IMG's Personal Statement for Family Medicine Residency
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 сер 2024
- Reading and reacting to the personal statement I wrote a year ago to help me get accepted into my dream Family Medicine residency training program in the US! Here I talk about the journey that led me to ultimately choose Fam Med, why I specifically wanted to train abroad and what I'm looking for in a training program.
My high school English teacher's review center for Philippine college entrance exams and eventually, NMAT!

thank you for the inspiring content, ate doc aura! very timely reminder for me ang "tanggap lang nang tangggap, at bigay lang nang bigay" and the 3Gs. anyway po, where can we get those framed motivational quotes? hahaha so pretty and minimalistic kasiiii 😍
I made it myself and have been considering making it available to you guys. Gusto nyo ba?🤗🤗
@@AuraAzarcon DEFINITELY YES PO!! 💛💛 we need doktAURA merch na po by this time 😂 (like this guys if u agree hehe)
@@amflamata5490 thank you for sharing
Yes, ate!!!!!♥️
Hi doc, I passed the board exam. You are one who I look up to.
Congratulations po
Congrats!!!! Omg kami na po ang batch na susunod sa inyo sa medical boards. Kapit kapit lang tayo docx!!!!
WOAH CONGRATS!!!!!
Congratss po!
Congrats po!!
When I'm not motivated to study and when I'm feeling down, I won't hesitate to watch your videos, Doc Aura. I know that I am still in 8th grade but thank you so much for inspiring me and other young dreamers out there. Not to mention that I love your speaking voice. Salamat, DoktAURA❤️
Congrats for knowing your dream this early in life. I only found out that I want to become a doctor when I was in 10th grade kaya nahirapan ako ng sobransa pag aapply sa magagandang senior high schools. Anyways, good luck!
@@jmarais hehe, ngayon quarantine ko lang din po kasi narealize. By the way, I prefer God bless po kaysa sa Goodluck hehe. And, may all your desires come true, ate! Reach the skies and your dreams!❤️
I cried 😭😭😭 “I want to be more, so I can give more.” ♥️
I love how every medical profession especially pharmacist are mentioned here. Because in the Philippines they aren't that mention or 'kinikilala' here as medical experts. Thank you Doc Aura! I'm a first year pharmacy student and aspiring to be a doctor like you someday!
Yan ang pangarap ko para sa Pilipinas yung maiangat lahat ng healthcare workers sobrang laking tulong sa pasyente yan kung lahat tayo kasali talaga sa patient care 🥺🥺
@@AuraAzarcon thank youu poo Doc Aura 🤩🤩🤩
Dok, I am second year med student and I really feel like the pandemic is taking a toll on me, especially my drive to study. It really is difficult. Thank you for inspiring me to not give up. ❤️
Matatapos din to 🥺🥺
Before I started watching your videos, I have already given up my dream to become a doctor. I always hesitate to ask my parents if they can still support me in pursuing medicine. I used to work as a medtech in a hospital but I didn't see myself doing it long term. Thankfully, I saw your yt channel which motivated me to overcome my hesitations and fears. Looking back, I was constantly repeating my what ifs in my head. You are a blessing to this platform who changed my life. Now, I am a junior clerk in Cebu and I couldn't be more happy knowing that I'm so close in reaching my dreams. I hope you can inspire more people to follow their dream.
Wow ang galing 🥺🥺 para sayo yan tuloy lang
"I feel like i did." THAT'S IT!!! THANK YOU FOR THIS DOC, AU! 😭♥️
thank you doc! you are one of those i look up to. since your pbb days, i was so amazed by your strength and courage, i was grade 10 at that time. now i'm a 2nd year pre-med student. thanks to you and your videos, i learned how to be braver in this journey. your purpose serves well!
Omg doc, I can say that youve grown so much. From student to being a doctor. I've watched all your videos from the time that I am planning to take medicine, took the nmat twice but sadly I didnt get the score I need to have plus my parents doesnt want me to pursue medicine because they say that cant afford me to send to medschool, so they say that I should just work abroad, thats why Im working on that now. I applied to work in the US, but you know what seeing all the newly passed MD's and this video made me remember my first and greatest dream and that is to become a doctor. I am still hopeful that one day , I can still do it. Pursue it. 😭.Thanks doc, tanggap lang ng tanggap
Same.... I want to pursue it kahit mahirap, matagal at magastos.
Thank you doc ...I was on my lowest ground as a first year med student but every time I watch your video,my inner me wants to fight all these anxiety....
One step at a time!
Doc Aura is the main reason why I decided to pursue medicine. Galing akong HUMSS track noong SHS because I have dreamt of becoming a psychologist. Now, I am a 3rd year Nursing student and have been in love in the world of health and medicine ever since. I finally realized what I really wanted to do in my life. Thank you so much for the education and inspiration you have given me. I am so happy na natupad na ang ultimate dream mo and wishing for further success in your career! Been here since your internship days
