Thanks for showing how much sacrifice for you and your family it takes to be a surgeon. Never knew all the stuff my ortho did before my clinic appointment. Wow! One Love
Fantastic video, Dr. Webb! Do you think you could do a Day in the Life video, but also include what you do when you get home from work (e.g. studying/research, how you prepare for cases, balancing time with the family, destressing activities such as playing games or watching TV, etc...)?
Thank You Dr Webb , U r a Huge Asset to Society Sir ,,, I appreciate U allowing Us to See What Ur Skills & Challenges R In Ur Career,,, Ur a Great Young Dr ! 😊🤙🏼🕊️✨
Fantastic work, Dr. Webb! I often see these types of foot infections and greatly appreciate my orthopedic surgery colleagues when the patient requires a BKA. 🙌
Thanks for making the videos Dr. Webb. I got a lot of inspiration from you. I went back to school in my 40s. I’m taking prerequisite classes and dream to be a nurse. I have two little children at home it’s not that easy for me. However , your videos give me a lot of motivation to not giving up and pushing myself to move on. Thank you.
I got to experience orthopaedic surgery first hand after breaking both my tibia and fibula a very short time ago. Kudos and thank you for helping those of use who experienced unexpected trauma. I have nothing but good things to say about the team that took care of me.
I’ve been at a community college for the past couple years, and recently just transferred to USC for biochemical engineering. My goal in the beginning was to major in chemistry and then apply for medical school. During the application process for transferring to uni, I started having self doubt and a lack of belief in myself that I could actually make it happen, as well as factoring in the years it would take to finish med school and residency. So that is why I decided to major in biochemical engineering because I lost interest in becoming a physician. But every time I watch one of your videos and other physican’s TH-cam channels, I can’t help but get inspired again which makes me slightly consider medical school again gives me the belief that I could do it. Thanks Dr Webb for such inspiring videos.
Tremendously beautiful video, Dr. Webb! Excellent introduction as well. From a currently Practising Physician in Nigeria, future ER Doc in the US, sending you love 🙏🏿
Wow u are so busy. What made u decide on trauma surgery? We are Blessed we have them. I'm sure theirs times when u get a case and have to step back and fig how on earth are u going to put that person back together. Your videos are greatly appreciated. Thank u
Loved the video. I have EDS hyper mobility. Hopefully watching your videos will help me understand more of why I have so much pain in my joints. And why they dislocate
Great video! I was wondering if you could make a video on prenvention, surgery, consequences of hip fracture (mainly for seniors). Also, I was wondering if partial hip replacement have a higher rate of dislocation thant THR? Looking at your workload, I could do maybe 10% of what you do. I have a lot of respects for you hard working surgeons!
Very eye opening and educational for me Doctor! Why the partial hip replacement on the elderly dementia patient. Is that typical for someone like that?
Great question. We fix hip fractures to get patients up and mobilized. Otherwise, patients are a very high risk for blood clots, infection, UTIs, bedsores.
I can commiserate. As an ID epidemiologist these days, it’s 24 h/d, 7 d/week. But I frequently do not need to go anywhere or do surgery-just need to control an epidemic!
Make a video of everyone's responsibilities during surgery that assist you in yours . Not enough people appreciate all the work the assisting professionals do for surgeons I would assume .
What do you think of the process in the U.K whereby any surgery that can wait for the morning, waits for the morning. Obviously if it is time critical they are seen. But if it can wait it waits for the morning. As studies have shown higher success rates during daytime? Don’t believe you do this in US?
Hi Dr.Webb, out of curiosity, now that you're an attending doctor with your own practice what is your relationship with the hospital? Are you essentially just a paid contractor that sees patients on the hospitals behalf? Why do doctors with their own business still end up being on call in the hospital if the hospital has employed doctors instead? Thanks for all your great videos, they are refreshing and are a great contrast to my career path as an Architect here in NYC!
Great question. I’m in private practice. Usually we get privileges to operate at certain hospitals. I operate and do surgery at about 3-5 hospitals on a weekly basis, depending on the complexity of the case, insurance, equipment needed, etc. Most people take call to earn extra money and to help build their practice. Hope this helps
Hey dr webb loved the video! Only comment is sometimes the edited medical breakdowns are hard to read given the background or the font or color of the text, maybe that’s just a me thing but thought I’d share if others have the problem reading it too 👍🏼
When you are in surgery do you have one of your nurses take video for you/could you make a video of the “behind the scenes” of your video making process-that would be super cool!
Dude I don’t know how you can do a week at a time. We get 15-30 calls for outpatients and 1-4 admits per day (1-3 calls overnight). I’d die if I had to do that for a week! Keep well man.
Was that a hip replacement surgery? I’ve got rheumatoid arthritis and have had both knees and left shoulder reverse shoulder replacement surgery. I’m only 30 😢
