Details: I had to cancel an order as the seller less than 15 minutes after my tickets were bought. Stubhub website said I could be charged UP TO $120 as a fee for canceling. I agree. Now charged for 3x as much. No one believes me or can help me.

So far, have spent 1 hour and 10 minutes (and counting) with customer service, after being blocked from escalating my issue to a supervisor, because of a mistake on StubHub's website. This is the worst ticket company I have ever dealt with. @TeamStubHub

When I was a PGY-1, neuro-oncologist Dr. Darin Carabenciov taught me a quick yet systematic approach to MR imaging of brain lesions. I am on call this weekend and am still utilizing his teachings to this day! A thread: (1/7)

TLDR: We have two great treatment options for our patients that work well and now we know, also offer good QOL (after the 1st year). It’s exciting to be able to personalize treatment based on patient’s values, priorities and social circumstances along with our Rad Onc colleagues.

RT statistically superior (p = 0.049) to TORS for swallow outcomes in T1/T2 OPSCC BUT “differences did not meet the threshold to qualify as a clinically meaningful change at any timepoint”
