I’m an EM DOC. I love AIRWAYS and KETAMINE and RESUSCITATIONS. I eat at MY DESK. I do MY BEST within THE SYSTEM. Everyone please follow up with your PCP.

Day 2 of @DallasFireRes_q Medical Director Bootcamp focused on higher level thinking & differential diagnosis, & the “art” of a focused H&P to rearrange that diff dx as you go. Great small group cases with them. We’re training “clinicians” and “practitioners” here. #EMS @UTSW_EM
