    Such a fantastic week on OBGYN! (week 3,btw! go catch up on the other videos if you haven't already) I'm really happy that you all are loving this series so much. Brings such a huge smile to my face reading all of your comments.

I’ve heard a lot of negativity regarding the rough hours and work/life balance of this specialty. I haven’t shadowed an ob/gyn, so I don’t have any first hand experience, but what’s been your opinion on that thus far? Have you noticed this stereotype is true, and if so, has that influenced your decision?

As far as the hours, it sucks. We have the worst call and honestly that's why if you dont absolutely love the specialty it's extra rough.

It’s not that u r losing info ur just taking it in in a different way. Practical info really shines when ur physically doing something. Don’t panic. Ur brain and body will adjust and u will find ur absorptive rate for info is back on top. Keep marching on ur almost at the finish line. So glad ur choosing OBGYN. Don’t be suprised if ur residency brings u right back to where u r now.
