"I was a patient at Children's of Alabama and both of my parents are nurses, so I had significant exposure to medicine for as long as I can remember. I'm inspired to be like the doctors who have always taken care of me." - Noah Learn More: https://t.co/dtpoUzdgwE

Happy anniversary 🎉

It's been one year since we moved into our beautiful clinic space on the third floor at UAB Hospital-Highlands!

We're so thankful for the additional space in this clinic and the dedication of our staff and providers.

At the @STFM_FM meeting, Dr. Sumayah Abed shared a poster on how she is taking medical education to the streets — literally. Her course allowed students to get hands-on experience alongside @livehealthsmart! They logged 126 hrs in the field, serving 235 patients. #communityhealth

Nice work @FaustinMarcia !!

[Dr. Katie Rizzone @DrKatieRizzone]

Amazing talk by @FaustinMarcia. Not because of the subject of the talk (but great learning of how to make big time split minute decisions in athlete care). Because that’s the best breakdown of the biopsychosocial model I’ve ever heard. The model originated at @UR_Med #amssm2024
