Exciting to attend @SanfordHealth's Summit on the Future of Rural Health Care last week. It was a pleasure to connect with @AmerMedicalAssn President Bobby Mukkamala, MD to discuss issues facing our state's physicians and the importance of state medical association membership.

New resources to help provide information to patients. One infographic explains why vaccines are an important part of staying healthy & encourages patients to talk w/ their physician if they have questions. The other offers physicians conversation starters to help build trust.
AMA@AmerMedicalAssn

Many people are confused about vaccines or unsure where to turn for evidence-based answers. To cut through confusion, the AMA has released new tools to help patients and physicians have open, honest conversations with each other. ➡️ spr.ly/6013AgVWb ⬅️

SCAM ALERT: Scammers are impersonating DEA agents & targeting medical professionals w/ fake calls claiming physicians are under investigation. The DEA will never call about investigative matters or demand personal info/payment. If you're called, report to IC3.gov.

📢Measles vaccine clinics 🩺 Measles is highly contagious and can cause serious complications. It is preventable through the safe and effective MMR (measles, mumps, rubella) vaccine. Find a clinic near you and get vaccinated to stay healthy and help stop the spread.
