Dr. Schmidt has such an amazing smile😭✨

Wow, it’s refreshing to hear a successful person who needs a lot of sleep! My husband and I both need 7.5-9 hours of sleep. We are both very busy in our careers, but it can be done. I go to bed not long after the kids, and get up early and try be efficient so I can get everything done and get to bed early again. Watching half of this on a quick lunch break!

[aqualife]

I love that he washed his hands prior to serving yalls drinks haha. Cleanliness is a great trait!!

[rishabchawla]

Quite the lineup you’ve had recently, great job!

[ineedvyvanse]

The way you feel about gastro is how I feel about urology. It’s so diverse and I really enjoy it

[sopyleecrypt]

Cool! Now can you do 73 questions with Dr. Glaucomflecken about ophthalmology?

[marisap]

Doc Schmidt is awesome and definitely someone I look up to as a first year med student. He seems super patient and gentle and I can see how he can put people at ease.

[Incognit]

Doc Schmidt is a doctor that truly makes a difference. Thank you both!

[Kimunicator]

Love Doc Schmidt! I would love to see him bring awareness to some interesting GI conditions like cyclical vomiting syndrome (both children and adults, ) how many people actually have a gluten intolerance, Crohn's disease, etc. It's fascinating to me the connection between the brain and the gut. Thanks for another great interview Andy.

[kasey]

Loving this series! I would love to see 73 Questions with an Occupational Therapist!

[samlee]

I'm applying for med school this cycle and my main interests are GI and neurology so it was surprising watching this video! Great work again!!

[gina]

I have Crohn's! I couldn't be more thankful for GI docs! Great interview.

[paulinaf]

I really enjoy these videos. Even though I’m not a doctor or in med school it is still so fascinating to me! Doctors are awesome!

[wow-sith]

I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU GOT HIM BRO WHAT!!! Do you travel to see these people or do they all happen to be in your city?

[somiyaalam]

How strange he doesn't bring up Mr. Jones!!! And he can speak at such low pace.

Thanks Andy & Doc Schmidt! Just wondering if you would be able to do a 73-questions interview with a physician or specialist who started their career journey later than what would be considered 'normal' or average age, like late-20s to mid-to-late-30s or older. For example, people who have spent their working adult life in potentially an entirely unrelated field, what made them want to change careers, and what obstacles did they face when going through undergrad (if they hadnt already), medical school, and residency. Thanks in advance!
