Exactly, according to predictions this trend of understaffed health services will get worse with aging population yet entry into med school doesn’t account for that and it’s ridiculously hard add on top of that the high friction in the course and you can see the problem
Training more doctors is the not the problem. Each consultant ( any speciality) needs additional team members i.e juniors, nurses, theatre staff, out patient staff, radiographers, more theatres etc to work effectively. This will require billions of extra funding. Will everyone support that?

I think it’s great that you have taken time (which is a scare resource for you!) to give a candid, concise and empathetic resume of life as a junior doctor. You personify what is good about doctors and will no doubt be a role model for younger medical hopefuls. I hope you can also find a role where your clear ability to communicate is utilised as it is a real asset. Wishing you a fulfilled career in medicine (and btw your sister is a great lawyer!).
Thank you so much for the shout out, Sarah!!! 😊 Imposter syndrome is a problem that some (or perhaps a lot of?) PhD students face as well. I suppose at the end of the day, you just have they hired you for a reason. You just have to remember that you are qualified to be in charge and make decisions. You just have to take a step back and appreciate the fact that others place trust in you. 😊 With respect to rushing conversation, I guess when you don't have enough time, you just have to make sure everything you say has some kind of purpose, and you have to prioritise which conversation to have first. I face similar problem when I teach lab classes. As you would expect, a lot of students ask me for help. So I have to decide who and which questions deserve more of my attention. It is always a dilemma to me, and it is not a fair system, but I can't think of a better alternative. I feel it is one of those "no win" situation in life.
Fufu Fang you’re welcome! Thanks for your lovely comments ☺️that’s so interesting to hear that you face similar dilemmas in your work. And yes I can’t think of a better system either!
You’re such a natural presenter :-) Love all your insights about the medical profession. It’s not a career I ever considered at school but I would love to be able to help people in some capacity with their health & wellbeing.
Iam a doctor in the third year of my residency program and i can feel every word u have said . God bless u , and of course u r so special that God choosed u to do that tough job which requires many many qualities like wisdom , patience and mental , emotional ,and physical power .
Sarah I just came across your channel today and your videos seem quite valuable, especially for me as a medical student about to get started on the wards next year. keep them coming!
I am a student nurse and going to qualify next year February. Feeling incompetent is something am currently trying to work on because of the expectations I know ppl will have of me when I quality. Thanks for sharing some of the hardships you go through
Faith Akinola I hope your final year is going well! I think I was too hard on myself in my first few months of being a doctor, assuming that everyone thought I should know all the answers. I now realise just how junior I am and that asking for help and asking questions when you’re not sure is always safest for patients. I’m sure you will do brilliantly when you qualify 😘
Hello 😊 I love your honesty! I qualified as a psychological therapist last year and I experience imposter syndrome a lot! I’d love to see your best bits of being a doctor 😁 I love your channel!
I learned almost all the things on the job. Being a medical student, and being a doctor working in the hospital are the two opposite extremes of the same spectrum. It was a fantasy when in medical school. But hospitals are quite a different reality.
I am a medical doctor and fashion lover :D . I love watching your channel because I can experience life of a doctor in the UK and also get inspired by your outfit ideas - all at the same place. I would be happy if you could make a video about the work environtment, as in dealing with colleagues. Where do you get the motivation from? from colleagues or family or friends?
Spilling truths, I see. Compassion fatigue is real, but I think empathy has to factor as the biggest driver of motivation for doing this job. Really, empathy is key here. That should apply to patients and all medical staff. Sometimes, people forget that all the medical people are human too. They need a breather, work/life balance, and good support because this stuff can be intense. All that intensity is kind of gratifying, but you still need rest intervals thrown in there. I would think being understaffed is the worst. I'm a stickler for organization and reliable individuals. Shift work is absurdly unhealthy if it's a long term thing. That's the scientific truth. It disrupts circadian rhythm, skyrockets cortisol, elevates inflammation, on and on. Sleep and rest are both of critical importance to all medical staff. Dr's are not superhuman. They need to be in optimal health to do their job well. That's why it's important to take care of doctors, nurses, and well, everybody that plays a role here. It's all teamwork. 😁❤😁
Although not a Physician, due to family members being various types of Physicians and in the medical field ranging from nurses to billing coding etc. I can attest and witness to the fact that they’re overworked. The people that do not treat them as if human are the medical establishments and the hospital administrations. They do not need to be scheduled long shift work and have more breaks perhaps even several hours during the day to go home and take a “siesta”! The problem now that’s becoming prevalent is that some are so overworked, disgruntled, losing their empathy that they take it out on the patients! There are some that are downright scary out there! That’s why the public have such distrust. The best way , in addition to getting referrals from your own networking groups, is to go online as patients give reviews which is the BEST way to find out quickly if you want that Physician for your family! Anecdotal reports in my opinion, as well as many others, nowadays, are the BEST as the patients share their own experiences of their diagnosis, prognosis, etc. It is sad that especially during Covid our own government was paying hospitals large amounts