Yeah, I just have questions in my head and I search Dr. Buck’s videos and bam!
Thank you for sharing your perspective Dr. Parker. I wish you a great career success and happiness.
I love that your tips also come with awesome stories!
Great advice! I do imaging for OR (R.T.) and just graduated a year ago from Rad school. Yeah, spot on. Get ready for smells and sights that you never thought you'd see, Femurs wrapped around the patient's neck, acetabulum blowouts, etc. The only time I felt like I was gonna pass out was when I saw a new trauma nurse check to see that the Foley balloon had inflated properly and by tugging on it, the unresponsive PT's hips lifted off the trauma bed! Errrrrrrghhh!
I forced myself to look at blood, wounds, feces, etc. to desensitize myself to it. It seemed to help. I was also really into watching TV shows where they're doing cosmetic surgeries or cutting away skin and fat off of obese patients. It's a bit different when you're up close.
Oh this video is great! My surgical tech clinical rotation doesn't start till mid July, but I am already nervous, wildly excited and petrified all at the same time.
You are goals!!, I am a pre med student who is actually interested in general surgery, I'm so happy I found your channel because my story is quite similar to yours, and you're hilarious :))
entered in your arena today....selected in General Surgery, already watched many videos now ready to rock! lol Thank you for uploading videos :DDD
Thanks Buck I feel a little more ready for my work experience next week! Loving all of your anecdotes btw!

@DAILY OBSERVER You won't, its just that your chances of touching something increase if your hands aren't in front of you, where you can see them.
Hahah! This is awesome! I thought you were going to say you barfed everywhere. Great content, Dr. Parker. I just shared my first OR experience too! Keep it up!
Im scrubbing for my first case as a surgical technologist today this helped me a lot lol
You kept it 100! Thanks
I like your story’s 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
I really really like your Videos
Loved the storytime but I honestly don't know how you can still stomach burger and fries after seeing that hahaha
LOL. "If you're a college student or medical student". My first time in the OR was during my senior year of High School! It was amazing.

Love your stories Dr Parker, thank you for sharing your resident stories, its always a pleasure to hear them. Well, my first experience in the OR as an xray tech was was nerve racking especially when draping the Carm, I was so scared of contaminating the sterile field while doing so. Then, after doing it so many times it was no big deal. Anyway, Thank you so much for sharing😀😀!!!

The "not feeling well the next day" on top of the drunk patient.... the WORST!
Hey, so I messed up and almost didn't graduate, I'm a senior who barely has anything to graduate, but I will, I'm really smart but had a trap ton happen to me my highschool years and I'm ready to finally start my life, so how can I still become a surgeon, if I absolutely fucked myself in the add during highsvhool?

Jordan Semmel go to college, your high school experience is essentially wiped. If you keep that pattern up in college though you're out of luck mate.
What was your major in college/university? I'm a high school student, and want to go into the same field, so out of the many medical majors offered I would love to get some input on what to aim towards
@Kymv8382
6 жыл бұрын
I'm not Dr. Parker, but I'm about to graduate and go to med school so I feel like I could offer some advice. That being said, major in whatever you're best at, and whatever you're truly interested in. If you love history, major in history and just make sure you do your pre-med prereqs. If you know you wanna do something involving science, biochemistry is a popular one because it incorporates chemistry and biology equally. The most common major that i've come across for pre med students however, is biology. That's like the universal major for students wanting to go to med school it seems. At the same time, when applying to medical schools, being different looks good, they don't want everyone majoring in the same thing with the same grades, same everything, so also keep that in mind. PS. "ratemyprofessor" will be your best friend. USE IT. lol

I agree. The most important thing is being able to good grades. Personally, I really enjoyed biomedical engineering. I learned about the surgical instruments, imaging modalities, and got a solid foundation in the basic sciences. Your degree can also serve as a back-up in case you change your mind, or supplement your medical degree. A good example would be business majors that invest their money or start a practice. Or Spanish majors that work in underserved communities. Overall, my advice would be to study hard in all your classes, even if they don't seem relevant (you use acid-base chemistry, physics, biochem, statistics, etc.); and also to have interesting experiences. Once you're a med student/resident/physician you'll have less time to learn a language, visit a foreign country, go to a music festival, whatever. Just develop good study habits and enjoy the learning process and you'll be fine. - 2nd year med student

This story is why I am not a doctor!!! I could not deal with this!!! I suspect that the only reason I did not have a problem in the delivery room when I had my two boys was because I was in such agonizing pain, no epidural opted for a pudenal instead. Than once they were born I was so happy to see them I did not see a thing else!!!
