BREAKING NEWS: Maryland abortion amendment passes, protecting against future restrictions thebaltimorebanner.com/politics-power…

@BarredinDC Uptowner on 24th & M!

Looking to do a best DC sandwich shop poll thread (at least 2-3 threads necessary) soon. Here's preliminary list What's missing? Would exclude chicken sandwich, burger, and perhaps controversially bagel shops (though I could be convinced otherwise), and places that aren't really sandwich shops but have some good sandwiches

It’s 2024 and I like tomatoes now!

If you matched, congratulations. Now, DO NOT USE your home address and personal number for anything license/provider number related. Use your hospital’s, this will be public info. Thanks for coming to my TED talk

Well, it's official - I'm going to @hopkins_ent! Thrilled to join the residency program where my parents met and trained, and a department that has played such a big role in my love of ENT. A full-circle moment for us, for sure! @AAOHNS #otomatch #MatchDay2024 #Match2024

Today we honor Dr. William West, who died by suicide. 
His family writes, “We hope systemic changes can be made to support aspiring medical professionals better. This is critical. We don’t want any other families to experience tragedies like this.”

TW: suicide There is an empty corner desk in a resident workroom at GW. Now forever engraved in my mind, that desk is a harrowing reminder of the cost of medical training. In his final words, Dr. William West said that he was simply out of gas, that he had nothing left to give.

I’m going to be an ENT! If you told me four years ago I’d become a surgeon, I wouldn’t have believed you. But if you told me when I was four, I wouldn’t have been surprised! So honored & humbled to join this specialty that has been a part of my life for so long. #otomatch
