Cory Alexieff, DO

Update: this is me as a pediatrician

deciding if today's the day I finally decorate my apartment walls after a month of living here or if I just commit to a life of convincing myself that they look better blank (they don't)

Ohio Measles outbreak in 2022: only 5% of the Measles-infected children who were age-eligible for routine MMR vaccination had received an MMR dose. More than 40% of the kids had to be hospitalized. Vaccines are safe & effective so def get them plz & thx cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/7…

It’s 2:30 PM. You know what time it is. #2ndCoffeeBestCoffee

just had swordfish for the first time in years and I def forgot how good swordfish is and I’d just like to thank George Clooney for his sacrifice

Huge news! Curious to see the impact on our inpatient pediatric floors over the next few years. But as always, such a shame to see cost $$$ be an issue. Pediatricians who serve our most vulnerable populations will inevitably feel the brunt of this smh statnews.com/2023/08/03/cdc…

Gained so much insight and connected with so many brilliant folks at the SOHM Fellows Conference this week! So grateful to be part of this community 🤙🏼 #SOHM #phmfellows #pediatricians @PHMConf @PHMFellowships

Haven’t been to Dunkin’ in a minute and I go today only to find out they DISCONTINUED FRENCH CRULLERS??!?!?

@racb33 @Einstein_Peds A certain Dr. Garcia made them for the blue team to wear today!

When people ask me “why pediatrics?” I’m just gonna show them this shirt #bestjobever @Einstein_Peds

Congrats to everyone who matched today!!! Especially to my new #tweetiatrician friends! Can’t wait to meet the next batch of residents to welcome to the @Einstein_Peds fam! #Match2022

Today was my first day back on our inpatient peds rotation since the beginning of PGY-2 and I forgot how much I love hospital medicine ❤️ #PediatricHospitalMedicine

I only care about the Winter Olympics because every 4 years is the perfect amount of time between being passionate about curling.

That feeling when you fall asleep sitting upright and you get startled into another realm the second your head nods forward

Wait… There are people who just say what’s on their mind immediately without thinking about if you should say it, what’s the best way to say it, when to say it, how saying it would impact others, role playing the 38 scenarios that could play out if you said it??? …psychos

It’s funny the reactions I got this morning after telling people I got 4 total hours of sleep on my 24hr PICU call shift. Medical people are like wow good shift you can have a normal post-call day now and non-medical people are like oh my god are you ok sweetie go get some rest

just filled up my gas tank on the way home from work instead of leaving it for morning Cory to deal with and ok where do I go to collect my award

The easy residency

@iuls @DGlaucomflecken Ah no problem with that. I cringe when people refer to patients as “kiddo”. It’s usually non-peds people trying to sound “peds-y” and it can often be really dehumanizing

Are you a doctor with a weird personality and strange pet peeves that nobody outside your small area of medicine really cares about? Glaucomflecken General Hospital wants to hear from you!

best thing about masks is that now I can never tell if someone I’m politely interacting with is just bad at smiling with their eyes or if my existence in that moment is a burden on their soul
