NEVER WOULD I MISS 2 WEEKS IN A ROW OF NOT UPLOADING. Omg i missed yall so much. I had a week off for vacation (which i have a heartwarming, beautiful montage to recap it), and now I'm back to hospital/residency life. It was a pretty annoying week, honestly. But i'm trying to just laugh off the pain and smile through the chaos. :-) hehe
Thumbs up if you enjoyed the video! I look forward to chatting with yall in the comments!
I’m so proud to be a part of the herd. Seeing you go from a medical student to be a shining incredible doctor warms my heart. Your passion for your field and your patients is truly amazing. Lots of love to you Dr. Rachel! ❤
Thank you so much. 😭 having yall here with me on this ride has been such a treat 💕 love you
I’ve never been more happy about a person i do not know irl taking a break 🥹🩷🩷🩷so well deserved Rachel, we are rooting for you!
💕💕💕🫡
I love that you adjust your vibe/tone to match with your patients. This shows so much compassion and empathy, and probably means more to your patients than you even realise.
💕
Since comments make your day. I will let you know that your patients are very blessed to have you as their doctor. I loved it when you said “ You can read people and adjust yourself to what they need from you.
😭😭😭 thank you omg
I’m loving the piano montages 💗 your bf is so talented!
Thank you 🥹🙏
Isn’t he!?! He’s so special 💕
The way you edited this vlog amazes me! It feels like watching a movie. Even when your life is not running as smoothly I feel like you keep standing up and fight for your passions! you're an amazing person♥
Please don’t feel like you have to apologize. Your life is crazy as it is . I’m happy you went on vacation and had fun. Keep up the good work!!!!
You're the best!💕 thank you
@@RachelSouthard absolutely!!!! I love how you want to keep us happy but you have to take care of yourself first.
Hi Rachel, I am going to be an incoming pre-medical student and I wanted to say that your videos form the beginning till recently have been extremely helpful in showcasing the ups and downs of the journey into medicine. Your words about no matter how hard you fall, you always get up and instilling confidence no matter the circumstances of a situation is truly inspirational. You are one of the very few that gives individuals hope to become a doctor despite the challenges that come with. Thank you ❤
The music in your videos is always so pleasant! I wish I could have an entire playlist!!!
It’s all my boo playing piano! He’s so great
@@RachelSouthard 😱how wonderful is that?!
I miss patient so much, as a nurse in a ward I would hang out with patient when collages would sit in the office on Facebook or something, I would always hang out with the patients and they loved it, I would just talk to them, some of them would be weeks or months at the hospital so just making their day a little better was a blessing :)
Wow your boyfriend plays the piano so good. It literally took me to the middle to realize wait he’s playing the Disney song that’s so sweet! I’m glad you had a nice vacation surrounded by people who make you 😊
Right!? He is so incredibly talented. I asked him “can you play a beautiful rendition of when you wish upon a star” and he did that
The piano segments make me so emotional hearing them 🥺
You know you’re Mexican when you just throw the tortilla on the flame lol love it
EXACTLY YES
OH GOOD YOU DESERVED A BREAK!! you’re such a hard worker it’s okay we’ll be here waiting for you don’t feel pressured pretty girl you’re doing the best you can🫶🏼💕💕
Wow that has to be such a good, wholesome, and reassuring feeling when the patients outwardly express gratitude and praise of you! Makes me very happy to hear that from you Rachel, and excited to hopefully experience that with the patients I encounter later on in school!
So glad you took a time off for yourself! Hope the holiday was charming, always great to see your videos ❤
Thank you so much! I loved the vacation edit!!!
love you too!!!!! screamed when I saw a 19min vlog

Rachel, I just want to say thank you so much for all the effort you have put into these videos for us the last several years. I was following you before I ever started nursing school...and now I've graduated & just started working in my dream specialty - oncology! 💜 You have helped keep me on my path at times when it was so much easier to quit. Thank you for all you do. 💖
Loved watching this week's video. Thank you for sharing.💖
So glad!
Aaw this is the first time you've replied me back😍Love you Rachel.🥰@@RachelSouthard
Watching u always motivates me ❤
You’re doing absolutely amazing Rachel! As a pre-med student your videos are so so inspiring!
