Equal parts cardiology and snarky remarks. Melbourne Heart Care, Victorian Heart Hospital. My thoughts, possibly not even representative of what I really think.

@NickRRMtech @cate__stevens How'd it finish??

[David Adam @drdadam]

The irony here is the consult with one of our cardiologists would have been less expensive for her than the CT, and vastly more informative than receiving the false reassurance of a calcium score that I can practically guarantee was 0.

Ahh the joys of Google reviews! Frustrating when you get roasted for failing to overservice a 36 year old woman. And yet we are the ones only interested in profits?

So good boys, and yet so alarming...

Richly deserved honour, and a beautiful tribute to a fine man. He is still greatly missed by his former colleagues. Professionally he was renowned for being both highly skilled and also possessing a kind and thoughtful manner. Not that common a combination!

@cate__stevens Maybe you were just buying juvenile drinks?

@MelbourneEPdoc @TicketsAid While you know it all too well, you need to calm down. Just shake it off.

@cate__stevens Check-in is so slow at that hotel!

@timrosen35 There's now 2 reasons to like you mate - not only are you a Saints supporter you also just won me some $$.
Owe you a beer, or if you ever need a heart specialist...

[David Adam @drdadam]

@MelbourneEPdoc Great form on the kicking there!

[David Adam @drdadam]

@MelbourneEPdoc My sense is we lag behind the corporate world significantly here. My yr 12 daughter is currently trying to decide between medicine and engineering and I can't say I'm unhappy she is leaning more towards the latter.

And here's the photo. (To be clear, the patient fainted, not me...)

I fainted yesterday....
Amazing what the human body can tolerate (until it doesn't)

[David Adam @drdadam]

@GPswampwarrior Brilliant thread. Sadly, you have nailed it every step of the way.

[David Adam @drdadam]

@cate__stevens There is a lot to unpack there for a morning. Is the message that you should buy someone else a coffee?

[David Adam @drdadam]

@EsanumIT Only if you promise to send me a copy of the article (in Italian)

I now realise wearing a bikini is potentially unprofessional conduct but what about an Eeyore onesie? Asking for a friend (apologies to my daughters whose lives are apparently no longer worth living). #MedBikini

@samsaid75 @jeffrey_vinocur Thanks. Lead was 10 years old. Also nothing in the op report which was a little surprising.

Dear Cardiac Surgeons,
When you dislodge the atrial lead during the operation, clipping it back on to the atrium (and clipping over the old site), does not really fix the problem.

@anneelizpowell @InsidOutAnatomy @MonashUni @Monash_FMNHS @MonashBDI Geez Anne, you were paying closer attention than I thought!