Thanks for being a constant source of motivation Doc Aura💕💕🥺🥺 Congrats din sa Engagement niyo💍💍💍
I love your passion, your energy, and your mission to motivate students and Philipino doctors to take Family Medicine. I am not Philipinos, but your personal statement inspired me to work harder.
That was an excellent personal statement Doc! It shows much of yourself you've dedicated to doing what youblove and what you believe is important, and I'm sure a lot of people appreciate what you do. I wish you luck on your residency and excited to see more content from you!!
Hi Doc Aura! I am not a professional from the medical field but I love watching your video. The same as you I was really into pushing myself to strive for my dreams. Even though I fell down at times because of this pandemic I found a friend with you who is fearless about what life will offer to you. Keep shining, Doc! I hope that someday I will reap the fruits of my labor just like you. Keep on inspiring many people. Love lots from me. -TeacherR
thank you for inspiring us to pursue medicine. you're literally one of my inspirations. best wishes doc, keep going ♡
Thank you doc for always inspiring. Thank you for opening your door to us through youtube. Hanga ako sa katapangan mo po especially nong pumasok ka sa pbb, at pinandigan at pinagtanggol mo po ang mga struggling student. Palagi ko pong pinapanood yon tuwing nahihirapan ako woring student kasi ako. Kaya namomotivate po akong magsumikap, bumangon at mangarap ulit.
Salamat po. Atleast a heart from you po.
Hi po I am inspired to ba a future doctor because of you po actually walapo akong clue how to be a doctor but because of this channel parang may natutunan rin ho ako salmat po dahil mukhang ikaw na yung ate ko because I learned about you a lot salamat po!!
Hello Dok you are really an inspiration not only for the aspiring doctors but for nurses as well. People/Doctors like you is a blessing in the healthcare industry. Continue doing this po doc 😊 inspire us more. God bless you po. 🥰
I followed you since the PBB , and up to now where you are sitting on a chair and talking bout your statement...you will be one of those world changer ate aura , I could feel your strength and positivity towards life changes, and inspires others, I could feel fire and the desires, just overflowing right now...you will be a help to all...we are so proud of you...😭
Been commenting on your old videos how i badly wanted to become a doctor. But now, i realized that maybe it’s not for me.. pero kahit di ako naging doctor, masayang masaya padin ako kasi nurse ako. You inspire me to be a great nurse, doc. Thank you 🤗
im currently writing my goal statement for a family nurse practitioner program in Texas and youtube recommended this. sa pinas din ako nagsimula. great personal statement doc! congratulations!
I remember around this time last year I saw you sa registrar's office ng PLM and I was just a nursing freshie. I got so starstruck and excited kasi I've been a follower ever since! ❤️ Nawala sa isip ko lahat ng nirereview ko sa anatomy noon. You're so inspiring doc!! Laban lang always ✨
I like that providing the answers on line and social media, very educational and inspiring. Go for your goals doctora
naiyak ako dok, grabe 😭 i can feel your passion and dedication through the screen ❤️
God bless you Doc Aura im not from the medical professional but I am here because you are an inspiration. Your story depicts that one can dream and achieve. I am on that dreaming and finding the courage to achieve. Thank you so much for insiring us. ❤🙏👍😊
❤❤❤ thank you
3 mins in and I'm already subscribing! You're so sweet!
Road to Doctor Mike Collab! That's a well-written and impressive personal statement, Doc Aura! Personally, hindi pa ako nakakapag decide sa residency program na gusto kong kunin but what you said about family medicine makes so much sense, and sadly, true about the status in the Philippines. I hope for a future video, you can discuss what are the "entry points" on an IMG to the US (residency, fellowship, etc...)
Very passionate, professional and inspiring. I'm an educator, a high school teacher, i wish i could also articulate the things that i'm passionate about and the things that fullfilled me. Anyway, very well said Doc. You are trully an inspiration! God bless you in all your endeavors, personal and professional fullfillment.
Such an inspiration... even if I am not pursuing a field in medicine... watching this motivates me to pursue more in life :) ❤❤
Ako din po nagwork as a housekeeper sa saintlukes global po, pero nagstop muna ako doon para alagaan anak ko sa laguna po at nag iingat nadin for my family para hindi sila mag alala po at I start making video para habang nasa bahay nagtry ako mag apply sa youtube sana gaya mo doc matupad din by future ,I try my best doc at idol kita doc hindi ako susuko kahit naiwan mo family ,puppy at bf mo kayanin at thanks sa ate mo na napakabait po💖💖💖😍 ingat lage doc
Whatever words you say, Im so much amazed how far youve gone. So much for an inspiring doctor. Keep up doc. Grit!
All of you guys in medical field are my real heroes. Doc Aura, stay safe and healthy. We need you.

