Alright Seattle, stop showing off. We know you’re gorgeous (and I’m a sucker for a good hospital sunrise) 🤩

Woke up early. There was no worm.

I’m going to be a trauma surgeon!

So excited to join the University of Washington / Harborview family next year for SCC/trauma fellowship! @SURGCC @harborviewmc @UWSurgery #MATCHDAY

Today's SCOTUS decision is one that will hurt

Striking down Affirmative Action will devastate marginalized communities for a long time...for generations

And here's why:

It was never about race-based admissions

Not your typical grand rounds this morning! Chief resident Alex Tran performed and multiple faculty members and residents shared reflections related to moral injury. #MusicAsMedicine #HealingForTheHealers @UofUSurgery

…what they’re getting!

Behind the scenes of interviewing for fellowship while days away from baby 2. Crib and messy floor in the background and dress clothes that don’t even come close to fitting 😆. #ILookLikeATraumaSurgeon #MedTwitter

What they see…

[Meg Mali @doc_mali]

So grateful to be training at a supportive program and to be surrounded by other surgeon mamas! #surgerytwitter @PhysicianMomsGp

[Utah General Surgery Residency @UtahGenSurgRes]

We can’t wait to meet the newest and tiniest members of our general surgery family! 🥰 Couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day to celebrate with a “Baby-Q” ☀️👶🏻🍰🎈

Daycare closed due to a Covid outbreak + post-call parenting a toddler = chaos. #surgeonmom

[Meg Mali @doc_mali]

Thank you to @SURGCC and @traumadoctors for a helpful webinar tonight! Zoe was very interested to learn what’s in store for her mama in the next couple of years… or maybe she is also a future trauma surgeon 👩🏽‍⚕️

[Utah General Surgery Residency @UtahGenSurgRes]

Every year, our PGY3s are excused from clinical duties to attend @AmCollSurgeons Clinical Congress! Everyone is grateful for this learning opportunity, and excited about the in-person format this year!

[Meg Mali @doc_mali]

Huge shout out to @siyamali for coming along with Zo. It’s only fitting that she photobombed this pic. Thank you to @ClayBurlew for moderating and for all my @UtahGenSurgRes mentors for your support! @martamccrum @Kronos_76 @RamNirula

[Meg Mali @doc_mali]

I had a fantastic time at #AAST2022 last week. It was the 1st of many AAST meetings I hope to attend. Grateful to @traumadoctors for awarding me an annual meeting scholarship, which allowed me to stay for the whole conference!

2nd year research resident @steph_iantorno presenting her work, Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Interhospital Transfer for Complex Emergency General Surgery, today at #AAST2022! (📸: @leighluppens)

[Meg Mali @doc_mali]

@Kronos_76 @UtahGenSurgRes I was definitely surprised by the dinner celebration!

[Meg Mali @doc_mali]

Very grateful for my wonderful family and friends @UtahGenSurgRes who surprised me with a graduation celebration this weekend after I unceremoniously graduated from my Master of Science in Clinical Investigation Program in June. 1/2

[Meg Mali @doc_mali]

I crammed a lot of learning into one year and somehow did the majority of my spring semester in a postpartum haze with a newborn at home. Shout out to my husband @siyamali for all the support and for planning this wonderful celebration! 2/2
