@PaulNWilliamz @nickmmark Yes! Every hospital needs this. I love how whatever number you press will just give you a random number of seconds

[Alexander Beard, MD @alexander_beard]

@PaulNWilliamz Once yearly dosing?

[Alexander Beard, MD @alexander_beard]

@DGlaucomflecken This brings me back to being sent down to the lab as a student halfway through a 10 hour Whipple. I met the nicest pathologist, no hot chocolate but at least I got to sit

[Alexander Beard, MD @alexander_beard]

@DrNicoleC I thought this would be like how to swaddle a baby with a blanket but I googled it and now I’m sad :(

[Alexander Beard, MD @alexander_beard]

@DGlaucomflecken Get a group of like 8 students together and get yourselves on each other’s projects. Spend like one day helping collect data for each other. You can crank out 8+ authorships per year this way.

@PaulNWilliamz I’m sorry you can’t afford the fees for the mission impossible team that sneaks into your grandparent’s place to steal fabric

@Caulimovirus @drjamesdinic How do you find these tweets? Do you have Twitter alerts for whenever someone mentions kidneys or electrolytes?

[Alexander Beard, MD @alexander_beard]

@Caulimovirus @johnnyxbrown Go on a nice run

[Alexander Beard, MD @alexander_beard]

@jacasiegel I always thought it would be nice if they developed a medication that raised your HR for like 30 minutes and made you sweaty to replicate exercise especially for heart health. Then I realized it’s already developed and it’s called cocaine. Which of course is bad for the heart :/

This weekend, the AMA House of Delegates adopted a resolution citing antitrust concerns with the NRMP Match, and calling upon the AMA to study alternatives to the residency match that would be less restrictive on free market competition.

When UNM neurosurgery lost its accreditation in 2019, they lost 8 residents. The university had to hire 23 APPs to replace them. Terrible take.

@samsfeelinggood I feel like either choice would be fine based on what the patient wants

[Alexander Beard, MD @alexander_beard]

@joshmcgoo Kinda reminds me of haldol, board exams make you really scared of it…but in real life, just a risk/benefit thing and it’s fine/useful

[Alexander Beard, MD @alexander_beard]

@joshmcgoo Tweets you can hear

[Dr. Glaucomflecken @DGlaucomflecken]

Choosing a health insurance plan

[Alexander Beard, MD @alexander_beard]

@quality_nguyen I also had this thought but I would need my patients to be buying cough medicine by the quart

[Alexander Beard, MD @alexander_beard]

Enjoying #APAAM23

[Alexander Beard, MD @alexander_beard]

@quality_nguyen I try to just take that 10 and move on. I have the option to be a stickler but I already have all the info I need which is the pain is very bad and warrants treatment. Scale gets useful again after treatment when they give a new number

[Alexander Beard, MD @alexander_beard]

@ABCinAround @KellyLynnWhelan @ibogost @alwaystheself Literally all of those are absurd though

[Alexander Beard, MD @alexander_beard]

@KellyLynnWhelan @ibogost @alwaystheself It’s good that they are willing to fund this but it’s going to lead to an absurd situation where a PhD’s CV will read “Panda Express Fellow”
