@joshmcgoo Depends on the cause. In cirrhosis sure. I once drained 18 L off cardiac ascites and they dramatically improved with the decrease in intraabdominal pressures.
@SpencerKeele The Jazz would do the exact same thing they’re doing now but then JJJ, Lauri, and Kessler would all of a sudden be healthy again. The truly bad teams get punished and never get good. It would widen the disparity.
Dr. Josh Kirkpatrick is our December Resident of the Month.
He was nominated by Dr. Carl Shultz for his work on the transplant and cellular therapy (TCT) wards.
Honored and blessed to announce that I matched at @UtahGIFellows! This really is a dream come true.
Special thank you to my mentors and my home program at WVU who had such an impact on me choosing GI and helping navigate this journey. I couldn’t have done it without them!
It’s been an incredible experience at #ACG2025 conference in Phoenix Arizona. Honored to receive the ACG Presidential Poster Award and Outstanding Poster Presenter Award.
