It's such an encouragement to see Christian physicians willing to proudly wear their faith. Thanks for shining your light while also being a great pediatrician, Dr. Threadgill! I hope to be like you someday.
Great interview! I love my sons ped, she is wonderful. I agree with him. We see our ped all the time (thanks to daycare germs) & I feel blessed to have her not to just take care of my baby, but for guiding me through motherhood (1st time mom)!
Really enjoying this series! Family sports med and EM are really interesting me right now! Could you add a military resident/med student questionnaire to this series? I'm a reservist and I start rotc in the fall so I would really appreciate hearing from a service member! Thanks man and keep grinding!
Interestingly enough, I found out this week that our EM program is directly associated with the military due to a nearby Army base. Around half of our current EM residents are military so I can ask around and see if they can share their perspective! From what I heard briefly, these military EM programs are popular across the country so you're definitely looking towards a very good specialty!
I know the good doctor said that if he were not a people doctor, he would be a “car doctor”. I think he would be an awesome special education teacher. He has the heart for it!
I was so excited to see this video as an aspiring pediatrician, hoping to enter medical school next year and hopefully one day become a pediatrician 😊, great video, learned a lot from it 😄
I am a first year university student in Canada, I have wanted to be a pediatrician since the age of ten yo. Hope to keep working hard to achieve my goal!
Not necessarily an MD, however, could you interview an RD/RDN (registered dietitian/ registered dietitian nutritionist)? I just found these and am already obsessed!
One of the most interesting things I've noticed from watching a number of Andy's videos is that there are some patterns of behavior that seem out-of-the-ordinary to me, but which might be connected to culture or customs that I'm unaccustomed to. I'm wondering whether they could be mostly due to geographical location, or whether they're due more to the people Andy chooses to associate with (or whether there might be other explanations). For one, a _lot_ of the doctors I've seen in his interviews are openly Christians whose religion is apparently a major part of their lives, judging by the way they talk about things like bible study, writing about religion in their spare time, wanting to have dinner with Jesus, etc. Is it the average norm for people, including doctors, to be so openly religious in this region of Georgia? Or is this trend probably more influenced by the extended social circle Andy picks his interviewees from, such as if he's involved in Christian medical organizations? I'm from Massachusetts, one of the least religious states (also the one with by far the most doctors per capita), and this trend is pretty surprising to me because 1) very few people I know or have met are religious enough for it to so easily come up in an interview like this; and 2) I associate doctors with being less religious than the general population, and most I know are so used to presenting a totally neutral, uncontroversial face in their profession that they'd be unlikely to bring it up in everyday conversation. I am interested to know whether there really is such a big cultural difference between the states, or whether there is some other explanation for this. For another thing, it seems like every interviewee has readily offered Andy something to drink during the interview. I know it's a fairly common thing to do in the U.S. to offer guests refreshment (and many other countries as well), but in these videos it seems so standard that I wondered whether it was pre-planned before every interview, or else whether every doctor had watched other videos on this channel and picked up on the trend. Now that I'm thinking about cultural differences between states, I wonder: Could this be a Georgia/Southern custom too? That it's just expected to offer a guest a drink every time they're in your home, regardless of the fact that they're in the middle of conducting an interview? There are a few other patterns I've noticed, but these ones have stood out to me the most. Anybody who has the world knowledge (or knowledge of this channel) to shed some light on these ponderings would be much appreciated to do so!
I would say the offering drinks/some small food item is fairly universal in most American homes. Discussing God and religion I would say is more region dependent, but even still there are many people who, when asked, will say that their faith is at the core of their values or their reason for being (see athletes, politicians, celebrities, etc.) The degree of sincerity in this certainly varies.
offering drinks is super american and considered being a good host. As a southerner myself i think the religious part seems to be cultural and regional wise, and definitely the age of the doctors. Since he was in Georgia at this time he was gonna get many religious doctors since it’s Georgia
Im a medstud from indonesia and most doctors here are religious (muslim). Personally i trust religious doctors more bcs they truly want to help you bcs of their faith. Im not saying atheist doctors aren't as good, but thats my observation. Religious doctors are so passionate.
I really like this series a whole lot. But the way you pronounce "specialty" makes me pronounce it to myself like 5 times every time you say it once lol where's the ttttttt
Who could expect those scientific facts🔬🧬🧫👶🏻🤰 to be mentioned over 1400 years ago by an illiterate Man lived in the Desert 🏜️ {23:12} And certainly did We create man from an extract of clay.{13} Then We placed him as a sperm-drop in a firm lodging.{14} Then We made the sperm-drop into a clinging clot, and We made the clot into a lump [of flesh], and We made [from] the lump, bones, and We covered the bones with flesh; then We developed him into another creation. So blessed is Allah , the best of creators.{15} Then indeed, after that you are to die.{16} Then indeed you, on the Day of Resurrection, will be resurrected...}

Not me. I hate kids.
