A flash flood of Magpies supporters is expected to rise today, peaking in the afternoon. This sea of black and white originated in Collingwood, but it’s anticipated the flood of footy fans will be seen side by side across Melbourne and all of Victoria. #gopies

Dr Patrick Johnson of the critically important Victorian Doctor’s Health Program outlines this necessary service for supporting doctors with a wide range of illnesses to return to health and medical practice. Remember this is a service that serves all of Australia. #ANZSVS2023

If you need an example of how serious this gets, and the fact that can and probably will touch all of us, you can’t look past the story of Dr Carrie Cunningham. #ACMAV2023

[Jason Chuen @ozvascdoc]

Thanks @AcademicSurgery Past President Prof @lubitz_carrie MD for sharing the personal toll many doctors bear for their patients, communities & careers. It is so important we look after our own health too. https://t.co/xLXzFEw5ob Ping @AstecAustin @DrGERidd @VDHP3 @amavictoria

On a similar theme #ACMAV2023 welcome Dr Sonia Davison on Hypoactive Sexual Desire and Female Sexual Function - in between her blatant, black & white, one-eyed advocacy for @CollingwoodFC at the #AFL23 Grand Final today.

Tips:
1. For most people recommending changing partners is not a great strategy.
2. Placebo effect is powerful - in up to 30%.
3. Psychological issues abound.
4. Testosterone therapy can work - with some side effects.
5. Don’t be afraid to moisturise… down there. #ACMAV2023
