10-year-old during checkup: 🙋‍♂️ I have a question. Why are there so many things on the screen? How do you know where to click?

Me: 🤣

10-yo: But why don't they just put only what you need to see on the screen?

…

Me: 🤯

BREAKING: A Wyoming judge has issued a temporary restraining order against the state's total abortion ban.

The state's much-publicized medication abortion ban doesn't go into effect until this summer, so abortion service should be able to resume immediately.

I looked up my “peer” who denied an indicated surgery.

My “peer” hasn’t been allowed to do surgery for 10 years because he put a hip replacement in backwards, but he gets to overrule my decisions.

This is insane.

hi, the new laws for ADHD & pain meds might sound “good” when it comes to harmful mental health prescription start- ups with dangerous prescribing habits; however, that is not the only people/businesses they will impact. 🧵

@garicgymro Maybe he was irritated because he was pulled to cover the front even though he's a phlebotomist, suggesting they were short staffed?

Want to Fix #PublicHealth? Stop Thinking Like a Doctor.

The task is not to help individuals accommodate oppressive social or labor contexts. It is instead to use power of govt to change conditions that constrain people’s freedom.

People ask how we can change things. We need more stories about @UHC and others. We need names. Concrete examples. We need depositions that expose evil practices and we need to make it public. Please tell your story at the link below.

This is the selling point of private equity. We have the cash to grow your practice and give you more negotiating power with insurance companies, which is better for doctors and patients. Everybody wins, right?

[Dr. Glaucomflecken @DGlaucomflecken]

This is great but I didn’t reveal anything. I just summarized the US health insurance business model.

CNN must be a tricky place for nuance, but as someone with intimate knowledge of MD suicide, I do think we need to be exceedingly careful how we talk about blame, and instead use burnout itself as an opportunity to shift consciousness from individual to structural accountability

So it turns out CRYPTIC CROSSWORDS of all things are like the Suboxone to my Twitter addiction???

Apparently in my brain homunculus the part that needs to doomscroll at 3am is right next to a weird lil guy just going "abnormal sweet, normal fruit (11) - watermelons!" Who knew 🤷🏻‍♀️

[Artie Vierkant @avierkant]

Moderna said they’d make it free through a patient assistance program, which is very different from saying they won’t raise the price. This is a classic pharma industry move to look more beneficent than they are, and we’d best not take victory laps over it
