It’s inspiring how you manage to make videos while being a surgeon. Your videos are also super helpful! I like that warrior mindset perspective- something I need to adopt.
thanks!!!! it's all about organization! haha. WARRIORS!
i see you everywhere bro
@@hamzayousuf6405 me too
I love you you are so real not fake. And say everything in faithfulness.
So glad you like the vids!
I love how all Dr. Parker’s videos are just him causally driving on the freeway and talking
To this day I still wonder why I need to learn Lac Operon.
So down to earth and humble, thank you for sharing you experience using it to encourage others! Keep those videos coming we need it its refreshing , encouraging and many can use it for guidance!☺️
Thanks tor the kick ass attitude ,i am definetely implementing that to me too
Can you make a video on how to kick ass during residency?
YES!
hey i just want to let you know dr.buck that i really aporeciate your content and ill keep praying ill become a surgeon one day 🤓
Awesome Yuriy!!! So glad you like and don't pray just work your fucking ass off;)
By far my favorite video from you Buck, keep up the good work!
awesome thanks!
Dr. Buck, I've enjoyed your channel and the content is so helpful and inspiring! I'm a current MS-3 planning to match into gen surg next year.
How did it go?
Great vid. Thanks for the awesome advise. Really going to use it. I am going to work my ass off to try to be the best. And I really am thankful to be able to get this knowlage early so I can really apply it
Hi I'm interested in becoming a neurosurgeon can you make more videos about how to get into neurosurgery, ps. I love your videos
Yes I sure can. Thanks!
Sweet tie Dr Buck
"...doing potassium and this shit..." hahahaa
Hey bro you’re a badass and a your story is an inspiration. I’m about done with nursing school and have a strong desire to go into medicine. Do you see many registered nurses in med school/ in residency? If not, why do you think that is? Keep up the good work man your videos are awesome!
Hey Nick! Good for you. Actually I think nurses make fantastic doctors. I had a couple in my residency. I'm not sure if it helps you get into med school, but once you are there you will have a leg up.
Buck Parker, M.D. thanks for the reply man.I’ve always wondered why it was a path less taken, considering once you’re done you’re guaranteed a job in case something gets in the way that you could not attend medical school, which can’t be said with the biology/art pre med degrees. But then again I have to do an extra year to do the pre reqs which kinda sucks but I’m not in a hurry, a year won’t make much of a difference haha.
Dr. Buck could you make a video on the best major for undergrad as a Premed? Much appreciated! (I'm majoring in Biochem mostly because it has the medschool requirements)
Great topic!
if you think about it it's good that you didn't rank the hospital where you did your rotation, and you ended up at Henry Ford, even though it was hell you ended up in a better spot!
Integral calculus and organic chem are hard classes
How do you study for boards? What are the best resources, and when in medical school did you start?
Doc you rock!
Omg you're in Michigan
was!
After this story I find it hard to believe you still recommend going to a Caribbean school once US DO school :p
Great video!
A 222 was 90th percentile!?!?!?!? I'd be mortified if I got that now.
Rachel Rogers for real....
LOL. You would be mortified with a 222 or a 90th?!
Buck Parker, M.D. 222 isnt 90th percentile anymore thats for sure. With a mean of 220 90th percentile is about 245-250 now
Buck Parker, M.D. a good step score for gen surg is probably more like 240+..some people even get 260+
No just the 222. This years national average was a 230 so a 222 is super uncompetitive.
Would being an IMG still be a disadvantage if I go to a German med school? Btw thanks for your videos! I'm a new subscriber
Tell us more about your research at nasa
Great topic!
Thanks Dr Parker; where did you end up finishing your residency after the preliminary year at Henry Ford?
I got a spot at Henry Ford in the second year. I kicked enough ass that they could not refuse me;)
Hey Dr. Buck. I’m super interested in general surgery as well. The vascular surgeon you’d mentioned, is he still practising? I’d love to work with a person like him.
Dr. Parker M.D. do Ross University still have major problem with HIV infection
among students?
I need your advice on the following matter. My wife is an IMG
Nephrologist living permanently in the USA. She will be applying
directly to nephrology fellowships as well as IM and FP. Here is our
dilemma. Although Nephrology is her best choice, there are no nephrology
program in our state, hence she will apply for IM/FP just in case a
local residency program will accept her, since as a married couple, its
terrible to have to move. In any case the problem is that specialty
applications began 8/26 and residency begins around october. what does
she do if some nephrology programs interview her before the residency
programs even begin? On one hand she doesnt want to be completely
unmatched, but on the other hand she might match in home state but wont
know till later since specialty and residency ranking and match dates
are at different times?
Hey Dr. Buck, you said that you didn't apply to orthopedic surgery (and other specialty programs) because you would've had no chances because you're an IMG and you also mentioned how important the the Step 1 scores are. I'm really interested in ophthalmology and I was wondering if I could still get a residency position as an IMG if I score extremely high on my Step 1?
Well I didn't think at the time I could do it. But now I know it's possible. Ophtho is hard, but with a high enough Step 1 score I do think it's possible.
Hey doc. Do you think i can match Radiology if i score 260? Even being an IMG?
What should i do to increase my chances?
I think you have a good chance. You may need to look for programs that are not university or large programs but there are lots in busy hospitals that will give you a good training.
Damn. Youve been through some shit
Everyone has their own shit....but yea unless you are a model shit doesn't come easy lol
Hey Dr. Buck how to become a sports medicine physician employed by professional sports team and how hard is it?
It is possible to get into med school and graduate to someone that suffers from Cervical Radiculopathy due to an accident?
Can you only transfer to competitive surgery residencies from other surgery residencies? Or can you transfer from less popular programs to surgery as well?
Hey! How do you recommend staying in contact with residents like you did after your 3rd year?
You're a fucking killer Dr. Parker!
So glad you like this stuff Adbullah!!!
what are your thoughts on midlevel practitioners
some are great some are terrible. lol. it's all individual.
Your mustache in this vid looks like a fist bump
PLEASE Dr Parker, do a video on suturing and of course you should show some fucking nice tricks/clues not only for stupid beginners... hahaha ;D
YES ABSOLUTELY!!
Nice package in the frame 😋
haha
Have you paid off your student loans?
nope. 8 more years
222 90th? Lmao 229 is mean now
