@JohnRTMonsonMD What a great experience, congratulations. I am sure you enjoyed every mile driving that baby. I am thinking about something similar with Marco…

[Andrea Ferrara MD @Andyf54MD]

@alerepici Sounds good, lower volume always better tolerated , is this available in US?

[Andrea Ferrara MD @Andyf54MD]

@MarkSoliman It is impossible for me to understand how AdventHealth is totally shut down delaying even cancer care while OrlandoHealth is functioning and open for all procedures. We are in the same town!

[Andrea Ferrara MD @Andyf54MD]

@mferraramd @CRCOrlando @KarasJoshua @ASCRS_1 30 years of private practice based training, we should be proud and recognize the achievements of our trained surgeons

[Andrea Ferrara MD @Andyf54MD]

@NicoRotholtz @JohnMarksMD @SamAgarwalMD1 @schoonyoung @SalemJean1 Very nice work, you continue to be an innovative leader!

@DanFitzpatrick @markminervini Relax guys this is a good joke

@SWexner @ColorectalDis @ACPGBI @escp_tweets I appreciate this study but it is suggesting that biology of cancer is really much more important than surgical technique, I hope that genetic staging will help select proper procedure

[Andrea Ferrara MD @Andyf54MD]

@SWexner @SurgJournal Laparoscopic surgery survived immense criticism and eventually proved its value, robotic surgery will need to do the same, we are now going through this process

[Andrea Ferrara MD @Andyf54MD]

@SWexner Wise decision

[Andrea Ferrara MD @Andyf54MD]

@DCRjournal @DrGarciaAguilar @sloan_kettering @SWexner @me4_so @ACPGBI @drtracyhull @ASCRS_1 I used Interstim with some success on such patients

[Andrea Ferrara MD @Andyf54MD]

@DCRjournal @DrGarciaAguilar @sloan_kettering @SWexner @me4_so @ACPGBI @drtracyhull @ASCRS_1 I am not surprised, sphincter saving procedure after chemo-RT is a functional challenge for most patients

[Andrea Ferrara MD @Andyf54MD]

@SWexner Could not agree more, I remember presidential panel at ASCRS, hemorrhoids treatment received 6 different opinions, each one disparaging all the others

[Andrea Ferrara MD @Andyf54MD]

@MarkSoliman @premiumbusiness Interesting point specially when doing telemedicine

[Andrea Ferrara MD @Andyf54MD]

@MarkSoliman @CRCOrlando Mark I wish you the best in your new role, keep in touch with CRC!

[Andrea Ferrara MD @Andyf54MD]

@JohnRTMonsonMD @SoniaRamMD @FergaljFleming @amirbastawrous Patients who are referred to a Colorectal Surgeon need most of all a Rectal exam, anoscopy and possibly flex sig . Frequently I am the first doctor who does a Rectal exam. Telemedicine is limited for our specialty

@justinmaykel @UMNSurgery @ScottRSteeleMD @AntoniodeLacy @KnolJoep @jendavidsmd @SWexner @Sangwleemd @drivadeneiramd @SAGES_Updates @ASCRS_1 @juliomayol I used recently powered circular stapler. I find it is an important improvement for the double staple anastomosis. More precise and effortless

[Andrea Ferrara MD @Andyf54MD]

@justinmaykel @UMNSurgery @ScottRSteeleMD @AntoniodeLacy @KnolJoep @jendavidsmd @SWexner @Sangwleemd @drivadeneiramd @SAGES_Updates @ASCRS_1 @juliomayol If you have not had problems with double stapled anastomosis , why change? Looks nice on a slide however

[Andrea Ferrara MD @Andyf54MD]

@amirbastawrous @CSATSinc One of my favorite suggestion to my fellows: make mistakes slowly

[Andrea Ferrara MD @Andyf54MD]

@SamAtallahMD @coachrose68 @justinmaykel @ScottRSteeleMD @juliomayol @SWexner @slsteinmd1 Agree, fear of “contagion “ kept patients away from hospitals for centuries, doctors would see patients in their homes. Is the big Hospitals short era about to end?
