A long held dream came true yesterday. Here are some of the people who made it happen 🤍 Dr. Best now at your service for all your rural health needs ☺️ @MUNMed

@JaneCoozeMD Lol is this Best Buy??

Members of the Offices of the Dean of Medicine and Distributed Medical Education explored our Northern NL rural teaching sites this week during National #RuralHealthWeek. @SRPCanada @DeanMUNMed @Dolores_McKeen

@mikep_lbi Huge congratulations Mike from one islander to another! 😊

A decade ago today, I chose to seek help for my alcohol addiction. I spent two months in rehab, and my life has been immeasurably better ever since.#sober

@JaneCoozeMD Feeling real thankful for HPV vaccines!!

fogoislandfuneralhome.com/obituaries/Don… My pop died yesterday. He lived a long, productive, and influential life. He was a fierce advocate for Fogo Island and for rural fisherman. He helped found the Fogo Island Co-Op and was deeply involved in community advocacy. We will miss him so much 🤍

Hug your fisher people today 🤍

Also thinking of the crew, and what they’ve endured mentally and physically over the past few days. I can’t begin to imagine the trauma of event like this, to be in a life raft at sea just.. waiting.

As a child of a fishermen, it was impossible not to imagine yourself in the shoes of these families over the last few days. This story ultimately and miraculously has a happy ending, but hits far too close to home 🤍 cbc.ca/news/canada/ne…

The ferry isn’t always the worst, especially summer evenings like this

@_JamieJGreen It is my rural duty 🫡

@AllisonBest1 Thanks Pop!

Bit of a wait if travelling on TCH through GFW, bridge construction/paving at rushy pond #nltraffic

Beautiful evening on Paul’s Lake ☀️

@KazerouniA @UofTNeuroSurge Congrats!! Big things ahead 😊

First day of PGY1 with the team! @UofTNeuroSurge

@Michelle67Green Essentially!! 😅

@AllisonBest1 So essentially what your saying is 1 more year til I have a family Dr ?

Last day as a PGY-1 🥹 It’s hard to believe a year has passed already. Being a family medicine resident is not also smooth sailing; 5 moves in 1 year, off service rotations, and a healthy dose of imposter syndrome to name a few.

@SenatorRavalia Thank you! Hope to meet you in real life soon 😊

@AllisonBest1 Congratulations. So proud of you😊

Despite this, and despite the current state of family medicine in this province and country, I still can say it is a joy and privilege to practice/learn family medicine in rural NL 🤍

@JohnRiche Thunder and lightning, HATE it still

What is your most irrational fear that you had as a child and still fear as an adult? For me it's Piranhas, followed closely by Quicksand.

@JaneCoozeMD Ok this is actually crazy to me??
