Yes! As a patient who's been doing physical therapy for most of my life, that part cracked me up too. Clamshells and resistance bands! That's been part of my daily at-home PT for 12 years now.
Somehow the live Dartmouth Match Day Ceremony came up on my feed and OMG - before each one announced their match, I could correctly pick out a new Ortho Bro, Psychiatrist, ED doc and Pediatrician based on your characters!
The robot inserting the foley sounds as scary as the one that can draw blood….. best make sure the right robot is doing the right procedure on the right patient!! 😳
An ER resident tried inserting three different sized catheters just before I was wheeled out of the ER but my penis was NOT having it!! She practically begged me to let her try again but I refused and told her I’ll go in a bottle…. She should’ve done it while I was still unconscious and was being stitched up (Cycling accident with a TBI and facial lacerations).

This has officially confirmed that PM&R is the right program for me. I too get unreasonably hyped about Gastrocnemius vs Soleus impacts on plantarflexion
Go for it! It's a very slept-on field and they need more physicians. Not to mention the bonuses of working a consistent schedule, never being on call, and making a ton of money anyway.
Holy crap, it’s the same for me! I am starting my residency in a few months - I still have time to make up my mind but at this point I am fairly confident that PM&R is going to be the ONE 🤩 And I’m so friggin’ happy about that! 😁😁😁
Where I live we are missing so many anaesthesia docs that it is no longer an application then get accepted or not, you just fill a form and start right away. Too bad they don’t pay them much…
The only thing the anesthesiologist is missing is having at least 2-3 blankets from the blanket warmer wrapped around him...which get left behind for the OR staff to clean up....
„Fakeuronium” 😂😂😂 I cracked up at this one 😅 I remember one time when I was doing my anesthesiology rotation, we put a patient to sleep for an arthroscopy and at some point the orthopedic surgeon started complaining that the patient probably had too high blood pressure, because he couldn’t see anything in the operating field and the anesthesiologist told him that the blood pressure was fine and we couldn’t administer anything to the patient. But the surgeon got angry and told everyone that either we gave something or he wouldn’t operate anymore. So we gave a little bit of saline solution and in a moment we could hear from another side of the drape: „I can finally work” 😅
Clearly the neurosurgeon hasn't heard of bone conduction earphones so that the scrub nurse doesn't have to hold the phone to his ear. Or he has heard of them and ignores them because it diminishes the important work the medical student is doing holding up his phone.
A heartfelt thank you to dermatologists for helping me sort out the painful and widespread cystic acne I still have at the age of 25. It was genuinely upsetting for my self esteem and quality of life. I hope no one has to ever put up with acne that you can physically _feel_ the pressure build up of just under the skin in every waking moment and massively stung at the slightest touch or movement of the face. Some nights I legitimately woke up to half my face in pain because I slept with my face on my pillow.
My former Jonathan now 2nd year med student is going to be taking her boards. ? Her roommates are 4th years and both matched 🎉! For all those students out there, congratulations and blessings ❤!
@tamarinmangold1414 I got him once. I was ... in position for a prostate check. As he was getting ready, I said, "I could've been a plastic surgeon, could've been an ophthalmologist but noooooo, I had to become a dick doctor." He busted out laughing. It's just as uncomfortable for them as it is for us.
As somebody who works with physiatrists (PM&R) I really appreciate the loving and very accurate spotlight you put on them. They need it 😅 Edit: Also just noticed that neurosurgery isn't holding his own phone. On point 💀
Seems like a pretty sweet gig...till logger bro shows up with his mid-face smashed to bits by the grapple on the log loader & all you can do is "aim for the bubbles" through all the blood...an actual quote by the cool as a cucumber anesthesiologist who stole an emergency trach away from me that day 😉
I only learned that TPN thing like last night cuz I am not sure if I will have to use that in my near future. Honestly seems kinda nice to me right now. BTW TPN is when you are fed nutrition through an iv drip.
I would imagine that making skin glow is a microneedling or tattooing process in which glowing jellyfish proteins are transferred into the skin cells, likely denaturing over time and requiring additional trips every few months to repeat the process. So yes, incredibly expensive.
Weren't these all specialties that have a preliminary year or a PGY-1 surgery year? None of the residents will actually start in their programs for another year.
Absolutely love this but i am begging for more Fraggle content (we want to be abby from ncis, we usually are dr.doofenschmirtz). Ofcourse not forgetting our overlord Tabitha & her sidekick the pathologist.
I just saw The New York Times short documentary on prior authorizations. Do you think the reform legislation has any chance of passing? Thanks for " Popularizing" the issue!
I liked how the neurosurgeon took the resident's orientation question as a request to check if the resident was AOx3. Then the resident corrects him by asking if there's an orientation for the specialty. I see what you did there. Very funny.
I love the added detail of neurosurgery having some poor intern hold the phone for him
hadn't noticed this, thanks for mentioning!
I did the same during a vascular case surgery
I was afraid of dropping the phone that cost 10 times more than my own phone
The neurosurgeon was probably operating while doing the call. Admin must have forced him to accept it.
Being a neuro PA...
Expectation: holding scalpel
Reality: holding phone and picking up the dry cleaning after the surgery (if they're allowed to leave the hospital, that is)
1:28 - It's a CHILD'S hand! Dr G could have had his wife hold it for him, but he understands the neurosurgeon to the core 😂
"This job is pretty chill. Sometimes things will happen that haunt you for the rest of your life, but" I feel like this describes a surprising and depressing number of jobs across industries.
I was going to say steel mill, but that job isn't actually chill.
Now that I think about it, it even fits software development. You're going to fuck something up that causes a crisis for a lot of people.

