Happy Thank a Resident Day! Thank you to all of our UT Health SA Residents and fellows for all that you do and continue to do to serve San Antonio! We truly appreciate each one of you!

Graduate Medical Education celebrates Dr. Greene J Starnes, who became the first African American Surgeon in San Antonio, Texas. Dr. Starnes' beliefs and practices in medical ethics helped shape the medical community! Thank you Dr. Starnes!

Graduate Medical Education celebrates Dr. Robert LM Hillard for his contributions as a doctor and his love for education. Dr. Hillard focused on improving status, qualification and opportunities for African American students admissions.

Graduate Medical Education celebrates Dr. Dianna Burns-Banks for her contributions to helping those who were not able to access health care. “It’s almost a moral shame that we would be in such a rich society, and there are so many people who can’t get routine health care.”

Our Office for GME team wore maroon today in accordance with @UTHealthSA President’s recommendation in support of #Uvalde victims and families and our faculty, residents, fellows and staff providing care @UnivHealthSA.

@ErikaPIbarra Heartbreaking news. Our prayers & thoughts are with the parents, children, teachers, first responders and with you, our other residents, fellows, faculty and staff @UnivHealthSA, @UTHealthSurg, and @UTHealthGME. So pleased your are joining our faculty.

Expecting my 1st child should be exciting but today…I’m terrified, heartbroken w my soul crushed thinking about those parents that won’t be able to hold their kids anymore. Being there ready to help and then hearing that most of them couldn’t even make it to us was Devastating

One of our very own IM residents, Carolina Velez-Mejia, is participating in the History of Medicine lecture series. The link for registration is below. If you are able please join to learn some history and support Carolina. @uthsaim @UTHealthGME

What started as a resident frustration ended as an improved handoff tool! Thanks Dr. Thuylinh Nguyen from @UTHealthGME for speaking up and the @SanAntonioVAMC team for supporting this safety effort. Here we recognize them with Education coins! #MedEd #QIPS Safety Culture!

The future is now! Welcome our new GME House Staff Council Leaders.
