While other states are stripping away people’s rights, we’re taking action to defend fundamental freedoms. 

If you live in a state restricting your freedom to authentically live your life and make decisions for your own body, I have three words for you: come to Michigan!

In 2011, the ACGME limited consecutive work hours to 16 at a time. There was a 63% reduced risk in reported medical errors resulting in patient death.

The ACGME has since reversed this rule.

Our friend & former co-resident Dr. Bolek Payan is MISSING. Last seen on 12/22 leaving Henry Ford #Hospital in Jackson, MI😭

His vehicle was found at his residence, but he had no contact with his employer, family or friends. Keep his family in prayers🙏#Medtwitter #Cardiotwitter

“Implementation of the proposed regulations would ultimately protect health for all people and strengthen parity in both gender-affirming and routine care.” @DStroumsa outlining the imperative to protect gender-affirming care. https://t.co/KPGGBklH76

Mask MANDATES are the only thing that will get the majority of the population masking again. We are not a “do the right thing of your own accord” type of society.

Pediatricians everywhere should be concerned about the #ICWA. Why?

Native child health is tied to culture, kinship & language - all can suffer when Native kids are systemically removed from community w/o Tribal input.

Ex) Indigenous youth suicide rates⬆️with language loss.

Take home: letters from mental health professionals do not make gender affirming hormones safer or improve mental health! and they have negative consequences.

We have a new pub out! What do trans people have to say about "letters" ? short thread https://t.co/qp8cStTSnf @justinepwu @mariammaksut @postrafelite @GnendyIndig

[Daphna Stroumsa, MD @DStroumsa]

3. The letter requirement negatively impacs the patient-provider relationship, and so is actually harmful. People end up self-censoring, or perform a version of transness their provider expect. The process erodes trust in care professionals, and worsens mental health!
