Super excited to work with Vivo Surgery and trust me, it is one of the best ways to see inside the operating room virtually :)
Please interview Gastrointestinal surgeon
THATS SO COOL OMG
All
Not a medical student but totally fascinated with everything medical. I am studying to get a bachelor's in biology to pursue a career in the medical field.
Man….just the words “trauma surgeon” gives me stress lol. But he lives it every day! We are so lucky to have smart, capable people like him helping us in our most terrifying moments.
This video auto-played and after one minute I decided I couldn't watch it because of the flashback from when I was a stroke patient being treated by a trauma surgeon. Long story short I did not have a stroke but instead POTS. It took two years to get diagnosed.
@@sophieamarant1536 Wow!!
I have ultimate respect for anyone that can do this type of job. I would never be able to handle that kind of stress. Unbelievable 😮
I shadowed him my senior year in high school at the UofA for a project and got to watch him work and operate and he was a gracious host and great teacher.
Did you make it to medical school in the end?
People like this deserve the acclaim and respect that so called “celebrity’s” get. This guy is a real star
Completely agree!
Fr the west has such messed up standards. Worshiping the likes of the Kardashians or others while people like this get ignored
yeah mate!
Yeah, can’t wait to buy his next album.
@@jr5925 laugh track
His ADHD kicked in when he was talking about personal freedom and balance, having his extra degree in injury prevention…he forgot the question ❤️🤗I love it…I love being surrounded by amazing people like him, I just learn so much. I have adhd combined myself and I’m a future CRNA❤️💪🏼🫶🏻🙏🏼 Ty for what you do and Ty for sharing
Good luck on your journey
He's so amazing to listen to. Very intelligent man and his positions on things are on point.
What do you expect he is British
@@dylanwheater4375 have you ever been to Britain? Haha
It’s so admirable how knowledgeable and caring this man seems wow. Did not leave any questions unanswered, whether asked or wondered about
Fantastic work as always!
I was waiting for trauma surgery!! This is incredible thank you!
He seems to be a caring doctor who loves his job! I loved this interview!
Caring? Are you kidding? Very self-absorbed
@@willettej7988 I think he was genuinely answering the questions which by nature were self-reflective and job related. He is obviously caring and a model physician with extreme authenticity. Not sure "very self-absorbed" is how I would describe him. But anyway to each their own.
@@willettej7988 small-minded
Loved this interview. He's so passionate about his career and well spoken.
Love this interview so much. I’m an English RN / nurse practitioner (ED) married to a consultant general surgeon and I really enjoyed listening to Dr (Mr) O’Keeffe. He comes across as the sort of experienced, knowledgeable surgeon I would appreciate working with and learning from. His points about encouraging patients to move, be active in their own recovery and to accept that pain is normal after injury/ surgery are absolute gold and I hope more clinicians can adopt this position
Wow somehow I had the impression that nurses would rather be celibate than marry a Surgeon. 🤔😂😂...Just joking...Bless u both. 🙏
@@vivek27789 he wasn’t a surgeon when we met! 😂
Loved when he talked about his wife’s perspective on his work. As women going into the medical field who would still love children, that’s important to take into consideration.
Wow. This seems like a very wise and good doctor. I agree with him so much, I dont understand people driving motorcycles without a helmet.
I was immediately intrigued by perspectives shared within the first few minutes. This one just didn't disappoint. Thank you to both of you for this incredible video!
I loved hearing about trauma surgery. I think it's important to have a work life balance especially with a career as demanding as this.
He was one of my attendings on surgery rotation when I was a medical student in Dallas.
This was so great! I have been looking forward to a video with a trauma surgeon! He is very eloquent and seems like a really cool person. Keep up the great content Andy!! :)
Very well spoken and interesting person. The story he tells at 12:25 is something I first experienced as a medical student, really seeing a patient recover in an amazing way. I will never forget and still tell the story. It continues to happen and never gets old.
How does this guy not have more subscribers yet? He’s great!
I like these interviews! You can tell by the way he permitted himself a smile when he thought about people sawing off the fence post that he is in the right job. I'd HATE to have to look at that and at least a part of him thinks that that's a cool surgical case. Also liked the way he spoke about his wife. Having a good supportive partner is a huge asset in a stressful job. Liked the honest and insightful answers.
Hey Andy, love the videos, you've created a very unique set of resources and we are all very grateful!!
