Since 1998, more than 1.1 billion breast cancer research stamps have been sold in the United States, raising nearly $98 million for cutting-edge breast cancer research. Visit SurgeonsVoice to encourage your elected officials to support this legislation!
Last week, the Breast Cancer Research Stamp Reauthorization Act of 2026 was introduced in both the US House and Senate. Thank you to @SenJackyRosen@SenAshleyMoody@RepBethVanDuyne and @RepDWStweets for your leadership on this important bill!
@VerizonSupport wasted more than 5 hours of my time today. Sent me an extender that does not work wirelessly with my router. Then when I tried order the correct one they sent me to a store to pick it up assuring me it was there. It was not. Spoke with 5 different reps. Just bad!
Now is the time for Congress to #StopTheFullCut by passing my bipartisan Supporting Medicare Providers Act to prevent Medicare reimbursement cuts from taking effect at the start of the new year.
@SamsungUS Our Samsung was great for 9 years but good luck getting a new one. We purchased an "in-stock" fridge and other appliances in June. Delayed 4 times and still waiting. Customer service lied that it was guaranteed this time. Very disappointed with @samsungUS
Tried to read a letter to the editor of General Surgery News entitled "Enough with the Anti-Robot Rhetoric" but was sent to the page below where I had to prove I was not a robot before reading...
Evidence is accumulating that eating in a 6-hour period and fasting for 18 hours can trigger a metabolic switch from glucose-based to ketone-based energy. https://t.co/AkSEMPUpWw

Anyone considering #CoxInternet here is what you can expect. Great customer service from @CoxHelp but completely UNRELIABLE internet. If you ever need to work from home or need reliable connection look elsewhere. we average more than an outage a day.
@CoxHelp Service call on the 8th found "many problems with our install" but didn't fix it. 4 outages today, 4 yesterday and 6 Wed. 62 minutes down this week. I need this fixed or I need out.
@CoxHelp What is wrong with this picture? You can see where I switched from a lower speed competitor but also can see how unreliable your service is. Frequent outages (red Xs) and drops in speed. Sometimes 7 outages per day!
Hong Kong’s unique status as an island of democratic values in a sea of repression is worth protecting – Congress needs to send a clear message that we stand with Hong Kong’s citizens as they fight to defend their freedoms.
Members of the Passamaquoddy tribe are partnering with the Library of Congress to transcribe wax cylinder recordings from 1890 to help bring the tribe's language back to life.

Interesting but unclear if they are tracking outcomes to determine if it creates value for the patient.
Crazy market in the US when it is cheaper to PAY both the patient and surgeon for surgery abroad. https://t.co/90YAdGbOFV
"With VEVA, the Vanderbilt EHR Voice Assistant, the health system is using NLP artificial intelligence from Nuance to help interpret voice requests, and HL7's SMART on FHIR standard to pull pertinent data and provide relevant summaries." https://t.co/E4hJSREhjd
A long article but worth a read. An interesting perspective about the effects of software (good and bad) on physicians or really anyone who has to use computers at work on a regular basis. https://t.co/UgNYkrP02C
