this specialty almost sounded like one of the best kept secrets

This is literally the specialty I’ve been looking for! I liked ortho but I didn’t want to be a surgeon, liked plastic because of the in clinic procedures, liked anesthesia but it didn’t feel personal enough, and wanted to do something that worked directly with patients. I’m a super patient and optimistic person! This sounds perfect. Thank you for making this video!

Oddly enough, I think I would have to agree with you. I'm just a patient, but I've had the misfortune of needing to see a bunch of specialists in different disciplines - physiatry, physical therapy, psychiatry, psychotherapy, neurology, dermatology, ophthalmology, urology, immunology and (obviously) internal medicine. The only bad encounter I've had with any MD was with a psychiatrist who was likely in the middle of a severe case of burn-out. The physiatrist, however, was a fantastic doctor of exceptional ability with an extraordinary bedside manner. I genuinely liked her from the moment she introduced her. (I'm usually the kind of patient who cares more about an MD's abilities and credentials than their bedside manner.) Then, she looked at my medical history and various diagnoses and decided to take the lead in trying to coordinate care, "move beyond being treated as someone with a mysterious syndrome" and cut back on the multi-pharmacy that had built up around me

I know what topics I like and the lifestyle I want, but this seems to be the speciality that encompasses everything I'm looking for in a career and with patient care. Thank you so much for this video!

I’ve seen a physiatrist every 2 weeks for a year now for a back injury I’ve suffered at my job. He’s a complete gem of a human and even though my progress is slow and I’ll never be back to 100% he keeps my spirits up. Definitely a speciality I’d look into if I got into med school

I’ve been looking into PM&R! Thank you so much for the video!

wow, I've been struggling with what I wanted to do for a while now, I was always in between psychiatry, neurology, or optometry because I wanted to become a specialist that utilizes neuroscience, yet I kinda felt like the three didn't fit quite well with what I exactly wanted. I've been told that I should be a PT, one that subspecializes in the nervous system, but I wanted to be a medical doctor and go to med school, not PT school. However, I was doing some career researching and I stumbled upon this specialty, and I think I know what I want to be now! Every aspect of this job seems very fitting with my passions and capabilities, so it makes me so happy that I'm finally certain that I know what I want to do. Thank you so much for this video, you made me realize what I want to pursue!

This seems like a very rewarding career field. Chronic pain and sudden handicaps effects so many people. Not only that it's seems a bit more laid back. My mother has spina bifida and has had to see a few of these Physicians in recent years.

Excellent representation by an excellent resident physician. I was impressed by the depth you went into and think that it'll be good for any future physicians to see.

Both physiatrists and orthopedists treat similar conditions, mainly musculoskeletal injuries, but orthopedists have the additional training to provide surgery as a treatment option, whereas physiatrists do not perform surgery. Many orthopedists and physiatrists do work in the same office.👍

@febrianmulyasantausa4515

You made it sound like physiatrist is an orthopedists w/o surgery skill. Imo their point of views are very different. This video doesn't explain enough about that. Orthopedists focus on musculoskeletal anatomy, PM&R focuses on function. While that sounds abstract, it's actually the only thing that the patient cares. For example, when total knee arthroplasty is performed, the patient did not really care about the fit of the prosthesis, they care about when will they be able to walk normally again without pain. PM&R focuses on that. With that being said, the interventions vary A LOT as long as the goal is to increase function, which means, it includes not only MSK cases, but also neurology, pediatrics, geriatrics, sports injury, and even cardiopulmonary problems. It certainly doesn't have the fancy vibe of the surgical specialties, but its patient-centered approach is second to none among other specialties.

Actually we do perform rehabilitation surgery - tendon lengthening, tendon transfers, osteotomies, joint replacements, burn contracture release, skin flap construction etc here in India and other parts of the world. We don't do surgery for acute trauma. Rehabilitation Medicine essentially treats any person with temporary or permanent disabilities. The Physical Medicine is the non-surgical component. And what he didn't mention is Rheumatology. We do a ton of that. It's normal for other doctors to not really get what we do or confuse us with therapists with whom we work closely. I think ABPMR and AAPMR and other resources will give you a better idea. Or you could speak to a Physiatrist.

While trying to create a specialty branch...the tree wont work at all, truncated. In any national emergency, a doctor must be able to function within all 20 plus specialties... So I know the specialties or rather residencies were by hours and subject matter gained and covered and viewed (must, electives and optional, and revisits for the missed). Waiting 4 years to see 1 case or having missed all of them is not the best idea. Why, because you can still be working on another residency and then come back to the 1st or 3rd to see what you didn't get there. Then it's topped off, I think by revisiting the specialty you will practice....so doing all 20 or 15 residencies in the past was about 2 to 5 years up to 10 to 20...because the content of what is normal and abnormal and arely seen was always measured.

One on Forensic Pathology, please??

I want to be an anesthesiologist Ik i have to do well statistically but I wanted to know after undergrad should I take a gap year and shadow someone in the field then apply to medical school, or would that occur after med school before residency, its a long way ahead of me but just need an idea. Ive seen critiques of med school applications and that seems to be one of the factors.