of money to bribe them to put down “Covd” as “cause of death” which makes Greedy Hospital administrators succumb to lack of morals but downright lies and manipulation. I think every Physician should be required to watch “Patch Adams” in medical school and all medical schools be completely re-vamped if you will, to back to the root of all diseases and cures not treating the symptoms with drugs that have worst side affects than the disease itself and never cures! Just look at all the ads and commercials if you use any online streaming or go to someone’s home that hasn’t “pulled the plug yet” (Direct TV/DISH/cable tv) you’ll see they control the network... Approximately 100 Naturopaths are murdered annually in the USA and blamed on Suicide or an accident. Naturopaths are the healthiest Physicians around and are much happier than conventional Doctors . You are what you eat! People are getting sick and tired of not being treated, waiting on insurance companies to pay for the test they needed initially versus having to wait and go through the system of having other diagnostics that aren’t near as effective or helpful and the trips to the appointment as well as the costs! It’s a waste of their time and money and delays their health being optimal or their pain if chronic. With the population growing exponentially it requires even MORE patience and empathy to be a good Physician so if you are going into the field for status, money etc. then do the world a favor...DON’T! Patients can tell when a Physican isn’t caring, attentive, abusive etc. Just because they are not a Doctor doesn’t make them stupid. It’s equal respect and putting the shoes on the others feet ...that’s what’s lacking in society. The highest vibration is Love and if everyone takes the time to raise their vibrations this world will be a better place for all! I highly recommend all 4 of Dr. Steven Greer’s documentaries and his 2 new episodes on Gaia. Stay well and be smart❣️🥰
Such an interesting video! I would love to have become a doctor but I think some of the things you have mentioned would hold me back i.e. imposter syndrome & the responsibility. Oh well, maybe in another life!
Driving home from my new job on Friday, listening to Radio 2 and imposter syndrome was mentioned. The more I listened, the more I realised that I live with that every moment of the day. Feeling that I will be replaced. What doesn't help is that my Manager seems so emotionless and never talks to me I started in 19th June 2023 its now its August 28th 2023
It's such a hard thing to deal with isn't it? When I first learned about imposter syndrome, I felt so relieved to know it wasn't just me, it's a pretty universal experience.
@@SarahNicholls Knowledge can help a bit, but I have a theory that imposter syndrome is twinned with being an empath and a perfectionist. Lord help me 🙏 ps - Similar to you I have an hours journey each way, and have an early start.
@rectify2003 definitely! We feel things deeply and we want to get it right. I hope it gets easier as time goes on. That commute is tough!! Rooting for you 👏
Your videos are so helpful! Do you think it's possible to become a doctor with an autoimmune disease? It is something I would love to achieve! I was set on diagnostic radiography however the shift work has put me off as it would be forever and it would take its toll on my illness. When specialising in medicine the work life balance becomes a lot more manageable , am I right? I'm just wondering if shift work is very common for registar/specialty doctor? Although a GP would be another option for me considering it's regular hours. X
Jade Richards I have met many doctors with chronic diseases. It’s definitely possible to specialise in jobs which don’t work out of hours / do on calls. And it’s also possible to have your job adjusted for you if your health needs require it. I wish you all the best 🌟
@@Quake120 penetration testing sounds super fun. I just don't know if I would be good enough to do that or if I would have to choose something else within the field! I don't have any IT experience other than some interest in it.
Hey, I just recently graduated medical school. I have all the things you mentioned, eapecially the imposter syndrome. I already forgot most of the things I learned in medical school and there is no way I can have real patient, make a diagnosis etc. How did you overcome it? Im too scared to work
Hi Andreas, sorry to hear you are struggling. First of all CONGRATULATIONS on completing medical school!! You should be so proud of yourself, that is a massive milestone and honestly most of the hard work is behind you. When I started work as a doctor I felt so free knowing that I no longer had to attend lectures all the time and be constantly examined, as well as all my time outside of work being my free time... No more studying and revising! (well at least not as much as medical school). Secondly, please remember that no one expects you to be at consultant level. Everyone knows you are newly qualified when you start and they are there to help. As I'm writing this answer I'm actually thinking of lots more to say in answer to your question, so I'm going to record my answer and publish a video on it. All the best!
I can relate to everything you said. Especially imposter syndrome! And I hate rushing conversations but sometimes you have no choice 😩 great video as usual Sarah! Xx
If I ever come across someone who argues that there is no such thing as pretty doctors I am going to send them straight to this video. A gorgeous young redhead goes into the doctor’s office and tells the doctor that her body hurts everywhere she touches it. “Impossible!” says the doctor, “Show me.” The redhead took her finger and pushed on her left wrist and screamed. Then she pushed on her elbow and screamed even more! She pushed her knee and screamed, likewise she pushed her ankle and screamed. Everywhere she touched made her scream. The doctor said, “You’re not really a redhead, are you?” “Well, no” she said, “I’m actually a blonde.” “I thought so,” the doctor said. “Your finger is broken." --just goofing around. It's called a dumb blonde joke. ...
So true, patient responsibility can really take a toll on you.....sometimes patients forget that doctors are Humans too! 😔😔😔
I am a Medical student.
Thanks for sharing your experiences.we love you.😊
ronser rokpam aww thank you so much!! That means a lot ☺️ hope medical school is going well for you!
