The best thing about medicine is making healthcare a positive experience for all those involved.

Patients, parents, nursing, techs, supportive staff, multidisc teams. Anyone who walks into the medical environment with intent to healed or be heal deserves encouraging experiences.

Between 18 to 24 months speech/language development is most critical! Happy kids are able to express themselves and are less likely to act out feelings of frustration. Plus...

Reading is FUNdamental! 😉📖

Also, witnessing racism impact my patients throughout their care--equally as disturbing-- is something I imagine won't change with my training (anytime soon)

[Dr. J. R. Holmes @DocLoccs]

Nearly daily. Though difficult to tease apart medicine from life, as they intersect in the hospital when dealing with patients & colleagues. From what I hear, no better as an attending. Different, not better.

[Dr. J. R. Holmes @DocLoccs]

@proanoA Thanks Doc! I may need to figure out what I'm doing before you promote me, haha.

[Dr. J. R. Holmes @DocLoccs]

New to this #tweetiatrician thing. I want to talk about the imprint of systemic racism on development & health outcomes, literacy as preventive medicine, COVID vaccine reservations in vulnerable communities, happy babies I see. Everything. All the things. Am I doing this right?
