The just-announced U.S. Supreme Court decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization represents a stunning reversal of precedent that inserts government into the personal lives and health care of Americans. nej.md/3Aa5cKe

The American College of Surgeons has long opposed governmental interference in the clinical practice of medicine and in the privileged physician-patient relationship. (1/3)

Steve Kerr on today's tragic shooting in Uvalde, Texas.

It takes a monster to kill children. But to watch monsters kill children again and again and do nothing isn’t just insanity—it’s inhumanity.

10 Days ago our nation witnessed a racially motivated mass shooting in Buffalo. How quickly our country forgot, only to be reminded today by the slaughter of Children at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas. 15 DEAD — 14 children and a Teacher. Let that sink in. Shame on us.

@JHHVascular @hopkinssurgery @WiscSurgery @AmberKernodle @BrighamVascular @UWVascsurg @AndrewMCameron @JamesHBlackMD What a powerhouse crew! Tried to convince all of you to go into peds surg… but alas. Happy for for you ladies!

Did you know that @hopkinssurgery has 3 amazing female residents who matched into #VascSurg last week? Alexis Graham 🔜 @WiscSurgery; @AmberKernodle 🔜 @BrighamVascular; Becky Sorber 🔜 @UWVascsurg. We are so proud of them! 👏 #ILookLikeASurgeon @AndrewMCameron @JamesHBlackMD

The toll of COVID on U.S. children includes >1200 deaths and >6400 cases of MIS-C. It is reassuring that most children recover from COVID uneventfully, but it is not alarmist to note that too many do not. Let’s not trivialize the anxiety many parents are feeling right now.

@HopkinsKids Cheers to @MaisymaeMae! Learned so much about ecmo from you 😘 🙏 🙌

“Going into my 24th year at Hopkins, I have been fortunate enough to have worked with the best providers, respiratory therapists, nurses & ancillary staff that I know,” said May Wilkinson, pediatric ECMO specialist. “We strive every day to come up with solutions for each child.”

“If you wouldn’t say it to your daughter, don’t say it to yourself.” What a powerful and honest perspective about the struggle with being a woman, surgeon, and mother. #ILookLikeASurgeon @EmilySteinhagen @EKing719 @rahila_essani @AnneMStey @StefanouAmalia @DrPrathima
