Hi Guys!
We recently had a talk at UP Pre Medical Society's LIWAYWAY Medical Convention 2021 and i really had a fun time. However, there were A LOT of unanswered questions due to limited time. So in this video, I will answer the left out questions and start a conversation with you guys!
Hope you enjoy and learn from this one!

01:33 Would you recommend moonlighting first before taking up your preferred specialization?
02:26 Do you recommend taking gap year po before residency?
03:00 How was your experience with moonlighting?

Hi Doc! I know you won't remember me but I was once a medtech intern in vmmc. I can't remember if you were a PGI back then or a 1st year resident but when I told you I wanted to take up medicine, you sort of "influenced" me to study at your alma mater haha! Guess what, I am about to finish my clerkship and finally graduate medschool. I don't regret my decision following your advice back then and and up until now they are really helpful, especially this video. We appreciate how informative your videos are and looking forward for more! Thank you doc and ingat sa duty (hopefully, I'll be a surgeon too hehe)
aww! im so happy and thankful for this. all the best! i hope i meet you in the hospital again in the near future. goodluck doc!
Rome!!! Why not go on tiktok na rin :) more awareness!
Oo nga doc rome 😁
Yesss dokkkk

Planning to go to sleep since morning na pala but ah when I opened the notif, I'm so excited to watch your vlog po, Doc! ;))
salamat!

Helloooo doc! Thanks for sharing a lot of things 💖 super likee!!
welcome!
New subscriber here! Thanks for sharing your videos doc! :)
Welcome!
Doc wag ka mag abroad kasi napaka valuable ng content mo in the Philippine context! Haha!
hehe no po
Docccc! ORTHOPEDICS naman po. 😊
Neurology or Psychiatry doc. Hehe. But as always, all your vids are very informative. Thank you!!
Hi doc
Kk
Doc, kahit busy po kayo as a doctor? nakakainspire naman po na nakakapagtravel kayo sa ibang bansa. paano po niyo nababalance lahat
singit lang talaga, hehe
Doc Rome, any thoughts po sa Pathology as a specialty?
Dooooc!! Ang alam ko po ang kupal culture sa UP ay mostly pag mag-a-apply ka sa Orgs and 'hazing' po talaga siya. Pero ngayon po doc, wala na or very rare occurrences na lang ang 'kupalan' dahil sa anti-bullying act.
Question po doc, gaano po katagal usually from board exam results to residency application and acceptance? Tsaka, kunwari po board certified na po kayo, tapos you decided to take another specialty, can you still practice your initial specialization while currently doing another residency training for another specialization?
depends sa situation, results hospital etc. and also, private practice during residency is not allowed
Doc Rome thank u so much for this po!!! Helpful as always 💗 Doc will be taking up the board exam soon po, and ask ko lang po, i know a higher board rating is better but for u po, what board rating is considered competitive already in applying for residency? Thank u po in advance doc!
hmmm usually its 10-30 percent of your pre residency score. so it depends, still the higher the better
Hi doc! I just want to ask. Before taking the NMAT, is it required to pass the board exam of my pre med course? Or after po ng 4-year pre-med ko pwede na po ako mag take ng NMAT to enter med school kahit di na po ako mag take ng board exam for the pre-med that I took?
thats up to you. its nice to pas the boards for pre med for fall back purposes. but you can skip it.
Hello po doc pag ooperahan ba sa appendix may pampatulog puba?
pwede
Hi doc Rome, bilang urologist or specialist, can u still do primary care or general practice - for children, adults, pregnant? May time pa po ba kahit once or twice a week?
just the primary care stuff, di maiiwasan un!
How many years po kapag neurosurgeon, and how many years din po kapag cardio
5-6 years! watch my "surgeons timeline explained'' video and IM Podcast!
doc rome, if meron po military doctor, sana po meron din police doctor hehe. thank you in advance po! 🤩
dami sa camp crame
Great content. Parang kwentuhan lang. Di ko napansin na almost 18 mins pala yun parang saglit lang 😂
salamat!
Hi doc 😊 question lang po. Bago po ba makapagpractice as consultant sa private hospital, kailangan mo po magbayad sa hospital regularly? Thank you po!
