Hello. I don't have a doctor and I don't know who to ask. Did the spit test, resulted POSITIVE. Did the urine lab-test 3 days after, and resulted NEGATIVE. Did spit test again, Positive again. Do I have stomach candida? I do have a yeast infection on my left arm though.

This guy seems like a stud! Starting at a USMD next month and hoping to go ER

The way he described Radiology sounds like the ultimate dream job for me. I’m a civil engineer and want to go back to the junior college and start my medical school journey and I’ve really been debating neurology or radiology. And I really enjoyed hearing a hybrid models where a radiologist came do impatient care and research/academic study. You get the technology and diagnosis satisfaction from doing impatient care and with the research/academic study, you get the stimulation of satisfying your curiosity towards the advancement of radiology. I’m still going to keep an open mind but I think neuoradiology is my top choice right now. I watched your neurology episode and the neurologist you interviewed didn’t talk about his career the way this gentleman did. I really appreciate the interview, it felt like a round table discussion while the others videos I watched felt more like an advertisement. Good job on the content!!

Great questions and answers. Thank you for this

This was extremely helpful thank you!

Hi Dr. Cao! I scribed with you at Madera Community Hospital. Now entering 4th year of med school at UCSF. Your videos are tremendously helpful. Thank you!

This video is actually so mental and so timely for me. I had the exact same process, moving from ortho to trauma surgery and then based on similar advise from senior colleagues I’m moving to EM and I just believe this is home for me, I love the variety and unpredictability and no roundsss or clinic😅

What are the bread and butter patients in rheumatology? Is it mostly OA Gout Chronic pain - Fibromyalgia ? And how much of inpatient time do you get?

Honestly just because of the shift schedule I can’t consider EM although I love the transversality of the job

bro this vid is fire, very helpful thank you!

Why this dude have super narcissist vibes? Why does every medical professional have a holier than tho attitude 🤢

Akathisia. Find Dr. Josef Witt-Doerring Psychiatry and hear about his work.

Perfect set of questions Dr Cao!

I’m a 3rd DO student and I’m currently torn on FM or EM. I feel like I am someone that performs at my best when I’m under pressure or stress. Id say that I also have a lot of emotional discipline which seems like a characteristic that would also serve me well in EM. Being able to go from the trauma room and code a patient and then go into the next room that is a child with an ear infection. I don’t allow any prior emotions conflict my experience with a different patient. Is it safe to say that most ER docs function well under pressure and almost embrace it? I have some serious concerns about how heavily abused ER services are (I understand there is a lack of PCP’s). My wife is an ER nurse and we often discuss the poor patient behavior that makes her exhausted. She always says she wouldn’t want to do any other specialty. She either loves it or hates it. It seems like a pretty toxic relationship😂 I’d like to observe how the attending are treated by the uncooperative, demanding and abusive patients she often talks about. Also the most recent match results is alarming in addition to the employment outlook having a “surplus”. If I do EM, I would really like to do a combined program or another fellowship like sports medicine. Variety is extremely important to me. I would like to believe that doing a fellowship is another area of medicine that I really enjoy may save me from potential burnout. I understand that FM can also do a variety of fellowships as well. In this situation I’d either do a fellowship in EM or sports medicine. I am under the impression that a FM doc can moonlight or work in an ER. But it’s usually in rural locations (we plan on living rural anyways). I feel like the ability to do this would scratch that itch for some adrenaline pumping emergency care. I always hear how FM is poorly compensated in comparison to other specialties but I believe pursuing your passion will result in financial stability. There are so many ways to supplement your income that this is hardly an issue in my decision making process. My priorities and goals in life are to be a good doctor, father and husband. Lifestyle is important to me. I didn’t particularly like surgery that much and I certainly don’t have the scores for derm. I think if I only did EM I would become shaded quickly since I have already seen the abuse when I worked as an EMT in the ER. It appears that EM lacks strong leadership from hospital administrators. They seem to be far more concerned with budgets and profits than actually providing excellent evidence based care. I’m fearful that I would be very enthusiastic working in the ER early in my career. However, I’m concerned that later into my career I may become shaded and resentful. At least I know what specialties are an absolute no for me. I have an elective rotation at the ER my wife works at which will allow me to ask my preceptor some difficult questions about the specialty. He is relatively young so it will be nice to hear his perspective and outlook of the specialty. It always seem like the older attendings are already burnt out regardless of specialty. They just want to retire haha. I often take what they say lightly and often ask someone else for their opinion too. I think observing the role of the physician within the department will help solidify my decision. The nursing staff often deals with the majority of the abuse, assault and harassment. They work incredibly hard and are often treated poorly by rude patients. I understand this but I really need to see how my prior negative experiences would affect me as an attending. It seems like the rude and disrespectful patients respect and respond to doctors much differently than nurses.

