@davidcarr333 congrats, David! Very well deserved and I am happy you are getting the recognition you deserve for the value you bring

I am happy to share that I have been promoted to Full Professor at the University of Toronto as an Academic Emergency Physician. I would not have been able to achieve this recognition w/o the most incredible mentors & learners who pushed me to aim higher and strive to be better.

@md_frost Way too many "med twitter" people almost appear like AI driven bots that deliver hot-takes on the latest issue in the news (to your point - diverse, unrelated, likely require deep context to understand). It's disheartening.

@HeatherM211 I thought this was an @TheOnion article... the double standards are mind boggling. Keep partying Sanna!

Proud of our study at @UHN @UofTFamilyMed in the @BioMedCentral on the influence of connecting medical students with isolated seniors! shout out to Noah Crampton, Laure Perrier, Sabrina Akhtar and Soumia not on twitter. bmcgeriatr.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

@jameshamblin miss your articles! Where can I find new articles you're publishing?

I never did a ~some personal news~ post but fyi

Sound advice, as always

@AlainnaJJ This behaviour self resolves for most people pretty quickly

We always talk about how stretched, short staffed we are. Which is obviously true. I just want to recognize and shout out everyone still on the front lines in healthcare, day in and day out picking up the slack. 👏👏👏

Great take on the inter-connectivity of the system. What happens in the emerg does not stay in the emerg…

Shout out to all my Royal College friends who passed their exams recently. What an accomplishment!

@hswapnil Thank you for sharing! I've seen several patients post-Paxlovid develop significant adverse events in this day 6-10 day window. I'm wondering if its paxlovid or something Omicron subvariant specific

@GrayMoonen Yes - the ‘rebound’ occurs sometimes - not sure how much - the ones I saw improved (again) in a couple of days Here’s the FDA statement fda.gov/drugs/news-eve…

@ASPphysician @MPaiMD @PaulSaxMD @DrToddLee I totally agree, although you'd know a lot more about this than I would. I'm batting at something around 80% with this in both the unvaccinated and vaccinated population (older). It's this 5 day period of minimal symptoms, only to have +++ symptoms/issues days 6-10.

Noticing an increasing number of unfilled family medicine positions in the #CARMS2022 match. For anyone that has not matched in the first round and is considering #FamilyMedicine please do not hesitate to direct message me here on Twitter and I am happy to chat.

@tara_kiran Hopeful as well, but this is disheartening! Do we have a decent understanding of some of the key drivers for this drift? I'm not as involved with undergrads but I want to help more pursue family medicine!

Excited to welcome a new cohort of residents to family medicine July 1 👏🏽🥳 But disheartened that there seems to be declining interest among med students to choose family medicine as a career ☹️ Hopeful that opening up capitation and team-based spots in Ontario will help 🌞

Best of luck to everyone in the #CARMS2022 match! Two things: 1. Your identity is more diverse and robust than where you match. 2. Residency is > med school and staff life is > residency. Lots to look forward to!

@RVeldhoen @BuddingSprout SJS/TEN.... sulfa drugs

Presented with erythrmatous rash preceded by fever and malaise after taking trimethroprine/sulfamethamethoazole. 1/3

@md_frost Great take and I’ve always appreciated your capacity for nuance and complexity! I think more “extreme” political views, one way or the other certainly cloud judgement and make the actual job of being a regular old doctor more challenging, esp in this climate

It’s a good time to remind myself and others that the vast, vast majority of Canadians support healthcare workers wholeheartedly.

We deal with blood, guts, resuscitation, end of life, babies, elderly, having difficult conversations, saving lives on little to no sleep sometimes. You can’t intimidate us, we are built of stronger stuff.

Healthcare workers went to work for two years despite a novel, deadly virus. We left our cars on the highway to walk to work in a blizzard to treat all comers. We will continue to treat patients in our scrubs despite the fringe threats and traffic inconvenience
