I don't know any neurosurgeons IRL. Thankfully?
He's the 2nd neurosurgeon who's story I'm reading/watching/listening to.

The first was Paul Kalanithi, author of When Breath Becomes Air.


Just sharing if anyone's interested...

Bot neurosurgeon, but doctor. I wonder do male doctors really will control their composure when examining female patients, especially those hot types.

Correct what, he said most of the surgeries he perform can be avoided, and those surgeries didn't really solve the patient underlying problems.

from youtube comments:

In summary, Gooby, a former neurosurgeon with 20 years of training and experience, left his career due to dissatisfaction and ethical concerns about the effectiveness of his work.
He discovered that lifestyle factors like diet, exercise, and stress management were more crucial for patients' recovery than surgeries, which often did not address underlying issues.
Gooby struggled with the realization that the medical system was not set up to promote true healing, which led to ethical conflicts and a sense of being stuck in a job he no longer believed in.
With his wife's support, he decided to quit his job, despite having no clear plan for the future, to avoid continuing a life that was making him unhappy.
He started a YouTube channel to document his hikes and time spent with his dog, finding solace in nature and aiming to cherish the moments with his pet while exploring new possibilities for his life.

This morning also pop up for me, when something gets popular and trending, Youtube will keep push it up for other people to watch.

It was 3.5 mil this morning, 4.8 mil now, it is definitely trending, less than a week to reach such numbers is rare

He is a neurosurgeon in the USA no less who has become disillusioned and/or burnt out and has decided to take a break from doing what he's been doing for the last 20 years of his life (he has never said he has quit medicine for good - please correct me if I'm wrong)

He is the top 1% of the 1%. He has, for all intents and purposes, won the rat race and earned his freedom

Remember that when you're lying flat