If I could just give a small piece of constructive feedback on a technical aspect of the videos, the audio levels on your 73Q series are pretty low, I could barely hear the interview! So if you could increase the audio gain levels it would make your videos fully perfect!! 😄
I like this doctor specifically
Trauma surgeons saved my life. My previous RN education made it possible to make it to the trauma center alive. I suffered a L flail chest following a crush injury. Not letting anyone manipulate my left arm or lift me off the road prevented lung puncture at the scene. This allowed me to be stabilized & 3D reconstruction to take place before surgery. The night before the scheduled thoracotomy, an aide managed to puncture my lung by careless transfer technique. I got a couple hours extra ventilator time out of it & a piece of bovine pericardium to repair the lung out of it. Ribs 2-7 w/ multiple fractures, 7 years ago. I broke the titanium plate on rib 6 the first year which would be tricky to replace so we've left it alone. Chest reconstruction hurts forever but beats the alternative!
I love how he talks about the 90's TV series "ER". One of my favorite shows of all time 😊 highly recommend watching! Great depiction of healthcare as a whole (best on the actual medicine - but not perfectly accurate, excellent on the social/societal aspects of healthcare and was very progressive for its time)
Waiting for Cardiothoracic Surgery!!! This was amazing :)
I turned that down and don't regret it.
16:30 😂 the highlight of the interview. This interview has me loving trauma surgery significantly more
Dr O’Keeffe for the win 🎉🎉🎉
43:05 okay... Dance/EDM was possibly the last thing i expected this very intelligent British vegetarian doctor to say LOL but i can respect it.
That was the last thing I expected him to say as well. But it made me happy cause I would have never guess a Dr (especially a surgeon) would be into trance and actually listen to it while in the OR.
Absolutely love this video! Thanks for making it Andy
Can you do podiatry next? I know it’s not an MD/DO specialty, but the work they do is amazing, especially in limb salvage environments. Given our aging and diabetic population, their role is becoming more and more important. I have some great suggestions for some great docs if you would like!
Suspected within the first sentence that he trained in the UK! Is it strange that I'm glad he still has our accent ahaha?
Introverted, procrastinates, and loves trauma? This is my kinda guy
A man dedicated to his work, as well and dedicated to his family and children. Very rare and admirable
7:45 agreed. Preventative care is highly undervalued bc of the way the health systems work with insurances. This must be a very interesting perspective because Dr. O'Keeffe is from Britain and has experience in different Healthcare systems.
10:30 this is also another amazing point that is not spoken about much either. This is a major cofactor that leads to burnout in many cases. Knowing how to develop a framework of thought that allows for one to develop resilience is extremely important to bring awareness to, especially in the acute healthcare space!
25:05 interesting insight
27:06 the med notes are another major factor of burnout because of how the insurance companies bill upon procedures/medicine and liabilities. Every detail has to be reported and this business part of medicine has to change too.
35:30 great point about the reality of opioid addiction
54:56 yes. one thing people don't think about too often is the reality of medicine. you have to think about what role you will be in the larger medical systems
Amazing interview ! Feeling very inspired by Dr.O'Keeffe's eloquence. Managed to answer a lot of questions about general and trauma surgery for me :)
i love these videos! you inspired me to create similar content but undergrad versions. i hope med school is going well for ya:)
Go for it!!!
What a terrific interview! Loved it. Helps a tonne with helping me make up my mind.
It's so funny how from majority of the interviews you've done, family and friends always turn to them for derm questions/advice. You should do questions with a dermatologist please!
Great video as always! Is it possible to organize an interview with a cardiologist (perhaps with one of its subspecialties f.e. interventional or imaging)? I'd think that a lot of your subscribers are interested/curious about this field as it is so popular, so an interview would be really insightful! Keep up the good work btw :-)
This was my absolute favorite questions video! ❤❤
Me too
It would be great if you could add the timestamps to all questions in the description!!
Interventional cardiology or EP next please!
Andy you are AMAZING! Excellent work.
Great video. Great specialist. Great speciality. Thanks again Andy!
Big big fan of the series! Any chance of 73 questions with a PA? From a current PA Student!
Truly an amazing person, a beautiful soul
Please do Interventional Cardiologist.
I don’t know how I made it to this video, but very interesting man with a great personality and obvious intellect
Do trauma surgeons or emergency doctors in the US worry about their own safety against assaults from the patients family?
3 years ago I wanted to get into emergency medicine but this was a big concern of mine as a woman. I asked my uncle who was head of ER in a hospital and he advised me strongly against it due to concerns about my own safety, so I ended up choosing something where I'm less likely to be in a violent situation, dentistry!
