@quinn_ruee @DrigoMunoz We definitely need to dismantle pseudohierarchy between specialities & change the rhetoric when it comes to primary care.

My 1st #NationalWomenPhysiciansDay as a MD. Many doubted my journey from one male dominated field to another, including myself. Yet here I am.

I am honoured to stand next to so many incredible women who have pushed the envelope to change the face of medicine.

Do you ever feel like you have too many tabs open... but in here 🧠?

@mahad_minhas I WISH !!! Congrats 🎉

I love being told that I have an irrational fear of a deadly virus by people who are afraid of immigrants, LGBTQ, brown & black people, working women, windmills, vaccines, electric cars, voting by mail, universal health care, environmental protections, higher wages & face masks.

As we make our way toward Ω (omega)- I hope for the continued protection of people who received the vaccine & the safety of people who don't have access to or who aren't yet eligible for the vaccine

Everyone else -good luck- as it seems that is what you are relying on

The Greek alphabet is meant to be associated with math & my childhood. Not variants 😫.

With respect - #ɢᴇᴛᴠᴀᴄᴄɪɴᴀᴛᴇᴅ

I find myself in rooms with people who still insist COVID isn't real while any mention of the vaccine elicits an almost visceral reaction... As we make our way through the Greek alphabet of variants I hope the vaccine continues to help those who sought it out. God help us all.

[xtna @xtna_md]

@castleattire Each vaccine is meant to help with each disease. Getting just one isn't going to cover you for everything. Check with your doctor - there are vaccine catch up schedules.

[xtna @xtna_md]

Children getting vaccinated - with multiple shots, even those who cry & need mom to hold their hand - make less of a scene than some adults dealing with 1.

I said what I said.

@NaviKaurMD Love the socks!!!

@sailingkateMD 🤣🤣

It's a strange time to be a doctor - the dichotomy between awesome scientific discovery & hope with selfishness & misinformation is staggering.

There's so much more to be thankful for in my little bubble of the universe & for that I am so very grateful.

No IG or FB? Time to revisit a more reliable SoMe source 😅

[xtna @xtna_md]

So "assaulting a business" (whatever that means) IS MORE PROTECTED THAN actually violating & assaulting women...?

[xtna @xtna_md]

Apparently protecting "the right" to spread a virus that has already killed over 650 000 Americans in 1.5 years >>>>>>> a woman's right to her own bodily autonomy.

Shame on you @GregAbbott_TX

The reasons for them can be extremely complicated, time sensitive & life threatening which is why they remain a part of reproductive health as a whole.

As a medically driven & managed process - it must stay between the pregnant person & their doctor - that's it.

Simple.

An abortion "with reason/explanation" - ectopic, rape, incest, fetal abnormalities, spontaneous aka miscarriage - or an abortion with "no ''''good'''' reason" - is still an abortion.

Abortions happen.
