This lesson hit home during one of my earliest shifts as an ER resident, and it's something that applies far beyond medicine. 🎬 Watch the full video here: The Shift That Humbled Me as a New ER Resident https://youtu.be/vIBMz1AsUJ0?si=g7NxZGlpC_oP9FA9 🔔 If you enjoy behind-the-scenes insights into emergency medicine and lessons on personal growth, consider subscribing: https://www.youtube.com/@JoshKorzan/f?sub_confirmation=1 ✨ Visit here for RP Strength training and diet plans!

The Patients I Saw on My First ER Shift No two patients in the emergency department are ever the same—and that became obvious on my very first shift as an emergency medicine resident. In just one shift, I cared for patients with everything from a code stroke to kidney stones, musculoskeletal pain, vaginal bleeding, and more. The variety is one of the reasons I chose emergency medicine. 🎥 Watch the full video: My First Shift as an ER Resident https://youtu.be/wYm2CzNWpJc?si=ViOZfHFiBm6M1A2M 🔔 If you enjoy emergency medicine, medical education, and behind-the-scenes insights into residency, be sure to subscribe for more: https://www.youtube.com/@JoshKorzan/f?sub_confirmation=1 ✨ Visit here for RP Strength training and diet plans!

My First ER Procedures as a Resident One of the highlights of my very first shift as an emergency medicine resident was getting to perform several procedures. On day one, I performed an ultrasound-guided IV, an ocular ultrasound alongside my attending physician, and a laceration repair. It was rewarding to see all of the practice from medical school finally translate into caring for real patients, now as a doctor. 🎥 Watch the full video: My First Shift as an ER Resident https://youtu.be/wYm2CzNWpJc?si=ViOZfHFiBm6M1A2M 🔔 If you enjoy emergency medicine, medical education, and following the journey through residency, be sure to subscribe for more: https://www.youtube.com/@JoshKorzan/f?sub_confirmation=1 ✨ Visit here for RP Strength training and diet plans!

How I’ll Be a Better ER Resident Next Shift No first shift is perfect. After every day in the emergency department, I try to identify one or two specific areas where I can improve for the next shift. Small, consistent improvements over time are what ultimately build confidence and competence. In this clip, I reflect on what I learned from my very first shift as an emergency medicine resident and the changes I'll be making moving forward. 🎥 Watch the full video: My First Shift as an ER Resident https://youtu.be/wYm2CzNWpJc?si=ViOZfHFiBm6M1A2M 🔔 If you enjoy behind-the-scenes insights into emergency medicine, residency, and the journey to becoming a physician, subscribe for more: https://www.youtube.com/@JoshKorzan/f?sub_confirmation=1 ✨ Visit here for RP Strength training and diet plans!

The Shift That Humbled Me as a New ER Resident A few shifts into my emergency medicine residency, I worked with an attending physician who taught me one of the most valuable lessons I've learned so far. At first, I found myself getting defensive. My ego wanted to explain, justify, and push back. But once I stepped back and recognized that the feedback was coming from someone genuinely trying to make me a better physician, everything changed. This video isn't really about medicine—it's about receiving criticism, overcoming your ego, and learning how to grow from honest feedback, even when it's uncomfortable. Whether you're a physician, student, professional, athlete, or simply someone trying to improve, I hope this lesson helps you as much as it helped me. 🎥 Other Videos You May Enjoy: - My First Shift as an ER Resident: https://youtu.be/wYm2CzNWpJc?si=3688JsXjgKC6dgBg - How the Marines Prepared Me for Life as a Doctor in the ER: https://youtu.be/Hcf3OwmEcSM?si=4wnzNaz9gTeewhs- 🔔 *Subscribe* for evidence-based health content and real-world insights from inside medicine: https://www.youtube.com/@JoshKorzan/f?sub_confirmation=1 ✨ Visit here for RP Strength training and diet plans!

3 Level 1 Traumas Hit at Once The last hour of my very first shift as an emergency medicine resident took an unexpected turn when multiple Level 1 trauma patients arrived within minutes of each other. The emergency department instantly shifted into high gear as the team worked to stabilize critically ill patients, with some ultimately requiring transfer by helicopter. As a brand-new ER resident, my priority was continuing to care for my own patients while taking every opportunity to observe and learn from the trauma team. It was an unforgettable reminder of just how quickly everything can change in emergency medicine. 🎥 Watch the full video: My First Shift as an ER Resident https://youtu.be/wYm2CzNWpJc?si=ViOZfHFiBm6M1A2M 🔔 *Subscribe* for evidence-based health content and real-world insights from inside medicine: https://www.youtube.com/@JoshKorzan/f?sub_confirmation=1 ✨ Visit here for RP Strength training and diet plans!