It's the only way neurosurgery's kids can spend any time with him.

I had to go back and _really_ pay attention to the hand, to see that it's a child.
Nice catch!

"Welcome to..." "Welcome to...*
"I AM THE NEUROSURGEON."😂😂😂
I literally lol’d
Boss music
The fact that neurosurgery isn’t holding the phone himself means he’s probably doing surgery while taking the call.
I'm pretty sure he's operating on the same patient anaesthesia is looking after- sounded like his voice when the patient got fakeuronium
That patient is DOOMED
The "fakeuronium" bit is the most important secret of anesthesia. You can't just give that info away, Glaucomflecken!
No, the most important secret of our job is that it is actually pretty easy. It's a bit like being an airline pilot.
@@MedEwokin what way is it pretty easy? Pray tell?😊
😂😂😂😂
Rocuronium is so much better than succinylcholine in my experience.
@@am529i Guess the secret code is not yet broken 😅
The print on the surgical cap for urology! 😂😂😂
I did a legit double take with that. Are those little scrotums?
Ahhh I can't make out exactly what it is! Looks like...a flower that also happens to look like a scrotum??
i did not need to realize that 💀
I did not even catch that. Had to scroll it back to look. Oh man, great.

as a pm&r resident, the ROM line got me good 😂😂😂 yuppp we might not be as muscular as ortho bros but we do not play about our stretches.
Yes! As a patient who's been doing physical therapy for most of my life, that part cracked me up too. Clamshells and resistance bands! That's been part of my daily at-home PT for 12 years now.
As an OT, I thoroughly enjoyed the PM&R one liners
The soleus is highly underappreciated.
Oh my god if the neurosurgeon and the anesthesiologist were both in the same operating room having their phone calls😂😂
It's happened more than once during my OR career 😆
Just another short where I understood barely 5% of what was said but laughed along anyway. Thanks doc!

I'll be honest it#s a challenge to get humans to consistently do that as well

When something goes wrong with 'it' the urologist becomes the most highly valued medical professional of all.

"That's much better! Thank you!" - said no surgeon ever ;)
These videos have caused me to know when match day is (and i do a little prayer for everyone waiting on their match every year)
There are generally a lot of people praying on July 1st... when all the new residents start...oye ve!
Pure genius showcasing comedic talent range!!!!
You are right. This guy is a genius. He’s wasting his time and medicine.
watching this right before finding out my Match program!!!! GO EMERGENCY MEDICINE!!
Don't leave us hanging... how did match day go?
@@KayoEll he posted a video about it, apparently he did match into EM !
“ for an organ that can only do two things, a surprising amount can go wrong with it. “ 😂😂😂😂😂
Every PM&R appearance is just Wonderful!!
As if the Neurosurgeon would hold his OWN phone... 😂
#1 the urologist has balls on his scrub hat
#2 someone is holding the Neurosurgeons phone
How is he always so accurate with these portrayals?!! 😂
Rural Medicine would be a trip-“Hey, Mike! Dust off the fan boat! We’ve got company.”
Please bring back the Rheumatology, Endocrinology, Palliative Care, and Cardiothoracic Surgery
Cardiothoracic surgeon came to earth for one skit...said one scary sentence and goes back to his domain...Hell
I AM THE NEUROSURGEON
The opening for the neurosurgeon is hilarious
Fakuronium😂😂😂
I gave a lot of that in my career.
Fictionylcholine can also be used.
Can confirm, my urologist is hilarious.
Mine too! 🤣

Balls are hillarious until they decide to inflate with liquid...
Then they're REALLY hilarious!

