Thrilled to announce that Dr. Angela Kuhnen will be the new Program Director of Colorectal Surgery at Lahey Clinic!! Thank you Dr. Lisa Breen for your leadership over the last 5 years!! @AHKuhnen @lisambreen @peterwmarcello1 @DavidKleimanMD @JSaraidaridis @jabelsonmd

@Aos_MD is a hard act to follow. He just presented his research on anal cancer at #ASCRS22 and I am so impressed!! @WiscSurgery @ASCRS_1

Just left the steps of #SCOTUS. We are ready for this fight and we are not backing down. Stand up. Speak out. Turn your anger into action: bansoffourbodies.org.

I had an abortion. I will never forget the alienation from myself that I felt carrying an unwanted pregnancy. I can’t speak for everyone but as unsurprising as the opinion is, I’m flooded with despair and shock

Real opportunity for improved #rectalcancer surgical care in the US. Not even reasonable that 40% of surgeons only offer APR, resulting in permanent colostomy. We have alternative surgical options that offer sphincter preservation. #tatme #roboticsurgery #secondopinion #ASCRS22

The BEST mentors see the qualities in you that you may not see and help you realize YOUR potential, YOUR vision (not theirs). #ASCRS22

Remembering our colleague and friend, Kelsey Musgrove, MD, who was an excellent surgeon and an even better person. surgery.wisc.edu/2022/04/07/rem…

Great presentation by Dr. Jessica Schumacher from @WiscSurgery @ #AmerSurg2022 demonstrating the impact that @SurgCollabWi is having on the health of #WI patients! Thank you @Eliselawson and @CapriceGreenber for your leadership of this program!

Come join our group!!

Triumvirate. @liewegas, because he is kind not just rational and would not want the job. Peter Thiel, because he would take the hard decisions based on data (make sure he is after the right outcomes first!). @elonmusk, because the world needs to be moved forward by someone.

There’s another important election coming up in Wisconsin on Tuesday April 6! Whether or not you have school aged kids, I think we can all agree that we need a thoughtful, dedicated person as superintendent. Jill is that person. secure.actblue.com/donate/0328eve…
