Sino mag-aakala na ang sikat na celebrity doctor sa TikTok na may mahigit five million followers, dati pa lang nangarap na maging isang director?

Nakakagulat pa na bago siya nag-decide na i-pursue ang medicine career niya, naging pre-med niya ang kursong Communication Arts.

Sa naging exclusive interview ni Pia Arcangel sa kaniyang podcast na 'Surprise Guest', ikinuwento ng internet sensation kung bakit nagbago ang decision niya na mula sa pangarap niyang maging parte ng entertainment industry ay napili niyang manggamot ng kapwa.

Lahad ng licensed physician sa 'Surprise Guest' podcast, “Well madaming factors nun that's influencing my decision. Pero 'yung original plan ko, kasi was from Com Arts mag-aaral sana ako sa Cebu Film Institute.

“However, I was afraid to take the risk, I wasn't sure if I was going to become a successful director or any kind of position in the film industry or entertainment industry.

“So I decided to revert back na lang to my childhood dream, I guess, which is to become a doctor. And my mom is also a doctor. Kaya nung tinanong ko siya kung puwede ba na dumiretso ako ng med school, kahit na Com Arts 'yung Pre med ko, okay lang naman daw.”

Dagdag pa ng guest ni Pia, “So for me I felt like I was going towards the “safe decision” 'yung pagdo-doctor, kasi parang good fall back siya in my head. But, after med school parang hinahanap-hanap pa rin nung puso ko 'yung production and creating videos, writing. Kaya I decided to integrate na lang both my medical degree and Communication Arts degree through content creation on social media.”
