Hey guys! Just got back from a very busy shift to all these wonderful comments - thank you 🧡 Thank you for continuing to support this channel and watching even after so long. It feels good to be back. I’m reading through all the comments but it’s taking me ages, I’ll get there eventually! Have a great day and I’ll see you in the next one :)

Hey what car do you use? Is it a Mercedes A class hatchback?
bless ya so much hard work to become an dr I'm sure in end your get there i hope one day to help teach medical students as one of there body donors as I'm thermally ill young man so decided to give consent to body donation in hope to help teach medical students Anatomy i wish all well in there studies and pray you carry on to become great dr take care
You can just feel the vibes being different being a doctor from being a med student. Exams aside, being a student is the best thing in the world but you only REALLY notice once the stress of real life begins.
Me who studies and work for tuition fees at the same time and getting depressed while thinking about money problems at bed.
My stress is beyond anyone else's
@@medicalh7990 had 2 jobs during my last semester. But the stress of Having to show up each day to perform perfectly is a whole other level. At uni, each day you chose to go there. And you have way more freedom to plan your time.
@@MrManultra I had to show up there and perform perfectly to get some scholarship otherwise I wouldnt have enough budget for uni. It is goddamn expensive
@@MrManultra I wouldn't say you have more freedom to plan your own time if you are work full time throughout, meanwhile after graduating you are able to chose where to work, hours (when signing contracts) and you dont have to juggle your degree and working for a living (plus that extra money doesnt hurt)
I’ve gotta say, I was worried what the transition from med school to being a doctor meant for the channel, but your videos now feel like they have such a greater degree of depth as we see you struggle with real REAL world stuff in medicine. Your continued dedication to upload as you transition into your new phase of life is inspiring.
Love this comment, seriously thank you for brining us along every step of the way. It's very insightful and we appreciate the realness.
i started watching your videos when i was in year 9 and now i’ve just got an offer for medicine at uni !!! thank u for still making videos and motivating me in my pursuit of medicine! all the best in your career
no way... congrats!
It's been a long time....... Wellcome back kharma
Exactly 👍🏻
The ability of doctors to deal with such severe conditions yet continue on their job makes them special! And I guess you are one of them!!
Going through the same pain we all do when starting nights, it's just a matter of finding your own system that works for you. Good job bro.
a couple years back I watched your videos, and studied along with your study with me videos as a premed, now watching this as a medical student about to finish first year, I see how far we've come and it really feels so good. Thanks for creating such content, it is truly inspiring❤
The wait was definitely worth it because you’re killing it with the video quality and interesting use of B-Roll.
P.S. More cooking vlogs please. Also, you were great on the stage btw.
It's amazing to see how far you've come! So proud of you ⚡
i loved it when you spoke about how you just switch off after a cardiac arrest, especially when the patient has passed away, and move on with the next job or task. I am a third year student nurse on placement in A+E and saw a cardiac arrest (using a LUCAS-2 CPR machine) and unfortunately the patient passed. The moment for me of "so I'm just going to go back now" and returned to the busyness of the department felt very unreal and a bit odd. Not one patient i spoke to or cared for knew of what i just saw and that i was just my usual bubbly self. It is a very strange experience to have especially in learning how to give yourself that time to understand and acknowledge what just went on.
Although I'm not a Nurse, I can relate to feeling that same odd and unreal feeling. I was a home health aide before Covid came around. I was on my way to a clients house but when I went in, I unfortunately found them dead on their living room floor. She was young so it was quite the shock. I still think about it today😔 After calling an ambulance and going through a series of questions with my company and paramedics, I had to go to my next client. I felt like I wasn't attached to my body. The only thing I can compare it to is the out of body experience.
Anyways, I appreciate all of your hardwork and dedication. You guys do so much for others. You truly are a hero ❤
@@cccccccccccc242 I am so sorry you had to walk in on what is a traumatising situation and lose someone that way. These memories never truly leave you even when you do indeed have to quickly push it away and carry on, but our resilience is also what makes them. The whole experience is such an interesting thing in that there isn't a particular word or way to describe them.
Buuut on the other hand, thank you so much for your kind words 🥺they really help keep me loving what i do ❤
@@YourEverydayDeveloper you are so so right. In the moment it's so hard to know how you should be thinking or feeling. Am I feeling enough? Am I not caring enough? How should i feel right now? This doesn't feel right. Is this normal?
