A Day in the Life - Surgical PA Student on Clinical Rotations (General Surgery Vlog)

- MOST COMMON SUTURING TECHNIQUE IN GENERAL SURGERY: Buried interrupted & the interrupted subcuticular stitch. I forgot to add the word "AND". I apologize for any confusion.
This video is a VLOG of my experience in my General Surgery Clinical Rotation. I am a current physician assistant student in my second year of PA school out on my surgery rotation. I never had an experience in the operating room prior to this rotation. I was a complete beginner. Through out my surgery rotation, I worked with surgeons, residents, surgical PAs, medical school students, and PA students.
It was overall a great experience. I enjoyed general surgery more than I anticipated. I am still undecided of what specialty I will choose.... who knows, maybe I will become a surgical PA?!
Please don't forget to LIKE & SUBSCRIBE! It really does help me out a lot!

Same omg!!
Samee
Ok
aghhh i’m literally only 14 but my parents are both healthcare workers and i really wanna be a nurse!! biggest dream
Try hard!
Same! I’m only 14 and I’m so interested I’m learning anatomy on my own
Do ittt, your happiness is first, trust me
@@lololol4357 You should focus more in school, your grades will be very important for university. I know that feeling of wanting to start learning on what you want to study, but focusing on school will help you more. Believe me, years will go by very fast. Just wait and do great in school.
@@gerardoa2913 thank you! Also don’t worry I make sure my school work is done before I focus on medical stuff
1st year of med school almost done ✅ Gen Surg is the goal!
do you like med school so far is it hard?
@@raionasgamingchronicles3397 it's definitely as much of a challenge as it's notorious for. The pandemic has definitely made med school even more difficult than usual! In my opinion, it's all about time management.
Same, finished today✨
@@alianaws4972 congratulations ❤️😍
@@raionasgamingchronicles3397 thanks🖤
I want to be a Anesthesiologist sooo badly. I’ve been working so hard and have been studying, grinding, cramming, and packing my days full of learning. What I’ve been learning is incredible and facilitating and something that I would dedicate my life too without hesitation. I’m only In high school but I’ve wanted to become a doctor for 5 years and I get more passionate about it with everyday! This is what I want my life to be like! I don’t care how much I have to sacrifice to go to med school or how long it could take me to get I to a desirable school. There is a part of me that is really terrified what will happen because parts of me doubt my intelligence and if I’ll ever get there but another part of me is extremely exited! I will never ever give up my dreams on becoming a doctor! I can’t wait when I can dedicate my life to my passion and fascination! No matter how many punches life throws at me ( even if sometimes they feel like gun shots ) I will never give up on my dream.
I love how passionate you are about it, girl you got this!
@ Ashleyowhateva
thank you thank you 😊
You wrote the whole essay.
your zeal will take you there! i believe in you❤️
See you in the OR maybe. ;) I'm 4th year med student who aspires to be surgeon. I want to work with people like you! :D Good luck with your studies!
wow. i’m a junior in high school who genuinely has no interest for anything medical, but for some reason i love watching the lifestyle of one😂 it seems so time consuming and intricate. you should definitely be proud of all you accomplish because genuinely you guys are amazing and idk how you do it, but keep doing it! much love🥰🥰🥰
samee
I don't want to be a doctor but the lifestyle is so cool
I didn’t want to do anything medical until senior year. I took a class and fell in love. Didn’t know about PAs so I wanted to be a pediatrician. Found out about PAs freshman year of college and now I am one :)
@@MHSMagicLuverI’m a freshman in undergrad right now and really struggling to decide between PA Vs physician. What brought you to being a PA and are you happy with your choice? Appreciate you 🙏 :)
@@sundrin4481 so I wanted to be a doctor when I started college but I didn’t even know a PA was a thing (back in 2009). Because I knew no one in the field. A friend of mine wanted to be a PA (she’s a NP now instead and the other one isn’t in medical at all) and I looked it up and knew it was perfect for me but.. I still shadowed a physician and multiple PAs to make sure. So that’s definitely something I recommend. I’ve been a PA for 3 years now (working for 2) and I love the field. I wasn’t a fan of my first job which is why I left a year ago but it’s the actual job, not the profession. We even had multiple physicians leave that job when I did. I’m currently looking for a new job as we moved states. Biggest thing for me is lateral mobility. I started in family medicine and I would love to go into general surgery next.
