I wrote a whole paper in it. More a specialty is dishonest about their operating time the more RVUs they get.

🧵regarding the 'suture ligature' or 'stick tie', or whatever you call it in your part of the world.
Here, I'll use my long-suffering chickens to show 3 different methods for doing a 'suture ligature', and we'll go over a couple of pointers that apply to all of them.

Dr Horowitz presenting important data from GOG 279 on the role of #gemcitabine in vulvar SCC. Interesting use of radiosensitizing characteristics of #gemcitabine in a disease traditionally treated with a disfiguring and functionally debilitating dz. #SGOMtg #sgo2023

Navy seal: "Training did not select for the strongest and fastest… instead those that in their worst moments found it within themselves to help a fellow seal."

A non-medical friend recently asked me to describe clinic. I told her to imagine you have 20 meetings in a day, half of them new clients with urgent needs. Each requires your best self. You are late for at least 10 of them. You must prepare a report and deliverables for each one.

“Did residency prepare you for the sleep deprivation of parenthood?”
Honestly? No.
Parenthood was way worse. Q1 24 hr call. And completely unpredictable. And you still have your day job.
But my wife is my hero.

1/ The first medical #oncology visit for a patient with a new #cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming to navigate.
I’ve worked with @cancerGRACE & patient advocates to create a ☝🏽page (✌🏽sided) patient guide to the initial medical oncology visit, offered both in English & Spanish.