So that moment of carrying on like normal almost feels wrong, because of the heaviness of such circumstances, that it not only might feel inhuman but just rude too. Everyone's experience of it is so different which is also what makes it human.
yes you become bery hardened to emotion because if you dont your critical thinking goes out the window & you loose focus sadly you learn to turn it off on emotions like a switch have the baility to talk to client one minute next passed away & having to move on wihtout a thought til end of shift but thier will always be cases you will always remember & never forget
The fact that doctors or anyone in health care have to see someone struggling to be alive but then after that having to move on with your tasks like you didn’t just see someone dying few moments ago. Like that doesn’t sound like something normal but sadly for people in this field it would become kind or a norm😢 hats off to yall
Watching your study with me videos and following along with you, makes me so happy to see that your hard job has payed off. 🙏
Hi, my niece qualified at Kings just over 3 years ago, first job has a junior doctor was at Pinderfields, Wakefield, on the covid ward! She’s now doing surgery at York hospital & is absolutely flying, we are so proud of her, such an amazing young woman, who is going to be a fantastic surgeon ♥️ so proud of you all, doing amazing work 🥰
I just started my night shifts and I felt so understood by this video. First night was awful. I then decided I wouldn’t let it be that awful… it’s getting better every day.
Nassir i would love to listen to you talk about when you don’t know what to do, or the difficulties of dealing with specialists
So happy to see this video! I'm not in medicine but actually a meteorologist, and I love seeing night shift vlogs because I work rotating shifts too, and it's so nice to not feel alone. Everything you mentioned that sucks about night shifts is SPOT ON haha. Wish I could say it gets easier, but being able to commiserate with others and loving what you do helps!
I am not a medical student but your videos are just so surreal and a breath of fresh air, good to see you back
Retired RN here (ICU/Surgical Recovery) at a large charity hospital in New Orleans in the 70’s. Nights for me were always brutal & could get very busy, especially when we acted as overflow for
the ER during disasters. I got physically ill & always slept deeply for 12 hours+ just to function another night. Don’t like chocolate much either & so happy to hear someone else say so! Enjoy your videos; they bring me back to a difficult yet fabulous time in my life. You seem a great doc & a gentleman & of course handsome. (I might be an oldy but goody, but not blind!) New sub 😊
I started clapping at the end of the speech , we need the full video.
Great to have you back!⚡
as a pharmacy student on rotations in the hospital with abunch of medical residents, its so fascinating to just listen and learn about so many new things. such a cool experiecne.
Oh my god I love you! I can't get enough. Personally I loved my labour room night shift. It was so unpredictable but so rewarding when you finally get the babies out! I can't to hear more!
Just subscribed to your channel, what a lovely guy, and great Dr!
Before I became disabled I worked full time night shifts as a SCA in a care home.
No real breaks or downtime, every moment we weren’t dealing with residents, it was cleaning schedules and care plans.
Those in the NHS certainly deserve your down time, your an asset however I wish those in other aspects of the care sector could be looked after as well.
Can’t wait for your next video x
Yes!! I've been re-watching your other videos these last couple of weeks, hoping you'd upload a new one and it's finally here!!! Thank you so much!! ⚡️⚡️⚡️
Love from Greece 🇬🇷
Feels really great to watch a video of yours on a Thursday morning. Welcome back doctor K. 🎉🎉
Wow I'm so happy that you posted!!!
Your older videos have been motivating me a lot nowadays... Thanks 🌹
this video really reminded me how much I love you’re TH-cam videos, please don’t ever stop making these videos i love them!
Hey, dude. How are you doing?
I've been following you here on TH-cam since you were a medical student. At the time, I wasn't even a medical student yet, but I was already watching and inspired by you a lot. I'm currently a medical student and I'm really enjoying your routine as a doctor. Every day I'm more sure that's what I want for my life. Congratulations for your work.
Hope you and all your loved ones be safe and well. Sending all my good vibes from Brazil 🇧🇷
Words cant describe how happy I am to see you again! :) You're doing great! ⚡
So happy to watch you pursuing and achieving more and more. You deserve evey bit of this
Man, I really appreciate your work, as a med stud. your videos are kind of a guide and testimony about the profession. Thank you for sharing!
Keep going Karim! you're doing an amazing job! I can't imagine how hard and stressful your job is especially working for the NHS but think about all the people you're helping at the same time.
Great video bro!! You're truly an inspiration in my medical journey, now that I am a medical student. It's more heart-comforting to see that these videos are amazing. Please continue the inspiration.
new banger video after 4 months. I am very excited! I missed you NASIR!!
i have been waiting for the day in a life for so long love this guy so inspiring
Looks like our Nasir is ' Growing Up' 🥹😂

