The women physicians around me continue to uplift me. S/o to @noellesinex and @areeba_kara who encouraged me to apply, the many @IUIntMed docs I get to work with, and the many I met at #sgim23 that offered support, including my 1:1 mentor
@DheepaSekarMD. Feeling truly blest 🫶
It was not at all lost on me how good it felt being in a room full of people with that lens. Careerism produces a particular kind of sociality, but IME people who aspire to heal trauma are working on themselves. The product *can* be distinctly open communication and gentleness.
My favorite thing at #SGIM23 was the trauma interest group. We discussed how IPV is one of the only ways that medicine feels remotely responsible for engaging trauma. But trauma is a strong analytic and even physiologic basis for understanding a lot about health/society. 1/2
Congrats Dr. Lily Cervantes for the @SocietyGIM#SGIM23 Calkins Advocacy Award!

Grateful for @AKaletMD’s unwavering support through the all good and bad 🤗
She knew me when I was just a resident. I would barge into her office with all my ideas and feel so heard 🙏🏾 #SGIM23
Congratulations, @SusanHingle !
Your lessons of mentorship, keeping loved ones close, and living a life of gratitude are definitely the secret sauce!

@CPSolvers and @rabihmgeha’s plenary at #SGIM23 centered on a meaningful tribute to @Rafameed, which was aptly summarized by Dr. Manesh that they wanted to “carry out passions on our sleeves and let it touch as many people as possible.” Grateful for this community they foster
Last day of #SGIM23 plenary with @CPSolvers incredibly inspiring and moving talk about finding how in medicine and life after loss. A topic that hits home to many of us.
TY for the vulnerability and opening up this space in medicine
The honesty, passion and sincerity of this talk moved everyone in the room. The entire meeting, including presidential address and the reunions with old friends and new relationships formed have lit up our hearts after so many years in exile. #SGIM23
