@DrSarahAxelrath There are few places as lovely as Chicago in the springtime! Too bad about the other 11 months of the year...

@sarapod07 That's just threads all the time.

I met an American hero who you've probably never heard of, but whose legacy will soon be widespread.

Did you know that the first paramedics in America were a group of Black men who revolutionized how we deliver healthcare in this country?

@tweetsbenedict @clarabellum I was constantly adjusting my schedule for what seemed most fulfilling. That hasn't changed, though hopefully my understanding of what is fulfilling is a bit better now.

@saltylungs So organized.

[Emily Lu @dremilylu]

@tweetsbenedict @clarabellum My parents did this and I think it worked, despite us being on the same math team. Thanks for the trip down memory lane...

@StefanKertesz @MaxJordan_N @stephenwpatrick The content of this tweet includes at least 2 pretty big shared truths not to mention the implied shared language to understand the other person also holds these truths.

But still, I think that makes the conversation more, not less, precious because of it.

Pretty remarkable that America temporarily constructed a safety net during Covid — including major health care coverage, food benefits, anti poverty funding for families & kids, etc — and then just systematically and slowly demolished it

@Surgeon_General @DGlaucomflecken Find out one thing about your patient that isn't clearly "medical."

It always ends up either being important to their health anyways. Or brings life and humanity.

@kgrumbach This is what friends are for! Also if I wrote such a great article, I would thread it too.

[Emily Lu @dremilylu]

Lots of good thoughts here but here's the headline: direct primary care for all. #FMRevolution let's make it happen.

[Kevin Grumbach @kgrumbach]

How do we put #FMRevolution into action? The state of primary care is precarious. Tinkering will not save it from collapsing. We need revolutionary deeds. My @AnnFamMed article out today calls for 3 decisive actions 🧵https://t.co/hxolMrw3D7

This is true regardless of what startup or other org your PCP works for.
