I’ve been a neurologist for 20 years, did EMG fellowship. Mostly clinic-based, took my share of stroke call and hospital rounding every 4-6 weeks. In a general neurology practice, in addition to headaches there is a great deal of low back and neck pain. Lots of dizziness, syncope. Many people referred with vague symptoms like weakness and numbness in any and every location. Video does very nice job overall, but leaves out these outpatient conditions. I also in fact a lot of Botox, Mostly for chronic migraine. In a community hospital, most common reason for referral is encephalopathy, meaning the patient is not waking up or confused. More than half the time, it’s just a matter of too much sedative medication. The part about conditions being progressively worsening is definitely true, in particular I see a great deal of Parkinson’s disease and have known for many years. Same is true for Alzheimer’s. It is emotionally tough to see patients and families deal with the progression. That’s my two cents.

"Time is brain" explains our stress in the hospital. Please think twice before entering neurology specialty. It definetly can be rewarding but always keep in mind that you might lose patients just because you were too slow.

I have been a neurologist for 30 years and consider it the best job in the world. That being said, the emotional tool af seeing chronically ill patients can be draining. This was a great video, but you forgot one of the most challenging, rewarding and complex disease, multiple sclerosis. We have over 20 medicines on the market for MS, which requires thorough knowledge of the immune system as well as the nervous system. Rapid advances in all areas make the learning curve very steep, so get ready for a lot of reading to stay current. The reason it is the best job in the world is that, while you can’t cure many people, you can improve the quality of life of the majority of patients, and you rely on your intellect to do it. At last you get rewarded for being a nerd, and since most of the guys who used to pick on you are either digging ditches or dead, you have a good deal of respect in the medical community and in general.

I am just 11 years old but I am planning for my future from now, I am going to be a neurologist. It is my dream, I literally know everything about nervous system and a lot about brain, and I am going to be a neurologist.

my dad is a neurosurgeon, im so proud of him. he doesn't care about the money at all he just love his job and love spending time with his family. in the past my dad got a lot of job offers in Dubai England australia and usa. He did say yes, but is was not because of the big pay rise, but because he wanted to learn more about his specialty. My dad is rich yeah but goddamn he can be cheap sometimes. he could go out and buy an expensive designer bag, but instead he's going to hm and buying a normal 10 dollars bag. yeah im from Denmark my English suck

No way those Neurologist you named were in my department of care when I was at UC Irvine Medical Center!!! By far the best neurologist center I’ve ever been too! They were all soo sweet, charismatic, and charming towards me. Explaining every detail of my seizures with ease. I loved it all so much that I’m now going to school to someday become a neurologist myself ♥️ I love the brain 🧠

I really love neuroscience and I want to study it as my major, but for the longest time, I wasn't too sure what exactly I wanted to do as a career. I was always kind of in between if I'd like to work as a neurologist or a psychiatrist because I don't know if it's the mental aspect or the physiological aspect that intrigues me the most regarding the nervous system. However, after watching the videos of the two careers, I've found myself to like psychiatry more than neurology, but I certainly am not too sure yet. hell, I'm only 17 years old, I'm sure I'll figure it out soon 😭
