Chilling story about my friend, former head & neck fellow, & former @NCAA D-1 wrestling champ @Cornell, Dr. David Hirsch.
“This virus? It magnified for me my understanding of how patients are vulnerable. I was vulnerable, and I was scared.” https://t.co/PcmDfNYH8T
I’m halting elective surgeries and dental services that require the use of medical protective equipment.
We need to preserve that equipment for our health care workers as they work on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic.

A guide to being a female surgeon:
Be good but not too good lest men get intimidated
Be nice but not too nice or people will think you’re flirting with them or soft
Be tough but not too tough or you’re a bitch
Take charge but do it nicely