Hi Rachel! Thank you so much for your video this week. I take my MCAT for the first time in less than 2 weeks and I am so stinking passionate about OBGYN :) Throughout my entire MCAT studying and premed process, your videos have continued to inspire me to keep pushing. Thank you for that
Hi Rachel, I've been watching you since you were in second year of med school and seeing were you are now and what incredible doctor you have become is so inspiring. I've just started med school and you inspire me so much even when things are hard. Just wanted to thank you for everything and love you so much ❤
YES!!!! I found your channel a few weeks ago and have watched almost every video. Still catching up to early residency videos but I am so proud of how far you’ve come.
Do you ever watch back on old videos and feel like it was yesterday or does it feel like so long ago because your life is so different now?
Full support for you from me- I’m sorry you’re getting your ass kicked. Soo glad you’re so uploading these are my comfort videos when I’m also getting my ass kicked haha.
Thank you so much Rachel for all the amazing work that you put for your patients and us literally every week!!! We love you ❤
Absolutely! Anything for our lil community 💕
I am an intern in residency too and there is NO bandwidth at the end of every day to study or even pick up a book or have a medical thought in my brain. The 12-14 hour days 6 days per week is killing me. The struggle is real, but you are doing so amazing Rachel!!!! :)
The pianist is outstanding!!!! Love your channel!! ❤
The camera is great, it perfectly focuses on your beautiful smile.
Awh shucks!
You’re not alone RE: studying after a whole day of work. Professional development truly pays off when that little extra bit of grind and grit make you 1% better everyday. I’m taking my DBA and the last thing I want to do when I get home is read case studies of other businesses dysfunction… but future you will thank present-you! Keep your eyes on the prize and nose in the books (or the computer screen). 🤓💪
I love when you upload ❤
I love you comment :)
Good lord. It's like test after test after test. Even after med school, seems like it never ends. I admire your passion and dedication.
Always inspired by you! From a current M1, your work ethic is incredible :)
The "Agghhhh" after saying it turned into a longer day then yesterday literally is like my life lol 😂
Glad you were able to get a break. We’re all proud of you for all the hard work you put in, not only for your career, but for this channel as well.
Thank you so much!
You’re just a weapon. Your coping skills and everything are getting stronger and better I’m happy for you that it’s slowly sometimes more tolerable
Thank you😭
Hi, I'm in the med school and we have gynecology rotations now. I feels really special because you have talked about gynecology a lot and you love it so much. This rotation just feels like living in the Rachel's world and it's amazing. ❤
Yay!! I hope you’re enjoying it :)
You are amazing! We appreciate you. You encourage me to keep studying as I watch you bust your butt, while wearing so many hats. Thank you for all you do Rachel!
Awh. You got this!!💕
awesome quality !
Yay! Glad you can see the difference :)
Just came home from the GP placement / rotation and now have to study for exams 🫣 I‘m so tired and I just wanna rest. So I‘m watching your video while eating so I can remember, I‘m not the only one that has to study after a long day 🥲
Finally…Welcome Back 🩷
How did the mock orals go?
I love your decent , sens of humer ,and off course your eyeglass 😊
THANK YOU FOR THE AMAZING VIDEO
Ahh thank you💕😭
Fabulous camera! Chef's kiss👌
Yay! I’m so glad you enjoy it! It’s pretty crisp.
I want to be an ob/gyn too and I'm in my gap year before going to uni but I'm so nervous about going to med school but watching you has helped me so much. Thank you for sharing your experience
Rachel, I’m a PA and I wish more doctors would like you, I love your spirit and personality. Anyone would be SO lucky to have you as their patient! Love you girl!❤

Hey rachel, I thought I would give you an easy recipe bc your last vlog when you were too tired to eat it made me so sad. I have started to become obsessed with cottage cheese. I mix 1/2 a cup with 2 eggs and then scramble them. You cook it until the water is cooked off and you cant even tell there is cottage cheese in it. It ends up being 26 g of protein. I usually have it on a bagel. Also I feel like you would like ghost pancake batter protein powder, i make overnight oats with it. Anyways, Ive been watching you since 2020 and I am actually writing my last finals next week for my athletic therapy degree. You started me on anki! So thanks for helping me graduate!
Loved the intro
Thank you!
Thank you being so inspiring, I can’t wait to be an excellent female physician like you!
You’ll be even better!!
