@adityam2000 @rbarbosa91 Try 2-0 ethibond - permanent with tons of strength but I’ve very very rarely had a knot complaint

@clavelluro @SPuro88 @jfunkmd @justindubinmd @AshleyGWinter @kjdelay1 @frosso55 @melina_mccarty "Why do you need to fix your ED? You're old - just get another hobby" - said to one of my now happier IPP patients

[Travis Pagliara, MD @tpagman]

@kjdelay1 Between work and family it's easy to forget self - try to remember!

[Travis Pagliara, MD @tpagman]

@kjdelay1 For me, it's a question of, am I physically "busy" with a lot to do or am I mentally "busy" with a lot to think about. I can handle the former, but the latter is taxing.

[Travis Pagliara, MD @tpagman]

@kjdelay1 @SPuro88 Just curious - are you pushing yourself to utilize that OR time that late bc it's an rvu production model or is the hospital pushing you, or are you doing it out of guilt for giving access to patients.

[Travis Pagliara, MD @tpagman]

@kjdelay1 Curious what next available looks like at your system and for any of your followers - ours is about 3 months aside from constantly overbook triaging in urgent cancer related visits.

@sanjaybkulkarni Beautiful! Hope to visit again for a 10 year anniversary and learn from the best, my list time was in 2015 as a resident, and I learned so much in just a week.

[Travis Pagliara, MD @tpagman]

@alextatem Once again the wonder drug does it all! Im just gonna start 2.5mg a day at 40 for preventative health care

[Travis Pagliara, MD @tpagman]

@SPuro88 Random idea - give her a gift card to rent the runway so she can just order clothes specific to her size and style whenever she needs them

[Matthew Ziegelmann @mjziegelmann]

Great webinar led by @raevti - a must listen for any senior residents or fellows. If you are a member of @SMSNA_ORG you can check it out on demand at any time. If you’re not a member - please join! It’s free for residents/fellows and there is a wealth of resources

[Travis Pagliara, MD @tpagman]

@gmorrissonmd @JnsHerrmann @kjdelay1 Of course, love you more Griff - no negative tones implied, all humor.

[Travis Pagliara, MD @tpagman]

@kjdelay1 @gmorrissonmd @JnsHerrmann Fair but it's how one guy said it to me once and it's burned in my brain .. "you wanna filet my penis in open 'just to explore'????"

[Travis Pagliara, MD @tpagman]

@gmorrissonmd @JnsHerrmann @kjdelay1 Oral boards writers can please come try to convince a guy in the ER you need to filet his penis open on history and exam alone

[Travis Pagliara, MD @tpagman]

@JnsHerrmann @kjdelay1 Same here - we've made it a policy at our trauma center. I've seen an US miss a 180 degree b/l corporal tear.... Somehow. Ventral is the way!

[Travis Pagliara, MD @tpagman]

@PopiolekMarcin Saw this with an SP Tube once... Crazy

[Travis Pagliara, MD @tpagman]

@alextatem I hear you and raise you - the testopel patient who has to go back to cypionate because the trocars are back ordered for months

Martin Gross and his team deserve serious kudos for this! Their article is INCREDIBLY important for prosthetic training.

KEY POINT: Resident training DOES add time to cases (~17 minutes) but DOES NOT increase complications.

The more surgeons we train, the more men we can treat!

[Travis Pagliara, MD @tpagman]

@alextatem So. Excited.

[Travis Pagliara, MD @tpagman]

@ltw1996 @AshleyGWinter Sorry I meant to @AshleyGWinter 's point

[Travis Pagliara, MD @tpagman]

@ltw1996 @AshleyGWinter This is VERY IMPORTANT to spread the word about!! Guys are terrified it's going to be super painful, and if we can alleviate that worry it will only help the cause!
