The only Malaysian presenting my poster here in Bangkok at the Asian Federation of Osteoporosis Societies Congress. Hope for the best!

If you are a doctor that sees elderly patients (ie: all doctors except maybe paediatricians), you need to know how to detect and treat osteoporosis

The Malaysian Osteoporosis Society Annual Scientific Meeting is a great opportunity to do this. Sign up today

Before I became an endocrinologist, aside from when I did orthopaedics as a houseman, I largely ignored bones. They were just there, and I really took them for granted. Here are 3 of my main reasons why I now advocate for osteoporosis treatment 🧵���

@CybertronVGC It was a joy to watch you on stream. Come back again next year!

Recruited a patient into a clinical trial, and it feels incredibly weird to be blinded

Me: If you get the drug, you may experience xxx effect
Participant: Ok
Me: But if you get the placebo, I guess you may also get xxx due to the placebo effect
P:
Me: So… here’s the drug, lmk!

@mollyhannahm This is excellent Molly

@johnhollinger That’s excellent, John

Amazing how everyone now seems to have an opinion on how medical specialists shd be trained. Let's give the fraternity itself together with the Minister of Health @DrDzul the time & space to sort out the issue; focusing squarely on 🇲🇾's health needs.
Let it not be a turf war.

Simplistic!
Devoid of historical context!
Parallel Pathway (PP) pre-1973, preceded Masters!
Non-Surgical PP programs consolidated since 2014.
No hassle with NSR
Hoo-ha on entire PP is spillover from 2-3 Surgical programs-MMC self inflicted!
Don’t conflate issues
Stop gaslighting!

@jeskeets Way to go, Skeets!

I’m not sure I’ll ever be much of an academic, but I took a step forward towards something today. Grateful to my supervisors and family who supported me https://t.co/uewm2OtbQy

@SyedSaddiq YB, you might want to stop liking posts labeled BoikotPRN. Unless it’s what you really want, in which case, I’m disappointed

@ezmanshariff @NationalHeart Well done!
