I moved across the continent with one dream. The road to surgery as an IMG is long, hard and uncertain. I’m forever grateful for the people who believed in me, listened to my story and made this happen. I promise I’ll make you all proud @VNikolian #GenSurgMatch2022 @IMG_Advocate

Colorectal cancer is common, deadly, and preventable. It's the 3rd most common cancer in the US, and the second leading cause of cancer-related death. About 5% of us are going to get colorectal cancer during our lifetimes. The best tool we have to detect cancer and pre-cancerous polyps is a colonoscopy. The USPSTF recommends that screening colonoscopy start at age 45 for average-risk people, and this is covered by your insurance. If you have a family history, you need to start even earlier. Please please please get your colonoscopy. Then, you'll never have to discover first-hand if I'm any good at my job or not. The life you save may be your own! @unmc @NebraskaMed #coloncancer

An older drawing showing why grabbing 'extra' fat and muscle when closing the fascia can lead to separation of the fascia later on. On the next slide, we'll use simple geometry to understand why suture 'A' is not as good as suture 'B'. 🧵(1/3)

@awsumpowers Too many IMGs get discouraged by posts like these.

@RoaldCredo Congrats!

Proper surgical ergonomics make a big difference in longevity of a urologist's career. Dr. Michelle Shabo @ShaboMichelle -- @BIDMCUrology grand rounds

@akobzherz No. Unfortunately not. 1) I teach everyone how to scope with one hand to eliminate any teaching bias of folks with larger hands. 2) there are wheel adapters to help make the little wheels more accessible of you can’t learn the one handed methods (see image)  

@DissanaikeMD @UNM @TTUHSCSurgery Congratulations Dr. D!

Looking forward to this session!

March is colorectal cancer awareness month. Get screened 🙏🏼 @ASCRS_1 @MNCRSurgery @juliomayol @SWexner @nlavellaneda @ColonCancerCoal

Good luck to all the #Match2024 applicants for tomorrow! If things don’t go as planned, it is not the end of the road. There might be a different route to achieve your goal.

Last week, we tragically lost a resident physician in an MVA. He is survived by his wife and baby son. One of our IM residents started this fundraiser. If you are so inclined, please donate here and share the link with others. @UAZMedTucson @UAZHealth gofund.me/6bf23bf6
