Permanente physician, medical educator, bridging leader. Passionate about #MedEd and #HealthSystemsScience to advance whole-person care. Opinions my own.

System Citizenship: Re-Envisioning the Physician Role as Part of the Sixth Wave of Professionalism https://t.co/1hrEq2mzum
The best doctor is not an authority figure who writes prescriptions, but rather a partner in healing — someone who sees patients in their fullest humanity and empowers them to take charge of their health.
That’s what I will always strive to be as America’s Doctor.
More than 194,000 #COVID19 cases identified yesterday. We must get the pandemic under control. Do your part to slow the spread & save lives. #WearAMask. Cover mouth AND nose. Stay 6 feet from others. Wash your hands. Stay home if you can. Get the facts: https://t.co/DmfPOB7nbu.
As #COVID19 cases surge, let’s remember there is no shame in feeling frustrated, scared, and fatigued. It doesn’t mean we’re weak. It means we’re human. The only way we get through this pandemic is by looking out for supporting one another. Pandemics are best fought together.
Less than 15 percent of Americans have been infected by Covid. If immunity is strong & long-lasting (it may well be neither), and if herd immunity kicks in at 60 percent infection (it might be higher), then AT LEAST another 500,000 people will die before we get to herd immunity.
I feel like I'm getting a PhD in Covid this year.

Racism is a public health issue this country must systematically eliminate. We stand up to answer the call to fight for inclusive environments that respect people of all backgrounds and experience. #PermanenteMedicine
@Bob_Wachter@UCSF@UCSFHospitals Another similar & great viz by @jglassman showing state comparisons. Would love some analytics on factors like incident cases, community spread, testing prev & social distancing to understand variations. Could help states that are days behind.
This is #joyandmeaning! Being a part of @ucsfklic, working with these two amazing medical educators, and collaborating with the @clicmedicine international community on value-driven medical education has been an opportunity I never would have imagined a decade ago.
