@LeahHoustonMD @srussel10 Always so shocked how so many people are still so shocked to see female doctors.

In my lifetime I will be afforded opportunities over my darker skin colleagues bc of my lighter skin. People will consider me the “safer” option. My goal is to make them regret that. Not bc I won’t crush any position I take (I will) but bc I won’t be tokenized. #LiftAsYouClimb

Did you know if you let a non-physician practitioner (NPP) such as a nurse practitioner or physician assistant provide you with their version of "medical care" they can screw up and then say, "Well, what did you expect? I'm not a real doctor." #PhysiciansforPatientProtection

Imagine criminalizing food and water but not assault weapons.

Imagine working a 40-hour work week and getting paid only for 22 of those hours? Now imagine doing that for a lifetime? That’s what it’s like to be a Latina woman in this country.

One of our trauma patients told a team of three women surgeons that we needed to find a man who could support us financially, so I docked him a point on his GCS for confusion.

@truthbombshere I think about my parents or grandparents having to see this person in a clinic and i legit feel frightened. Take away all the turf wars, etc & ur left w laymen who are fumbling with people's LIVES. SMDH.

More people on #MedTwitter are currently discussing donuts than are discussing anti-trans bills that would put Pediatricians in prison for treating trans kids w/ the standard of care 🙃

@GallaherCaren This is no defence of cartels... this is in defence of the children who have no other recourse and have nothing to do w the US COVID rates. U think their parents want to send them here? They are being murdered. They have no choice.

[The Unprofessional MD @UnprofeshMD]

@CatherineEPDoc @GallaherCaren Thank u for pointing this out. disappointed that such a simplistic view of this matter is being expressed.

[The Unprofessional MD @UnprofeshMD]

So is this when y'all are gonna admit that this was your plan all along?

[Patients First @HalstedMD]

Make no mistake - #NP's think they do your job and deserve the same pay as someone that spent a decade more in training!

Believe it or not, the partner you choose will heavily impact the trajectory of your life.

[Texas Osteopathic Medical Association @TxOsteo]

Physicians have 7-12 years of clinical training before independent practice. APRNs have 60-90 days. APRNs are NOT physicians and should not be allowed to practice medicine independently. #txlege #YearsVsDay #OnlyPhysiciansArePhysicians

This week the #txlege will take up several scope of practice bills.

The Texas Pediatric Society stands united with medicine in support of Physician-Led, Team-Based Care.

If I have to educate another one of my friends on Instagram that Muslim is not a race or skin color, I’m going to lose my shit.

[Dr. Vanessa Grubbs (she/her) @DrVanessaGrubbs]

Normalize 50+ year-old institutions & divisions not bragging about their 1st [insert marginalized group here]. Instead they should be pushed to reflect on why it took them so goddamn long...and what they need to do to make them want to stay. #MedTwitter #AcademicTwitter
