@lestachel What a wonderful surprise today to witness @wecaresolar install at the @FIMRC clinic here in Bududa, Uganda. The staff will no longer have to deliver infants by headlamp alone! #HealthForAll #tweetiatrician #MedTwitter

And I’m off to the #FIMRC clinic in Bududa, Uganda with a big old suitcase filled with donated medical supplies from generous friends! #HealthForAll #tweetiatrician

@greenhousemd Is it a state regulation, or insurance regulation that is preventing you? If it’s insurance, they should be called out. Ultimately it will cost them more in the end to delay treatment—unfortunately the only thing that may motivate them probably.

@elonmusk Also the pediatricians who take care of families who see respect for preferred pronouns as a sign of safety and your insensitive tweet as nothing more than the same bullying that you received as a child. And yet you profess to “love humanity?” Prove it @elonmusk #tweetiatrician

@blikethecheese @AshleyGWinter @replyall Great podcast with investigative reporting on interesting stories that involve the internet.

It’s 7:30PM at a medical office complex. I bet you can’t guess which car belongs to the pediatrician. 😂 #medtwitter #tweetiatricians

I pride myself on putting toddlers at ease so they don’t cry during an exam, but today I met my match. Who knew #pediatrics could be hazardous to your hearing? #tweetiatrician #MedTwitter

@sftydc You could make a case that maybe you should be worried. Sorting by color and naming them at 2 is a bit atypical, while scribbling would be a bit more typical. Never discount a mother’s concern that something isn’t typical with their child.

@andythekiddoc Slate grey macules you mean?

So that I may once again comfort a crying newborn, give a high-five to the child who starts eating his vegetables, shake the hand of the teenager who got into their first choice college, or put an arm around the mom who needs to know it’s going to be okay. #thisisourshot #vaccine

My good friend @AnthonyTuckerMD is still in the ICU battling COVID. Please send him some love today #MedTwitter

Although no one will want to see this Dad bod here it is in full support of my female colleagues and this misogynistic study. Without my female mentor in medschool and the one in residency, I wouldn’t be the surgeon I am today. #MedBikini
