It happened! I saw an ophthalmologist in the hospital on a Saturday afternoon seeing a consult! I did have to help her figure out how to find the right encounter for her documentation, but she was there! @DGlaucomflecken

@DGlaucomflecken @AnthemBCBS @UHC @Cigna @Aetna I have printed out uptodate articles on hyperaldo when my dosing of eplerenone was denied for being “too high.” It was as passive aggressive as I could have been while also getting the Med approved

I wish there was a way to feel pain instead of your child feeling it….

@TWhittier_RUSH Renal is always my starting word

@Caulimovirus I just interrupt them back. The patient appreciates completing our conversation, I do try to involve said interrupting specialist and the look of shock of being interrupted is just a bonus

I have the most amazing husband! He’s an engineer and he has been watching YouTube videos about nephrology and renal physiology so he can understand what I do and discuss it with me 😍😍