I live in Jordan and I'm wondering whether this is a problem across the world or is it just where I live
Thanks for loading this ..so interesting and what a lovely humble man . Great he is doing his job choice 😅 as he has the right personable skills ..
Very insightful! Truly enjoyed the entire video 😊
Brilliant people are a true blessing to society.🙏🌹
Great Q&A, very informative.
I was wondering why this video specifically was on my recommended then he said “I studied at Edinburgh” and I thought ah that’s why… It’s my first day at Edinburgh medical school.
Please do 73 questions with a cardiologist .
This content is GOLD ❤️
Amazing video! Can you do a PM&R physician next?
I Second this! Currently what I’m interested in
I was waiting for this one for MONTHS, he's everything I wanna be and do but more. I love watching your videos!
What a GREAT interview and response
I don't text and drive, ever. Nothing is that important that it can't wait and if it is, I pull over. Just had to say that because not everyone texts and drives. Especially because I also cycle and see how dangerous texting and driving and RIDING is.
This…the first time I shadowed a trauma surgeon I immediately fell in love with critical care surgery.
i go to Edinburgh Medical School (in my final year) so this felt surreal to watch!
What an interesting & thoughtful guy
This is great ,one of the best interviews
What a lovely man and interesting chat!!
he was well spoken.
Great video!! Would love to see one about Pediatric surgery
can we have a cardio thoracic surgeon one too?
Great video! Looking forward to a plastics surgery 73 questions
He's a genius since 15
Very interesting and well spoken man
Great interview!
What a great man! Thank you!
do Acute Care Surgeon next please
The surgeon is well articulated....
I think you mean that he is articulate.
Any chance you could do a perfusionist?
Hey ! Great videos as always !! Could you do 73 questions with an endocrinologist please I am seeking this specialty
low yield but nice try!
Interesting interview; thanks!
brooooooo, he listens to edm trance music in the OR 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
There was an episode of Untold Stories of the ER about the guy with the fence post through his chest/shoulder. The guy came in talking and stuff
Thank you for these videos!!! God bless doctors always!!
These are so helpful! Thank you! Why 73 questions specifically?
Unfortunately I find it pretty easy to ignore my thirst receptors. It's just not a strong enough discomfort for me to keep me well hydrated. There's a bunch of adverse effects that I get from the mild dehydration. So I do have to actively make myself pick up the bottle or glass to ensure I'm hydrated.
I loved this . Excellent
Can you imagine being a trauma surgeon? You get the worst cases and have to think quickly on your feet. I don't think I could ever be a doctor. I'm just not cut from that cloth that can handle that level of stress.
You never actually know until you try 🤷
Know yourself.
Do Oral and Maxillofacial surgeon!
Explains why severe injuries are more likely to be a death sentence in the UK.
Please interview with a Critical Care Medicine physician
Loved the video..loved loved it..
1:16 It is sad that he basically says that US gun laws keep him in business.
Well, they keep him busy. How often do you think gunshot victims are well-insured?
Just for fun but the water question kinda anwsered much the same =)) almost every physicians said 8 cups or when you feel thirsty =)) not vary like andy said :3
Please interview oncosurgeon plz
All of these are very interesting.
bruh, so the United States is the only country in the world where you have to go to undergrad first to be able to go to medical school?
Enjoyed it
I am a Law Student. But, and I have no idea why, Trauma surgery fascinates me, just like Neurosurgery. When I watch Med Students on TH-cam, I am always disappointed when they don't pick these specialties like COME ON, LIVE MY DREAM
Why Did you not pursue your dream?
@@marionharris5952 I wasn’t good at science and never thought of studying medecine. Law is my first dream. All is good, no regret. But I admire doctors very much.
@@MC-cg2rr I’d like to become some sort of doctor (not sure of what speciality, obviously) but I’m a high school dropout, so… yeah. Not gonna happen
@@LewisLivingLifewhy not go back and get your ged ?
@@josiimacias2119 Thanks for your comment, lol. Over here in the uk, you take a number of exams called GCSEs which are the equivalent to a ged over there in the states. After that, you take your a levels. It would mean excelling in all of those exams, plus, getting a score of at least 2890 in the UKCAT
can you do a OMFS?
miami and los angelos will expose me to alot of trauma...good to know...violent places...so basically cities
I love that he's a vegetarian !!!
Yes representation! I’m a vegetarian too but I’m new at if only for about 3 months now but it pushes me to continue seeing others do it like they get why I did it if that makes sense
Why?
