Day in the Life: Neurologist

Perry Smith, MD, is medical director for the stroke program at Adventist HealthCare Shady Grove Medical Center in Rockville, Maryland. He’s led the hospital to national recognition for its fast, high-quality stroke care, including certification from The Joint Commission for mechanical thrombectomy, a breakthrough minimally invasive surgical treatment for stroke.

It's so sweet, when at the very end, as he's recalling his case, he's like "it's one I think about a lot." It really shows how much these professionals care about their patients.

As a person who never had good experience with doctors or hospitals, those videos restore my faith in doctors and prove that there are still people who care and know what they are doing.

I'm in the middle of my undergrad and currently thinking of doing neurology for postgrad. Love that it showed me a glimpse of what my future might be (hopefully🥺🤞🏼)

God bless you neruodoctors! My father had a total of 11 STROKES!! The only thing that took him out was pancreatic cancer, and even that almost lost! A large chunk of his recovery was done by you angels!

My eye doctor recommended I see a neurologist! Anyone can give me more info!

[pugnacious]

en I could finally open my eye I only saw yellow. Life went on around that time I started having nose bleeds only when I slept. That went away after a few months. Fast forward I’m 18 I did cocaine started having seizures so I stopped but the seizures didn’t. I ended up in a wheelchair lost the use of my legs after a year regain the ability to walk. After a year seizures stopped never came back. Was told I had an avm that was the cause of my seizures but I didn’t fit all the criteria. Said avm was a birth defect. They couldn’t find the real reason. Fast forward 24 I get into a minor car accident they do scans see I have a facial fracture n a broken neck. After further inspection see the fracture is old and the cervical subluxation was a birth defect. I realized the facial fracture was probably from when I fell as a child. My father never took me to the doctors for the fall just put an eye patch to cover the black eye. Could the fall have caused the avm and cervical subluxation? If so would that explain issues in my mental cognitive and physical pain now at 35?

I have a dream of becoming a neurologist can anyone tell me what do I need to study for it?
