This was my last day in my primary care clinic of 6+ years. Such a mix of feelings as I said goodbye to patients. I found myself expressing things that I wished I had said earlier, like “I am so proud of the progress you’ve made in [insert any number of areas]!” 1/5

Hoping that all addiction professionals will join me at the California Society of Addiction Medicine Conference in San Francisco 8/22/24 to 8/24/24! Full of practice-changing learning for physicians, APPs, and other health care professionals. csam-asam.org/csam-2024/

@thehowie Insecurity heavily correlated with golden toilet ownership.

Fairly certain Trump was a very insecure boarder.

Cautiously returning to Twitter 😉. So excited for the year ahead after a board meeting of @csam_connect! Hoping to share more about health policy and addiction medicine in 2024.

@JeromeAdamsMD The noise cancellation on the 2nd generation Pros is amazing. So good for situations like airplanes or loud neighbors. So bad for noticing what’s going on around you…

Hot take: AirPods are an existential threat to human interaction. Today I greeted 4 people in my neighborhood and 3 completely ignored me- all 3 had AirPods in. The only response was from a young boy eager to pet my dogs. Just my neighborhood? Thoughts? #AirPods #HumanInteraction

@arghavan_salles Was chatting with a colleague about how the newer generations of physicians appreciate clinical pharmacists so much! It’s a team effort.

What is happening?!

I will know that the grift is out of Medicare Advantage when I stop getting spam texts asking me to sign up for them. My name isn’t Reina, but I hope she’s not responding to you, either.

@thehowie @hmkyale @UVMLarnerMed @AAMCtoday @sarahkrum @fractweets Thanks, Howie! Super supportive of the Congressional @HungerCenter and the Emerson Fellowship. Changed my life and made it very clear what type of doctor I wanted to be!

@hmkyale @UVMLarnerMed @AAMCtoday @sarahkrum @fractweets Emerson fellows were way ahead on this. Can’t be prouder than seeing how this guy turned out. @DCTian hungercenter.org/people/david-t…

What a great project... @UVMLarnerMed they are challenging students & their teachers to live on a SNAP budget ($6/day) for a week; generating an understanding of the lives of others. So important. Should be required for all med schools. #empathy @AAMCtoday @sarahkrum @fractweets

@traceyh415 Yay! Congrats! ❤️

Today marks 25 years of sobriety. I never thought I would get off drugs and make it out of the Tenderloin yet here we are. Sober is just one way to recover. Do what works for you.

Side by side…

A comparison of the Kitara photo and political headshot of George Santos is striking… What similarities do you see?

Watched the actual news and felt like I was Daria Morgendorffer. What is even happening?…

We did a thing! #TwitteRx #buprenorphine @pharmacists @RIpharmacists urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https…

@sarcandes That Fire Flash / Chlorophytum Orchidastrum is beautiful! So full.

Happy light day ✨
