I usually start with these videos that way when I get to class I already understand everything the professor is talking about. Ninja Nerd Science videos usually give me twice as much information in half the time of my professors.

Hey Zach. I'm an mbbs student and today I'm here to wish you a "very very happy teachers' day" man. You certainly are a great teacher and life savior😇. I've my endocrinology test by tomorrow and you're lectures have once again saved from wasting so much extra time on guyton than is needed.

[vinayakkapatral]

I am not a medical student or pre med... as a genomics scientist I can say that Zach does a terrific job explaining!!! Amazing!

That feeling of joy when you finish watching the video and you understand every single thing

I am grateful that you are in YouTube.

Just to clarify: overall net effect of PTH activity is INCREASED blood calcium and REDUCED blood phosphate; VITAMIN D causes INCREASED calcium and INCREASED phosphate. This makes sense if you remember that responding to LOW CALCIUM is the key here - the systems are not trying primarily to alter blood phosphate (which is generally much less clinically concerning at abnormal levels).

Excellent lecture!

[wdmurray]

Our whole PA program is watching your vids as a supplement to our lectures. Thanks!

MBBS student, I've got endocrinology exam tomorrow, you've made me understand everything 😭❤️

[PetertheChanter]

As someone who had primary hyperparathyroidism (adenoma on LR parathyroid), I really appreciate this. I wish gen practitioners knew more about parathyroid problems.

[PacoPacabell]

Why can't the people who get all my tuition money teach like this?

[architasaha]

Yes Ninja nerd you are helping us. Pls make more videos. Thank you for your excellent work .

[danialluqman]

You are a true blessing, you managed to teach me about endocrinology in short videos which doesn't add up to 5 hours, in which my lecturers took 4 classes of 2 hours each to teach but i didn't understand much... THANK YOU SO MUCH NINJA NERD

[brunakelling]

I just wanted to say thank you one more time. I'm a brazilian med student and your classes are so helpful to me. It is amazing to watch and learn with u guys!

[tranformbites]

I have a business background and extremely curious mind and I must say you're making me go to med school for how clearly you explained everything! Makes sense to prepare ourselves prior to going to a doctor and these videos help a lot! Thanks

[Stonefalconetti]

I like those videos (like Dr Najeeb's for example), where you can relax and get knowledge with clear explanation where you don't have to rack your brains to understand.. Well done!!

[maphekomoloto]

Hey it is of great pleasure to inform you that I passed my exams because of your videos, keep up the good work and God bless you, thank you very much.

[drksahil]

[ShekinahRex]
