Equality.

[Amy K Jean, PA-C, AT @AKJthePA]

YES. Or without looking at the imaging that was ordered prior to consulting surgery. 🤦‍♀️

[🪴 coffeeandblades 🪴 @coffeeandblades]

It’s generally considered poor form to consult surgical services without doing any sort of physical exam. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

@PhysEdDoc @DrGolfShirt I would 100% agree with this. Never gets less awkward.

[Amy K Jean, PA-C, AT @AKJthePA]

It’s truly an art form. I also aspire to greatness with this power.

[PA-C Life @PA_C_Life]

My superpower is answering all of the patient’s questions, but leaving the ones I’m not 100% sure about vague enough so I won’t be wrong

YES. 😂 this guy gets it!

[Amy K Jean, PA-C, AT @AKJthePA]

I really wish there was a medical spell check on the iPhone. I promise I’m not trying to say “vascular Jews” - how does it take “vasculature” and turn it into that?! 😑

Accurate.

[Dr. Glaucomflecken @DGlaucomflecken]

I don’t know how anybody can interact with a health insurance company and not come away thinking, “wow this is pure evil.”

[Amy K Jean, PA-C, AT @AKJthePA]

Lol. Yeah, not banking on that.

[Amy K Jean, PA-C, AT @AKJthePA]

@FutrsurgPA Omg I feel this in my (unbroken) bones.

[Amy K Jean, PA-C, AT @AKJthePA]

Husband: “Highly ironic acid?”
Me: “No, I said hyaluronic acid.”
Husband: “It’s weird, bc I’m actually a base.”
Me: 😐😑😐😆

Anyone else have a non-medical SO?

This is the most accurate response to someone saying “I tested negative last week.” #Covid_19

[Dr Eric Levi @DrEricLevi]

Note about covid test.

You can get tested on Monday.
Be exposed to covid on Tuesday.
Get a negative result on Wednesday.
Go out to meet people on Thursday.
Be mildly symptomatic on Friday (“But I was negative”) .
Then get tested on Saturday.
Only to be positive on Monday.

[Dr Eric Levi @DrEricLevi]

Not everyone with COVID19 has fever.
Not everyone with COVID19 has anosmia.
Not everyone with COVID19 has symptoms.
Some will have it and pass it on to others and only realise it when it’s all too late.

Let’s protect each other.

[Dr Eric Levi @DrEricLevi]

How to stop an outbreak:

Stay at home.

If you can’t, then go out prepared:
Wash hands.
Face mask.
Physical distancing.
Do not touch anything or anyone.
Shower & wipe everything when you get home.

Let’s protect each other.

👇 LOVE. THIS.

[Dr Eric Levi @DrEricLevi]

The nasopharynx goes back, not up.

When you take a nasopharyngeal swab or insert nasogastric tube, NEVER aim upwards towards the brain.

Go LOW and go SLOW.
