Medical training is just saying “gotta get through this week” for a couple hundred weeks

[K, MD @psych_biscuits]

This video is really long and on Tik Tok, but he does an EXCELLENT job of explaining this issue, without stepping on toes or kissing up. He is very respectful about it, I implore everyone to watch it. This is a small section, but the entirety is very well done.

Gorillaz x Bad Bunny collab is something I didn’t know I needed but definitely did need😌

Today is the first day of Resident Appreciation Week!

Now, I know you’re all excited for “Thank A Resident Day” on February 24, but let’s start the week with a question:

How much are resident physicians worth?

[Laura Vater, MD, MPH @doclauravater]

Being awake for 24 hours is the equivalent of having a blood alcohol content of 0.10%. This is higher than the legal limit for driving.

If doctors aren’t fit to use their driver's license after 24 hours awake, should they be asked to use their medical license?

Fact

DON’T EVER go to a chiropractor. DO go to physical therapy!!

[𝕧𝕒𝕟𝕖𝕤𝕤𝕒𝕟𝕔𝕙𝕖𝕫, MD @VanessaEsss]

Not me experiencing traumatic things as a doctor making $6 an hour this month

[Naan Derthaal, DO, FAAOS @NaanDerthaal]

Yet another reminder, DO NOT EVER LET A CHIROPRACTOR CRACK YOUR DAMN NECK!!!

[𝕧𝕒𝕟𝕖𝕤𝕤𝕒𝕟𝕔𝕙𝕖𝕫, MD @VanessaEsss]

If I had a dollar for every time a patient or their family member said “you’re ACTUALLY and REAL doctor??” or “wow how young are you??” I could pay off my student loans by now…

[No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen @NoLieWithBTC]

This new commercial from Mothers Against Greg Abbott is one of the best political ads I’ve ever seen.

[𝕧𝕒𝕟𝕖𝕤𝕤𝕒𝕟𝕔𝕙𝕖𝕫, MD @VanessaEsss]

Got very busy seeing all my patients today so I wasn’t able to eat :( I survived on only my morning iced coffee. Is this what it’s like to be a millennial doctor?🤔

[Brendon Martin, MD @BrendonMD]

Residency has been full of challenges and extreme imposter syndrome these past few weeks BUT I’m reassured in my belonging with every patient fist bump, laugh, or positive outcome that I’ve been a part of. So thankful to be here and excited for the future growth! #FMRevolution

[Very General Orthopaedist @generalorthomd]

Chiropractors are dangerous and have no business treating children.

[Dr. Bryan Leyva @DrBryanLeyva]

Pediatrician here. I want people to know that death by firearm is not rare in kids. In fact, it has been the #1 cause death in this age group since 2020. In 2020 alone, 4300 children died from firearms. That’s equivalent to one Boeing 747 plane crash every month for 9 months.

[Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke]

The moment to stop Uvalde was right after Sandy Hook. After Santa Fe High. After El Paso.

Instead, Abbott made it easier to carry guns in public.

The moment to stop the next slaughter is right now.

[Josh Trebach, MD @jtrebach]

there's a whole class of substances in toxicology called "abortifacients" which cause abortions. they can be extremely dangerous.

if Roe v Wade is overturned, abortions won't stop happening--they just stop happening legally. People will have unsafe abortions and people will die.

[Zed Zha, MD, FAAFP @DrZedZha]

As an immigrant who serves immigrants in primary care,I witness disproportionally high rate of unintended pregnancies.And no,it’s not a “cultural thing”.It’s inequity.Access to family planning/reproductive health needs to be expanded,not shrunken.#RoeVWade #abortionrights
