@BrighamWomens @MassGenBrigham In Elizabeth Fieg’s own words: she would love to personally remove all Zionists (ie Jews) from the Genetic Counseling profession

[Rachel Silva-Smith @RachelssGC]

@ElizFiegCGC Stop it already with the virtue signaling. Don’t bother decrying antisemitism when your antisemitism glares in all your other posts. You are silent about the brutal rape of Jewish women and are unwilling to actually learn anything about the history that has led to this war.

@DenaTalksDNA Here’s some shameless self-promotion: I’m proud of the videos I’ve created to provide education about hereditary cancer https://t.co/9O3wLjGZHe

@CanfieldSofia Yes, many GCs specialize in connective tissue disorders! Are you in Canada or the US? If so, you can check out https://t.co/WXxy5Bz9Zh. Under specialty, select “adult”. An expert in this condition is Dr. Stephen Robertson at the University of Otago in New Zealand.

@LibbyMbc @ehgsmith I’m so sorry for this loss❤️ I hope it’s not written for many years but I think it will include “touched the lives of so so many, educated healthcare providers about life with metastatic breast cancer, loved her daughter fiercely”

@GCSierraD Afew years after graduating, I got rid of everything that wasn’t related to my area of practice. But I should probably get rid of everything now since I never reference it

Women are expected to mother as if they don’t have a job and work as if they don’t have kids. You can’t win.

[MDJ | Danielle Jones, MD, FACOG @MamaDoctorJones]

I mentioned that I worked a lot last week, so apparently I’m no longer a mother.
