I feel like I could especially being I'm an RRT already with my ACCS provider but I don't know if I could afford it 😂 gotta pay that much to get into a career designed for helping people ayo can't do that
I didn't back in 1975 when I was a volunteer at UCLA Medical Center (while an undergraduate student). I was pre-med but got too upset by seeing ill patients. I went into Neuroscience and had a professional career with my Ph.D. in Neuropharmacology and Drug Discovery in Pharma.
I'm planning on spending at least 2-3 years in fellowships after crna school so yeah. won't increase my compensation much if at all but I have a tendency to tell HR they should hire me for a job that dont exist yet & gotta have a good resume for that
I don’t plan on going into the medical field at all, but honestly, I stumbled onto your channel randomly while at work. To be honest, it’s been a huge motivation booster for me. I work in IT as a network engineer, with long hours, and sometimes it feels like I don’t have a social life. But seeing you go through what seems like 10 times worse and still manage to find time for the gym and friends has been inspiring. You push through things, and I really admire that about you.
Wow, I really appreciate you watching and supporting the channel even if you aren't in this field. Your kind words mean so much. It is an important mindset to have that, even though we are spending a lot of time working, we need to make time for friends, family, hobbies. We gotta get through the day no matter what, but we have the power to control what we do with our time!
@@ShaunAndersen Thank you so much! You’ve really pulled me out of a tough spot, and I can’t thank you enough for that. I wish you all the best in your career and with the channel! You’ve got my full support, brother.
I recently found you, and I have mad respect for the transparency. I have been in hospitals more then I like, and too many of the doctors seem jaded, and don't actually want to help you. Your energy is a breath of fresh air, and any patient that finds themselves under your care is very lucky.
I appreciate the kind words so much, it really means a lot :) It sucks how many people are jaded in this field. I can understand it for sure, but I think mindset is so important
You also have to remember that Shaun and many of the younger generation that is posting here in YT and other social media are VERY young in their years as doctors (hence the residency). The joy, the eagerness, and the enthusiasm is widespread and awesome to see, but healthcare takes it's toll. Those older docs are jaded not because they want to, but because of the mental and physical toll being a doctor takes and over the many years, it's rough. I'm not a doctor, but I'm 7 ears a nurse (+2 more now being an NP), and I remember being so excited and enjoying my time early on as a nurse. By the time 5 years hit (which was through covid), that "passion" to care of others slowly dwindled because of the extras that come with taking care of others whether it be colleagues, the disease, persona life stuff, insurance, everything and anything. Regardless, I have much respect to all med students, future docs, resident docs, and older docs as I could never do it, or want to be one either.
Dr. Shaun, please don't lose that ability to give bad news. A lot of patients know the diagnosis before you tell them, especially with cancer. A friend and my aunt both had terminal cancer and no doctor would say the words. My friend's ER doctor had to tell after 4 weeks of trying to see her because her Hemo oncologist would not face her. My aunt connected me for out of state to read her results. She knew she had stage 4 lung cancer and when she went to get her results from the doctor. He refused to see her and had his nurse tell her to go home and a doctor will call you. No mention of cancer. She gets and email from a cancer center to schedule an appointment. Please don't be one of them. Your a good doctor. Stay positive. 😊
I could never be a doctor. I have much respect for all of you. I had to see a neuro for potential MS diagnosis and I got the opportunity to work with a resident as well as primary specialist. The resident did amazing and talked about how i’m not in medical but watched your channel and he mentioned he did as well! So if he see’s this, HI!
Oh wow, I hope everything is okay and your workup comes back negative. But that is so cool you guys were able to bond over this channel! :) I love that!
thank you so muuuuch. I'm a last year med student and it really touched me when you said this is all young Shaun ever wanted. I hope I'll get there and when i get where you're. I still have all that passion!!!!!
I watch your vlogs every now and then, I love seeing "the life of *insert medical profession here*" vlogs. I really appreciate how in this video you stressed the importance of empathy and kindness. I'm a medical assistant and I have worked many specialties with various types of people, and there is an overflowing handful of doctors, nurses, midwives, nurse practitioners, medical assistants, medical receptionists that don't have these two KEY qualities. Its saddening to see and watch. I always imagine my disabled mother being talked to and treated how some of these medical professionals do and it breaks me but it also motivates me to do better and be better. Thank you again for stressing that. Keep doing what you do and being true to you and your patients. You will go far!
Bottom line, you will always be learning...and growing. It doesnt fit the " traditional" 9-5, but its more than a job, its a calling. On a side note, those panoramic views are stunning!!!!
