#neonatologist #NICU
Neonatology seems like it could be really rewarding but also very saddening
Actually, 95% of what happens in the NICU is wonderful and happy news. Imagine you get a sick baby and with your skills and knowledge, you get them better and send them home with the families. You are right, it is an ICU, so sometimes you get some really sick babies that don't make it, but those are fairly rare.
I’ve had the dream of becoming a neonatologist ever since I was 4! I’m a HS senior now, and I’m still sticking to it 🙏🏾 this video motivated me to keep on going!
One of my best friends just retired as the director of a Level 3 NICU. Amazing speciality. She has had such an impact on families lives. Saving our smallest babies. God Bless you all!!
Ekeke sounds nigerian, fellow nigerian doctors repping worldwide! great, insightful video!
Good to see Africans inspiring others.
Yeah that's what I was thinking!
Thanks for this Dr. Webb, my wife is currently a PGY1 Peds resident at UNLV and is thinking about pursuing a Neo fellowship. I’ll be sharing this vid with her ASAP!
Thank you for this! I am applying to fellowship in Neonatology, and I have watched this video over and over again.
Awesome video Dr. Webb. Thank you so much. I was a previous Neonatoal ICU RN. Very interesting field!!!
I want to go into neonatology, thank you for sharing! Such an insipiration!
Thank you so much Dr. Webb for this post. It was very informative and inspiring. Keep up the good work!
This is giving me hope to keep pushing through college thank you !!! I'm wanting to be a neonatologist 💞
Love your videos Dr. Webb. Very useful to all!
Representation ❤🎉!!! See you at the top Dr. Ekeke ❤
Neonatology sounds amazing. I am quite sure I will end up in some peds specialty. I am thinking of anesthesia/critical care/hem-onc and maybe neonatology now? Really enjoyed this video Dr. Webb. Thanks!
What'd you end up doing?! And how did you end up deciding?
@@izzy9913 Family Medicine with Surgical Obstetrics! Awesome to come back and see what I was thinking 3 years ago. Thank you for reminding me!
@@AaronTrillo Haha no problem! Wish you the best life bud!
Loved this!!
Neonatal doctors are amazing. They saved my 540g baby❤️ They looked after so well…her neonatal heart surgeons too❤️ amazing people
Great information. Exactly what i was looking for and love the personality questions at the end.
Thanks!
Great interview!
Thank you! I'm in high school in Florida and my dream is to be a Neonatologist. I know its a long road ahead but this is inspiring me to pursue my dream.
Neonatology sounds very interesting but I could never. I would be crying every day kids are my weakness !
Great video Dr. Ekeke. I'm so happy you chose the field of Neonatology. Best thing in the world! (sorry others). Keep up the excellent care of those itty-bitty ones
Thank you for posting this video....it is giving me insight on what this work field is like. Yes I intend on becoming a neonatologist I was premature at birth 1lb 13oz......what can I say its a serious calling I intend on fulfilling.
Great video! Maybe this can become a series but with other specialities?
Easy Medicine by TMD he has a ton of these videos with other specialties. 71 to be exact... look in the “playlist” section under the heading “Careers in Medicine”.
@@trevonsmith2761 thank you!
Can you do a video on how medical students/ doctors can work in school and the field even if they have mental illness/depression?
VERY INSPIRING!
Thank you 😊
Great video :) I'm a medical student interested in peds and neonatology, so this was very helpful for me!
Awesome! I’m glad you enjoyed it! Good luck! It sounds like a wonderful field!
Wow...she's awesome !
How similar or different is what you do as a neonatologist to what the nurse practitioners do
Which one do you have to be an OB/GYN or a pediatrician first then a Neonatologist?
Do you get any sleep in a 28 HR residency? What exactly do you do during each hour?
Do we really have to spend 14 🙁 years in school , cause that's half my life , this is my new career and I wanna know if it's worth it
it’s 8 years in school and then residency for three to seven years
Yea what they said it’s 8 years then you get a feel of it with residency, fellowship you get paid while doing it too.
do clinical fellowship in neonatology require research or is it competency based??
Great Video! So do neonatologists perform surgeries or is that only for pediatrics surgeons?
Another question, is it possible to complete an neonatology fellowship if you completed a residency in OB/GYN or general surgery?
Good question. No, Neonatalogist do not perform surgeries. Pediatric surgeons do. And most people do a pediatric residency before Neonatology fellowship
@@antoniowebbmd Great! Thank you for replying!
I want to do pre med nursing, do you think that’s a good idea. Ik it’s looked down upon but I wanted to major in something I know I would enjoy.
Do what you will enjoy!!
What is your thoughts on water fasting
Dr Webb I’m currently a senior and I really don’t know what pre med route I wanna take do you think is a good idea to study chemical engineering to enter med school ?
As long as you have completed the prerequisites yes! Don’t feel restricted to the traditional sciences for undergrad
What is the difference between what a neonatologist does and maternal-fetal medicine physician does? Both deal with critical care concerning babies so why are they considered two different specialties?
Hey passionateberry an MFM is dealing with high risk pregnancy concerning the mother and a neonatologist is dealing with critically ill and premature babies.
I like Neonatology...but could you get a maternal-fetal medicine specialist interview. I know there’s also another specialty that you go towards from pediatric residency.
I will look into this! Thx!
nice :)
Heyy if anyone sees this PLEASE RESPOND.
I’m actually graduating high school and I’m going into college to complete my undergraduate schooling. Do you guys know of any great medical schools I should look into after undergraduate school ??
Thank you in advance ❣️
Not sure what you mean by “great!” Pretty much all Medical schools will give you good training and teach you what you need to become a doctor. I would choose medical schools based off of cost, feeling like you fit in, and support that you receive/can receive!
Do surgeons have personal offices?
@Jordan makes sense, thanks.
Is she a sister to Dr Chigo Ekeke .. CT surgery resident in Pittsburgh.? Thx
no
They’re married!
UPMC!
