To be a woman in medicine is to break barriers, challenge norms, & redefine possibility—every patient, every procedure, every day. We are not just part of history; we are shaping the future. Happy National Women Physicians day to all those fellow amazing lady docs out there. ❤️

[Michael Galvez, MD @MichaelGalvezMD]

Premed, Medical Students, Residents who are Latino/a, Black, minorities, immigrants, LGBTQ, underserved in any way.. we see you this week. We need YOU in medicine to take care of all patient populations. You’re gonna hear from the media that the government, businesses, and many others simply don’t care about you. Forget them. You are worthy, deserving, hard-working, intelligent, and NEEDED. Our U.S. healthcare system it is a DISASTER because it was built by the privileged. Stay positive, keep your wellness in mind, maintain your mental health, and work hard to push forward. You have the lived experience, cultural empathy, emotional intelligence, and grit to be some of the best doctors in the United States. Focus and move forward. Trajectory UP! They not like us.

@ibethpene Two options after a TD: go for the extra point (7 pts total) or do a 2-pt conversion (8 pts total)

It’s a matter of whether you want to take a gamble — do you take the extra point and tie the game, but then have to play in OT? Or do you gamble for 2 pts and possibly win?

On a day for the history books, @TheAmandaGorman delivered a poem that more than met the moment. Young people like her are proof that "there is always light, if only we're brave enough to see it; if only we're brave enough to be it."

I’m celebrating for the kids at the border.
For the women he harassed.

I’m celebrating the 1st woman -Black, child of immigrants- VP.
I’m celebrating decency.
I’m celebrating America! 🇺🇸

Those who are denying that there is an issue are the issue. There has always been an issue and it takes drastic measures to cause drastic changes. I just wish it hadn't taken this many innocent lives lost for people to finally realize the scope of the corruption and racism.

If I have to write one more discussion post and then respond to two of my peers in three or more sentences, I’m going to lose it