i also wanna hear from your anesthesiologists on what you and him do can you tell us on video what and how is roll is in the or when hes with you if somthing runs south or i should say the wrong direction
Nice to see African Americans in such high positions like these. I would love to see a video of how you navigated racism and microagressions in the medical world and how you overcame them if any.
The number of patients per day blows my mind. You can’t get much more than 15 minutes to assess, diagnose, and form a plan. Plus charting, prep, calls, etc. sounds nuts.
Got to be efficient but I also make sure all of my patients don’t feel rushed and have enough time to ask questions. This sometimes means staying late until 6/7pm to finish up
I didn’t mean to imply you aren’t thorough, just that it seems like a lot of work. I’m not in medicine so in my world, a busy day is having more than 5 meetings.
Can you explain why the ER docs specifically even bother to call a consult when it comes to “basic” fractures such as the first 3 (hip fracture, ankle dislocation, and one more i cant recall)? I worked as an ER tech (the one putting the splints on the patients when doc says do so)… and i know exactly what splints would be needed in those cases (obviously id wait for a doc to confirm). Do the er docs need your “permission” to administer (or order me to administer) a splint? Or do they only call you when they are concerned about other factors?
Ah. First case (elderly lady with hip fracture) is getting surgery so that falls into the “other factor” group as thats outside the scope of an ER (and obv requires additional expertise).
All those patients were operative so the call was necessary. If they think it’s non op, sometimes they won’t bother me in the middle of the night and just splint, send to my clinic
Hello Dr. Webb I was just wondering about something and I hope you can give me the answer because I'm afraid to ask my dad but do we have a bone in our wiener I mean a bone that is soft and then get hard? Because sometimes I over 🧽 clean myself if you know what I mean and it's incredible how hard my thing gets and when I bend it it feels like it has a bone. It would have to have a bone? right? otherwise if you were going to put it in a girl it would have to be really stiff and the only thing that could do that would be like a inflatable bone 🦴
Question: if u work in private practice, how and why do you take call in a hospital? Is it for more pay or bc u like it? So are u technically also an employee of the hospital system as well?
How do they expect surgeons to be super precise and have zero issues when they barley get any sleep. You'd think you'd wanna have a good 8 hours and literally everything before a surgery
The ER Doctor does not perform major orthopedic surgery. As terrible as it sounds, a hip fracture is not an emergency that has to be repaired this minute. They have to run lab work, chest x-ray, hip x-ray, EKG. If the labs or EKG show any abnormalities, a Consult order for Medicine, and/or Cardiology to review and examine the patient have to be coordinated also. Depending on the abnormality and whether it needs correcting before surgery can effect the timing too. Also have to coordinate with the operating room for a time, and have an anesthesiologist available, as well. Lots of behind the scenes stuff goes on before someone gets to surgery.
I’ve thought about getting a driver. Maybe in the future. Especially for one of my clinics which is almost an hour away. I don’t use a scribe. Plan is to get a PA/Np within the next year
FYI- if you say AM, you don’t need to specify ‘in the morning”. It’s not like there could be an 8am in the evening. Other than that though, great video!
Hey Dr. Webb I'm not really sure who's editing your videos currently. But I'm certain I could do a better job. I have some completed projects I could show you if you're interested. I would love the opportunity to do so for the experience and not looking for reimbursement. Let me know if this interests you! I believe with higher quality editing and better marketing strategies I could take your channel to the next level. Been a subscriber for a minute keep up the great work.
Hope you all enjoy the video! Comment, like, subscribe so I can create more content! 🙏🏾
Thanks for showing how much sacrifice for you and your family it takes to be a surgeon. Never knew all the stuff my ortho did before my clinic appointment. Wow! One Love
Absolutely enjoy your videos. It reminds me of what life would have been like had I done the surgery route, as I was tempted to.
yes we wanna see sugrey tools int he or to before sugrey i wanna see how they set up
Really appreciate you showing us an actual surgery! I know it’s not easy to get permission for that type of footage but it’s awesome!
Fantastic video, Dr. Webb! Do you think you could do a Day in the Life video, but also include what you do when you get home from work (e.g. studying/research, how you prepare for cases, balancing time with the family, destressing activities such as playing games or watching TV, etc...)?
Did u not watch the freaking video he was working out in the beginning
@@loganjackson8667 Did u not read the freaking comment, I'm referring to post work, not 5 AM.
I’m a premed student and seeing what you do is a big inspiration for me.
This video was a real treat - especially with the footage of the surgery. Thank you!
Yeah, i liked that part more
Yes internal medicine-Trauma Anesthesia
Thanks for sharing. I’m sure vlogging a week when you are on call and in clinic is insane. But we really enjoy the glimpse into your crazy life.
Thank You Dr Webb ,

