Good luck with your pediatric anesthesia fellowship Application

[stefanoagnolin]

Hello!! I’ve just graduated pediatric residency (5 years in Italy). I’ve spent last 3 years in neonatal and pediatric ICU and I’d like to apply for pediatric critical care medicine fellowship! I’ve spent all 2022 in my local PICU (Verona - the city of Romeo and Juliet 😂) and I just fell in love! I love the precision needed in procedures and the variety of disease and patient! Good luck for your application!

This was such a cool video! As soon as you stepped into the Pain Management room, I was both surprised and very familiar with that setting. I dealt with a few years of chronic pain in my shoulder, elbow, and wrist after a serious accident. I had a few exploratory examinations and injections done in an office just like that, as well as imaging for nerve damage and fittings for custom wrist/elbow braces. I had no idea that fell under anesthesiology!

As a patient who is a zebra (Kyphoscoliotic Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and a rare primary immune deficiency), I love your zebra scrub cap! ❤🦓

I had brain cancer as a child, anyone willing to take time to work with children are great humans, good luck with your pediatrics application!!!

Would you be able to do a tour of the anesthesia machine, seems like a really interesting and complex device!

Hi Max. Great video. I would think you’d be great at pediatric anesthesia and even on the acute pain service. I’m 50yo C5-6 Quadriplegic who’s currently in a hospice center getting my medication managed better before continuing my journey at home or another facility. Anesthesia has been an integral part of my care for thirty plus years, allowing me to function and live independently post injury. But in today’s climate of the ‘opioid crisis’ it has become next to impossible to fill my medications at the pharmacy. Doctors are scared of losing their license and pharmacies scared of DEA intervention. Maybe some time you can touch on those things...thanks again

With my first csection I felt it when the doctor tested me for feeling and I told him but the anestesiologist told him that I was ready and she told him that I couldn't be feeling it. I said I don't knwo what I should or shouldn't feel but I felt that but the doctor after arguing with the anestegiologist he started and then when there was no doubt that I was feeling it he ordered the anestegiolist to give me more meds and she said that she couldn't until my daughter was born, so the doctor said he'd get her out as fast as he could. They waited what seemed like an eternity for me to clearly verbally acknowledge that I saw her before knocking me out. When i had my 2nd csection that anestegiologist was no longer working at that hospital and I told the anestegiolist that was there for my son's birth that if that happened again to just end the pain as soon as she could. She told me what to expect to feel and what was happening in the surgery and what I might feel as it happened, which was very reassuring. My 2nd csection was painfree and it was great to feel that the anestegioloist was there to help, where for the first I felt like a slab of meat. The anestegioloist who was there for my 2nd csection was also there for my gallbladder surgery and while I only saw her in the prep, it was nice to know that I was going in with a familiar and safe face.

May your fellowship dreams come true. Anybody or anyplace would be so lucky to have you.

Hello Max! Omg any patient would be so blessed to have u put them to sleep. I love how u educate not only residents or students. But in a way that even lay people can understand. Have u had many like crisis during cases that your adrenalin is pumping. I know u have a video where all your monitors went blank. Always love your videos and get excited when u come into my feed 🥰

[darriontunstall]

Great video man!! I always learn a lot from your videos!! I’m gonna start Donating to the Anesthesiologist Foundation since It was hard for me to go to college to be a Anesthesiologist after I graduated high school in 08 because of my cerebral palsy! Good luck with your pediatric fellowship application! I enjoy your videos! I’m 31 from Memphis

[soranuareane]

Oh, those nerve blocks... I've had more ilioinguinal blocks and ablations than I can count. I've become quite familiar with the various machines they use. Glad I'm beyond that.

[gabrielmoracil]

Good luck with your pediatric anesthesia fellowship application :)

[iamnotgoldenhar]

I love when you talk about pediatric anesthesia because I'm an adult but have to have pediatric anesthesiologist work on my case when I have surgeries. I have to go to a hospital that offers the pediatric anesthesia and doctors
