By passing #S3599 now, we can ensure that our workforce is strong and our hospitals are prepared for the months ahead as we fight #COVID19.

It's critical this legislation is included in the #HEALSAct.

The widespread effect of #COVID19 coupled with physician shortages in Arkansas needs bolstering of the Healthcare workforce.
Adding #S3599 to the #HEALSAct will help avert the crisis & save American lives.

Went fishing today, and all I got was this leadless pacemaker that had migrated to a pulmonary artery. Ever done this before @JReinerMD? @VAhealthyhearts

Support #S3599. Healthcare Workforce Resilience Act. This bill clears 15000 immigrant physicians who have an approved immigrant visa petition and are waiting for years to be permanent residents. @VP @SenatorBraun @amyklobuchar @Atul_Gawande @FutureDocs @SHMAdvocacy @wearepaha

🔹cough presents on discharge (Lancet paper)
🔹 more than pneumonia

I just published Why Does LDL-C Decrease With An MI? https://t.co/DEzPc74EoP. Many clinicians are unaware that LDL can decrease a lot with an MI, infections, and surgery.

A middle aged man presented to the ER complaining that he’s been feeling dizzy and short of breath. This fantastic 12-Lead #ECG was recorded.

What’s the diagnosis?

[Sarah C. Hull, MD, MBE @hull_md]

My framework for ethical refusal again in light of latest Trump HHS rule. Withhold treatment if violates our professional duties but not if only offends our religious sensibilities. Practicing medicine is a privilege, not a right, & comes w/responsibilities that are not optional.
