Feeling *so* grateful to have had my first interview at a dream program today. Also remembered how much interviews trigger my imposter syndrome! #MedTwitter, any tips on how to manage during interview season?

[Catherine Yang @catherineyang_1]

@dr_dietzsche Thank you! Hoping to see more clearly what they’re seeing in me!

[Catherine Yang @catherineyang_1]

@IrisWangMD Food for thought - thank you!

Just witnessed a nurse bring a Muslim patient a ham&cheese sandwich.

The patient kindly refused&explained she can’t eat it.The nurse replied “I’ll pick out the ham”

The patient kindly said “I’m sorry I can’t eat it”
This is not ok.Why are dietary needs not catered for in 2022?!

*We* are *the* problem.
*We* are *the* solution.

@ShakiraaHarding Yes! Also releasing interviews during business hours in their time zone would be AMAZING. Am ultimately grateful for the II, though scheduling at 12am and 6:30am wasn’t amazing

As a medical interpreter, I'm often invisible — intentionally so. But being in the shadows has shown me what patients at times desperately need.

My perspective on being an interpreter, in @JHospMedicine ✍️

@alesandrarau Following because I'm not sure either! One of my cats like to say hi and show off her body on Zoom, but will cry loudly if not in the room with me...!

@chrisyoo95 At Mayo, it's super variable too! From 4/8 wks with the same hospital IM team on IM to different preceptors daily for half of OBGYN! Through it all, it was about what clinical work spoke to me most :) good luck!

Proud that @OHSUSOM and @Inside_TheMatch are helping #Match2023 applicants navigate how to #AskAboutAbortion during interviews this year! Please participate by sharing your insight for applicants facing the professional and personal fallout of abortion restrictions.

Given my last tweet... I think this patient decision aid is a helpful resource for discussing opportunistic salpingectomy with all your patients 😀

[Valerie Melson @valerie_melson]

For years, I've seen stats on the higher rates of hysterectomies for Black women... but this stings, especially after finishing my MIGS Sub-I and witnessing how effective counseling led every hysterectomy patient to choose opportunistic salpingectomy. The implications 🥺😢...

[Catherine Yang @catherineyang_1]

@alesandrarau Good luck good luck! Sending you all the good vibes :)

The stress of Step 2 + ERAS got me yesterday so here is a video of a cat discovering a treat. MS4s, take care of yourself. #MedTwitter #obgyntwitter
