Thank you so much for your videos! As a resident I find it very informative, and you talk about things noone else talks about❤️ I feel like I get a better understanding of what to expect as an attending. Keep up the great work! And yes yes yes for day in life!
Doctor, be strong! Here in Brazil we have millions of cases and we receive much less. I believe that Pathology has this karma. Some friends have already opened their own companies and others have even abandoned medicine. I love your videos.
Thank you for your support! I am starting to become aware just how many countries do not have sufficient access to a pathologist. I hope global outreach programs get more funding.
Is the net amount you mentioned that you receive monthly before or after rent/housing payments? You mentioned it was post-tax but that leftover amount isn't much if you still have to pay for housing, especially in the bay area.
So to clarify, the amount is after all withholding, health insurance, hsa, retirement contributions, etc. It's also a biweekly payment. So I actually brought home ~9k a month. But that said, it does not account for my $4100 rent and monthly living expenses.
Am currently an OMS 1 and currently thinking of doing pathology with a microbiology subspecialty. Do you know what work is like for a pathologist with this subspecialty?
Most become a lab managers, but you will be in competition with PhDs. It's going to be closer to a 9-5 job, but will have overnight call for critical values.
As an IMG, the only issue you may face after graduation from residency/fellowship is the visa. Most academic institutions are willing to support J1 visas, but most smaller private practices would not.
Hi, I'm an non-EU international medical graduate with an MBBS degree recently graduated, I'm interested in becoming a pathologist in the USA, I haven't done my step exams yet, however I got the chance to do a 2 year master's in medical biotechnology in Hungary should I take it? I do find it interesting im interested in learning more about research as it might help me with that, but would be helpful in pathology? , and by helpful I mean would it help my application stand out when I apply for pathology residency? if I took those 2 years to build labskills and other start research projects because my med school didn't offer me much in terms of extra curricula, so I now that step 1 doesn't have a score there's more pressure to enhance other aspects of my application, so i feel naked to apply to residency having not done any research or volunteering or electives to enhance my application so, is this a good idea? any guidance would be appreciated
Now that step 1 is pass/fail, step 2 scores are the instand in. A masters is a good idea if you need more time to get your application ready. You don't need a lot of research under your belt before applying for pathology residency. Unless you want to get a position in the top research institution, the research is just a small portion of your application.
Definitely yes for a day in the life!
More videos after July starts!
I would like to see you in a full work day! Thank you so much! 🙏❤
Thank you for sharing! I would be very interested in seeing a day in the life of a pathologist.

I love your videos and they make me understand what life looks like as a pathologist. I would love to see a video of what you physically do at work!
Thanks, once things settle down some more, I can definitely do it
Yes please definitely a day in the life.

If your work allows you, you should make a video at work!
Definitely a video in the future. Maybe after I finally settle down and get a change to decorate my office :)
@@Baking_MD could you take a look at my comment/question I really could use a second opinion!
Would love to follow you to work! (not in real life, don't worry) Keep up the great work
Follow to work 1 day would be cool content! We like just hearing from you !
Awesome! Thank you!

Hello Doc, I'm interested in clinical pathology only residency, please can u shed some light about future post cp residency for an img ?

What is the monthly take home salary again for 227k a year?
It really depends on what state you are in. California has a very high income tax, so I'd say on average I would bring home 8.8-9k a month

Sorry to pry, but does your take home pay come out to $5K because of all of your IRA contributions?
Bi-weekly, and after all withholding and retirement, etc.
I would love to see a day in the life of a pathologist 🩷💜. I’m an img interest in this field 😍🔬.
