Not the result I was hoping for today. ☹️ So many emotions. Lots of pain, but so much happiness for all of my very deserving friends who did match! This week will be hard. I’m so grateful for all the people who are helping me through it ❤️‍🩹

Inaugural neurosurgery sub-I spine cadaver lab: MS4s are just future residents/colleagues — might as well start early. If you think you can bear 4 hours of me chattering about spine, you’ll always be welcome to an away rotation at @UCSDNeuroSurg! #Neurosurgery #MedTwitter

My first successful pedicle screw placement! And a few not so successful ones 😅 but practice makes progress— especially with the guidance of a great teacher. Thanks for this awesome opportunity, Dr. Pham!

Feeling #grateful for the patients that pop in your head when something reminds you of them, realizing the impact they left on you and life lessons you may have learned from them and their care…

@jacobbethel33 @jessie_davis13 Yay!! Congrats!!!!! 🥳

A day late, but @jessie_davis13 and I are excited to officially couples match to Neurosurgery and Pediatrics! Looking forward to Friday to see where we’re going 🤞🏻

@paulaalorenaa This is standardized test victim blaming

@sjspiveyp Racial and cultural inequities are made and maintained by concentrated wealth. When I was on wards I worked with so many incredible people who are putting in as much good work as they can. Community based public resources deserve funding!!! People need to be FUNDED!!!

@sjspiveyp Yes and yes and yes and yes and yes . Contract bedding was one of the most tragic things I’ve ever seen. Hospitals function as rescue stability and not much else. Better support exists, but really only for people with $$$$.

#ClinicalRotationsReflections 7: This week on emergency psych: The system is often not fair. The middle-class/poor often get screwed over more than the indigent. Psychiatric care is heavily bureaucratic. Psych facilities are few and far between. ED utilization vs. long-term

Impt @CDCMMWR release today showing despite decline in #SARSCoV2 efficacy in preventing infection as #DeltaVariant increasingly dominates, strong protection vs hospitalization / death remains. This graph! @UABNews cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/7…

How could/should we expand female representation in #neurosurgery? Read about opportunities in our editorial & please share thoughts of your own! thejns.org/focus/view/jou… @TheJNS @WomenSurgeons @WINSneurosurge1 @SadlerSammie @eliana_e_kim @clairekarekezi @MGH_RI @MGHNeuroSci

Finally got around to potting this huge monstera clipping from @paulaalorenaa 🥰 thoughts and prayers for her please!
