@JohnAgzarianMD Congrats Se In!! I love how DrYoung has formalized his scrubs

Congratulations to Dr. Se-In Choe recipient of the JEM Young Thoracic Surgery Resident Educator Award! Well deserved!

I predict Ryan Reynolds sharing his colonoscopy (and polyp) will do more for colorectal cancer awareness than half of anything we’ve tried as a GI profession… …and I’m grateful for every second of it 🥹💙 @LeadFromBehind @brooksbell @CCAlliance @VancityReynolds #GITwitter

@BlairBigham @DrJenGunter Congratulations Blair! Such an incredible accomplishment in someone who is so talented and driven. You're an inspiration. Can't wait to read it!

When your book is placed next to ⁦@DrJenGunter⁩ you kinda freak out a little. It’s out!! #DeathInterrupted delves into a modern dilemma: we have technology to support almost every organ, but when do we throw in the towel and allow death to come? We can’t all live forever.

Had to do it when one of my nurse's moms made this adorable scrub cap. May the 4th!!

@cutitoutPODCAS1 @SAGES_Updates @IHPBA @CHPBAsurg @CAGS_ACCG @OAGS1 Consult HPB. MRCP? I would not attempt!

@leashgreer Congratulations! It's an incredible feeling!! Enjoy!!

Can’t think of the right combination of words to explain how great it feels to be finished my royal college exam after months and months of studying. Time to celebrate.

@AspiringERMD I agree with looking at the long term. Residency was really hard but was not the forever plan. I'm 1.5 y years out and life is so much better ♡ thinking rural/non academic? sign up for an elective somewhere you're interested in. It'll give q much better view of the other side

Screw in the middle of Thoracic Aorta lumen !! I know what I would do. Any new tricks from old dogs?? #medtwitter @GustavoOderich @AWBeckMD @cfbechara @farkomd @AortaSurg @VascularMD @VascSurgMD @jmills1955 @DrZeigler1 @AortophilicMD @malas_mahmoud

@drddath @HamHealthSci Dr. Dath - this would be a great reason to have ice cream rounds today! I am so grateful to have trained at HHS with such great staff!!

Happy Birthday, @HamHealthSci. Favourite memory? Too many. How about every time I see our nurses practice compassion—beyond just the medical necessities, or a day of fabulous OR collaboration, or entire programs to benefit patients, like ERAS

Vacation day 2. At least I found an intussusception

I find it really difficult that every health care worker has put their life and their family's lives on the line for each and every patient over the past 2 years but I'm invading people's personal lives if I ask if my hairstylist is vaccinated. I need way more than 15m of work.

@LolaAkinfem It's becoming more rare but until it stops - introducing myself that way inspires confidence and helps.

@LolaAkinfem This is tough. As a resident and even as a staff there are alot of people that are surprised females are doctors let alone surgeons. Now I always introduce myself as Dr & last name. Otherwise it's frustrating to have the questions.. "when do I see the doc or who's operating on me

Question for residents. Do you introduce yourself to your patients with your first name or Dr. ___ ? #medtwitter
