[@ThatMedic]

More unexpected collabs coming

[@DhairyaS]

This man loves King's to his core

[@ThatMedic]

Looool wish kings lived me

[@tea_reem3146]

The entirety of a surgical consultation:
Any pain? No?
Plan: refer to medics.

[@ThatMedic]

No pain, home 😅

[@rxspect3663]

Dr Karan x That Medic, the best duo ever man! great video and you two are my biggest role models to help me become a surgeon just like you

[@ThatMedic]

Good luck!!

[@TheGreyKitchen]

Them: Bring a surgeon is expensive, competitive, you wont have a social life, you need to be well read, its a long career, you need to stay on your A game, you need to publish, you need to stay well read...
Me: Yeah, still wanna be a Surgeon :)

[@JohnWick-rw6gz]

[@iloveu975]

[@ThatMedic]

I think so 😅😅

[@user-jq3qt8no7h]

Ohhhh it’s this guy I’ve seen him on tiktok

[@ThatMedic]

He’s bigggg

[@nursetomedic5736]

Loved Dr Karan, very authentic (and normal hehe). Something I ALWAYS wonder about surgeons is- how they feel about becoming Miss/Mr? Years of med school and training yet when fully fledged surgeons you get same title as people who aren't Drs?

[@sharmeenkhan1908]

Two most inspirational people in one video?!?!? THATS WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT!!!😍😍😍😍💕💕💕💕👏🏽 👏🏽👏🏽💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

[@WooEnglish]

Great vídeo Thanks so much

[@drjennale]

Such great advice - building trusting patient relationships lead to better outcomes.
Question: What is an attending schedule like? I know surgery schedule is pretty different in the UK as compared to the US.

[@ThatMedic]

He’s not quite an attending he’d be a chief resident equivalent. Not too different from myself. 50-60h weeks, 1 in 4 weekends, 1 in 4 nights (pre covid) now it’s whatever goes

[@okidokidoc]

Thank you guys for doing your best as covid frontliners and going even beyond that to inspire thousands of us all over the world! Much love to this channel, Ali Abdaal!

[@ThatMedic]

🤣🤣🤣

[@safaaali7627]

thats totally amazing

[@pipparose_]

Hiya! Great video :) I just wanted to say something about one of the points you made.
I'm taught as an ODP student that it's NEVER okay to call a Doctor/Surgeon by their first name we always have to use 'Doctor Karan' for example, I've been in situations where I've accidentally called somebody by their name and been chastised for it and labelled unprofessional & being 'too familiar' what's your opinion on this?

[@nicola_k-s]

So I really enjoyed watching this though not a medical student in any way possible. It was nice to see a more personal side to medical staff. So I have a question, what sort of Surgeon is Dr Karan ( which part of the body does he specialise in) and which sort are you training to be?

[@henrysutton5813]

Late watching this... about that story about your Arabic - I had the same problem doing work experience in Greek in the gastro department where I knew all the colloquial words but none of the proper official ones... had to learn very fast on the job from context hahaha

[@MrGangaboba]

When I grow up. I want to be like Mohammed.

[@ThatMedic]

😰😰 hehe

[@Cyraa23]

That’s so sweet

[@japanmania30]

What kind of surgery do these people do do they have a medical practice are they constantly in a hospital or do they just teach at the college?

[@fatimaalimam3258]

THE BEST DUO IRL AND ON YT EVERR!!! 🤩 Omg that arabic word te** CRACKED ME UP 😂😂😂