Thank you! This is the best neurology interview around

This was outstanding and extremely informative. Much appreciated!

Hey nice video. Can you please tell me what's the average Salary of IM/FM academic hospitalist who just started after completing his/her residency? Thanks in advance😊

Psychiatry is pseudoscience. It's playing "pretend doctor".

Very helpful thank you!!

Watching this video after match 2023. SOAP had almost 500 EM position. What is going on with EM? Is it going to get worse next cycle?

This man is amazing! Great interview on a unique field in medicine.

Absolutely great interview 🎉🎉

have recently been seriously considering going into psychiatry and this video was a huge help. Big thanks to you and Dr. Ellison!

Thank you for this video, Dr. Cao. As a recently-accepted applicant I really appreciate you sharing Dr. Hu's information with us. Now that I can more confidently research specialities I do think the hospitalist path is very appealing. Thanks again!

Really appreciate your work but can you please start discussing compensations in your videos too?

Hi, I'm a rising senor in high school, who's also going to pursue the pre-med route. Myself as a person always have had a strong interest/love for global health, and wanting to improve it. Seeing Dr. Emberger interview and passion for the matter, help me figure out my college major - public health, I'm looking forward for the major and traveling the world to help people thank you !!.

Great video. So informative. Thanks a lot.

That's helpful, thank you so much🙏🏻, can you please make a video about pediatric surgery?

Thanks for doing this interview, I’m interested in doing a combined Family Medicine-Psychiatry Residency. Can you share has email address for additional questions & guidance please?

Man, I miss hanging out with both of you guys. Gimme a call if you ever make it back to ENC.

Can a Family med physician working as a hospitalist for 10 years get a chance to do critical care fellowship ?

So awesome; I am torn b/w Neuro and FM and IM . I have been an IM physician ; loved it, Love Neuro too; FM might have a low barrier to entry as me as IMG old grad , below avg scores. and still be able to be a hospitalist/ Primary care.

Very helpful for me ; going through the decision process now.

Great Job. Thanks

Hi Dr. Cao, thanks for these informative videos. Could you please interview an interventional radiologist? It would be much appreciated.

Great video! Please do video on oncology and hematology.

I went to middle school with Jonathan. He was so smart back then and look at him now! You are amazing Jonathan. Keep up the incredible work you provide. btw tell your sis I said HIII!!! Take care =)

Thank you so much for this interview!!

Hi dr. Do you have a platform where you can ask questions??

How long will you continue to listen to words when you could also testify for yourself that Dr Oseghale Sunday Herbal Home medicine can actually cure Hsv1 ,2 permanently for 14days I’ve confirmed it thanks 🙏 I will be forever Grateful...

MS4 currently applying to EM/IM programs. Loved this interview. Thanks! Resonated with so many of the motivations he talked about. I have a question! There are currently only six programs that offer a combined EM/IM/CC residency which increases the duration of the program by a year and 7 other programs that only offer EM/IM. IF you complete an EM/IM residency but would like to do CC after finishing, are there fellowships in CC that are only a year long that work for an EM/IM trained doctor? OR do you have to go through one of the EM/IM/CC programs?

Great video! Thank you for uploading these, they are very helpful!

You have created some really great videos on this channel Dr. Cao! Critically under rated, thank you.

Love it! Very helpful 👍

I would do well

An Infectious Disease specialist with an Infectious laughter! 😅 Thanks for this segment; very informative. 👏

Thank you for this! I'm currently a medical student, and this was very helpful for learning more about ENT and how I should be thinking through my specialty choice. Your insights were definitely appreciated!

how much do a fresh hospatalist earn in usa??

Hello! Any way we can reach out to this doctor to get more info? His email or something