I don't mean to be creepy, but yea, if you remember that teentalk/candy girl from before who's commented on one of your videos and blogs, that's me. Came across this video while looking up videos regarding NCLEX.. and glad that I clicked on this and finished watching too. Doc, you're such an inspiration!!!! Hope to be as brave as you when it comes to pursuing my dreams. :)
The most sensitible thing i viewed today.. i feel like i become motivated to continue what i started, what i'm doing and the thing i'll do in the future
Keep on going 🙏
I'm so thankful that I've known you from kuya Jesi Corcuera's vlog, from ate Baninay's Vlog. I'm really sure that they're really proud of u from the very beginning. How I wish that you'd got to be Vlogging with the whole Vlog Buddies with kuya mat, direk ben, and ben. Huhuhuhu bring it back 😓, Stay safe Doc Aura.

Maraming salamat po sa video na 'to 🥺 Especially now that there's a pandemic and i'm still a 3rd yr medtech student struggling w/ the new normal type of education...idk, i guess everything is just so overwhelming it makes me wanna give up on my dreams! 😭 But then here i am, watching your statement and this is exactly the kind of motivation i needed to get back up! I am beyond grateful for this doc 🙏💖 ang haba pa ng journey na tatahakin ko but hey, one step at time right? Anyways, ingat po kayo always! Thank you po ulit 😊

I remember back in 2017, I was an incoming shs student when i first started watching your vlogs. You're one of the reasons why I wanna pursue medicine. Thank you doc!

Thank you for being so motivating Doc! Everytime I feel sleepy while studying, I rewatch your videos. Hoping for an apartment tour po doc huehue
I dreamed of becoming a doctor yet I ended enrolling to law school. Still, you're one of my inspo. 😍
Same sentiments. I ended in law school. 😇
You inspired me Doc to pursue medicine. I’m 32 year old next year and I think I’m too old already. I also have doubt on myself. I feel like I’m not smart enough. Though, mahilig Ako mag study. Hayst !

Kamusta nakaaral ba haha
the best you tube clip ever!
I needed this motivation. Currently in FNP program its been a lot. I wish i can meet you here in the US!!
Go future FNP!!!!
Congratulations! Soo proud
Hello Doc. I miss you. Please take care always. ❤😘
I'd like to be a vlogger too to video my journey to be a doctor or nurse first. You are my inspiration ate!!!
Very inspiring.
Somehow naipaliwanag mo ang mga katanungan ko.
Living in New Zealand, at first.. I question bakit di ganun kadali pumunta agad sa specialist. Kelangan sa GP muna.everytime magpacheck up, Same General Practicioner ang titingin.ganun pala iyon.
Even maternal health, di ka pwedeng dumeretso sa OB-GYNE.
Midwife ang magfocus ng iyong care maliban lang kung kelangan i-refer ang case sa OB-GYNE. Same with Pedia.
Primary Health Care muna talaga nag BIDA.
Thank you doc
First ❤❤❤
Thank you sooo much Doc Aura! ❤️🥰
You have great communication skills. I am sure you have succeeded in encouraging many Philipinos to attend and complete medical school. Heaven knows that the world needs many more family and specialist physicians. I hope you achieve working for the Mayo Clinic someday. Recommend the google "Minnesota Project Korea". The Minnesota Project lasted from 1955 to 1961 which helped rebuild Korea. The best and the brightest Koreans were selected to attend the University of Minnesota to train doctors and nurses to go back and teach others. The medical students had to learn English and were achieved knowledge and practice in conducting open-heart and other difficult surgeries. The Project also provided machines and special medical instruments. I wish the Federal government would provide the funding for similar projects in the Philippines and other countries. North Dakota is a hotbed for Covid, take care and best of luck.
Thank you for this Doctora. 😊❤
You're one of my inspiration doc
yung engagement ring. go aura! keep safe there.
doc au, pls start a podcast already. i learn so much with ur experience
Hi, Doc! Bago lang poh ako dito sah Canada. Dahil video nah ito naintindihan koh nah poh kung bakit kailangan muna magkaroon ng family doctor bago sah specialista. Thanks DocAura! Im “abangers” of your vblog.🙂

Thank you so much ate Doc for your videos❤💖 It really helps me with my studies... I am also an aspiring med student because it is my dream to help people that is in need of one😊 God bless on your journey!❤😊
#AspiringMedStudent❤
Your one of the reason why I push through to medschool Doc, minsan i feel like i do not belong here (kse grabe di biro) but for my dreams, im sure i can make it too just how you did :)
Impostor syndrome is real ramdam ko rin yan. Own it!
@@AuraAzarcon Thank you doc! Godbless po!

Hi Dok. You're a great inspiration as IMG. Just wanna ask, how long is the family medicine residency in the US? Thanks and God bless you more.
3 years 😊
@@AuraAzarcon and after that, is there an exam? Thank you.
Hi Doc! Matagal konang inaabangan ung 1st episode mode as a US resident. Atlast dumating nadin. Heheh. Sana safe kayo dyan and hindi kayo nahohome sick. Doc medyo pricy po pala ung medschoolinsider. meron po bakayong ibang recommended na mas mura? And my insight po bakayo about sa lecturio? Thanks! Godbless doc!
I have lecturio vlogs! Search doktaura lecturio. Medschoolinsiders is for those applying to the US lang. Theyre super helpful but if budget is tight, you can also DIY your application with the help of google!
Thank you doc. Sana more vlogs to come. nakakamotivate magaral everytime napapanood ko vlogs nyo. Wedding vlog soon i guess? hahaha
