A few months ago I was watching these videos religiously after getting only 2 interviews for Medicine. I can confirm that they work as I just received an offer from Nottingham a few days ago :)

[CarpeDiem-vcgq]

Just wanted to say Doc, thanks so much for these videos. Currently have 3 offers for medicine and your videos are what got me to this stage. Thanks for all your hard work!

[dilly]

Ollie, this is 100 percent the best channel for getting into medicine. You explain it like no other. Thank you so much.

[shambhavivats]

you are so hardworking ollie...keep it up

[adammorrisson]

You are such an inspiration Ollie. I am going to apply to graduate entry medicine upon completion of my current Biomedical Science degree. Thank you for your videos and insight.

[chloemccaughey]

Great video Ollie! Really helped me make an educated decision on my career to be a medicine like paracetamol!!

[annatrela]

I plan to become a paramedic and after i get my degree work a few years and gain experience in the field and then become an advanced paramedic and work on the mobils intensive care unit ambulance

[nederlandseveganist]

Could how deep you go into the science be a good reason for going for medicine as opposed to, say nursing?

[rustecohle]

My goal is to become a clinical psychologist and then specialise and become a neuropsychologist. I plan to do the 3 year nurse course and work as a nurse for a year or two to gain some work experience and save them leave and become an assistant psychologist and work my way up to clinical. What’s your opinion on this plan and is it worth becoming a mental health nurse for a year or two before pursuing a psychologist career?

[rikkdosage]

I mean taking blood is definitely a procedure that doctors are better at on average than nurses…most nurses on most wards I’ve worked will not take blood because they say they haven’t been trained and so it will be the FY1 who has to do the bloods if they’re not done by the Phlebs. What you said just isn’t true at all.

[bicolprobinsyako]

Full watching nlang po idol, , kahit totou di ako masyado nakakaintindi ingles

[EruditeYT]

Hold you also talk about the opportunity for doctors to teach medical students and share their knowledge? Or is that something nurses can do as well?

[psycatlogist]

Thank you for this video Ollie!

I would like to ask – if I cite having more cases to handle as a doctor being more suited to my work style/personality as opposed to having fewer cases but more in-depth care to deliver as a ward nurse, could this reason be viewed negatively, as I might seem like I prefer quantity of patients over quality of care?

for context, I'm a nursing student applying to postgrad medicine :) Thanks in advance!

[ollymetcalfe]

Can these other healthcare professionals carry out research? Might that be another reason?

[MistaKasko]

Ollie I completely agree with playing the game that the current political climate imposes. But let's make no mistake - on average, doctors DO know more than nurses. It would be infinitely easier for a doctor to do the job of a nurse than it would the other way around.

Nurses are the true backbone of your sector, , ,
You talk a lot, ,
