waiting 6 months for my Pennsylvania CRNP license w/ no updates. I’ve called weekly w/ endless hold times & no responses. When they do answer there’s total lack of communication & they repeat “I’ll send a message to so & so” Months later no license, we are in a provider shortag
e how can anyone Practice if theState of Pennsylvania will not approve the license in a timely manner?! Not sure the shortage will get solved if healthcare workers looking to work in the state can’t even get a license in less than HALF a YEAR. @JoshShapiroPA @PennsylvaniaGov
An underrated 1 min health tip:
When you feel gratitude and warmth for someone- tell them. Gratitude makes them feel better but it also gives you a nervous system shift.
It is one of those rare things where it’s healthy for both parties involved.
It’s takes 1 minute or less.
When I see a new #CHD patient & talk to the family about the dx, see the fear in their eyes, I say to them "your child can be anything they want to be...they can be a gold medalist in the Olympics." Thanks @shaunwhite for providing that hope and inspiration #CHDAwarenessWeek

Monday we had the first Fontan Liver clinic at the Digestive Health Center. Thank you everyone who helped and hopefully will grow fast. As usual challenging cases. One young patient with HCC will initiate the journey towards a heart liver transplant🙏
