    I’m 23 years old. Been facing many challenges adapting as an adult. I’m passed all the bull shit and just want to start my career. I can’t say I’m interested in anything else as I am in this. I really want to turn my life right now. This is where I want to be . If you see this I want you to pray I make to be what I want. I don’t feel like I’m smart enough but I’m giving this a try .

    I love this channel too. I am considering multiple specialities (taking prereqs now though). I work with computers now and I work with AI. I have considered entering into neurology + AI, but I'm also really attracted to emergency medicine and maybe.. surgery. Don't know yet!
    I had a good experience with my neurologist. Neurology is an incredibly fascinating subject.
    Thanks again Dr. Webb!

    • @antoniowebbmd
      @antoniowebbmd  6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      No prob! Neurology is a great field and so is EM. I wouldn't worry too much about trying to pick a speciality. Most people don't decide until their last year of medical school so you have plenty of time. Most people even change their minds like 3 or 4 times like I did:) Just focus on doing well in your pre reqs and everything else will fall in place!

    Thank you so much for this informational video. I am currently in undergrad and I'm having a hard time deciding exactly what I want to do (I'm a Psych major). I know I want to work with children, but it's hard finding the time to do research about all the different career paths. I have dwindled it down to pediatric neurology so far & your video helped!

    • @issasecretsecret7814
      @issasecretsecret7814 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      since you are undergrad you have time to figure out what you want. i thought i wanted to be one thing till I shadow different specialities and fell in love with neurology and ENT. however i know once i do med school and rotations I may fall in love with something else. So dont focus too much on what you want to be right now just know whether or not you want to be a PHYSICIAN as a whole.

      And fyi neurosurgeons do surgery on both brain and spine so therefore no need to specify spine surgeon
      And if you do both neurosugery and neurology residency and become board certified it will take you about 11 years after medical school to do so

      I actually just watched a video on specialties of neurology. They are called subspecialties and there is a subspecialty for dementia! So Neurology is your specialty and Dementia would be the subspecialty. Again, I'm not 100% sure. However, I hope this helps answer your question!

    I'm a 4th year engineering student. I've always been interested in neurology and my dream has been medical school for as long as I can remember, but I'm scared to enter the medical profession since it seems to take away from family life and be quite the strenuous ordeal. I get excited just thinking about neurology but the thought of going into medical school and not being good enough, or not liking the lifestyle, terrifies me. Any advice?

    • @justin6945
      @justin6945 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Same I’m scared to go into med school considering myself not a great math student. To become a doctor you need to know a lot of math and science but math is always my weak subject. I want to be a neurologist or a anesthesiologist and it requires a lot of work and study.

    This is great! I'm a 26 yr old college student. I'm being referred over to a neurologist. I've never seen one before. I experience chronic pain. (I was diagnosed via a CT scan with Osteoarthritis in both jaw joints. Left side extremely affected, right side, mildly affected.) I had never thought my young age I have arthritis. Well, the pain goes diffuse. My jaw swells. My legs hurt and my knee locks up in cold weather. My hands and feet tingle. My back feels like electric shocks and bee stings. It's real awkward. I went from 130 lbs down to 100 lbs. Hopefully I can figure out why I suffer with these things.

      @antoniowebbmd  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello,
      I don't have much experience in that arena but I would say the best way to get into a US residency is to find programs that accept foreign graduates and rotate there. If you can get more when one rotation set up, that would be better. Long as you get your foot in the door then work extremely hard/make connections then that may help. Hope this helps and let me know if you have any other questions!
