@SophiaAntimis Be eager and ready to learn. Practice reading EKGs whenever you get the chance. Go to your patients procedures when possible - you will understand so much more about the disease process, treatment, and plan this way.

As I wrap up my 5th year of #primarycare practice, I can't help but reflect on the TEN "sparks" trainees may miss out on during residency that make this work so rewarding.

A 🧵of #gratitude...

@PaulNWilliamz I thought the same thing, along with "no wonder he didn't make it"!!

[Jennifer Suriano MD, MPH, FACP @jsurianomd]

@GavinPrestonMD Good for you! So necessary to take care of ourselves. Our work is draining.

@FedExHelp I received email that package was delivered. Couldn't find it by my front door or mailbox. Finally found it in the gravel next to my driveway. Please do better @FedEx

#UncleBob - why I love Internal Medicine so much. Internal Medicine requires a love of being a diagnostic detective and loving the patients we care for - i.e. a marriage of intellect and emotional IQ.

@EricLast3 Ugh. So frustrating! I had*peer to peer" this past week. They called 15 min late. I said I had been waiting for 15 min, they said "that's fine, no worries!" 🤔 Always say they don't have info, but obviously did because denied

@KidsDrDave I see that (P) on patient or MA entered questionnaires that have not been "filed" yet. Is the MA entering then differently or not closing the vitals section somehow?

@eeyanmiller Always do what's right for the patient... Not just in medical decision making, but in making the phone call, reaching out to the specialist, etc

#TipsForNewDocs
You are now a physician, a member of an ancient and honorable profession.
You are not a "provider."
That term was created by the government and insurance companies to decrease your power in the doctor-patient relationship.
Accept no denigration.

@kidney_boy So much! 🙈

@mattheinzmd Couldn't agree more Matt!

@AnnaKendrick47 I often recommend Mega Foods Blood Builder to my patients.

[Jennifer Suriano MD, MPH, FACP @jsurianomd]

@PaulNWilliamz We like this one:
28-ounce can whole San Marzano tomatoes - crushed with your hands
2-4 tbsp (30-60 ml) olive oil
1 tsp (4g) sugar
2 tsp dried oregano

Or Rao's pizza sauce is pretty good if you want something quick
