When you refuse to take no for an answer. You can create the life you desire. You just have to be creative and resilient....

[narendradatla]

Dude you are the definition of hard work..

[talhajat]

Dang!!!😂😂🤣🤣 I was born in 2002 when u started this journey of medicine, and now am graduating high school and you still have a year of residency. Pretty mind boggling.

Respect for making the best out of a tough situation 💪

[davidlakhter]

Amazing story Dr. Webb, you really did defy the odds!!! You inspire me everyday to keep on reaching my goals and become a physician. Keep on inspiring the youth!

[nicoleleverenz]

Thank you, Dr. Webb. I am a medic in the army and have actually just accepted a slot as a fight medic. Similarly to what you did, I am also going to school.
I was a bit disheartened to hear that your medical military background didn't help your med school applications. I will be approximately 30 years old by the time I finish my pre-med degree and finish my military contract. I feel that I'm a bit on the older side of going to medical school, but I'm glad to hear that you stuck through it despite being some years behind your peers.

Thank you, again.

Inspirational is an understatement! From one veteran to another, thanks for sharing your story! My struggles were similar to yours. However, like you I remained persistent and will be starting dental school in the fall! To everyone pursuing their dreams, remain hopeful and always put your best foot forward! You can do it!

Thank you Doctor Webb. I just completed 7 years in the Navy and currently work as a Respiratory Therapist. I intend to follow in your footsteps. Thanks for the advice about there being different paths for everyone to possibly achieve the same goal!

Dr. Webb, your story was so so real and inspiring. I was on my first 15 month deployment in 2003. I was based right behind from you, at LSA Anderson. It was right next the passenger terminal. I just retired, Now I’m doing a career change into medical field as a nurse. It’s weird starting over due to my age and that I’m going to college with my daughter, a future physiologist. In the same sense I feel unstoppable. So don’t stop motivating us. Great video

[thewanderingsurgeonke]
