So down to earth and humble, thank you for sharing you experience using it to encourage others! Keep those videos coming we need it its refreshing , encouraging and many can use it for guidance!☺️

I love how all Dr. Parker’s videos are just him causally driving on the freeway and talking

Thanks tor the kick ass attitude ,i am definetely implementing that to me too

It’s inspiring how you manage to make videos while being a surgeon. Your videos are also super helpful! I like that warrior mindset perspective- something I need to adopt.

Would being an IMG still be a disadvantage if I go to a German med school? Btw thanks for your videos! I'm a new subscriber

How do you study for boards? What are the best resources, and when in medical school did you start?

if you think about it it's good that you didn't rank the hospital where you did your rotation, and you ended up at Henry Ford, even though it was hell you ended up in a better spot!

Dr. Buck could you make a video on the best major for undergrad as a Premed? Much appreciated! (I'm majoring in Biochem mostly because it has the medschool requirements)

Hey bro you’re a badass and a your story is an inspiration. I’m about done with nursing school and have a strong desire to go into medicine. Do you see many registered nurses in med school/ in residency? If not, why do you think that is? Keep up the good work man your videos are awesome!

Hey Nick! Good for you. Actually I think nurses make fantastic doctors. I had a couple in my residency. I'm not sure if it helps you get into med school, but once you are there you will have a leg up.

Buck Parker, M.D. thanks for the reply man.I’ve always wondered why it was a path less taken, considering once you’re done you’re guaranteed a job in case something gets in the way that you could not attend medical school, which can’t be said with the biology/art pre med degrees. But then again I have to do an extra year to do the pre reqs which kinda sucks but I’m not in a hurry, a year won’t make much of a difference haha.

Hey Dr. Buck. I’m super interested in general surgery as well. The vascular surgeon you’d mentioned, is he still practising? I’d love to work with a person like him.

After this story I find it hard to believe you still recommend going to a Caribbean school once US DO school :p

Omg you're in Michigan

Hey! How do you recommend staying in contact with residents like you did after your 3rd year?

Hey Dr. Buck how to become a sports medicine physician employed by professional sports team and how hard is it?

I need your advice on the following matter. My wife is an IMG Nephrologist living permanently in the USA. She will be applying directly to nephrology fellowships as well as IM and FP. Here is our dilemma. Although Nephrology is her best choice, there are no nephrology program in our state, hence she will apply for IM/FP just in case a local residency program will accept her, since as a married couple, its terrible to have to move. In any case the problem is that specialty applications began 8/26 and residency begins around october. what does she do if some nephrology programs interview her before the residency programs even begin? On one hand she doesnt want to be completely unmatched, but on the other hand she might match in home state but wont know till later since specialty and residency ranking and match dates are at different times?

Can you only transfer to competitive surgery residencies from other surgery residencies? Or can you transfer from less popular programs to surgery as well?

Thanks Dr Parker; where did you end up finishing your residency after the preliminary year at Henry Ford?

Dr. Parker M.D. do Ross University still have major problem with HIV infection among students?

Hey Dr. Buck, you said that you didn't apply to orthopedic surgery (and other specialty programs) because you would've had no chances because you're an IMG and you also mentioned how important the the Step 1 scores are. I'm really interested in ophthalmology and I was wondering if I could still get a residency position as an IMG if I score extremely high on my Step 1?

@drbuckparker

6 жыл бұрын

Well I didn't think at the time I could do it. But now I know it's possible. Ophtho is hard, but with a high enough Step 1 score I do think it's possible.

Hey doc. Do you think i can match Radiology if i score 260? Even being an IMG? What should i do to increase my chances?

I think you have a good chance. You may need to look for programs that are not university or large programs but there are lots in busy hospitals that will give you a good training.

No just the 222. This years national average was a 230 so a 222 is super uncompetitive.
