Happy Sunday #medtwitter! My name is Rachel Nation (yep, like the country) and I am an MS4 applying to #GenSurgMatch2022 this cycle! I’m passionate about mass incarceration and love to paint. Fun fact: I have fractured each of my limbs 2x. #Match2022

[K Brooke Golisch, MD MS @BrooketheOstomy]

I have such PTSD from medical school evaluations that literally I just got tachycardia from receiving an email that a new review has been posted for me.........from my Airbnb host.

[Rachel Nation, MPH @Rachel__nation]

@Angela_W_Zhang OH YES GIRL !

[Gabriel Bosslet @gbosslet]

Today I heard a resident say "Being a good physician is just being a good human with medical knowledge" and this nails my philosophy exactly.

@FranciscoPiRaM @Inside_TheMatch @IMG_Advocate @ImgJourney YOU GOT THAT SHOT!! Woohoooo

[Rachel Nation, MPH @Rachel__nation]

@CarleshaBlades Happy birthday! May you experience BLESSING on BLESSING now and always !

[Rachel Nation, MPH @Rachel__nation]

@Miriannie_ Don’t fret lovely- hold your head high and remember what gave you the motivation in the first place.

[Rachel Nation, MPH @Rachel__nation]

@EERyanGenSurg Proud of you! Falling artwork perspective: you keep it there as a reminder to keep holding on through all the stuff that can weigh you down😉.

[Rachel Nation, MPH @Rachel__nation]

This is the worst feeling.

[Ronay Thomas @RonayTmed]

Getting emails about diversity recruitment from programs that rejected me seems like cruel and unusual punishment….

[Angela, M.D. @AngelaUbanwa]

I paid for my application fees with my mom's credit card and I just realized if I had to pay for it with mine, I couldn't because my credit limit is too low...that's crazy. How can we expect anyone to have the money for this?

It's offensive that some people think of social justice work as a respite from "real" work.

[James W. Stewart II, MD, MSc @stewartwjames]

Mentoring has always been a passion of mine and key to my success. If I can’t help people get to where I am and beyond, then I am not doing my job right. Not enough minorities in medicine? We’ll change the stats one step at a time. Excited for the panel.

[Rachel Nation, MPH @Rachel__nation]

@SheridanReedMS4 YES! Be proud because you have everything to gain girl!!!

[Sophia K. McKinley MD EdM @SophiaKMcKinley]

Been thinking about this figure a lot in anticipation of the next @Surg_Education tweetchat! Time for surgeons to think about how med students are exposed to surgery. Join us Tuesday 9/28, 9pm Eastern! #GenSurgMatch2022

[Tiana Raphel, MD @TianaRaphel]

To med students doing ERAS, & especially to those who will be the first docs in your families, you’ve already done the hard work of making it this far!

And that deserves a round of applause. Now’s the time to highlight your strengths, believe in yourself & trust your journey

[Rachel Nation, MPH @Rachel__nation]

Dr. Castañón, an incredible surgeon and my incredible mentor, I can’t begin to express my gratitude to you for your help thus far; I’m ever so thankful for your support!! #ILookLikeASurgeon

did it hurt? when you told yourself you would take a 30 minute power nap but you woke up 4 hours later

I hate when I tell people I want to be a trauma surgeon and the first question they ask is if I plan on having kids. Yes I do. Thanks for asking.
