@miaowlex Came in thinking emergency medicine. Initially matched into psychiatry. Switched to preventive medicine!

[Alison Yarp, MD, MPH @alisonyarpmd]

@HarveyGuzman_ I switched after my PGY-1 year, so happy to discuss!

[Alison Yarp, MD, MPH @alisonyarpmd]

Landed in Chicago for the first time ever! Excited to be the @ACPM_HQ resident delegate at the @AmerMedicalAssn meeting and support #prevmed and #meded.

Enjoying the likely last week or so of spring weather. Yes, Marie is on a leash because I don’t trust her. She’s wily 😂 #CatsOfTwitter

Needed a reset, so I did something I haven’t done in years. I laid in the grass. Always amazing how something so simple can be so satisfying.

@LydiaYKang I love how the handle is still gone! As it should be!

[Alison Yarp, MD, MPH @alisonyarpmd]

@LydiaYKang As a fellow #publichealth nerd, that is so cool!

@NotSoLilMD I love crocheting and am trying to get back into it! This is such a cool pattern!

@monicalimco I'm thinking about just doing a page on the existing organization website

[U.S. Surgeon General @Surgeon_General]

.@FDA's approval of over-the-counter naloxone gives more Americans access to a lifesaving tool. Immediate response to an opioid overdose can save lives, and expanded access to naloxone will help shorten the time to respond. https://t.co/720I71Brtb

[U.S. FDA @FDA]

Today, FDA approved a naloxone hydrochloride nasal spray for over-the-counter, nonprescription, use – the first naloxone product approved for use without a prescription. https://t.co/KA9OSjDKiP

@Surgeon_General @DGlaucomflecken Be comfortable with silence. Sometimes it is what is needed.

@ashishgandhi91 How long are you in ATX?

[Alison Yarp, MD, MPH @alisonyarpmd]

After a successful #PM2023 with @ACPM_HQ, I am returning to New Orleans for the @APTRupdate conference. Excited to continue to talk with others about #prevmed and #MedEd! #MedTwitter

[Alison Yarp, MD, MPH @alisonyarpmd]

Not sure how we got last minute tickets in the 7th row to #TaylorTomlinson, but it’s happening. I could not be more excited for some laughs.

[Alison Yarp, MD, MPH @alisonyarpmd]

Had such a great time speaking on spreading the word of #prevmed at #PM2023! Thank you to @ACPM_HQ for the opportunity! #MedTwitter

[ACPM @ACPM_HQ]

Wrapping up another great day at #PM2023 with Alison Yarp presenting on how to ensure the preventive medicine and public health physician workforce continues to grow, how to understand preventive medicine as a specialty and how to keep the conversation going!

[Alison Yarp, MD, MPH @alisonyarpmd]

@SandraMGiraldo1 Mainly I was not entirely content with only doing individual level care. While I miss psychiatry, I want to bring mental health to my work in #prevmed and public health, as it is still very important to me!

[Alison Yarp, MD, MPH @alisonyarpmd]
