they’re calling it the go on a 15 minute walk around the neighborhood without spending $27 challenge. few have attempted it and even fewer have succeeded

[Mark Lewis, MD, FASCO @marklewismd]

There’s no good reason this place should be exclusive to airports

[Ch(aortic) Stenosis M.D. @MySystolic]

Can’t wait for a med student to ask me a question because they think they have to impress me to get a good eval when the reality is that I’d give them all high grades in exchange for like a singular donut.

[Nick Mark MD @nickmmark]

We ordered boba 🧋but there weren’t enough straws. Fortunately an 8.0 ETT works in a pinch…

[Sydney Battle @SydneyBattle]

me reminding myself that the northern lights will continue to exist and that i can go to see them at another time of my choosing and make a whole trip of it if i would like

[Glen O'Humeral @HumeralO]

Financial freedom to me is being able to buy a meal for any and all residents or students on shift with me at that time. If people expect to be fed when they see they’re on shift with me, that’s when I’ll know I’ve made it

[katie @katefeetie]

every time work gets hard or gets me down, I think about her. she's what i'm doing all of this for. one day she'll be mine

[Bradley @bbheinz]

uh oh i am in trouble

[status annoyicus @medburnbook]

medicine is great but I think I’d like to be a professional vacation girlie now thank you

[Melina Manolas, MD, MPH @melina_manolas]

The need to request vacation 1 year in advance during medical training always gets me

[Tina Lam, MD @tina_lam12]
