Caralee Caplan-Shaw, MD

@OSinokrot @sucharitakher @amgodogma Where is she from? The location is atypical, there is no other tree in bud on the CT, and she has no constitutional symptoms. Correct? I think it’s more likely to be MAC.

@sucharitakher I agree! No evidence of vasculitis. The patient is from an endemic area for TB. My current leading differential is TB. Final cultures pending. Would you start treatment for TB if no other data is positive? It’s what im thinking of doing @CaplanShawCE @amgodogma

A 70 year old female, never smoker, history of hypertension and gastritis underwent evaluation by her PCP for a non resolving dry cough (initially thought to be post viral). A CXR was obtained. What abnormality do you see and what’s next? #pulmtwitter

@tubercuLOLsis @NJMS_GTBI Adorable photos! Thank you again, Kate, for sharing your incredible story with such candor, humor, and caring at #WorldTBDay2018 at Bellevue/NYU. And shout out to colleague and former Bellevue/NYU doc Amee Patrawalla!

I finished #TB treatment 2 years ago today! Dr. Glyptis of Mt. Sinai West started me on regimen, Dr. Patrawalla of @NJMS_GTBI saw me through it. Both Drs treated me w respect & empathy and I’ll never stop feeling grateful for them. ♥️

@COREIMpodcast @ShreyaTrivediMD @virenkaul @Marty_Fried @PulmonaryCC Bravo, Shreya!! At The World TB Day conference at Bellevue/NYU on Monday, we talked a lot about how important new guidelines will have no effect if we don’t get the message out there. You are making it happen!!

@MarkLevineNYC @nycHealthy @TAGTeam_Tweets @housingworks @GMHC @NYIC_Health @tubercuLOLsis @LatinoCommAIDS @AfricanServices @thenyic @DrDemetre Thank you for your powerful words of support!

Speaking at #WorldTBDay conference on rising threat of Tuberculosis in NYC--up 10% in past year, biggest increase since 1992. We need to restore funding to our city's TB efforts to head off this crisis. #TBfreeNYC

So excited to be hosting World TB Day at Bellevue/NYU!
