The resident physicians at Howard University Hospital make history by carrying on Howard's vital legacy.
They should not have to work second jobs and be paid the lowest wages of residents in the District of Columbia.
I call on Howard to reach a fair contract.

This past Feb my home Orthopaedic residency program lost its accreditation.
And this past March I matched into a general surgery preliminary position, after applying into Orthopaedics & going unmatched.
I am an undrafted free agent with All Star potential, I just need a chance.
As a HUCM student this has been extremely heartbreaking news & a huge loss to the Orthopaedic community as a whole and to the DC patient population @acgme — Howard University Orthopedic Surgery Program loses accreditation, citing ‘structural issues’ - https://t.co/bE140Eo6Y4
Jalen Brunson WENT OFF for a new career-high 50 points (35 in the 2H) as he led the Knicks to a W in Phoenix!
🔥 50 PTS
🔥 17/23 FGM (12/12 FGM in the 2H)
🔥 9/9 3PM
HE becomes the 1st player since 1979-1980 to score 50+ PTS while shooting 100% from 3-PT (min. 8 attempts).
truly believe now God purposefully places amazing experiences and then purposefully places large hurdles for me to traverse to prove to myself how badly do I want it — how badly do I want to become an orthopaedic surgeon?
Great great place to learn the practice of orthopedic surgery! High volume hands on trauma! Trauma is the foundation of what we all do! You learn anatomy, think critically, every case is a bit different! Would not be the sports medicine surgeon I am today without it!
Went to the beach and saw the sunset (I love taking photos so this was a can’t miss opportunity) — Also I got to play a little bit of pick up basketball on my off day with the residents, threw down this little number between games 🙂
Last ortho sub-I rotation at USC+LA County hospital - had a blast, worked hard!, a ton of experience at county, covered USC men’s basketball, gave a presentation on Lisfranc injuries, got to work with & scrub in with my friend & Howard Med alum/PGY 5 Will Hill !! An amazing month