Although I am still a med 1 student, I am a huge procrastinator, but I am very passionate. So, I have learned from your channel to maintain my physical health and think optimistically even during hard times. I see many socially introverted people, and I am part of them in some way. But I know how important being social is to patient care. So, thanks to your channel, I have been trying to have a more social experience throughout medical school so that I feel confident enough in front of patients to discuss fully what concerns their care. Our ethics doctor was also very passionate in his late 60s, & much of what he taught us a month ago, you have proved throughout these vlogs. I never thought doctors remained after hours without extra pay, & I also never thought about staying after work to have a final round to go and discuss any final worries that the patients may have before going back home. But, with your channel, the channel of Violin MD, & our ethics doctor, I have uncovered way more truth behind the practice of medicine. Despite it seeming exhausting, I see the beauty in doing so & being one of the primary references for nurses while they perform their patient care. You give me so much hope & I am very inspired by your mindset and work ethic.
you’re awesome, just found you right now and I’d like to say that I have immense respect for you. Your decision to have a TH-cam channel and to show the world about YOUR life is very awesome. It’s also awesome if you to read the comments and reply while still working so hard! You rock and I hope that gives you a boost to your work schedule. I am 23 years old and I found a passion for medicine a few years ago. Certain circumstances stopped me from entering college right after high school, had to help my mom support our family of 6 😅 but anyways, I am currently in my first year of college, studying to be a bio major and pray to get into med school. Thank you for having this channel and for sharing all this valuable information and knowledge. You don’t know how much this means to me :)
Awesome Shaun. You’re essentially done with your Medicine Rotation. You handle that 15 hour Mon. Like a champ👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾! I hope that you will recharge and get ready for your next rotation. Awesome😀👍🏾!
yes I think I could handle the stress of residency it would be stressful for me being a doctor has been my dream since I was a kid I love all aspects of medicine.
@@ShaunAndersen to be perfectly honest with you. I’ve invested in a Roth IRA but honestly, I don’t want to retire. I want to work at Home Depot or in construction of some sort. I have family that used to work construction and I loved working outside. Medicine is customer service now. The hospital system has become a hotel and if I have to work in customer service, I’d rather work in a field that I actually like instead of one that turns it back on the people that really matter.
@@mbrighton1802hi there, if you don’t mind answering, I agree with the sentiment that healthcare seems like customer service, but I often hear that it’s been this way “for some time”. I wonder, what did healthcare use to be like? I always hear how it used to be better so I’m curious what *has* changed. For reference, I’m a medical assistant in a clinic and I can 100% see the resemblance to my previous roles in customer service (eg provider has little control over her schedule and often times gets double booked, or having to navigate insurance). Thank you
You are an amazing guy my dude! Kee4p griding and growing! I'm an electrical engineer (have worked) 10 years in this field, and considering returning for medical school! Your video has been very inspirational!
You are already a great doctor and all the people you have and will care for are very lucky to have you. It’s obvious you’re on the right career path. Wishing you nothing but continued success 😊
so much hard work to become an dr 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 the 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
I am an 8th grade student doing highschool classes right now, going to a specific high school for Biomed, and I really look up to you. I have wanted to be an anesthesiologist since I was in 3rd grade, and when I found your channel, I was so glad to see someone who is just beginning to be a great doctor, and can teach me the path to success. I have one question, do you think it will be a better or worse time for people to join the medical field in the next 20 years?
@@ShaunAndersen Dude, I can totally take over for you. I know with IM you have to use very vague terminology like "highly probable" or "not unlikely" because apparently being direct with diagnosing seems like a no no according to Dr. Glaucomflecken haha. I'll put on a white coat and head right over haha.
I waned to. Got disabled last year of education, after spending all my 20s studying for it. After 5 years of being couchbound, I am about to graduate in several months, but I am pretty overwhelmed with finding a speciality that can accommodate for my issues - Severe fibromyalgia with all of its affiliated symptoms, myalgic encephalomyelitis as well as chronic kidney disease stage 2. Going to try internal medicine and see if I can somehow make that work.
@@ShaunAndersen Wow, I see, cool, thanks. I’m actually particularly interested in any tips for interviewing with UCSD. Is there anything particularly standing out from them?
That short hair reminds of 2020 Shaun that's about to start medical school lol. And the fact you have the energy after your hard day's work shows you were always meant for medicine.
