“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way, though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble at its swelling.”
Psalms 46:1-3 ESV
If you think physicians are overpaid, maybe you should take the necessary course work in undergrad, take and pass the MCAT, apply for med schools, pay hundreds of thousands for tuition, learn for 4 years in a very high pressure learning environment, then pay thousands more to apply for a training job that you may or may not get, then if you do get it, you get to work 80 hours a week making $15/hour for 3 - 9 years wherein more than one day off in a row is a rarity, all the while many normal life events and processes get pushed to the side, then you FINALLY get a “real” job that’ll pay very well but you’ll realize your patients are not your customers (the insurance companies are), they are the product, and you’ll realize you have a lot to learn about the business of medicine in order to advocate for your patients and for yourself in order to be okay.
Then YOU can say “no thanks I don’t deserve to make that much.”
Or you can just skip all of that, realize now that the insurance and hospital system complexes are trying to hoodwink you, and appreciate the life work and care physicians commit to all of us, recognizing that while all things in medicine play a role in what we see today, physicians themselves are not the villain.
They are on our side.
The measure of what makes a good medical student and future physician should not be how many publications they have, but how well they understand and care for their patients. https://t.co/KQK4cphJgW
@sunny should really educate herself on things like this before she makes a claim like this on live TV. Extremely disrespectful to an entire field. @ABCNetwork
Let me be clear about what an Osteopathic Physician (DO) is, as I am an osteopathic physician myself:
@TheView@sunny
1) 2 degrees lead to the practice of medicine in the US- DO’s and MD’s (@AmerMedicalAssn)
2) DO’s are not inferior to MD’s. We work together & train together

20 yrs ago.. we were together.
Many of us said “I’ll go” .. to keep others safe.
All of us said “I’ll comply” with inconveniences at airport .. to keep others safe.
None of us said “You can’t impose anything on my personal freedoms”
What happened to us? #911Anniversary
In January 1968 seatbelts, became required. I was a senior in highschool, and my generation cried, "Don't tell us what to do. This is the land of the free." I didn't join that protest. My mom was killed in a head-on car crash in 1961. Freedom is to be stewarded for other's good.
“We will raise the next generation.
We will teach our children that they live in a land of legends and that nothing can stop them or hold them down...
You can do anything.
You can be anything.
And together we can achieve anything.”

I feel like this hasn't been said for a while so it's worth saying again:
・Wearing a mask
・Washing your hands
・Social distancing
・Not touching others
This is not fear. These practices are how you love your neighbor during a pandemic.
Let everything we do be done in love.
1. The earth is not flat.
2. Elvis is not alive.
3. Bill Gates did not create Coronavirus in an evil plot to depopulate the world and/or usher in the antichrist.
Please, people. The world needs the church. Now is not a good time to lose our minds.
I’m praying God will use the Coronavirus Crisis to awaken the US to the dignity of human life - that we are made in God’s image.
1. The elderly aren’t disposable.
2. The sickly aren’t disposable.
3. The homeless aren’t disposable.
4. The unborn aren’t disposable!

Heedless of danger, they took charge of the sick-ministering to them in Christ-& with them departed this life serenely happy; for they were infected-with the disease, drawing on themselves the sickness of their neighbors & cheerfully accepting their pains.-Dionysius 260AD & 2020?

A great prayer for today- “Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.” (Ps. 19:14)
