This is Dr. Cathy Flood, a professor and urogynecologist.

It is crucial that as we fight the disinformation coming from Danielle "I'm not a doctor" Smith about trans health care in Alberta, we also amplify experts and share their knowledge.

There is a concerted attack on evidence-based harm reduction interventions like the distribution of sterile drug use equipment. Decades of research has shown that distribution of sterile drug use equipment reduces HIV and hepatitis transmission, saving our health system $ - a 🧵

On Thank a Resident Day, here are a few things you may not know:

1. Residents work 60-80+ hours/week & make around $12-18 per hour. They get no extra pay for extra (residency) shifts.

2. They often work 28 hours straight & can be sleep deprived for much longer on “home call.”

A few thoughts on Danielle Smith's plan to restrict medical treatments to transgender youth.

As a lawyer, I don't pretend to have a detailed understanding of the medical science surrounding these courses of treatment.

But neither do policymakers, generally.

@MacNaughtonLab Congratulations!

This list contains some of the most prominent names in Addiction Medicine in #Alberta. Is @edmontonpolice listening? When dozens of physicians who work in this field are warning you of the dire consequences of these actions, please take notice

Just out in @MedTeachJournal, we validate the Climate Wise slides, an open-access teaching slide deck organized by medical specialty, as an effective didactic pedagogical tool for planetary health #MedEd 🌎🩺 1/2 https://t.co/J7Sk25MKQ7

[André Picard @picardonhealth]

Could a dedicated medical school for family doctors help solve the shortage? @QueensUHealth has just launched such a program, by @katiederosayyj https://t.co/1HjPAm4oaN via @VancouverSun @DrRitaMc #MedEd

[Doreen Rabi, M.D. @doreen_rabi]

Dear #MedEd, #MedTwitter, @yycMDs, @CalDomMed - the amazing woman next to me has lead UME endocrinology education for 11 years. We want to let Dr. Bassyouni know how much her care, generosity & dedication as a teacher matter. Pls DM/email me pictures, stories & well wishes. 🙏💕

Exposure to heavy wildfire smoke in pregnancy has been associated with a higher rate of preterm birth and other complications. We need to talk about this.

[Dr. Shazma Mithani @DrShazmaMithani]

Recently, I’ve heard some comments about how people should have to pay to go to the ER so that it makes them think twice about going to the ER for things that aren’t an emergency.

As an ER doctor, I want to tell you why this isn’t a solution to ER overcrowding.

[Jon Meddings @JMeddings]

Well, so after multiple emails and DM’s I’m going to attempt to answer my own (rhetorical) question. Why aren’t physicians coming to Alberta to train as family physicians? A short thread. /1

[Nicole Prince @NicoleLMan]

@cashmobstalbert Love it Heidi thank you 🙏🏼

[Jane Philpott @janephilpott]

268 unfilled residency positions in family medicine in the CaRMS match yesterday. Highest number ever.

We have a serious problem to manage together. Why are med students not choosing a career as a family doc (best specialty ever😀)?

Many reasons - some of it is on us...🧵

@tylerwarnock_ @UBCmedicine Congratulations!

[Ashley Winter MD || Urologist @AshleyGWinter]

RANT: Can we stop calling these feminine products & instead call them menstrual products? I don't feel extra feminine when I'm menstruating. Also- plenty of feminine people don't menstruate. We don't need a euphemism for period products because periods aren't dirty or evil.

Many patients don't know about the hidden paperwork and administrative duties that family doctors do.

Today I did the following (on my day off):
