Proud to see @WomenInThoracic in @nytimes. The challenges highlighted are real, yet our meeting was filled with positivity, momentum, and a commitment to a better future for our mentees, patients, and daughters.

Lung Cancer Awareness Month just ended, but the discourse must go on. We must strive every day to further knowledge, research, and compassionate care for patients with lung cancer. Engage with these content experts to stay abreast of the discussion. #LCSM

Why do I operate on stage IV NSCLC?
Yes, patient selection is critical. Yes, the cases can be technically quite challenging.
But, sometimes we provide life-changing hope to patients. This privilege is the reason why I became a doctor.

IMHO Social media can help amplify your academic career. But it can never take the place of the needed work.
As @JBMatthews has noted: “no substitute for substance”
(At least I think @JBMatthews said that…😊)

I am a CT surgeon, and I’m privileged to play an enormous role in the lives of all four of my children as well as those of my patients and their families. To be clear, women are wanted, needed, and can succeed in CTSurgery.
