Late but deserved congrats to @SchulichMedDent Class of ‘25 for bringing home the Tachy Cup. Amazing shows by every class!!! @JohnYooMD and Dr. Venance impressions were IT for me 😊

Trauma Family Feud @TACTraumaCanada !! Big win for Family East, but the West side wants a rematch in 2026!! #TAC2025

[Rob Leeper @rob_leeper]

Love the casting by President Rao @TACTraumaCanada, but it feels like a weird way to tell me he’s kicking me off the board next year 😬🫣🫰

@ross_prager @J_Landau @NephroP @ArgaizR @fluidloading @fluidresponsive @PulmCrit @pulmtoilet @First10EM @VancouverPOCUS @PeachtreePOCUS @MaizeandLube @avkwong @iceman_ex I’ll see the evidence based argument from @J_Landau and raise you the following meme: Surgery patients actually ARE just going through a phase. The “Fluid Seeking Phase” is real, and it’s spectacularly important to give that volume over first 12-24 hours… then start the lasix:)

@elliotthaut @NoContextHumans @DctrJByrne @SchellenbergMD @evanwongMDCM @kinabamd @tzakrison The only really famous person in this list is Morgan. The rest of us just try to appear in photographs with her and tell other people that we know her.

Incredible Harvey Club dinner, hosting a lifelong mentor of mine, Dr. Bill Wall, speaking about his mentor, Sir Roy Calne, a founding father of transplantation. Special stuff.

[Rob Leeper @rob_leeper]

Exciting to hear visiting prof Morgan Schellenberg talk about trauma verification @LHSCCanada. Tough mission, but could be most positive change in trauma care in our region that I can remember 🤞

Tourniquets save lives….even manikin lives! Great seeing some #stopthebleed in real life at this AM’s in situ trauma sim @LHSCCanada.

Great fun being a “sheep in wolf’s clothing” presenting at a vascular surgery panel on SMA syndrome. Great group of speakers and a neat topic. #ACSCC2024 @AmCollSurgeons

@elliotthaut @AmCollSurgeons @MarcieFeinman @SFMOMA The fact that this comes from Dr. Haut senior makes it even more cool! Never got to meet him, but the photo in Elliott’s office and all the stories made it clear that Elliott got a lot more than ties handed down from his pops ☺️

Mandatory Elliott selfie! Love seeing my old boss. Didn’t love when he reminded me it’s been 10 years since I was his fellow 😬 @elliotthaut @AmCollSurgeons @MarcieFeinman

[Rob Leeper @rob_leeper]

@elliotthaut @AmCollSurgeons @MarcieFeinman Still so much to learn. For example, snazzy ties.

[Rob Leeper @rob_leeper]

@AmCollSurgeons In my heart, yes. In my joints, no 😜

General Surgery Review Course…took it here w all the other PGY5’s in 2011 but the audience in 2024 seems to be all mid/late career surgeons…including this one 😖#ACSCC24 @AmCollSurgeons

@cutitoutPODCAS1 @SchulichMedDent @western_gensurg @kootenaysdoc @Seanpcleary Agree with @Seanpcleary that most of my 90s/2000s T’s aren’t fit to be worn anymore. Still have a few nice ones from @Queens_Football that fit my kids, though.

[Rob Leeper @rob_leeper]

A cool topic, a great article, and a tricky one to comment on! Hope we did the paper justice. Will try to keep my head down for flying 🍅 from folks on either side of the great REBOA debate!

@J_Landau @LHSCCanada I trully enjoyed my Palm Treo during medical school. @J_Landau, what are the major updates and bug fixes in the current generation of Treo devices?
