More information is not inherently bad, but the quality of information matters.

More good information = good outcomes
Vague/bad information = unhelpful or even bad outcomes

[Vijay Pande @vijaypande]

The common view that "more information is bad" in medical practice is one of the biggest tells that there's something fundamentally wrong and needs to be fixed

The Mormons doing medical school on Diet Coke alone.

[CoffeeBlackMD @CoffeeBlackMD]

Who else did medical school on nicotine and caffeine alone? Just thugged it out.

Just me?

🚨 Darryn Peterson is the clear #1 overall pick

6’6@ guard, elite scorer, 20+ PPG as a Kansas freshman. Devin Booker-level shot creation, three level game, and physicality. Highest upside in the draft by far.

Franchise cornerstone. Don’t overthink it.

Peterson #1. Lock it in.

[Jake McCleary @jakemmccleary]

Darryn Peterson is the best player in the draft and should 100% go #1!

@TPP_MD @muscleforlife In a six week family medicine rotation, my attending offered referral to a in-house dietitian/nutritionist at no extra cost to his patients, to every patient with chronic/metabolic disease. Only one patient in the entire six weeks even accepted a referral.

Baseball is meant to be watched in person

The best part of March Madness is it’s distracting me from Match Day tommorow.

There’s literally no reason to hire a large private equity backed home service company.

Homeowners are starting to realize this.

A small family owned company can do everything they do.

We can do it better and we can do it for a better price.

By all means, encourage your patient to declare that “C.S. Lewis is overrated.”