I am so obsessed with this series, please interview many more individuals in the medical field. What a great idea.
thank you so much :)
2:11 I’ve never seen a kid just chilling and observing so calmly when the parent’s attention is not on them
This speaks volume about dr Matt :0
It's such an encouragement to see Christian physicians willing to proudly wear their faith. Thanks for shining your light while also being a great pediatrician, Dr. Threadgill! I hope to be like you someday.
Was thinking the same thing. So encouraging that he’s a Christian and that he uses his job to serve God and others
felt the same way! God is good!
You can just tell this guy is a good dude. I feel like he would care about ME.
you would be very correct, an absolute incredible doc
I’ve been watching all the episodes, and I’m almost certain that he’s the first person to offer something to drink. 💗
@@mishia3 neuro girl did
Yay!!! A pediatrician!! I cannot wait to be one someday.
Keep working hard and it can be you one day :)
I hope he knows he’s an absolute legend and a complete inspiration to a Bachelor qualified kindergarten educator and primary educator.
As a Georgia resident, I love seeing all these Georgia physicians!! Your series is awesome. Thank you, Andy.
glad you've been enjoying the series :) always glad to shout out the hometown docs
Such a genuine Man of God, loved this video! Hoping to be a paediatrician as well, starting med school this year :)
Great interview! I love my sons ped, she is wonderful. I agree with him. We see our ped all the time (thanks to daycare germs) & I feel blessed to have her not to just take care of my baby, but for guiding me through motherhood (1st time mom)!
Such a warm and selfless doctor. Kudos to Dr. Threadgill! I hope to be like you someday.
As a pediatrician, I LOVE this!

@@NDMD Thanks!
You are doing a great job showing us both the professional and human side of doctors! Thanks Andy. Could you interview a pediatric surgeon too?
He is so genuine and funny! Great interview!
loving the Jesus answer! and all the Bible studies !
I know the good doctor said that if he were not a people doctor, he would be a “car doctor”. I think he would be an awesome special education teacher. He has the heart for it!
You know they’re a physician when they are rocking some Patagucci
Hahahahahahaha you right tho. It’s all about the patagucci
lol patagucci. On the flip side, guccigonia.
8 kids?! Absolute madman
i mean...he is a pediatrician, if there's one person that can handle it it's someone who is around kids all day long 😂
religion :/
That’s my dream I want 8 kids😮💨😭💕
I was so excited to see this video as an aspiring pediatrician, hoping to enter medical school next year and hopefully one day become a pediatrician 😊, great video, learned a lot from it 😄
Been loving this series! Thanks for putting it out!
I have so much respect for family doctors/pediatricians, they seem to be exuding so much calm energy😊
Amazing work Andy!
It shows the amount of work you've put in!
Great series keep it up💯
thank you so much!
I love that you can feel the "south" in his voice. I bet he would be a fun guy to hang out with.
This has got to be the kindest sounding person I’ve ever heard interviewed. Seems like a stand up guy
genuinely love you for making this video. thank you so much
Jim Carrey is a pediatrician? .. just fun! Nice interview also as a german medical student. Great videos ND MD!!!
i love this series and can't wait to see more :)
This was such a brilliant idea.
This really spoke to me thank you so muchhh😭😭
20:40 best answer for that question so far!
Love this one! My favourite thus far.
I am a first year university student in Canada, I have wanted to be a pediatrician since the age of ten yo. Hope to keep working hard to achieve my goal!
I have multiple chronic illnesses and disabilities which are supposed to get worse with age so I don’t know if I will be able to make that happen 😂
@@taralynreal7399 my man why the laughing emoji lol
@@Michael-wy6fh why the laugh emoji cause you must find humor in pain u laugh at your struggles and they’re no longer struggles
Why are paediatricians always this happy and jolly
Probs because they have great hours lmao
Because they are around innocence
Wow that's a GORGINA home. Also, what a charming pediatrician. Keep these coming!
Hello Andyyy! Great great, series ❤😇 Can we have one with a pediatric oncologist?
Thank you so much for this video. I’m a 4th year medical student undecided with Peds or PMR. Looking forward to the next videos!
that's super encouraging to hear! hope the vid helped!
I love this series! Could we see one with a neonatologist?
Not necessarily an MD, however, could you interview an RD/RDN (registered dietitian/ registered dietitian nutritionist)? I just found these and am already obsessed!
Such a great video!!!
I had no ideas Jim Carey was a Physician 😮 learn something new everyday
Love this series.
This was so great! Very intentional
I’m going to The University of Georgia this upcoming fall and want to be a pediatrician!!
What a great guy
