The clock has turned so much towards achieving high scores in step exams, that people are just focused on improving their test taking abilities but that doesn’t necessarily translate into an efficient and compassionate doctors. I have seen people having step scores in 260s and 280s but really miserable, lazy and inefficient doctors. So step scores are not a reflection of how good a doctor you will be in future and how compassionately you will treat your patients.

So excited to share our review article on the rapidly evolving field of Oncoendocrinology. As modern cancer therapies transform survival, recognizing and managing endocrine complications has never been more important, helping patients not just live longer, but live better.

Sharing my new essay @ Journal of hospital medicine.
Behind every “left AMA” is a story. A young mother with DKA left the ICU not because she ignored the risks, but because her children needed her. A reflection on illness, responsibility, and the human stories behind medical decisions. #NarrativeMedicine #MedTwitter #DKA @TheEndoSociety @nymedcollege @NYCHealthSystem @endocrinefeed

Excited to share my new reflection.
What does it mean to care for a patient you may never identify?
“Unknown Chicago” reflects on humanity, dignity, and the silent stories we hold in medicine.

Pain is not always visible.
And sometimes, it is not believed.

My new reflection, “The Pain We Don’t Trust,” explores the quiet space between patient suffering and medical skepticism.

The Other Side of the Table - Nidha Shapoo, 2026 https://t.co/jwR9O4MpTd

[Nidha Iqbal Shapoo @NidhaShapoo]

Physicians spend years sitting on one side of the table.
Sometimes life teaches us what it means to be on the other.

My narrative essay “The Other Side of the Table” is now published.

A reflection on vulnerability, empathy, and the humanity that lives between doctor and patient.

Solid tumors can drive significant coagulation disorders — from venous & arterial thromboembolism to DIC — worsening outcomes in cancer patients. Better awareness & management strategies needed! @oncodaily @HematologyRepo1

Four decades later, has small cell lung cancer really changed?
At ILCS 2025, @RManochakian reflected on the long road from platinum-etoposide in the 1980s to today’s standard of chemo-immunotherapy and second-line lurbinectedin. Progress is real, but the story of SCLC still reminds us how far we have to go.