Great video, I could handle the stress of being a doctor, I have always wanted to be a anesthesiologist since I was a kid, it’s were my heart is, I love the hilarious patient! I check out the all electric ford f-150 Wednesday, it’s very nice, I’m gonna let the all electric ford t3 when it comes out and let others drive it for me because I can’t drive because of my cerebral palsy, my MRI for the bump on my leg is on the 30th they are gonna put me to sleep because I jump at loud sounds because of my cerebral palsy, I’m gonna tell my anesthesiologist I donate to the anesthesiologist Foundation
Great vlog as usual! You are such an inspiration. Thankyou for all that you do. Btw love the new haircut, it adds a fresh energy to your face. Keep going! 😊
Honestly, I don't really know how US healthcare system works but I can't fully agree normalising this idea that in order to be a doctor you have to accept working 12-15h/day. I mean that even in my country residents work 80h/week even if they're supposed to work 38h/week, but doctors more than anyone should know the impact of stress on the mind and body, up to a cellular level. So patients supposed to be taken care of by stressed doctors is a pillar of this society I don't really comprehend, especially in a country like yours where you have to spend most of your life paying back college debt. Seeing doctors as martyrs instead of workers is not my ideal, I would be extremely pissed off
I’m not sure if I missed it in another video do you mind sharing how you budget your income for expenses, if that’s okay? I know you’re transparent with how much you make for your two week pay but I’m curious to know if you’re able to save with that income / or I guess how you save with that income. I’m switching my career to pre-med to become a psychiatrist and I have a toddler which is why I ask 😅
Hey Shaun, you really do inspire me, to go forward with my dream to become a doctor, so I have a question. Do you got any tips, that could potentially help me?
Did your Tesla update to the beta FSD? Not the 30 day demo. Also when you “discharge” a patient do you actually do all the discharge education or is it just because you’re a resident? I’m a nurse and at my hospital nurses are the ones who do all of that the doctors just place the discharge orders 😅
Hey Shaun, more power to you. I have a question tho, how long does it take you to document notes like how long on average do you sit on your computer for the sake of documenting everything?
Is it true the standard of care is way different if you have a family doctor then a walk in clinic doctor? I really like our walk in but ppl keep saying to get a real family doctor. Just wondering!!
Family doctors are a waste anymore. They rush with their patients and will either push pills on you or just send you to a "specialist". They are basically just a scam.
Hello, I’m currently 27 years old I knew I’ve always wanted to work in the medical field but because of my past of dropping out of school because of laziness (ended up going back and getting my high school diploma) I’m not sure if that would be something that would affect me if I end up trying to go to med school. Do you know if that would affect me?
Zach Highley just quit medicine after his intern year. I feel like I have what it takes but it’s very hard to keep pushing when I see my motivation slowly dropping out
@@ShaunAndersen it might just be the ones who post about it that we see more of 🤣 since all the people I’ve seen quit have a TH-cam channel, but still. There are more that quit that don’t share it with social media… definitely a hard field
Got it, I think it’ll get easier in year two 😊. The big difference between med school and residency is you want to be a doctor all the time in med school and you have to be a doctor all the time 😂😂 I have faith that you’ll be a GREAT attending doctor in a few years 😊. These videos are great, which show your emotions and struggles along your journey 😮😂
Do you guys think you’d have what it takes to live the resident/physician life-style? 👀
Yes I could handle the stress of resident it wouldn’t be stressful to me
@@darriontunstall3708 that’s awesome to hear!

I have a chronic illness. Never lose you empathy for your patients. Too many have have become callous. I think you're a wonderful physician.
So sorry to hear :( & I never will, i promise!

maybe try talking to their medical director about that briefly

it's so refreshing to see such a socially calibrated doctor
I try haha so many docs lack the social aspect of patient care for sure
thank you so muuuuch. I'm a last year med student and it really touched me when you said this is all young Shaun ever wanted. I hope I'll get there and when i get where you're. I still have all that passion!!!!!
You will still have that passion if you keep the mindset! :)
How many hours of free time did you have a day in medical school?
Didn’t know staying past work hours and not getting OT was the norm. Mad respects to you and all docs!
Unfortunately it’s the norm :’(

I mean that even in my country residents work 80h/week even if they're supposed to work 38h/week, but doctors more than anyone should know the impact of stress on the mind and body, up to a cellular level. So patients supposed to be taken care of by stressed doctors is a pillar of this society I don't really comprehend, especially in a country like yours where you have to spend most of your life paying back college debt. Seeing doctors as martyrs instead of workers is not my ideal, I would be extremely pissed off
I need to leave med school cuz I can't compete with those kendama skills. :(
You better start practicing 🤪
I use cookies to bribe people to switch my shifts too lol must be a nurse thing
😂😂😂
Hello Shaun happy sunday ✋👍🙏🏻❤💯
@@pablodejesus1373 happy Sunday!! 🥳🥳
@@ShaunAndersen thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Prediction[ Going to be the BEST of the Best]👨🏻⚕️
🥳🥳
I’m not sure if I missed it in another video do you mind sharing how you budget your income for expenses, if that’s okay? I know you’re transparent with how much you make for your two week pay but I’m curious to know if you’re able to save with that income / or I guess how you save with that income. I’m switching my career to pre-med to become a psychiatrist and I have a toddler which is why I ask 😅
Hey Shaun, you really do inspire me, to go forward with my dream to become a doctor, so I have a question. Do you got any tips, that could potentially help me?
5:20 ba wow, ba wow
😂😂😂
Did your Tesla update to the beta FSD? Not the 30 day demo.