Your painting you showed in the clip during your week off reminds me of the paintings in the sketchy for Trichomomiasis😂!!
Great video once again!!
Big love as always (vibing with the hysterical laughing 💀)
loved the intro ❤🎹
All thanks to Patrick!
In the Building waiting from Baltimore MD 😎😎😎
When I start laughing hysterically, that's when I know the tears are coming
Hey Doc, I love watching your channel, and I find your channel inspiring, motivational, and educational at the same time. I have a question for you. Doc: Once you have completed residency, do you plan on still creating videos highlighting moments of your life/career as an attending physician?
Thank you!!
Yes I do!! I hope to :)
Im a senior in undergrad and it’s finally my last semester. I am so burnt out and ready for all the studying to be over! lol
Omg welding in the uterus? Sparks ? I need to know details now !
Yay…Welcome Back…So glad you enjoyed your little vacation..☺️ Now to welcome you back i am gonna quote Monica Geller “ Welcome(back) to the real world, it sucks, you are gonna love it” hehe…cya😊
Hahah I love that. Thanks!
Hey Rach, you deserved a break. Life is crazy as it is 😬But happy to see a video pop up from you again❣
I thought I saw dr. Mike there for a sec-
👀(prob someone else lol)
Thank you!
Haha everyone keeps sayin that. It’s our friend. Not Dr. Mike lol
Excellent video.
Why thank you🥹
@@RachelSouthard You’re welcome
Hey Rachel, did you get a new camera? is it the fujifilm one listed on your amazon ?
In the Building watching from Baltimore MD 😎😎😎
17:54 That bit regarding autonomy sounds kinda similar to life in the military 😏
We would understand if something came up and yOu weren’t able to upload for two weeks. No pressure love❤. Love you too!
☺️ thank youuu
ur so funny rachel :)
Very beautiful doctor
Remember you need to take care of yourself first. I hope you did well on your mock oral boards
Thank you! I did well!:)
I assume the gorgeous piano music is your man’s. He is very talented. Xx ps hi from Australia xx love your videos !
It is from him. He is so talented. 💕 he will appreciate reading this comment. Thank you!
Rachel inspires me and the music comes out as it does because of her ♥️ thank you for the kind words!
the stress relief from having a competant OB is unrivaled in womens medicine. Just knowing I can talk to my OB and she's NOT going to dismiss me or call me crazy, she has NO QUALMS about ordering anything i need, its the perfect relationship, I wish she was my GP, and I'm so fuckign sad she isn't. Thank You for ALSO being one of the good ones!!
I always come back here when I need a much-needed dose of excellence iml.
Love you❤ from Algeria 🇩🇿
I hysterically laugh too lol
The camera was the right move 💯
Yasss!
Is that your boyfriend playing on piano?? Love it!!! Another great vlog!!!
YES!!!! Isn’t he incredible
Thank you 🙏🙏🙏♥️
If someone wants to start nursing which way do or what would you choose now?
I will defer that answer to any nurses in the comment section! Cause I’m not sure :)
Your boyfriend is so lucky to have u u seem like a total sweetiepie❤
😭😭😭
After viewing all your videos, I don't know what's worse: four years of med school or one week of residency!
😅😅😅
❤❤
this is so random but where are your socks from?!
Bombas!
Where do you get your music?
I play random improv on the piano and sweet sweet Rachel records it 🥹
^^^^^ that 😊
❤❤❤❤❤
can i join the vacation week festivities next time 🥺
Yes 🥹
Did you take the Oral board?if you did how it went?
It was a mock! It went well surprisingly!
@@RachelSouthard that is great! Happy about that!
So you are a second year resident? You had intern year and then you startet specializing?
She’s a first year. She doesn’t use the term “intern” she prefers to just say “first year resident physician”
@@thecool808 Ahh! I thought you spent the first year on different specialized courses to se where to go next. Like in Greys :P
@@linnsoltwedelintern year depends on the specialty and the program.
#NOTIFICATIONS_GANG🤍🧡🤗
YUSSS!!!
Please send the link for this song = )
It was When you wish upon a star!
My boo played his own version of it on the piano
Would you ever consider getting an editor? Maybe that could help with your workload or stress
Yes!! But no ): I feel like it would be more work to do that cause I’d wanna micromanage that editor
