Grateful for working with @Rosemary_MedEd and @AKBradyMD on this paper! My transformation from chemist to hopeful internist is now complete. Excited to meet future colleagues on the interview trail - say "hypoxemia" and watch my eyes sparkle! #Match2022

It's simple: where you live shouldn't dictate the kind of health care you can get and no one—not politicians, neighbors, or complete strangers—should be able to intrude on your health care decisions.
RT if you agree.

The legacy of mistreatment of minorities by medicine has led to a mistrust of Drs. You can help: introduce yourself to EVERYONE in the room, sit down when taking a history, call all adults ‘Mr.’ or ‘Ms.’
Step 2 CS - an expensive and cumbersome medical licensing exam with virtually no utility - has officially been nixed! Cheers to common sense, grassroots advocacy, and a more reasonable and humane medical education for all. 🍾 #MedStudentTwitter
Family Medicine Obstetrics is one of the keys to combating Black Maternal and Infant Mortality.
Collaborative efforts with OB, Pediatrics, Midwives, Doulas, and Lactation Consultants to offer truly wrap around care is how we are going to get desperately needed results.
With her strong and poignant words, @TheAmandaGorman reminds us of the power we each hold in upholding our democracy. Keep shining, Amanda! I can't wait to see what you do next. 💕 #BlackGirlMagic

@UW_DGIM @shobhastack Congratulations and so well deserved! @shobhastack is to date one of the best teachers I have had. Things just click when she explains them.
You want to thank Black women?
Cancel student debt -- all of it.
Black women carry more student debt than any other group in America.
Save your words of appreciation. Policy is our love language.
It’s simple: When people have more money to spend, our whole economy is better off. The Biden-Harris administration can put more money in people’s pockets by using their existing legal authority to cancel student loan debt for millions of Americans.
These terrorists are being bold around the country.
Amazing how, here in Washington, there were enough police to protect a police station like it held the holy grail, but these White folks can walk into the Governor’s mansion?!
The standards are clear.