Wonder how many teens decided to study medicine due to Greys anatomy and then got disappointed by how blunt reality really is. 😝
(Edit 1 year later: Can’t believe this comment got 1.300 likes!! There’s too many of you out there, ain’t that right? 😅)
I’m one of them- lmao
I'm here😭
meeeee
@@totally-mac 10 blade, suction please. Am i qualified enough to be a doctor?
Sid
When I had surgery I saw the pa quite and she was awesome and after all the years on not having surgery I ran into her at hobby lobby and she remembered me after all the years that went bye I loved her she is still down to earth and caring.
Dani you’re such an Amazing Young Woman who is showing US WOMEN anything is possible when you set goals and dedication 🙏🏽🙌🏽💕 don’t know you but want to hug you & tell you how proud I am of you 😁❤️ Bravo 👏🏽
You’re amazing!! Can’t wait to see you out there practicing 🫶🏻
Hey!!!
I'm loving your vlogs. You chose a noble profession. You're working hard and careful. Lots of love. Stay blesssed.
YOU ARE LIVING MY DREAM LIFE !! Thanks for inspiring me
I love the simplicity of the vlog and your explanations were clear. Subscribed
Dani! Love the detail you put into this vlog, that's a lot of work on top of your already busy schedule! Great job!!
Thank you for sharing! Loving the look into your day!
This is so motivating ! Thank you ! Cant wait for the next vlog
This looks both very fun and very exhausting!! Thanks for sharing!💞
Soderywow
So much respect for medics doing night shifts. It’s so hard staying up all night
I am finishing up my first year as a PA-S! I am so excited to start rotations :)
I work as membership coordinator for an association for surgeons. It's nice being able to see first hand what you do especially cause I work with a lot of surgeons.
I am in nursing school rn but I would like to be a PA. However I seem to not have enough belief in myself to actually achieve this. You are such a example! Love to see your hard work pay off👏🏾.
I hope all of your dreams come true and that you will believe in yourself. You're already doing difficult nursing school and if you enjoy it - go for it. I'm med student of the 3rd course myself and it's totally worth it. Didn't believe in myself either. Take care!
I'm so scared even though I'm nowhere near college/pa school but at the same time, I'm really excited that I can do this one day!!
Your amazing! Thank you for everything you do and all the hard work you do to! You guys don't get enough credit!
Thank you so much I love the video looking forward for more and I’m also realllllly interested in surgical PA 😊 good luck for you🍀✨
Hey Dani ,this was an amazing vlog . please keep it up.Didnt feel bored at all
Been binge watching your videos! Thanks for being inspirational 💪💯😎 can't wait for PA school!
Ahhh good luck! It’s an amazing journey
You don’t even have that many videos Dani
Oh dang!! Just randomly came across your channel and noticed you’re in soflo! Me too!!! I’m currently in South university’s PA program in west palm. You’re funny and cool. We started in January so I’m still early in my didactic year (no fun), glad you seem to like clinical year more!!
You're awesome!! Keep up the great work Dani!
You and all med students inspire me to work harder 🙏🏽
I love watching videos like this for 2 main reasons. 1: I wanted to be a trauma surgeon all through elementary school and 6th grade. 2: This past year now I’ve constantly been in and out of hospitals due to severe scoliosis. I had my spinal fusion surgery in January, a week and a half before I turned 13. I love getting to see the other side of the spectrum where I can see the experiences of all kinds of doctors or people who will be doctors. It’s so interesting to me seeing as they are the people that quite possibly saved my life. You’re video was so entertaining as well as informative and I genuinely loved watching it
She’s a pa not a doctor
@Booooo I also had scoliosis and I had a spinal fusion. Now I also want to do something medical
@Booooo I also had scoliosis and I had a spinal fusion. Now I also want to do something medical
Absolutely loved this vlog! Currently in PA school in the UK and have been vlogging it too ! it’s so interesting to see how PA school is in the states!
