doctor's diary

let's talk about whether doing medicine is all worth it in the end or not? probably a question that people ask themselves on the more difficult days at worth but tbh actually has a pretty simple answer at the end of the day. I also reflect on maintaining mentors between hospitals and how difficulty it is getting into different specialties. watch me on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@imasperharry other places to find me or message me :) https://linktr.ee/asperharry

I reflect on my time in medical school, what it was like, some of the best things to learn and what I would've changed. listen to my actual thoughts on it now that I am a doctor and hopefully this puts it into perspective what would be best to get out of it for current or future medical students. watch me on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@imasperharry other places to find me or message me :) https://linktr.ee/asperharry
