Dr Okusanya, you are the spitting image of your father, who coincidentally was my Project supervisor at the university. It is a very interesting interview. The eloquence, diction, and mastery are top-notch. You are an extremely meticulous, brilliant, hardworking, and humble guy. Amazingly compassionate about your profession. Your ability to draw a healthy balance between your job and family is admirable. Kudos and I use this opportunity to salute Doctors for their sacrifice. May God bless you all
Ok this is literally GOLD! The quality of the video, audio, questions, host attitude, and the guest personality, OMG this is something this is really something. I gotta say I’m here before the 1 million.
Immediately he said the name, I had to check description and I saw he's Nigerian as I suspected 😅.. I'm just entering my 3rd year and final preclinical year and this is highly motivating to me as a Nigerian med student
18 years completely focused in one path takes true dedication and knowing exactly what your after, you set your waypoints and try not to deviate. However, starting at 18 years and done at 36 is actually young age with huge accomplishments, most people at 36 can’t even land a good job or have little to no skills.
This is SUCH a high quality interview in every way! Dr Okusanya had such good points and I was invested all the way through. I love your new setup and cannot wait for more interviews!
As a pre-medical student, I found this video incredibly inspiring. Dr. Okusanya's passion for learning, medicine, and dedication to self-actualization is both captivating and motivating. His commitment to excellence and personal growth serves as a powerful example for all aspiring medical professionals. One key takeaway for me is that while intelligence and knowledge are essential for all doctors, it is the passion, grit, and ability to connect with others that distinguish a good doctor from an exceptional one who truly changes lives. Thank you both for this wonderful content!
Every single interview is an actual masterpiece! I watched every video, a few repeats, and this is my 3rd time watching Dr.Okusanya interview. This man is absolutely at peace, ready to take the next challenge head first! What an amazing group of doctors we have at Jefferson! Im applying this cycle, and Jefferson is top in my list. 🤞 even if I don’t get in for medical school, residency in Philadelphia with these doctors would be an absolute dream. Im working in neurointerventional right now, but im more and more interested in my interventional cardiology colleges, and now to the field of both cardiac and thoracic surgery! Hopefully in a year I’ll look back at this post, with an acceptance 🙏
I am a family physician working in Singapore and it warms my heart to see so many brilliant doctors on your podcast totally in love with their work . I am not brilliant but my life's motive has always been to be a very good doctor and it makes me feel good that all the great doctors on your podcast all share this trait. Keep up the amazing work man.
Living in New Zealand 🇳🇿 USA 🇺🇸 this gentleman's academic efficiency is outstanding. With all that he commends his wife for her proficiency also. Should all cardiologists meet this gentleman's standards the world 🌎 ♥ has so much to offer when opportunities happen. What a good listen, especially with a highly skilled interviewer. Thanks Zach. nb: recently retired 68 year old Maori nurse. Arohanui ❤❤😊
This is the one. Thanks for putting it together for all of us new med students and new residents. There IS a light at the end of the tunnel, and the smile on this guy’s face proves it.
Loved this conversation. He’s extremely intelligent and you can tell he’s a great physician. He reminds me so much of the surgeons I know, which is cool lol. Really enjoying your podcast!
I just finished the video and i hope it wouldn't end up !! Dr okusanya was just amazing ... his positive vibes and energy are of another level ... despite all the difficulties he went through , he stills love what he is doing and encouraging people to follow their dreams , which not common in the world of surgery !! My dream is to become a surgeon too ... and in 3 months i would pass the final exam to enter to residency ... and this video just showed up in the write moment, thanks alot for both of you !!
Good morning listening to this interview has made me feel comfortable 😌 that my life would be safe hands with this doctor. Fifteen years of self commitment with Education Efficiency to reach the levels that this gentleman has is reassuring. Thank you bless you❤❤😊
The trade off here, is that you have no social life whatsoever. It is you, the patients and the hospital. Just did not work for me. I respect my colleagues who took it all the way.
You sacrifice a lot to become a CT Surgeon... part of that sacrifice is your medical knowledge... You lose a lot of practical medical ability becoming a heart proceduralist.
what a fail of an intro. does all that talking about his accomplishments then the first he lets him respond is "if you did it again would you do it differently! herrr derrr" like honestly. no class. at least welcome the guest ffs.

A black brother in the field, i love seeing black people in medicine! Thank you for this interview!
Just had to bring race into it.
@@timas2791 why does that bother you?
@@timas2791if this is your mentality and you’re interested in medicine, that’s a yikes
@@dasiamonetbecause you have to remind people of racism and differences . Racism will disappear when you forget about it .
@@AshrafOsama-ul5qsno one mentioned racism but you. And it’s stupid to believe racism disappears just because you ignore it lmao

Dr. Okusanya is a stellar guest that I was lucky to have, thanks!