I just was watch your video, I thought you was going to Medical school, on your TH-cam channel.
Hey, I thought UK does not allow PAs. Did that change recently? Wish you the best!
Love this! It would be awesome if you could do a video on the good and bad of a specific rotation after you complete it.
Wow youre goals. Props to you for the hard work and dedication! I could never lol
watching med vlogs, surgery vlogs, like gen. surgery huhu it really made me atleast feel okay, med school is really my totga, my dream and its hard to continue forward taking a diff. path:(
So cool! Thanks for sharing your experience even tho ur super busy in PA school!!
Appreciate the love 💕
I love your vlog Dani♥️i hope one day be like you. Be the future doctor🧸
This is how I exactly want my life ❣️
I am in my last year in the MedSchool ! Watching this is so beautiful !!! Also the Cuban coffee is so cool ( I’m Cuban) 😜
i’m hoping to go next fall for a major in health sciences. hoping to be a PA someday! i think general surgery would be the most interesting for me because i just recently had gallbladder removal and i had a first assist at my surgery! so excited
That's nice wish you all the best
same, here. Next fall I will be starting a pre-pa major.....my schedule looks terrifying, but oh well, can't see myself working in anything other than medicine if im bein honest, it is way too fascinating!
Love the video and very insightful content! 🔥🔥🔥
Hey Dani! You are inspiring a lot of people. Great job. I love the way you established a passive income source cum disseminating(spreading knowledge) channel.
It's just amazing.
Hope you do your best.
it looks like I'm watching Grey's Anatomy vlog version❤️ idk but the hospital gave a vibe like the hospital on Greys
I love your videos! Very helpful. Good luck with school
Thank you!!!🥳
Amazing video!!! Thank you for all the insight!
One of my ultimate dream, to become a DOCTOR💖💖💖💖 proudly to say i'm a registered nurse and a clinical instructor for caregiving course💖 im new to your channel and im glad i found you❤️❤️ Godbless to you💖💖
what a wonderful video I loved it I'm from Brazil I loved your channel ❤️
Fico feliz em saber que a senhora está bem 🙏😘
Respect the grind 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
I don’t know why I’m here, I’m learning animation 😂, amazing video
Maybe you can make animated movie about doctors
GOD, I'm ready !! 🙌🏻
I wish my skin looked this good in school and clinic 😂😂
I dont know if you will read this comment or not.
But as a medical student I wish you a good luck at your place of work💙
ahh I can’t wait to start PA school even though I’m far from it. 😭 Im 20 & should’ve been almost halfway done with college now but I took 2 GAP years after HS in 2019 & i finally decided to go get my bachelors starting Spring semester in Jan. I just get so discouraged BC I took so long to start college
It is exciting, don't beat your self up over a gap. I had to take 4 years off after finishing my premed degree before applying. It doesn't matter when you start so long as you get there!
My friend dropped out of school before even reaching highschool. Now, he's 20 and is in his first year of highschool. He is not planning on medicine, but he's planning for at least 5years of college(not considering the freshman year as in my country we have 3years of highschool then we start as sophomores).
I literally did the same thing. Same grad year, same amount of gap time. I see those 2 years of not "wasted time" but to really solidify PA as what I wanted my career choice to be. Best of luck to you!
Gap years are super valid! And they’re probably more common than you think :)
Dont worry. You will finish in time. The time would have passed anyway, so..
really enjoyed this video!!! do you have a video for your desk setup ? I've been on the hunt for a good monitor but haven't found a good quality affordable one
Currently in my second year of med school (almost finished with it), and this inspired me tysm
this looks so fun but i just know it is EXTREMELY hard, i wish i could do this without all the hard work. it gives me so much anxiety and tension just watching it knowing you have to do so many exams and also knowing i wanna be a doctor when i grow up :( i’m so upset
Actually she isn't a doctor, she's a PA.
@@liv0003 what does that mean?
@@mads5478 physician assistant
Cool video! Love to see other people making videos too!
Wish you the best of luck Dani, stay safe remember to have fun!!
