    Fantastic to see this as a lifelong renal patient who has known and worked with my nephrologist for the past 30 years, including being trained by him in nephrology so I can be my own expert and empowered in my own care, it's great to see it from a Neph's perspective.

    This is such a great video. I came back home today after not being able to match into a Cardiology rotation (Housejob) and since nobody opted for Nephrology, I was kind of stuck there. After watching this video I feel so better and who knows what it may hold. Great interview, thumbs up

    • @DrAdnan
      @DrAdnan  3 роки тому +2

      I don’t know what stage you’re at, but first step would be getting into med school and then an internal medicine residency after medical school, and then apply for a fellowship in your last years of residency
