We have 2,000 trans and gender-diverse people on our clinic's wait list. If funding cuts shut us down, where will they go? torontolife.com/city/my-clin…

We can't make progress on bias when ppl are only prepared to acknowledge it as a general thing, but immediately generate excuses when it's brought up in individual cases/incidents.

💔 This is devastating to witness — if this family can’t establish a long-term relationship with another doc, this gentleman will fall through the cracks.
This goes beyond prescription renewals to the heart of caring for complex patients… which is the heart of family medicine.
This ad in Saturday’s @timescolonist newspaper is quite something. An urgent plea — for a doctor to renew prescriptions for her 82 year old husband. #bcpoli.

I was just asked to be on The National to discuss Roe and abortion...and then I found out it would be a panel with a "pro-life/anti-abortion" voice. I am livid and sent this reply. I couldn't care less if this means I will not be asked back to the CBC. It needed to be said.

Immensely proud to witness @DGlaucomflecken deliver the commencement address at @YaleMed today. Knocked it out of the park with a message on humor, healing, and humanity in medicine. Who would’ve known where a silly med satire hobby and 3 life-and-death experiences would take us. – at New Haven, CT

KINDNESS ALERT:
This is Dr. David MacMillan. He won the 2021 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
How is he using his prize money?
By giving it to students who can't afford to go to university so they can get their degrees.
Well done, Professor. 👏🏼

Congratulations to Dr. Cook, whose passionate advocacy for critical-care patients has transformed how patients are treated around the world.

Hey #MedTwitter … Have you #gifted or #amplified today? Show some love and support for #BIPOCinMedicine folx putting themselves out there on #MedGradWishList2022 #MGWL22 #MGWL2022.

The innocent victims of another senseless war. 😢
At Ukraine’s largest children’s hospital, this 5 yr old boy is one of dozens of youngsters who can’t evacuate Kyiv- or this facility. His kidneys don’t function without 6 treatments a day… so he’ll remain in hospital despite nearby shelling and rocket attacks. @9NewsAUS

On #December6 we reflect on those who have experienced gender-based violence & those who we have lost to it. Violence is a daily reality for many women & girls, we must take action to challenge the culture that allows it to thrive. Gender-based violence is never okay. #16Days

This saddens me.
For every teen who is going to get sick.
For every parent who is going to watch their child struggle to breathe.
THIS IS PREVENTABLE.
Tennessee officials are backing off efforts to vaccinate teens against COVID-19 amid pressure from Republican lawmakers, per internal emails. The health dept also deleted a pro-vaccine Facebook post and digital flyer that featured teens. Scoop from me. tennessean.com/story/news/he…

Other things that are no guarantee of progress:
1. Female leaders (esp those without equity mandate/expertise)
2. Equity statements/performative equity measures
3.DEI/women's committees.
We've had a lot of 1-3 in medicine and mostly no progress. #genderpaygap

I wrote this article for my own catharsis. I never expected it to be peer reviewed. When @NEJM accepted it, I experienced my first panic attack. 1/

Medicine is the only profession where when the canary in the coal mine dies, leaders just say:
"Why can't we find more resilient canaries?"

I'm at a real loss for expression
My sadness for grieving communities is eclipsed by the devastation felt by the family and young boy fighting for his life. My prayers for those in mourning.
Let's work to be a Canada that will always choose love over hate. Unity over division.
