Monday @GLawsonSmith1 and I scrubbed with @CPaulMD. Today We scrubbed with @ErikaPetersenMD! Did you get to do any complex cases with your friends this week? I did! #Teamwork.

Multi specialty pain fellowship education in action @uamshealth! @UAMSPain @UAMSneurosurg

[Johnathan Goree MD @DrJGoree]

Hospitals never close and nurses are always by the bedside! Thankful for all the nurses that are working #DayAfterChristmas , especially my team at @UAMSPain. Our patients got excellent care today, just as any other day of the year. @uamshealth @UAMS_Anes.

[Johnathan Goree MD @DrJGoree]

Please Join us for our last @ArkansasImpact lecture. So excited for next year where we will be moving to a multidisciplinary (chronic pain, palliative care, psychiatry, pharmacy, and physical therapy) telemedicine clinic! Serving the people of #Arkansas! @uamshealth @UAMS_Anes

This pin represents so much growth as a clinician, researcher, lecturer, teacher, leader, and policy maker. Thank you @uamshealth for the opportunity to grow here and I hope I contribute as much to you and you do to me. #ILoveArkansas @UAMS_Anes #Somedocs @ARexpats

In medicine, I feel like #1 is crucial. Many of the poor leaders I witnessed in my training often blamed other members of the team (nurses, trainees, etc.) when care fell short. Leaders own the entire team's losses and give others credit for the wins. Thanks @sjutt

[Johnathan Goree MD @DrJGoree]

Always a great time representing @uamshealth @UAMSPain @UAMS_Anes on @Power92Jams. I always learn so much from these conversations with listeners on and off air. #SoMeDocs

Simulation session in pain clinic today! Such an important, but overlooked learning tool in pain medicine. #LAST #SafetyFirst #teamworkmakesthedreamwork #painfellowship @GLawsonSmith1 @DrJGoree @CPaulMD @ErikaPetersenMD @JillMhyre

[Johnathan Goree MD @DrJGoree]

Spent the day representing @AAMCtoday @uamshealth and chronic pain physicians in a listening session with @HHSGov to discuss #meded around the #opioidepidemic and #substanceusedisorder. Discussed @ArkansasImpact and other work done at @UAMSPain @UAMS_Anes. Great conversation!

[Johnathan Goree MD @DrJGoree]

Today, people I met for the first time allowed me to place needles within millimeters of their spinal cord. The trust that patients have in me is something that I will never take for granted! #ThursdayThoughts #SoMeDocs @uamshealth @UAMS_Anes

[Christopher Paul, MD @CPaulMD]

Great day in the OR knocking out 3 implants for the SENZA-PDN study with @GLawsonSmith1. Awesome leadership from PI @ErikaPetersenMD has helped propel it forward! Looking forward to the results. @uamshealth @UAMSPain @UAMSneurosurg @DrJGoree @HChoiMD

[Johnathan Goree MD @DrJGoree]

Started my day @uamshealth on @THV11 discussing the #SeniorExpo. Next an SCS trial for the DM Neuropathy study. Noon @ArkansasImpact panel about opioid abuse. Then an #RRR task force meeting to discuss Reimagining @CityLittleRock Parks System! Love my job @UAMSPain @UAMS_Anes!!!!

[Johnathan Goree MD @DrJGoree]

Ended day moderating a conversation between @ArkBlueCross and providers at @uamshealth. So interesting to hear how a payor views the #opioidcrisis. Takeaway: MDs, hospitals, patients, PharmDs, government, AND payors cant be in Silos. @UAMSPain @UAMS_Anes @ASPN_PainNeuro #somedocs

[Johnathan Goree MD @DrJGoree]

82 yo F offered "conservative" treatment. 2 mo. of 10/10 pain to 0/10. Vertebral augmentation is life saving therapy that should be considered for every patient with symptomatic VCF. Educating referring providers is key. It's an uphill battle. @uamspain @dougbeall @WayneOlan

[Johnathan Goree MD @DrJGoree]

There is nothing in medicine like hearing "I'm pain free!" from a patient that has had CRPS for 8 years. It is such a nasty disease, but SHE (not me) did all the work and I am SO proud of her. We might have teared up together. @UAMSPain @uamshealth

[Johnathan Goree MD @DrJGoree]

Today I was asked about the best advice I ever received. Couldnt narrow it to just one. here is one I use every day: "In everything you do, find your core competency and master it". Works in business, works in medicine, works in life. @uamshealth #SoMeDocs #MondayMotivaton

[Christopher Paul, MD @CPaulMD]

First time in 20+ years without chronic pelvic pain. This patient had tried and failed tonic SCS. Pictures like this show how far we've come in #neuromodulation. I'm excited about where we are and where we're going! @UAMSPain @uamshealth @NANS_ION @ASPN_PainNeuro

[UAMS Pain @UAMSPain]

Very rewarding. @HChoiMD

[Heejung Choi, MD @HChoiMD]
