Fellow intern here (Not OBGYN) but just wanted to let you know how much your videos help me to normalize my feelings/experience in residency. So much of what you have to say is soooo relatable and it's encouraging to *really* hear that I'm not alone in my experience. The highs are high but the lows are real low. Thank you for taking the time to make videos, I truly don't know how you do it, you're incredible.
Rachel Southard, an inspiring physician, entrepreneur, youtuber, chef, and creator. This should be your bio headlight, girl!!!!! You do it all!! I love it. Period🎉
I know youll go far. This world needs OB/GYNs like you. Ive had 2 in my 60+ yrs and i miss and appreciate both of them. God bless you richly. He definitely had a special call for you...and you answered it.
I'm an MS3 and will be applying to OBGYN in the fall and I love your videos. It's helpful to see how things are because soon it will be my life. You are doing a great job! You've got this.
I have to share. I was in the pediatric ER early Friday evening until late Sat morning with my son, who fell, smashing his head on concrete, with concussion and concerns he seriously harmed his neck. For hours we were in a room with no help at all, with him in a very uncomfortable collar. Thinking about your videos, I have never been so patient in an ER. I was more aware of what all the doctors were doing. I could hear other cases, including a case were a toddler probably didn't make it and had to be med-flighted to a bigger hospital. I was so tired and uncomfortable but just kept reminding my very impatient and grumpy son that we should be grateful he wasn't the priority because that would mean he was in the most danger. Normally with something medical with my kids, I panic and get very impatient. Thinking of your vlogs, I had no impatience at all.
Ever since my sister’s match day a few weeks ago I have been BINGING your videos- you are the best! I’m looking to go pre-med next year and you (along with a ton of other great MD/DOs) are such great inspiration… thanks for this amazing content!
When you ran out of the room and back in I giggled (: Then it was the girl the fit with the super cute scrubs on you. I so enjoy your vlogs thank you for taking the time to share first your medical school journey and now your residency. I am here for it all.
I’m working as a ob nurse resident at a teaching hospital and I feel like the first job after school emotional experience is so similar to resident doctors but I can’t believe how much more y’all work! It’s crazy! It’s really eye opening for me.
Your editing has evolved so much just like you Dr. Southard. How you continue to do residency and give us a glimpse into your experience while doing everything that you do. I’m proud of you. Another TH-camr I watch religiously made a sad video voicing they’re not going to be posting too much during residency. So just the fact that you can do all that you do, and keep up with your fan base. Keep it up. 🎉 -Clint from Alberta 🇨🇦
Your videos bring mixed emotions. It's a love/hate thing. My match day was 38 yrs ago and I'm now retired, but these videos take me back to my intern year, very long hours, and the long dark days of January it seemed there would be no end. The angst comes right back, not as intensely, but in both good and not-so-good ways, internship/residency is a life-altering experience.
as someone who occasionally naps their car during lunch break i find just laying across the back seats is far more comfortable than the seats down/legs in the trunk position (and also saves putting the seats up and down and also climbing in the trunk 😅 back seats>>>💯🥳❤
Idk how true this is, but I heard about a study with WWII vets who had shell-shock (PTSD) and they found that knitting and mindfulness meditations had similar impacts on stress levels and blood pressure compared to a control. Again, I haven't read the study, but in my head, I believe it's true (as a fellow knitter, it makes me feel better about spending all my time knitting)
hey I remembered you said that you were looking for suggestions for new vid ideas. I would love to see some of your hobbies (other than going to the gym) like maybe you have a signature dish and you could do a fun cooking video with your boyfriend or maybe you go out and try new hobbies like rock climbing or something. I know your extremely busy already but if you get a chance I think it would make an awesome video
I hope my Hero is having a Great week. You inspire me to do better, go out and conquer the world, and be productive. You're an awesome person 😍 Btw did you mean VAS IST DAS (THAT IS THAT) 😅😅😅
As a Finnish doctor I really feel for my U.S colleagues. It’s not normal to work 50+ hours per week not to mention the debt. Also, it should not be minimum wage it’s ridiculous. Anyways, love ur videos. Stay strong ❤!
I do something called plastic canvas, it's basically the same idea as cross stitch, but use wool and a plastic canvas that's much bigger than cross stitch. Lol hope that makes sense 😊 it soothes the mind and ❤ EDIT: I had a sub total abdominal hysterectomy with right ovary and tube removed in 2015 because of endometriosis. 8 years later, the endo is worse than ever.
i was getting excited that the video would be coming today at 19:30 but then i came back and realised its scheduled for tomorrow😩 another day wait i guess!
I loved everything in the video as usual, but I HAD to point out that at 10:14 the cat replied "ya!" to your question 😍😻 (Also, planning to get a few new pairs of scrubs in the near future so that code will be very helpful -- thanks!!)
I love that lemon Alfredo from Trader Joe’s! Do you see any endometriosis these days in your residency? I’m about 6 weeks out from my diagnostic laparoscopy which finally gave me the diagnosis after over 10 years of advocating for myself. As a fellow healthcare provider, I love watching and hearing about your work! Next time I spend money on scrubs, I want to try Jannuu! Currently always wearing the scrubstar sets from scrubs and beyond, some straight leg and some jogger with v-neck tops.
And it would be nice if u have tips on productivity and how to be a person who won't just sit and do nothing. Because I struggle with time going by me while I just do nothing basically. Maybe you can do video on it when u can
For everybody's information, the discovery plus documentary about Estonia is quite conspiratorial and the theories presented has been debunked by experts.

The orange cat meowing is the best! Thank you so much for including him. It’s like a boost of serotonin!! Very needed. Thank you.
Been watching you since I was in High school now I'm a first year medical student, thank you for being soo inspirational :)

Do NOT worry about your videos becoming repetitive or monotonous
Awesome Doc 🐜
50% Jaanuu color + 50% Rachel's natural glow = 100% beautiful :)

Please know you are a huge inspiration to women, and make me feel even more proud of being a woman

I love Jaanuu, they are the only scrubs I wear because they are so comfortable but they discontinued my favorite scrubs! I hope they bring them back.
Keep adapting Rache! You will still remember to fight for change. Both things are necessary!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
You seem so happy :) love this video for you
OK FINE I will go purchase a bunch of Jaanuu, but only because you're pullin my leg here
cholula is honestly the best!!! Love the new scrubs 😍
