Love when attendings try to appropriate toxic med culture. Our attending told our team today "If you're not tired everyday after work, you're not working hard enough." This is why mental health in medicine is terrible. 😔 #MedTwitter #ToxicMed

Just a reminder that Asian Americans are out here battling increases in violence, higher rates of depression and anxiety, and so many are standing up for Black lives. We all need to be standing with them, too.

@AllisonRBond @PettyHomoMD I remember one time during rounds my attending asked which service we were going to consult for a patient but he said "Who are we gonna call?". Naturally I replied "Ghostbusters!". Thankfully he laughed it off 😅

Don’t be like me. As a resident, I had a patient w/thick chest tube output - looked like a milkshake, as my ICU attending put it during bedside rounds. “But did it bring the boys to the yard?!” I blurted out, right there in front of everybody. Thank God they all laughed.

What does it mean when they boo the Black congresswoman denouncing white supremacy?

@cusm_muhc @McGillMed Where are the vaccines for medical students and residents?! #frontlineworkers #COVID19 #dontforgetus

Normalize medical professionals truly supporting each other and ending the legacy of abuse that permeates the halls of medicine.

Our final #MyMD blog highlight of 2020 was written by Ashley Tshala (@ashley_binta) who was a fourth-year medical student at the time. Tshala wrote about the importance of establishing a Black Medical Students Association (@BmsaUsask). medicine.usask.ca/news/2020/mymd…

The plight of the international med student 😔 Help a friend out and donate. We need more representation in medicine but it can't happen if we don't support them! ✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿

Anyone have any good online resources for someone learning Ob/Gyn ultrasound? #MedTwitter

I pull screaming naked humans out of other humans, who are also sometimes screaming.

I feel so blessed tonight 🥰 As I was introducing myself to a patient, she stopped me, turned to her husband and said "Honey, can we just appreciate this brown girl moment right now. Our doctor and our nurse are PoC. This was meant to be" #BlackintheIvory #MedTwitter

Learning curve in intern year is so real, so far I've learned how to: - Sleep 5 hours a day - Eat lunch in 3.5 min - Boost my keyboard typing speed x3, single handed while answering 4 telephone calls simultaneously - Memorize a bunch of passwords What have u learned so far?

Our vulnerability is a gift most white people take for granted. A thread.
