I’m really behind on updating social media, but loved this lecture on caring for unhoused pts by Dr Victoria McCurry. Here’s a way to improve yr focused history and exam: #SHMConverge2025@SocietyHospMed
.@SocietyHospMed national meeting kicked off this morning with a heartfelt address by outgoing prez Dr Flora Kisuule urging continued efforts to uphold science and our patients, as well as each other, in difficult times. #SHMConverge
Great day yesterday!
➡️Got to meet someone in real life that I’ve followed on social media for a long time- @WrayCharles - great talk on how to write in academic medicine.
➡️Followed by a Girl Scout service day at the Anti-Cruelty Society. Look at the smile on this guy, Buddy:
In dark times, looking forward to seeing colleagues who love #science & #hospitalist medicine at the @SocietyHospMed national meeting this month. Will be teaching clinical updates on #covid management— See you there. 🥼🩺👩🏻⚕️

I just brought my kids to go vote! Proud for them to see their dad’s name on the ballot for US Senator. My parents immigrated to America 50 yrs ago and today I could become the first ever Korean American Senator in history. Thank you everyone for staying in line to vote!
Interesting year for #mycoplasma pneumoniae so far in #peds— Lots of it! And a few cases of resistance requiring fluoroquinolone in our hospital. 👉Send deep NP swab (not anterior nares) #MedTwitter#MedEd

Excellent talk as usual from @AndreMansoor - and new edition of his book Frameworks is out… I use it a lot when coaching PGY2s on how to teach at bedside! 📖 #MedEd
@buckeye_sanjay @ABIMcert@SocietyHospMed@Mud_Fud I find inpatient LKA faster to answer than the prior general LKA but the questions can be more poorly worded (eg two answers could apply, or the answer doesn’t match what actually is standard practice). Slightly annoying but still faster than the general.
Excited to run the next @NU_IntMed resident JC on this study as an example of parsing observational cohort studies... will tease out areas of strength/weakness with this design and understanding and application of results @NUFeinbergMed#MedTwitter https://t.co/D8OlHRMY3W
Excellent overview of acute alcohol related hepatitis by @justinboike ... a reminder that there is no urgency to giving steroids, optimize the patient and rule out infection: #MedEd@midwesthospmed
.@midwesthospmed marches onward with our Updates in Literature talk part 1. @DrBuck383 starts us off with this reminder that GNR bacteremia stinks & that there may be ⬆️ survival if giving beta-lactam 1st (followed by vanc) in bacteremic pts https://t.co/1U5l1j2cqg @NM_IDSteward