Thank you for all you do! As an ER doc, I am one of those people that end up waking you up at night. Sooo sorry but thank you for all your help!
Thank you.

I love TRAUMA MEDICINE!!!
Love these day in a life videos. Im just about to become a resident in T&O so these provide an invaluable insight. Keep up the great work!!

that's crazy the guy leaving with unstable ankle fracture
Wow, didn’t know surgery can get that rough in terms of how much force the surgeons use to move stuff around.

👍👍👍👍👍 Great video
Dr. Webb, do u ever get tired of the OR?
Was that a hip replacement surgery? I’ve got rheumatoid arthritis and have had both knees and left shoulder reverse shoulder replacement surgery. I’m only 30 😢
Partial hip replacement
Just curious, do you deal with any kinda sports related injuries...ACL injuries Achilles etc??? If so can you put some footage up when you can..
I was linked to him before and someone broke the connection.
Any updates on the foot guy?
Hey Dr. Webb, if I fly out to Texas can I shadow you?
Hopefully no post complications.
They will happen. Just need to know how to deal with them and manage them effectively. Unavoidable at times
i also wanna hear from your anesthesiologists on what you and him do can you tell us on video what and how is roll is in the or when hes with you if somthing runs south or i should say the wrong direction
you and him are closest for the sugrey right sir if something is not right
i like looking at the tools also for anesthesiogists what do you and him say when somthing is wrong
do you no the stuff dr webb that the anesthesiogists use
Seems like they shouldn’t call you at night unless it’s an emergency.
Does ortho not have admitting privileges? Why do the pts have to be admitted to medicine if they're surgical?
That’s how it goes in private practice and what I prefer
Nice to see African Americans in such high positions like these. I would love to see a video of how you navigated racism and microagressions in the medical world and how you overcame them if any.
I know you woke up at 4:44
Lol
What's it like in that surgical gear? Any airflow in there?
Yes there is a fan that cools it down

Question: if u work in private practice, how and why do you take call in a hospital? Is it for more pay or bc u like it? So are u technically also an employee of the hospital system as well?
Most people take call to build their practice, earn call pay and also additional pay from surgeries, consults. It can be very lucrative
How do they expect surgeons to be super precise and have zero issues when they barley get any sleep. You'd think you'd wanna have a good 8 hours and literally everything before a surgery
Is it possible to get called while in the OR? How do you handle your regularly scheduled cases when on call? Do you do less scheduled cases?
Good question. I typically don’t lessen my schedule. This week I did however to avoid burnout and being overworked
Damn Orthopedic Surgeons work out alot lol
How long will you have to be on call throughout your career?
For trauma call: Until I get tired of it lol
For my patients and practice: forever lol
How many days off do you get post call doc?
None lol I can take a day off if I want.
Hi! So a person that fractured the hip at 4 am has to wait until the morning to have ir fixed or the ER doctors fix it?
