Incredible to work with an interdisciplinary academic team. Wonderful outcome with this study! In my day-to-day practice, I try to build a clinical team around patients to help with more than just pain as #endometriosis is so much more than that! Great leadership @LeesaVanniekerk

You asked. Here's the answer.
The first ever hands-on GYN ultrasound course focused on #endometriosis & other GYN problems - fibroids, adenomyosis, ovarian masses, sonohysterograpy, & more!
For sonographers, OBGYNs, MIGS, radiologists!

Too often, diseases like endometriosis are silent diseases — existing only in a woman or girl’s head. Today, I announced on behalf of @markhollandlib more than $1.6M to increase public and health care provider awareness. The @TheEndoNetwork and @SOGCorg will now begin the work
@MathewLeonardi Interesting discussion. With non-invasive imaging it is possible to track the natural evolution of disease and maybe even develop evidence-based recommendations for surveillance with better quality data. Would also consider other states with hormonal fluctuations (eg.pregnancy)!
Let’s talk about Black physicians (5% of all physicians). We have statistically lower MCAT and Step scores. However, Black physicians taking care of Black patients decreases mortality. If we let less Black applicants into medical school, more patients will die.
Period.
Our Black community has always known it. Now statistics confirm it.