You're inspiring me🥺❤🌹
I enjoyed this vlog! I start rotations in June sooo I'm trying to see what I'm getting myself into lol
Wish you best of luck all the way what you're doing on the surgical study and to be a good doctor, God bless you 🤍
She has mentioned in the description that she is a PA not a doctor.
It worries me how all of the medical students and even doctors on youtube (and other social media) always describe how tired they are and how much caffeine they need... being chronically tired is worse than being drunk for decision making.
We’re overworked, that’s for sure! Any solutions?
@@DanithePA I think the solution is for everyone to actually admit the problem (seems that the entire system and even the doctors/students themselves are pressured into pretending it is ok). Then slowly but surely change the entire medical system in America. Put massive amounts of government money into changes over time that make sense (updates in technology to stream-line processes). But most of all, HIRE more people... have more nurses. Create new jobs that don't exist but make sense. For example, I went to a doctor once who had a medical student as a note -taker during the appointment that was doing all of the paperwork. That seems like a job that should just exist already: "professional medical note taker" that are taught about medical hygiene etc., but are very skilled in assistant and secretarial work.
I think huge pressure has to be put on the system for these types of changes to be made. I really wish the current medical teachers and career doctors would try and push for these changes themselves (the way that they do in the airline industry... you don't sleep, you don't fly). Actually the airline industry is the perfect example. You could almost copy and paste their rules.
I foresee a HUGE lawsuit (something involving huge amounts of money) in the next decade that focuses on how bad being chronically under-slept is for doctors. Maybe a giant study that really highlights the medical errors being caused by being sleep deprived. Maybe then actual change will happen.
p.s. Sorry if my tone sounds annoyed. The irony of medical professionals constantly telling everyone how important sleep is, but then not sleeping themselves is frustrating. Not frustrated at the individual doctors, more at the system that allows this to take place. I think social media has made this issue more obvious. Thank you for what you do personally.
@@flygirlhandm I think a big thing is also someone has to be working 24/7, so you get those long long shifts
@@flygirlhandm the job that the medical student was doing is called a medical scribe, it already exists :) & a lot of pre med/med students work as those
Really agree with your points
@@GlamGoddes101 Do you know why there aren't more medical scribes? (I am guessing the system doesn't want to pay for them?) EVERY doctor should have one! It would save so much time for the doctors and they would be more accurate and detailed in their notes.
Thanks for the insight dani 😺
when i was a student at Internation University at my Country as a nurse school i felt so complicated of learning with medical terminology and take time to do more researching and sleep 6 hourse a day and the most difficult thing is when i was internship' nurse at the provincial hospital and no time to relax when a rotation or nightshift coming .i knew that feeling it is sensational .
nice, very helpful video to know a day of live the medical student from you video. so nice video and always in healthy and proud of you
I loved this. Can you maybe do more vlogs on your clinicals? If you can, of course..
have my family medicine and pediatric vlog coming up!!

Love the vlog keep up the good content!!
Love your Kitty studying with you😻
The work of a surgeon must require a lot of responsibility and I suppose that before becoming a teacher you must spend many years as an apprentice until you finally specialize in a specific system (endocrine, circulatory, locomotor, etc.) and they let you direct your first intervention. On the other hand, I'm glad that doctors outside of Spain are better valued. I hope you did well in the exam, greetings from Valencia.
You are so better then us we spend all of our life with ortho.......my foot sp heavy work
You looked super pissed at 2:25 LOL! You're doing great!
I almost went to that school for nursing. Its a great school with great programs. Just was not able to travel from where I lived in Florida.
Super inspiring!! Keep up the dope content
This video is sooo well made compared to some other ones.
P.S: Her eyes are so pretty🥺
proude to be a Doctor ❤️❤️
All the best sis ...I'm student in medical laboratory science
Congratulations 🎉 On your journey 👍🥇👩💻
just found your channel and am loving it!! how are your stress levels compared to your didactic year? It seems stressful in a different way for sure compared to keeping up with bookwork!
Glad you are enjoying it! Honestly, I am enjoying clinical year wayyy more!!! You get to apply everything you learned during your didactic year into real life :D