…..but don’t worry. It comes with games. 😄😄😄
No need to worry, the Dermatologist did not waste any of this 3 vacation days for this call.
Damn straight those clam shells need to be a part of the workout
"We rank based on looks" derm getting exposed? 😂
Thank you for another amazing video! You are brilliant!
Watched entire video like 😊; each specialty & their lines were hilarious!
You gotta love everybody geeking out
Not gonna lie, if this is the 100% real descriptions, the anesthesia sounds like heaven

Pro tip from someone who's not a neurosurgeon: Tell people what your name is when you've earned it. You'll probably be 57 by then, if you're lucky
That was a little more foley-catheter centric than I expected.
Stratum spinosum...I love I learn facts I've never heard of before!🎉. Thank you
You should do a shout out to all the medical students who didn't match. If you are one and are reading this, know that you are going to be okay
The simultaneous favorite rash exclamation made me laugh!
I only learned that TPN thing like last night cuz I am not sure if I will have to use that in my near future. Honestly seems kinda nice to me right now.
BTW TPN is when you are fed nutrition through an iv drip.
It seems like a good deal until it makes your gall bladder back up or damages your liver. Then it's not so terrific.
Can you do one for the SOAP folks? They need a lot of love and hugs for the hell week too.
Who's SOAP?
As a matter of fact, the urologist is the most funny guy in my clinic.
Gotta love that the neurosurgeon is still operating
I had to watch it again. I missed so much.
Spine cases are absolutely perfect for rebalancing your portfolio.
So are transplants.
Happy Match Day, Dr. Glaucomflecken!
Bout to find out where I'm spending the next 5-7 years and this video really helped ease the nerves :D
Good luck! Come back and tell us which specialty once you hear!
The JOY! This is great.
I would imagine that making skin glow is a microneedling or tattooing process in which glowing jellyfish proteins are transferred into the skin cells, likely denaturing over time and requiring additional trips every few months to repeat the process. So yes, incredibly expensive.
Just overload on Phosphorus - it give you a nice, healthy glow (especially after being under UV lights!).
@@rgmolpus don't drink too much water after that, depending on the form of the phosphorus!
Weren't these all specialties that have a preliminary year or a PGY-1 surgery year? None of the residents will actually start in their programs for another year.
The TPN joke genuinely killed me 🤣🤣
Soooooo…. Is anesthesia and neurosurgeon operating on the same patient while doing their match calls at the same time?
probably. Meanwhile, the circulating nurse's arm is going numb from holding the phone for the neurosurgeon for so long.
Absolutely love this but i am begging for more Fraggle content (we want to be abby from ncis, we usually are dr.doofenschmirtz).
Ofcourse not forgetting our overlord Tabitha & her sidekick the pathologist.
0:51 "What are your TPN preferences?"
I guess the neurosurgeon doesn't care about hepatic steatosis 🥴
Why would he care about those lesser organs? 😅
That's Internal Medicine's problem.
Livers are overrated 🤣
As a PM&R resident... More botox. Yes. Add a reflex hammer to the resistance bands!
The neurosurgeon saying your pager is in your brain had me wheezing
I'm offended peds isn't here. Where are my stickers?!
Someone else holding the phone for the neurosurgeon as he is scrubbed...hits different man
I just saw The New York Times short documentary on prior authorizations. Do you think the reform legislation has any chance of passing? Thanks for " Popularizing" the issue!

The orientation questions had me 😂
Anesthesiologist: “ that’s what spine cases are for” 😂😂😂
The TPN preferences... incredible
Fakeuronium! YES! 😂😂😂😂
The spinal cases one got me 😂
I was already hammered when my new PD called me today.
😂 I love that neuro chx has someone else holding the phone
Neurosurgery resident should have a PEG for enteral nutrition. Only use TPN if the GI tract can’t be used.
-hospital dietitian
Neurosurgeon doesn't cares if your liver craps out. He'll just order another meat muppet.
Fakeuronium! Beautiful.
The neurosurgeon either has a left hand in place of his right hand or he’s doing interviews during surgery 😹
"... I am the neurosurgeon...." 😹
whoa whoa did i miss the intro of urology!? when did that happen? he might be my favorite character.