Also when you “discharge” a patient do you actually do all the discharge education or is it just because you’re a resident? I’m a nurse and at my hospital nurses are the ones who do all of that the doctors just place the discharge orders 😅
Hey Shaun, more power to you. I have a question tho, how long does it take you to document notes like how long on average do you sit on your computer for the sake of documenting everything?
Sometimes just a couple hours, sometimes 5+, it depends on the day :(
Do you have any recommendations like besides UWorld to studying for the STEPs?
honestly im only doing UWorld!
I kinda dug the old “90s Boy Band” hair 🤷🏾♂️ lol
I liked it too but it was so much higher maintenance :( might grow it out again tho we will see
Hi I want it be a doctor what some tips
My 2 tips: Enjoy your journey, and find your study method
I agree with the above tip 👆 😌
What program are you doing?
Is it true the standard of care is way different if you have a family doctor then a walk in clinic doctor? I really like our walk in but ppl keep saying to get a real family doctor. Just wondering!!
Family doctors are a waste anymore. They rush with their patients and will either push pills on you or just send you to a "specialist". They are basically just a scam.
standard of care is always the same! :)
Question: Do you get paid for the extra hours you work? Do you get overtime pay for it?
Nope :( just salary
Hi can I ask which residency field you are in? looks interesting
How’s your step 3 prep going?
Not as good as it should be :(
WHERE DID YOU GET YOUR JACKET FROM
Which one 🤯
@@ShaunAndersen The black one you're wearing 2 minutes in 👀
Hello, I’m currently 27 years old I knew I’ve always wanted to work in the medical field but because of my past of dropping out of school because of laziness (ended up going back and getting my high school diploma) I’m not sure if that would be something that would affect me if I end up trying to go to med school. Do you know if that would affect me?
Your short haircut gives you a fresh and youthful vibe. It really suits you. 💇♂️
Agreed!
Awhhh thank you :’) I’ll keep it this way for a little
You’re always handsome, doctor, but you look like a handsome 21 year old now. Great cut!!
That’s the best compliment ever :’) ty so much!!
What was the answer to the uworld question!?!?!?!? I wanna say A. but without seeing the EKG, idk....
Zach Highley just quit medicine after his intern year. I feel like I have what it takes but it’s very hard to keep pushing when I see my motivation slowly dropping out
Oh wow I didn’t realize he quit! It is a tough field and I feel like so many people are quitting now
@@ShaunAndersen it might just be the ones who post about it that we see more of 🤣 since all the people I’ve seen quit have a TH-cam channel, but still. There are more that quit that don’t share it with social media… definitely a hard field
Which is tougher: med school or 1st year intern ?
Both are tough in different ways! Med school sucks bc of the studying, but residency is hard because the hours and work are exhausting
Got it, I think it’ll get easier in year two 😊. The big difference between med school and residency is you want to be a doctor all the time in med school and you have to be a doctor all the time 😂😂
I have faith that you’ll be a GREAT attending doctor in a few years 😊. These videos are great, which show your emotions and struggles along your journey 😮😂
Sir how much student loans do you have? Plz reply. Thanks a lot.
It’s S(ha)unday!
Omg I love that! 😂😂
Why would someone not want a dog? Well, in my case because it hurts a lot when their time on Earth is up.
True, but that’s why you need to appreciate every moment with them :)
@@ShaunAndersen Yeah, the memories are what I try to hold onto. I guess time will heal things. Right now, it just hurts like shit.
Are you going to do any meet and greets? What are you doing for Diwali?
I’d be down if there was enough people! 👀
@@ShaunAndersen Want to hire me as public relations, outreach, & social media manager?
U always look handsome bro❤ with this hairstyle, u look even more fresh and handsome ❤
Yooo thank you so much :’) needed to hear that today
plz dont tell you want quit also 😭😭😭😭
I wont!! :'(
Do you dictate your notes?
Yesss! :) saves so much time
Sir how much do you expect to earn as an attending physician? Plz reply. Thanks a lot.
Probably at least 400k
u got me scared at the beginning i thought u were about to reveal some unknown life changing consequence about being a doctor 😭😭
Gotta scare yall for the clicks 😂😂
What happened to ally?
Not sure
@@ShaunAndersen ok
Are you a resident at Mountain View Hospital?
SHH!
I may go there sometimes tho
@@ShaunAndersen don’t worry, i won’t tell a soul, i just thought that view looked familiar ;)
I want to be a doctor so badly, but Zach Highley has me reconsidering so much😭 Idk what to do🤦🏽♂️
I’m still in SHOCK he left medicine !
The hair cut looks sharp. It makes you look younger and more handsome!
Awhh thank you so much :’)
Your perseverance is admirable, Shaun! You got this (ง’̀-‘́)ง
Thank you!! :)