Idk why this interview was in my algorithm but I’m glad it was. Great interview! 🫡
I love this man, true commitment to the field
the juice is definitely worth the squeeze
This is SUCH a high quality interview in every way! Dr Okusanya had such good points and I was invested all the way through. I love your new setup and cannot wait for more interviews!
He has some fantastic points, every other week there will be a new one!
Just stumbled on this randomly and I watched the entire thing in one sitting. Phenomenal interview and phenomenal physician and human being!

Same holds true for interviews. So keep that in mind when interviewing for med schools
i can tell you’re pre med because this sounds like it was written by chatGPT

An extremely driven, intelligent, and caring guy - anyone would be lucky to have him be their doctor!
@@TheZachHighleyshow48:28 what book did he read 4 pages a day?
I am an accountant but I found this very inspirational. The passion the Dr has for the work he does is amazing!

Not even a medical student, but these interviews are very intriguing. Please don’t stop 🙏
So I’m the only one who sees Tyler the Creator?
Came here to say this
😭😭😭😭😭
Hearing him speak, he has positivity all around !
He is so smart. Valuable conversation
Shadowing a cardiothoracic surgeon tomorrow and this was so, so helpful! You both are amazing and inspiring.
Good morning listening to this interview has made me feel comfortable 😌 that my life would be safe
hands with this doctor. Fifteen years of self commitment with Education Efficiency to reach the levels
that this gentleman has is reassuring. Thank you bless you❤❤😊
Wow watching this is just firing me up, especially knowing he is a Nigerian like me. I need to do more!
Same here!
What an incredible human being! Please bring also an inspiring anaesthesiologist !
I would love to see an interview with a pediatric surgeon. Great questions :)
Noted!
This is a great interview, you can tell doc is well educated
This guys a medical student with a show like this? Very rare. Reminds me of that doctor mike guy. The look and ability to talk. Interesting.
Such an insightful talk...Even for a non medical student✨✨
Yeah he gives good life tips here as well
One of the BEST Podcast deliveries I have heard. Brilliant.
Wow. So much wisdom! Excellent interview and well worth the time and I am not a med student nor doctor!
What a great interview. I enjoyed listening to him.
Thank you so much for having this Interview! I'll keep coming back to this.
Dude I thought this was a Tyler the creator interview for a second lol
Zach these interviews are great!!
Thanks so much!
Exactly what I needed to see! Hopefully you get the chance to do a Neurosurgeon at some point.
This was amazing! I aspire to be a CT surgeon and this was so insightful. Thank you :)
Glad it was helpful!
Absolutely amazing bro, could you do one with an orthopedic surgeon please?
What an inspirational persona!! Great interview
Oh this is a brilliant, brilliant person
Wow this was great ! 🤩
Thank you! My guest was really fantastic here.
he is more qualified then i will ever be even in 10 reincarnations
The trade off here, is that you have no social life whatsoever. It is you, the patients and the hospital. Just did not work for me. I respect my colleagues who took it all the way.
A great interview.
This was a great interview! Wow his wow is also a doctor
Tyler, the creator, is that you?
Some interviews with female surgeons would be cool to see
Hey you can check out my neurosurgery interview, urology interview, and OB-GYN interview, but more to come!
I'm confused. So he did 5 years general surgery, 2 chief years, 2 research years, and then 2 years fellowship? Dang that's much more than I expected.
great video !! plastic surgeon ASAP please !
On it!
The introduction burst my head
He gives me a Ben Carson vibes
Tyler the creators pops😂
Thank you for this fantastic interview
What a beautiful interview
Absolutely amazing
My good friend Shawn ( Dr Doans) was a heart surgeon. He got killed in a car accident.
Wait, how many years did it take for Dr. Okusayna to become a cardiothoracic surgeon? Did he say 18?
18 years of higher education and training yea
@@TheZachHighleyshow thank you!:) I love this podcast 💕♥️
Great podcast! 🫶🏻
Amazing interview :)
Awesome
He is!
This was so good
That name is Yoruba Nigerian! Lovely!
Tyler the doctor
I like this style...
Thank you!
Is there one with neurologist?
Why is this literally Tyler the Creator
When did Tyler the creator become a surgeon?
WOW!
He looks like a cross between Tyler the Creator and Ben Carson
I would love to see an interview with a black female cardio thoracic surgeon
I thought you were interviewing Tyler the Creator for a second
Next time ask their salary
A black JOB!! 🎉🎉
Trump.. lol
You sacrifice a lot to become a CT Surgeon... part of that sacrifice is your medical knowledge... You lose a lot of practical medical ability becoming a heart proceduralist.
Wtf that is tyler the creator
Foreman
Why tf do you look like Tyler The Creator's dad?
