I'm excited to announce that I have been selected as one of the @UtahBusiness#fortyunder40! I'd like to thank my family, those who nominated me, and all of my colleagues who have helped shape my career. This is just the beginning!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the open house celebrating our new West Valley City office.
We appreciate the opportunity to welcome community members, partners, volunteers and supporters into our new space! Thank you for helping us mark this exciting milestone.
I would just like to thank @MOHELA for being my student aid servicer - every single time I have called in, their representatives have been the utmost kindest and insanely knowledgeable people I could have hoped for. Just got off of the phone with them and wanted to express this.
@ZSiudak@DrDiGiorgio@yuvalpatelMD We need to have legislation increase the number of residency positions (and, in relation, medical school seats). I know there is a lot more work than just saying that, mind you.
@jl35wilsonMD@SalaryDr There are many of us who have to take non-linear paths for a variety of reasons who don't want to be forced out of certain pathways.
@realdocspeaks@SeivwrightTrudy@SalaryDr I do agree with this, too! I hope as things evolve that we can find some answers to these stressor. My personal goal is to help fight for change.
@SalaryDr I'm career pivoting from healthcare administration to become a physician. People are telling me I'm making a financial mistake, and I reply, "If I was doing it for the money, I'd stay in business". I definitely understand people running from this profession, but I feel the call!
Surprised and elated to have just grabbed this from the mail! Thank you for the warm welcome, @ACLMinfo ! I look forward to being part of the community and contributing in this next chapter of my career. #MedTwitter#law
I’m “just” a DO.
In some circles, that’s still a slur.
At certain Philly academic centers, you feel it.
In residencies that quietly exclude us, you see it.
But here’s the truth nobody tells you:
The system didn’t make me.
It tried to break me.
@Rick_Pescatore I’m allopathic, trained at an allopathic residency and the attending who was my personal role model as a physician is a DO.
Post-nominal letters go only so far.
You can’t hold down high quality people.
@generalorthomd Enter “Ortho UrgentCare.” We opened ours 10+ yrs ago. Massive savings to our community/patients w/specialist on-site care.
UC’s, if managed properly, can be excellent.
An urgent care referred a carpenter with a splinter in his hand to me. It was removed with tweezers.
Referred a laceration to the ED for sutures.
Referred wrist fractures to the ED for splinting.
These places offer very little value to many patients.
@Rick_Pescatore It has taken me a lot longer to get my career going because of this exact sentiment. I've been to 99% of my kids' dances and sports... every day that goes by as I approach 40 I get more grateful I've delayed my training for them.
