Dude, ever since I found your channel a while ago, I have watched so many videos, and your positivity is so contagious, and I have been so inspired by your content. I love your work, amazing job, and congratulations on becoming a doctor. Keep it up, you got this!

I love your bro. You shouldn't stop please, keep uploading videos that inspire me.
Thank you so much!! We’ll keep them coming as frequently as possible! 🙏🏽
First comment!!! Congrats again fam, you've worked hard and it paid off.
Ayyyy! Thanks so much!!
been here since the “how to approach the mcat” video and i must say congratulations on how far you’ve come! i recently gotten out of the military and i plan on going back to school full time to eventually chase the dream of being a practicing anesthesiologist . just want to say thank you for all of the insight, as well as the long nights just retaining all of this info and taking this journey with you as well !
Thank you so much for your support since day 1!! It really means the world to me and I’m excited for you in your own journey to become an amazing anesthesiologist!!
Congratulations again. I’ve been following you and learned a lot of life lessons and education lessons. Please keep these valuable contents coming. I want to be an orthopedic surgeon as well. Good bless you brother.
Thank you so much!! I will definitely do everything in my power to keep these videos going. And I’ll be rooting for you in your own journey! 🙏🏽
Thank you for always pushing out content people need to see congratulation once again for the match!!!!!
So happy you enjoyed it! And thank you so much!! 🙏🏽
Doctor I am really inspired by you as I am also a medical student and I really thank you for what you teach us through your content. But never stop creating such a valuable content.
Thank you so much! These words mean the world to me and encourage me to keep going!
Another great video J.R! Although I’m a nursing student, I find your content extremely enlightening.
Thank you so much! I’m happy that my content is reaching other students and you are finding it helpful!
Very good points.
Thank you!!
i like your videos really! congratulation more times dear bro
Thank you so much!! I really appreciate your support!
I hope residency is going well, always remember you will be a great attending one day !
Thank you so much!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Great video Doc! How often did you go to the gym in medical school? Was it an everyday thing or just on the weekends?
I’m glad you like the video! It really depended on what was going on in med school. Some blocks or rotations are busier than others and I may not get to the gym for multiple weeks at a time, whereas other blocks I’m able to go 4-5 times per week!
Im a first year medical student and im reallllyyy struggling to study. Cant review powerpoints coz itd boring and passive, want to use anki for everything but its hzrd to navigate and search questions for the topics im studying
I really recommend using Anki to learn! Here’s a video I made outlining how I use it!

One of my professors told me that in medical school lack of sleep that equates to movement is detrimental and doesn’t help you in being a better physician. But lack of sleep that equates to progress is what you should strive for.
I’m not telling you not to sleep or sleep more. But ultimately most medical school students confuse movement with progress and we should strive for progress in anything we do in a medical profession. But all in all good take and good advice bro 💯.
Great point!! Often times the quantity of sleep will be lowered, but that’s why striving for high quality sleep becomes that much more important. That way you can be energized enough to excel in the classroom/hospital, and also get all the work done that you need to!
Congratulations Dr. Smith!
I didn't match yet..but trusting the Lord and doing my part as always..
Thank you so much! And your determination is admirable! I’ll be praying for you and I’m always here to answer any questions if they ever come up!
@@EvolvingMedic thank you so much!! Prayers are definitely needed and very much appreciated.. I'm doing step 3 soon, finishing a counseling diploma and applying for other jobs while waiting for God to keep leading me.. I'm interested in psych which is where I feel like God has been calling me for a long time. Head over to my page and u can watch my testimony. :)
Haha, I feel attacked, but thanks for sharing with us all the lessons learned.
The key takeaway for me: I must get a quality sleep to let my brain repair and retain important info.
That’s a great takeaway!
Currently switching to a normal circadian schedule and focusing on gettign regular sleep. I also have been on a 4-5-hour sleep schedule with MANY days of no sleep in an attempt to "catch up." It never pans out. I always end up crashing the next day or finding myself unable to study. And like JR mentioned, I rarely retain anything during those poor sleep days. Time to move on and take better care of myself. Medical school will have you doing insane things trying to cope haha.
How do you balance between content creation, medical school, and family?
Great question! I may need to do a full video on this topic, but in short, it’s having a very structured calendar where basically everything is scheduled!
Congratulations for matching to your first choice!! My question is how did you manage parenting and marriage while in Medical School?
Thank you so much!! And I will probably have to make an entire video to fully answer this question, but in short: communication, grace, and as structured a routine as possible with scheduled family time.
M1 here and up at midnight watching this video 😬
I’ve been there before! 😂
Hello Im a student from Brasil hoping to take usmle, do people discriminate against imgs in the us?
I’m glad to hear you’re preparing for the USMLE exams! Unfortunately it is more challenging for IMGs, but it’s not impossible! Certain specialties, like medicine, may easier than surgical specialties
@@EvolvingMedic thanks for replying. Personaly I wanna try internal med
Congrat🎉 Let me know the way I will contact you to ask for help for looking for research position during summer in the first year of IMG.
