Had a great time today discussing #pics and #longcovid at @AlamedaHealth internal medicine. Important dialogue on how to adapt our practice to underserved patients. And met some superstar chiefs!! (And shoutout @LekshmiMD for all your help!)
Fun conversation with Sammy McGowan - first-year Fellows in PCCM who undertook a systematic review of racial disparities in the ICU while a resident. Looking forward to following his research career. @sccm https://t.co/YQiYnxqM7O
@SouthwestAir Appreciate the apology but I must express my enduring disappointment to have spent over 4hr on hold and paid over $1,000 on last-minute bookings after my family’s two flights were cancelled Saturday and Sunday. We’re longtime SW fans and cardholders and not sure we can continue.
How is ECMO allocated and used in practice? Our review found significant variety in who is categorically excluded from consideration, whether a time-limited trial should be discussed and whether patients/surrogates are given the opportunity to stop it: https://t.co/zfs7yFEMMl 🧵
Must read!! my other half @ari_tolman finally gets to share her work on how incarcerated folks with mental illness are further prosecuted. as a non-sociologist, found this totally understandable and enraging! 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼
I GOT PUBLISHED IN @NEJM y’all! “As a resident, I have seen racist behavior in every clinical rotation. Sometimes I just want to focus on psychopharmacology, but racism calls me and I must answer.” https://t.co/xpPygZJhIy
For no reason in particular, tonight I’m thinking about ophthalmomyiasis, a disease in which fly larvae accumulate underneath the conjunctiva resulting in mucopurulent conjunctivitis...”pink eye,” if you will.
