@RepGregMurphy What an obtuse, tone deaf response to that data. Maybe we should wait until no one living in America can find a primary care doctor, or there’s a 3 day wait to get a life saving procedure when you’re having a heart attack. It’s NOT the selection of candidates that’s the problem…

Congress would rather do ANYTHING but make practicing medicine easier for physicians

[Congressman Greg Murphy, M.D. @RepGregMurphy]

#1 reason for MD shortage is Med schools admitting students who aren’t going to practice. Only 60% of med students today plan on practicing clinical medicine. Med Schools need to focus on admitting students who want take care of patients, not just get their MD.

@RepGregMurphy @GmOrr9000 Said from a medical doctor….not practicing clinical medicine. And if the federal government is paying for everyone’s medical school, my check must be lost in the mail.

Radiation safety and education is a huge barrier for women entering invasive cardiology subspecialties (and probably other specialties). We need to have more data! Great talk by Dr. Skelding #CRT2023

[Yuri Pride @yuripridemd]

People still getting mad at PCI. For me, it's pretty simple.

If no angina, don't stent.

If angina real & lesion low risk of complication, ⬇️threshold to stent.

If angina real and lesion high risk of complication, ⬆️meds.

[Jonathan Reiner @JReinerMD]

Because it’s not enough just to talk about why there aren’t more women in interventional cardiology, you have to actively recruit women. Our program does that. We also have a female program director.

Interventional Cardiology Bros: How many of U have the honor of training not 1, not 2, but 3 ladies in the cath lab on the same day! I am so honored this week @UTSWNews @utswheart @Parkland. Fewer than 10% of ICs are women. We can do better.
