Dr Deshauer has passed her Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada rheumatology licensing exam, marking a significant milestone in her career.

Dr Deshauer’s vlog has become not only a platform for sharing medical insights but also a form of self-expression and healing.

The Pandemic’s Impact :

The COVID-19 pandemic presented unprecedented challenges for healthcare professionals around the world, and Siobhan was no exception. As the virus spread, Dr. Deshauer grappled with her own fears and the flood of conflicting information. She took stringent precautions, even resorting to keeping her phone in a sealed bag and meticulously sanitizing her surroundings.

Tragically, Siobhan and her husband, Mark Weatherall (also a doctor), fell ill with COVID-19 themselves. They experienced weeks of debilitating symptoms, including fatigue, aches, and a racing heartbeat. Despite their own health struggles, Dr. Deshauer continued to provide care for her patients, witnessing firsthand the devastating impact of the virus.
Throughout the pandemic, Siobhan aced emotional challenges without the usual support network of fellow residents and nurses.
During these obstacles, Dr. Deshauer continued to share her experiences on camera, expressing raw emotion and providing a glimpse into the reality of the front lines.
