Fun fact:
Orthopedics = Orthopaedics
Orthopaedics - traditional English spelling used more in academic settings (so you'll see that spelling in the hospitals and departments)
Orthopedics - more Americanized spelling
Both can be used interchangeably! Not that I had to look that up while editing this video....

Dr. A is a wonderful colleague, talented surgeon, and all around good guy...glad to see this! Wonderful work as always Andy.

[oamegbe]

Thank you for showing a black man who is rising in his speciality. Always inspiring for me as a Black med student to see people who look like me thrive.

[theovercomer]

I could listen to this doctor talking like for hours long! What a voice !🙈

[preciousinyang]

As an ambivert, Nigerian, and premedical student interested in orthopedic surgery, this video was the perfect way to end off my finals week. Thank you ND MD and Dr. Agochukwu!

[TheBarophobia]

He seems like a fantastic surgeon/human being. One look at those arms, definitely knew he was in ortho 😆

[overlyfatman]

“The ability to restore people to function.”
I felt that.

[missywoford]

He seems like he would be so kind and comforting to have as a doctor. Like he would be *the* most reassuring doctor to have guiding you through surgery.

[hombreuno]

This guy is a beast. Mean that in the most sincere way possible.

[diane]

something about his demeanor reminds me of the Psalm "It is well with my soul". You dont get that kind of energy unless you've been through the fire. Ture confidence has no need to be arrogant.

[zoilalulu]

What a talented, dedicated, kind human being. Almost magical.

[CorisWorld]

I just can't get enough of this series. Thank you for producing these!

[TheEeeeee]

I think this is the best one yet! You can tell he is genuine and cares so much for his patients!

[annabellawr]

What a smart, gentle, and honorable man.

[HelloMoto_]

He seems like such a great surgeon and person! The way he talks about what he does, you can tell it was such an accomplishment for him to make it, and he feels so lucky to be helping people. Bless him, we need more doctors like him.

Wow him talking about his older brother. Ahh man, I’m sure he is so proud of you!

[stephenogunbiyi]

Yes a Nigerian doctor, thank you for the insight into orthopedics!!!!

[VanessaWade]

Just shared this with my 17 year old child who recently expressed interest in this specialty as a career path. Thank you! This was an amazing interview with an insightful and personable doctor.
"73 questions" series is a very interesting series! You've done an excellent job with both the questions and choosing interesting doctors to interview!

[stuartmauger]

Just wanted to say that what you do is so great. Thanks for taking time out of your busy schedule as a medical student to help out other students with these tough career choices. I’m on the dental side of medicine and these kind of resources are invaluable to students. Keep up the good work!

[MJ-vrxs]

I'm an Orthopedic Surgery resident and I feel very inspired watching Dr. A, I wish he could be my mentor, I relate a lot to him and seems like a great guy

[jeanlanz]

Fascinating person. Doctor is so honest, direct, grateful, and highly skillful. Praise God for the kid in the dirt bike accident who was able to move his arms and legs after the late night surgery.
