Hi everyone, in June I was in a car accident and sustained some injuries that have limited my ability to drive my current car (more details provided in the link below). I’m starting medical school in 2 weeks and would greatly appreciate your support :) gofund.me/12a69fc2

As a soon to be medical student and person with a disability, I hope to echo and further what’s talked about in this podcast. Big thanks to @DocsWith , @abkessler , and @AAMCtoday for leading these efforts!
AAMC@AAMCtoday

Recently on #BeyondtheWhiteCoat, we discuss why doctors w/ disabilities are underrepresented in medicine, how society at large continues to play a role in ableism, & small actions that can be taken to encourage more people w/ disability to pursue medicine. ow.ly/YcyX50R3p7E

In light of last week’s anti-DEI bill in medical education that would punish medical schools with DEI programs, it’s reassuring to see the @AAMCtoday putting forward a statement reaffirming the importance of a healthcare workforce that reflects our diverse patient population!

The inclusion of students with disabilities strengthens med schools, health systems, and the communities they serve. It’s wonderful to see these learners advocating for consistent accommodations, informed by people with lived experiences. cbc.ca/news/canada/ha…

Functional Fitness is an extension of rehabilitation into the community. Check out the new class for seated athletes on @onepeloton featuring my two badass buddies @tommiazga @aldridgelogan1 ♿️ For a wheelchair user, a transfer is the functional equivalent of a squat in a standing person. 💪 It is important to train these movements to preserve independence. ✌️ Fitness is freedom. #Physiatry #fitness #adaptive #adaptivefitness #adaptiveathlete #peloton