Nasir, it sounds like you did incredible! Nights are tough and variable, getting through your first set is a true milestone! Welcome to the crew!
From an aged SHO in the north

You killed that talk! Glad to have you back!

Definitely worth waiting for this! Thanks and I hope you do film and upload more vids, we missed you! ⚡️⚡️⚡️
Finally🎉🎉🎉Missed this man, great to see you back
Hi Nasir, I am that high school student applying for medschool and ur videos have been absolutely inpirational for me so i thank you for doing such a great job handling your very much busy life along posting these videos for us I look forward to each and every following video of yours in these 5 or so months that i have left until my entrance exam!
Thanks once again for being such a wonderful inspiration for people like me.
Keep going and I wish you the greatest of memories and opportunities in this beautiful journey:)
It is really good watching you as a responsible doctor and human.Your night shifts were great I feel .
Great seeing you again on YT ! And was definitely worth the wait !
What an amazing video!!! Was worth the wait 😊
Been following you for years now , you're my inspiration 🙏
The vlog was so fun to see! Thank you for sharing 🤩🤩 also you killed it in that speech 👏👏👏
How can you not like chocolate?! - [Unfriend] 🤣
Welcome back! ⚡Great video giving good insight into night shifts - takes me back. They can be pretty rough so well done for pushing through! Can’t believe you did your speech for the TH-cam event whilst on nights. You smashed it! 🙌🏾
Thank you Dr. Simi 😁
I cannot fathom what nurses and doctors see and deal with on the daily. I applaud all healthcare workers. I couldn’t do it so I’m thankful there are others that are able to.
Great video. If I could give some advice, I would say be wary of the caffeine trap. When I did internship, we would do regular working day hours plus 24 hours if on call (usually every 3rd day). Yes the math is scary. But I ended up surviving on back to back caffeine hits, and eventually developed SVT's and really bad insomnia. What seems like a short term band-aid fix early on, can become a difficult to break habit in the end.
Did you cure your arrhythmia issue?
Thank you for your comeback
Oh man, I have waited so long for this!!
Welcome back Nassir. I really like your vlogs, it gives me motivation during medschool seeing all your efforts are paying off as a doctor. I wish you the best of luck.
Finally, after a long time, it's great to see you back again🎉🥳
Woah! Welcome back Dr .Nasir!! It was absolutely lovely watching you with another impeccable vlog! Keep going dear!🙌🙌
Thank you so much for posting again. I love your videos so much and you are a big inspiration for me 🥺🙏🏼
Really Great to see your video again Doc! Always Inspiring!
Feel like I’ve been waiting forever for this yay I’m so happy thanks for another wonderful video 🎉
Glad to have you back!
So happy to have you back man!!
i just talked about your channel to my lnterpreter friend today, saying it's so fun and informative but may have stopped uploading after becoming the doctor, then found your update today! so happy to find you back and doing great! look forward to more updates going forward😃
Yes, Keep it going! We love your content!
Best of luck Dr , كل التوفيق !
FINALLYYY I needed this for extra motivation~~
I did my surgery residency almost 40 years ago and it was every other call. Residents worked the day of call, too, and the next. It wasn’t safe, just crazy for five years. Residents did lots of cases and got to be so good at trauma A resident could do it in their sleep (and practically did). Today, call is les brutal, safer for the resident doctor and the patient. There is time to actually have a life. This video is from UK and not USA, pretty certain, slightly different system of education for physicians.
happy to see you back on TH-cam!!!
omg i'm so glad to see your video's notification finally pop up! i miss your study content but i'm all for the doctor diaries :)

I was talking to my mum earlier about the shifts I want and I said "mornings" but was so uncertain because waking up early isn't my thing. But watching this video has cleared a lot of doubts in my head ...so thank you so much. God bless💯
