      Hi Rachel! Im a big fan of yours! I currently study medicine in Colombia! Crazy right? I think its very cool for you to know that you have a lot of international viewers...!! I wanted to ask you if you could be more educational in your videos, for example, you could explain what´s a pap smear! However I have noticed that you are already trying to do it, and I appreciate it very much! Thank you for your videos, they motivate me a lot!!!! Byeee ♥️

    Rachel, I live in a town with a large medical school so about half the time I go to the doctor's office I talk to a medical student. I like talking to them and have no problem with them doing things that I know are probably their first time. They always seem so eager to do the very best job they can do. In fact, I had a life-changing visit with a medical student once when he told me how to prevent ear infections I am prone to getting when scuba diving. So what you are already doing can have a big impact for your patients!

    I have been watching your videos recently and they really help tremendously! I am a first generation college student so it’s really difficult to have guidance on what it takes to be a DO. You have inspired me to stay dedicated because the result is so worth it! My only concern is the admission requirements… they are quite scary which is why I am so torn between being a PA or DO. Both paths are amazing and interesting but I am super scared about the competitiveness. Maybe you can share more about your experience as a young student?! I heard about bridge programs and taking a gap year to shadow+ retake/take classes you need or need to better your grade. I have met no one like me which makes me worried if I am really meant for this path! I hope you see this bc it would seriously help so much. Other than that, You’re amazing Rachel! Keep it up :)
