. Instead of finding it super scary i found it super fascinating. This is absolutely my dream career
Great video. I would like to request ”So you want to be a Preventive Medicine doctor” as the next video!
Thanks for this amazing video❤️
The amount of love I have for this channel is priceless ong!
Yess it's finally here thanks doctor
5:39 that describes me perfectly and I am a med student who interested in neurology and psychology.
so you want to be a general surgeon please!! love your videos btw!!!!
Yay!! Thanks med school insiders
Love this series
YAY NEW EPISODE!❤️
This was great! Thank you! Can you do a So You Want to Be A Pediatric Neurologist? I would love that.
We're working on this topic! :D
Love your videos! I pray I’ll be a great doctor one day.!
Let’s vote for that ENT video in the next poll. It’s a super competitive surgical specialty with high compensation, but doesn’t have much substantial information on the internet.
Yet another medical specialty I'm interested in becoming. If or when I become a doctor. Wish me luck!
I would love to see a video on physician scientists!!
I want to study the brain, and learn facts about it but i knew medicine wasn’t my main focus. I wanted to study the brain and contribute into furthering our knowledge of it. But I think this is as good as it’s going to get. I want to study the brain but also do surgeries as well. Idk if that’s this bc there is a sub speciality for that or if I should just do neurosurgeon
Hi! Could you please do an episode focusing on pathology? I'd be soo grateful!
This was very insightful,when will you upload 'A day in the life of a Neurologist'?
Finally!! thank you so much
Much neededddddddd tysm❤️❤️❤️
I really want to be a neurologist but I'm only in 6th grade. I found doing this really interesting and I want to go to a college that teaches how to be one when I grow up.
Can you please create a quiz on specialty selection to see which specialty best suits our personality and interests?
AAMC has such a quiz!
FINALLY!! Thank you!
I want to be a neurologist when I grow up, I am entering grade 11 and I have already taken the necessary courses for this year, I have always wanted to become a doctor, but I have also taken great curiosity in the brain and how it functions, I would love to treat poeple with alsimers and other brain diseases, I also understand that it will take a great amount of skill and studying to become one, I also understand that it will take several years of university, medial school and many more, but I will continue to work hard and to eventually accomplish my dream.
this helped a lot🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Yes, my heart skipped a beat !!
❤️ the vid & your channel
Great video! Can you please do a so you want to be an otolaryngologist ?
You should do "so you want to be an "infectious disease physician""
Hi Dr. Jubbal, Great video!
I was wondering, what would be the pathway for interventional neuro-oncology?
So you want to be an oral surgeon please!! Love these videos!
Yes; that's actually a highly skilled specialty dentist(DDS or DMD)!
That is, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon.
It would be awesome if you could do one of family doctors! 🙌
Thanks for the great videos. Finishing my neurology residency this year, I think this was a great decision. Next year I'm doing fellowships in stroke/vascular neurology and a 2nd one in neurointervention.
Hi! Im also considering neurology, but I certainly don't want to be to much time on call. How many time do you spend on call?
Neurology has lot of calls
@@isidorocasanovas9300 the call is highly stressful. As soon as someone with a possible stroke comes in you have to assess them and decide whether to give them medication that could save or kill them in a few minutes. If you take too long to decide then you get criticized. Meanwhile no one can tell you how the symptoms started and the patient is totally confused.
@@georgewang2947 great, thanks for the info. Nowadays I'm comsidering endocrinology and immunology, I'm just a 2nd year medstudent, so I have plenty of time to decide!
I want to know?
Are neurologists only diagnose patinet and refer them to neurosurgeon?
Can neurologist treat patient?
I was just about to ask for this one
Please make a video on day in the life series of a Neurosurgeon
YESSS FINALLY THANK YOU
im hesitating about choosing this speciality because its underestimated in my country people still confuse it with nuerosurgery or psychiatry even some doctors dont really understand what it's all about maybe there's hope for this speciality in the future
I’ve waited for this for so long. I always thought being a neurologist would be so cool; especially with an undergrad in psychology. Even though I’m still upgrading highschool 😂. My dream was to be a neurosurgeon and be down literally looking at and into the brain just seeing what in the world goes on in there but because I have controlled epilepsy myself I don’t believe surgical fellowships are an option for me.
It's not as fun as you think. All day long you're stressed and there are lots of suffering patients who you cannot diagnose.
@@georgewang2947 don’t discourage them. You don’t know what they’ll do. Let them be happy
Rooting!
I only wish it was longer lol love neuro!!
Great video as always
So you want to be a Pulm/critical care or interventional pulmonologist
"So You Want to Be an ONCOLOGIST" would be great!
Please do one about gyne/obs 🥺
YES!! THANK YOUUUU
