Master of Public Health ✅ “We will continue to critically examine the status quo and actively work toward an antiracist world by centering people who are disenfranchised and disproportionately exposed to unhealthy environments.” Thanks for an incredible year @UCLAFSPH.

The senseless act of violence in Tulsa strikes at the heart of our organization. Dr. Preston Phillips became an AOA fellow in 2006 and has served as a member of the Own The Bone Steering Committee. His dedication to patient care and service to orthopaedics was exemplary.

Pediatrician here. I want people to know that death by firearm is not rare in kids. In fact, it has been the #1 cause death in this age group since 2020. In 2020 alone, 4300 children died from firearms. That’s equivalent to one Boeing 747 plane crash every month for 9 months.

Biden addressing the shooting in Uvalde: “Don't tell me we can't have an impact on this carnage. . . What in god's name do you need an assault weapon for except to kill someone? Deer aren't running through the forest with kevlar vests on for god's sake. It's just sick."

I wonder if patients know that sometimes we wake up at 4am and think of them and then can’t go back to sleep bc we are worrying if they’re ok.

Have been intermittently struck with the worry that my pregnancy and maternity leave have made me incredibly unproductive as a resident. This is your reminder (and mine) that that is wild and productivity in academics isn’t the marker of your worth as a doc #CheeksByMama
