Important take home points from @rayyalamd at #SPR2023
- Imposter thoughts are normal
- Acknowledge your thoughts and challenge your doubts
- build a network of trusted friends and mentors to share with
- fix the culture, not the person

I dunno. I'm starting to feel like this is all pretty well precedented by now.

[Krista Birkemeier @RadMomMD]

@RammahaSahar Aww thanks. I have friends who are ER docs. Their compassion amazes me!

[Krista Birkemeier @RadMomMD]

@kimcoffmanmd If I have any regret about my younger years as a doctor it is that I handled death as part of the job instead of a transition for the family. If I could go back in time for anything I would pray with the families of patients who died. Few regrets. That’s one of them.

[Krista Birkemeier @RadMomMD]

Love it! For better or worse you will hear less of that with age!

Every time I hear from a patient “Where’s the REAL DOCTOR?” #medtwitter

All flu vaccine formulations (including nasal spray) will be quadrivalent this year. My 4 yr old will be happy! Also, a reminder that AAP flu recommendations allow for coadministration with COVID-19 vaccine https://t.co/ILTYditAhT

@dr_c_cable I think it’s a framing issue: consumerism in healthcare is patient + focus on the individual in the context of that individual and their family (holistic). We don’t do the latter so well…yet.
