Great to be back at the AAP NCE. Good to see friends old and new. Here is @CarmenTongGU talking about renal trauma in our combined urology/gen surgery session.

We are thrilled to announce that Lauren Corona @lecorona will join our team @VUMCPedsUrology once she completes her fellowship at Lurie. @LurieUrology. Excited for her to bring her knowledge and skills to her new home! Congrats to her and her family. We are lucky @VUMCurology.

Our Pediatric ENT service needed to perform surgeries today (Saturday) to help patients that can’t have surgery during weekdays…our team huddle this morning bringing all the positive energy!! Appreciate all our staff and nurses today! @VUMCchildren @VanderbiltENT

Great strategic meeting of the terrific @VUMCchildren Spina Bifida Clinic today! @VUMCurology @VUMCOrtho @VUMC_Neurosurg @vumcpmr @vumcpedsosic Proud to be a part of this team!

Name the most memorable call from your favorite sports announcer.

@VUMCPedsUrology @DrewFranklinMD @ATaylor_MD @RohanBhallaMD @BenAbelson @Viktor80010472 @Akinsola_MD This was spectacular - so fortunate to have such colleagues

@BenAbelson I thought you were talking about @RohanBhallaMD at first

How sweet is the satisfaction when you teach someone to tie a knot for the first time?! Even sweeter when he runs up to you a few minutes later and says “Dad, I did both shoes myself and even double knotted them!”

@BenAbelson @mernstUro @tanaksta @VUMCurology That’s amazing.

@mernstUro @tanaksta @VUMCurology I earned it when I misspelled “y’all” in an email to @popejc during my first month of fellowship.

After superstar @BenAbelson @VUMCurology moves to Arizona to start his #peduro practice, he wants to be known as Dr. “Tennessee” Abelson 😛 #AUA22

@VUMCPedsUrology @Viktor80010472 We also celebrated Dr John Brock for all his contributions to our program. He was the founder of the program and division director for almost 30 years before passing the torch in 2020. Thank you Dr Brock!

@VUMCPedsUrology @Viktor80010472 This was a great event. Thanks to everyone who came back to Nashville and thanks to Dr Cheng for educating us!

@BenAbelson We can discuss….

I think Siri must have misheard me? On my best behavior today…

In 2019, Christie knew something was wrong with her 6-year-old daughter, Charlotte, but she would have never thought Charlotte was experiencing one of the rarest urinary tract conditions imaginable. Read their family's story in our blog below. ⤵️ gaurology.com/threes-a-crowd…

@TylerMahanCoe Amen Brother!

Let There Be Rock is the best AC/DC album. There isn't a bad song on it but the six song run from the title track through to the end of the LP is nearly unrivaled in hard rock. If you haven't heard it, you haven't heard AC/DC. youtube.com/watch?v=YDY6fz…

@TheChadWithrow What? So we can go back to the QB success stories like Kerry Collins, Jake Locker, and Marcus Mariota?

Tired of people criticizing fans that want to do better than Ryan Tannehill. The #Titans must look into every possible avenue to improve the position. Odds are they can’t upgrade next season, but I’m not blaming fans for asking the question.

@VUMCPedsUrology @VUMCurology @nielsvjohnsen This is a fantastic series that we are providing for anyone interested. Geared for fellows and early faculty we are trying to give information that you may not get in training. Our last talk was on the economics of healthcare and it received rave reviews. Please join us!

@CrittendenV And it didn’t come without severe anxiety

It’s been a good run. So appreciative of @tanaksta and all she’s meant to our program. Best of luck in your new role as chief of peds urology @UABUrology! We will miss you. @VUMCPedsUrology @VUMCurology

Woot woot! Congrats to @LPeard for winning the clinical abstract prize is the SPU! @SPU_Urology @PedsUroOnc @UKYurology
