Most patients don't realize their doctors and nurses think about them in the spaces between visits. While driving home, getting ready for bed, while falling asleep. Our work is a part of us, and we care about you. That's all.

It’s time for @AmerUrological guidelines for Testicular Torsion: ❌ Risk of organ loss ❌ High rate of litigation ❌ Transfer delays ❌ NO formal clinical guidelines We need a standardized protocol to protect patients and providers. Who’s with me? ✋

Physicians have dealt with a 29% real decline in Medicare reimbursements over the past two decades, even as practice expenses (like staffing, equipment, and malpractice insurance) have risen faster than inflation This proposed cut is akin to telling a factory worker, “Great job automating the line to boost output. Here’s a pay cut because you’re too productive now.” Urology community: make your voice heard now. Like and retweet… extend the reach. Don’t assume others will do it.

HUGELY IMPORTANT Urology friends: votervoice.net/AUA/Campaigns/… CMS is looking to cut procedural reimbursement by 2.5% on the presumption that we are becoming more efficient. Sign this petition.

Took about 30s to complete and have tailored message sent to my representatives. Clink link below and add your voice to fight this change and trend of reducing physician reimbursement, the people actually providing the care to patients. #auaadvocacy @CMAdocs @AmerMedicalAssn

The “efficiency adjustment” in the 2026 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (MPFS) means that CMS will cut work RVUs for thousands of procedures by 2.5% starting January 1, with further reductions every 3 years. The AUA is fighting this policy, but we need your help. Tell Congress to stop the efficiency adjustment in the MPFS! #AUAadvocacy Click to learn more and advocate: bit.ly/4nFBke0

American Taxpayers will loan you money to go to college and drop out the first semester. Start a business that fails within the year. Buy a house that you can’t afford to keep up. But if you get into a horrendous car wreck and can’t afford your healthcare insurance deductible… Thoughts and Prayers to You.

People out there really think doctors don't want to "cure" you of disease because then we'll run out of patients. Buddy, there will always be people with disease. Every physician on earth could cure 40 people per day, every day, for 100 years, and guess what? There will still be 40 new people with disease for us to cure the next day.

An every day battle for doctors and staff. While trying to actively see patients, they are subjected to arbitrary “peer-to-peer” reviews that are in reality pre-determined. These “peers” often have no actual expertise in our specialites and are not “peers". Well done.
Elisabeth Potter MD@EPotterMD

I’m sharing an actual recent peer-to-peer call that shows what physicians and patients face when trying to get a surgery approved. This call felt as absurd as it sounds. The peer-to-peer call was to advocate for surgery to prevent and treat lymphedema for a patient with breast cancer. Her risk is high and we can perform a surgery to lower it. The doctors from the insurance company on the call were an ophthalmologist with a subspecialty in oculoplastic surgery and a plastic surgeon who currently has a cosmetic practice. Neither doctor has ever performed lymph venous bypass…the surgery I was trying to get approved for my patient. Neither doctor would provide their name or license number. At the conclusion of the call, the doctors told me that they didn’t have the power to make a determination or decision to perform the surgery. They were just there to inform me of United’s decision to deny it. The Medical Decision was not up to the doctors on the call. It had already been made by United. So here I am, appealing again. Medical decisions should be made by doctors who are well informed and patient-centered. Patients deserve access to the care that they paid for with their premiums.

Too many people recognize their opinions as feelings, but mistake their beliefs for facts. Closed minds hold truths to be self-evident. Open minds are willing to question even strongly held views. Lifelong learning requires the courage to challenge our own convictions.

Too many men feel threatened by the success of women they love. Evidence: If their wives earn more money than them, men are less satisfied with their marriages. They feel less masculine and more inadequate. Women's success should be a source of pride, not a cause of insecurity.
