Quick life update:

Our book chapter on anal fissures just got published in the 2nd Ed of Difficult Decisions in Colorectal Surgery.. a very common and painful problem. Thankful to be invited to be a part of this textbook! @NitinMi59125565

When someone asks me

Had an amazing time learning how to apply for a job, reuniting with mentors, meeting giants in the field, and hanging out face to face with my co-fellows at the annual colorectal surgery career course. Thank you to all the speakers and organizers! 🤩 #onlyfellows #unhinged

New @JAMASurgery study analyzes over a million patients who underwent surgery between 2007-2019 & found that those treated by a female surgeon were less likely to die, get readmitted, or suffer a major complication within one year. ow.ly/4cYg50PHSqz

1/Please share this thread on behalf of my physician colleague, Eunice Stallman, who is facing the nightmare of her 9mo daughter, Zoey, being diagnosed with brain cancer several weeks ago. @BlueCrossIdaho has added to their anguish by obstructing access to vital treatment.

@Toddinoz Thank you! This journey can be mentally, physically + emotionally exhausting. I always appreciated that in those low moments when I didn’t think I could keep pushing longer + I was having imposter syndrome, my support system reminded me that I could do it and that I belonged here

Today I walked out of my last day of general surgery residency… A thread:

@yitmwa_ngwan Thank you! 😊 and yes, that moment DEFINITELY deserves a party!

@GaramHanMD OMG!!!! Congratulations 🎊🎊 Can’t wait to be done with residency(Orthopedics). I’ll surely throw a party👌👌

@Medisto19 I was also an IMG from a relatively new Caribbean medical school. Keep working hard and striving for excellence and the rest will follow! Glad I was able to encourage you in your journey. Good luck!

Thank you for sharing your journey. It definitely gives me hope as an img from a newer school trying to get into surgery residency

@Madhur2090 Aww thank you @Madhur2090 💛 This is so sweet!

Check out this amazing thread and post by one of my closest friend @GaramHanMD Dr Han is an amazing physician, who is tenacious as hell, kind and empathetic beyond belief, someone who take time to teach everyone around them and make everyone better!! Proud of you Ga-ram!!

@KekoaMDPhD Thanks @KekoaMDPhD I really enjoyed working with you too when you rotated with us! Congrats on all you’ve achieved since then! 🌟

@GaramHanMD @GaramHanMD Congrats on finishing! I will never forget when you were my intern as a medical student. I was so impressed by you and your patience with me as a learner. It’s humbling to hear your story, now many years later. The next gen of surgeons you teach are lucky to have you!

@lllllofaaaaarrr Good luck! 💪🏼

@GaramHanMD I had same struggles and only god knows how i made it this far. Manifesting i walk in ur steps and match in surgery too🥹

7. I am so very grateful to have made it to this point and to this specific residency program with this incredible group of attendings, co-residents and hospital staff. If I can do it, you can do it too 💪🏼

6. A little over 10 years ago, I was receiving rejection letter after rejection letter from medical schools, about to give up hope of being able to fulfill my dream of becoming a doctor
