Look, I know not all of my patients need Neuro consults but maybe sometimes I just want to see some Neuro folks and talk about cranial reflexes for a few minutes #medtwitter #prelim #neurotwitter

@amedicalfuture It took me five years. I got into a great school and now a great residency program. I don't know you, but if you know yourself and this is what you want, you can get there.

1.) Time for a mini rant: A lot of people need to hear this, so here we go: There is NO (zero, none) new evidence that suggests that Sars-CoV-2 was created in a lab and then escaped. In fact, most scientists still hypothesize it jumped from animals to humans.

@Science_Baller Also, vaccines aren't 100%, so please continue to be careful. Lost a vaccinated family member this weekend because somebody thought it was all good now.

@Science_Baller What are the juiciest ones? Any fashion complaints?

@M_A_S_M_A_B @CWRUSOM Can't wait! Lots to learn, lots to do, and many people we can help

[Eric Curfman, MD @CurfmanMd]

@Science_Baller Congratulations!

Today is my last day of medical school. Which is weird because it definitely feels like I just got started. But that's also weird because I think back on how little I knew when I started, how much I know now, and how much more I still have to learn.
