With an OTC birth control pill arriving on shelves early next year, let's make sure that it is:

✓ Fully covered by insurance
✓ Priced affordably
✓ On the shelf, NOT behind glass or a pharmacy counter

Comparison is not the thief of joy. Envy is.

Resenting others' success breeds misery and rivalry. Admiring their success brings motivation and learning.

We all compare ourselves to others. A key to growth and happiness is focusing our comparisons on people who inspire us.

#TipsForNewDocs

Some consults are interesting. Some consults are annoying. Some consults seem unnecessary. But that all consults are an opportunity to help a patient and/or educate a colleague, so help, educate, and sign off when you've done so.

Pt prescribed a med- on follow-up, is not taking it.

Wrong: "Pt is noncompliant."

Right: "Pt unable to take med because __. We discussed strategies including __."

Don't start chart rumors - understanding problems >>>> labeling patients.

Representation in medicine goes beyond just increasing diversity for the sake of inclusivity. It positively impacts patient outcomes, reduces healthcare disparities, and fosters a more compassionate and effective healthcare system.

Embracing diversity and promoting representation in medicine is essential for building a healthier, more equitable world for everyone.

In a @KFF study, 90% of women ages 18–64 reported having used contraception in their lifetime, and 76% had tried multiple methods. Our full infographic can help #obgyn patients learn more about birth control options, efficacy, and proper usage: https://t.co/Va4hMWDHKk

Oh you’re going to a teaching hospital in July? Well get ready…

for the most compassionate care from extremely empathetic interns along with their vigilant supervising attendings. Hope you like open ended questions and doctors listening to you bc you’re gonna drown in it.

Today less than 5% of medical images show dark skin. Lack of representation has the potential to negatively affect the quality of healthcare for communities of color. See #IllustrateChange the library of #BIPOC medical illustrations: https://t.co/zwpd2GckPz

This is my dear friend, Nakita.

Nakita and I were medical school classmates and both interns in New York City. Nakita tragically took her own life on May 26.

She is such a beautiful soul. She was so fun to be around. She was intelligent, charismatic, and confident. (1/x)

Life is fleeting and short. Don’t have fly by night relationships with anyone. Cherish your friends, love them, support your parents. Life is not promised for any of us. Leave those that are no longer serving you. Forgive others. Forgive yourself. Have grace with one another

Today in the City Council we introduced a resolution calling on the NYS legislature to pass a bill ensuring easy access to emergency contraception on NY campuses with @EricDinowitzNYC and @CMCarlinaRivera. @nybcap #GettingBusy

Undergrads: I’ll be happy when I get into med school.
Med students: I’ll be happy when I get into residency.
Residents: I’ll be happy when I’m an attending.
Attendings: I’ll be happy when I retire.
99% of physicians have the ‘I’ll Be Happy When’ disease

Here’s how to fix it:

[Governor Kathy Hochul @GovKathyHochul]

Exactly one year ago, the Dobbs decision was leaked and the threat to abortion rights became starker than ever before.

New York has continued to lead the way to protect and strengthen those rights. Today, we took another major step to increase access to reproductive health care.
