@JohnAgzarianMD Congrats Se In!! I love how DrYoung has formalized his scrubs

[Austin Chiang, MD MPH FASGE FACG @AustinChiangMD]

I predict Ryan Reynolds sharing his colonoscopy (and polyp) will do more for colorectal cancer awareness than half of anything we’ve tried as a GI profession…

…and I’m grateful for every second of it 🥹💙

@AspiringERMD I agree with looking at the long term. Residency was really hard but was not the forever plan. I'm 1.5 y years out and life is so much better ♡ thinking rural/non academic? sign up for an elective somewhere you're interested in. It'll give q much better view of the other side

Vacation day 2. At least I found an intussusception

[Katherine Ocean @KatherineOcean]

I find it really difficult that every health care worker has put their life and their family's lives on the line for each and every patient over the past 2 years but I'm invading people's personal lives if I ask if my hairstylist is vaccinated. I need way more than 15m of work.

@LolaAkinfem It's becoming more rare but until it stops - introducing myself that way inspires confidence and helps.

[Katherine Ocean @KatherineOcean]

@LolaAkinfem This is tough. As a resident and even as a staff there are alot of people that are surprised females are doctors let alone surgeons. Now I always introduce myself as Dr & last name. Otherwise it's frustrating to have the questions.. "when do I see the doc or who's operating on me

Remarkable data from @COVIDSciOntario.
There aren’t many things in medicine that reduce the risk of requiring life support in the ICU by 98.6%, but being fully vaccinated is one of them.
