Honored to host Dr. Jim Spies on the latest @SIRspecialists Kinked Wire podcast.

We discussed building credibility and goodwill as physician leaders, navigating healthcare system demands, leading IR teams, and lessons from his remarkable career. 🎙️

A candid conversation about IR attrition, why residents are questioning the specialty, and most importantly, what we can do about it. Proud to host this one with @drmittelstein on BackTable🎙️

Six years of IR residency: 10% medicine, 90% asking, "Can we get another roadmap?”

An incredible journey with an amazing team. Six years ago, I was beyond excited to join the #HoyaIR fam. Today, calling myself a @Georgetown_IR-trained interventional radiologist feels surreal. Grateful for the training, mentorship, friendships & memories!

[Saher Sabri @saherssabri]

Proud of our graduating chiefs. What an amazing duo. Wishing you all the best @Georgetown_IR

[Nariman Nezami, MD @NNezami1]

Thank you Harjit for all your efforts to create such a great session

"One of the strengths of serving in SIR leadership is continuity. I've had the privilege of serving as secretary, then president-elect, and now president-and that structure allows us to keep moving forward.

That forward momentum is built into everything we do at SIR. We see it in our education efforts, practice development, quality improvement, research, advocacy, and partnerships across medicine." - SIR President, @saherssabri

[Neil K Jain @DigitalAngio]

Pictures with the president @saherssabri! Grateful to train under a leader of the department and of the society.

Last lap as a trainee & somehow ended it co-chairing it with my partner-in-crime @GreggKhodorov…not a bad way to go out!

Nothing beats watching your friends level up- still finding familiar faces in the crowd & meeting plenty of new ones.

Until next time…as an attending! 😎
