Love your videos and I think you’re pretty spot on! ENT PGY4 here. I do think that there is a TON of variety within ENT, as sinus surgery, mastoid surgery, laryngeal surgery and soft tissue head and neck surgery are all drastically different in how they feel. You’re right that they’re all above the clavicle, but they feel like completely different worlds to me. Just depends on the kind of variety you want. Anyway, keep on killin it! Thanks for sharing your thorough and thoughtful takes on medical specialties!
I’ve been telling my ENT doctor that there’s still something wrong after my septotasy I keep experiencing nose bleeding, migraine, discoloration and pain my nose fell so low after the surgery … but nobody believe me it’s so frustrating I’m just so depressed now it’s ruined my face and side profile I just can’t do it anymore. They now referred me to a facial plastics: How do I get them to get a second opinion??
As a fellow ENT resident, I completely agree with you. Outsiders have no idea about the breadth and variety of ENT surgeries and training. Drilling a mastoid could not be more different from elevating a microflap for a laryngeal polyp or endoscopically opening a maxillary sinus.
ENT Resident From Germany here. Great video, the best thing within Otolaryngology is that you can tailor your practice as u want, or u can be a master and do everything ❤
you just don't know how you're helping us to take the most difficult and important decisions in our life god bless you please we need a day in the life of ent and thanks
I love how ENTs are almost universally nice guys as this was the case at my hospital. Both were lovely guys, one had amazing taste in heavy metal music for the OR.
Thank you so much Dr Jubbal! You’ve helped me so much with deciding which specialty is right for me! Thank you for me being my main inspiration and motivation for medicine!
I feel like the salary portions vary on where you search. Here Dr Kevin is saying they are top 4 to 5, while places like Doximity has it at 12 under urology, radiology etc. but the year before Doximity had it at 11, over radiology. Other sources do put ent at 4, but I’ve also noticed that some lists don’t even mention things like CT surgeons or Neurosurgeons. I feel like other than your typical CT, Plastic, Ortho, and Neurosurgery, the list based on relativity to other specialties isn’t as fine cut as it seems. Of course one can get a general feeling To put it in picture for you all: Weatherby Healthcare has ENT for 2022 as 4th at 469k - but that don’t even mention neuro or ct surgeries in their report. On the other hand, Doximity for 2022 - according to Fierce Healthcare - has ENT at 12 at 472k. They have Radio at 10th with 485k. While the report that listed ENT at 4th has radio at 9th making 437k. (Edit) to add, Stanford’s own Roadmap to choosing a Medical Specialty pdf has Radio making more than Plastics and ENT per median values. In short, ENT is gonna make you money no matter what but I wouldn’t bank on lists 100% to tell you the exact placements of each specialty and maybe even your exact salary.
In the US we have other healthcare professions such as physician assistants and nurse practitioners that can preform some of the same tasks as doctors. Some hospitals hire them over doctors to save on costs. ENT is very competitive and their tasks cannot be done by midlevels so that's why he said it's safe from mid level encroachment.
0:20 I don't think the series is useless at all, I think it gives invaluable insights to people in med school about different factors to consider associated with each specialty. You might be experiencing an Icarus Complex rn, in which allegations that you're too self absorbed have pushed you to intentionally make depreciating comments in order to avoid flying too close to the sun ☀️
As an ENT, I am instantly triggered. Jk. Video is on point with most things, but I’d just like to plug that depending on the type of variety you are looking for, ENT can be unparalleled. What other specialty can do big open whole-body surgery, microscopic drilling out of the skull base, and endoscopic work all in one day?… hell sometimes even in one single case. It is true that clinic can vary from 1-4 days per week depending on sub-specialty, but it is also highly procedure-oriented with scopes, biopsies, injections, etc. It’s a great specialty for the right fit.
@@mahdisaloum5641 ENTs diagnose, resect, reconstruct, and do long term surveillance for head and neck cancer recurrences. Radiation is the mainstay of nonsurgical cancers with chemotherapy playing a smaller supportive role. These are managed by radiation and medical oncologists respectively, not ENTs. I consider it a positive to be able to focus on the portions of care most gratifying to me (surgery) and yield the rest to other physicians. And patients benefit from the multidisciplinary care.
Hii sir I'm subhronil from India actually i have been preparing for medical exams and i wanna go to US whether as a student or as a doctor after completing my medical degree from India .... Can you suggest me something please
Sadly d-r Jubbal in Bulgaria ent neither plastics deal with face trauma, only maxillo facial, oral surgeons are dentists while MFS are doctors of medicine and you cant deal face trauma if you are not MFS and this specialty here is so dead and dentist orientated like teeth and mouth cancer
@@kali3828 ask doctors themselves. Their job is really hard. Both physically and mentally. The only difference is that sometimes they earn well. But not so much taking into account the time money and effort they put into their careers. For me one’s choosing medicine as a career is crazy.
@@kali3828 not crazy at all. i knew an ENT surgeon who had to retire at 43 years of age due to back issues from performing long head and neck surgeries all day.

This series is NOT useless at all.

Liking that the content stays relevant to me from former premed to current ms1. Keep up the fun videos, Kevin!
“I like variety, and despite what my mom says it’s no shame in that” I died here😂😂 Btw this video Is actually pretty useful and informative !
I love how ENTs are almost universally nice guys as this was the case at my hospital. Both were lovely guys, one had amazing taste in heavy metal music for the OR.

I have a question do ENT also medically manage oncology patients with regards to chemotherapy or do they only surgically resect the tumor?

Being a doctor may seem attractive from outside but I think it is one of the worst manual labour jobs on earth.
Calling a doctor a “manual laborer” is crazy

Ents do scam procedures like turbinate reductions. Shameful
And how are those procedures scams exactly?
