Why do I operate on stage IV NSCLC? Yes, patient selection is critical. Yes, the cases can be technically quite challenging. But, sometimes we provide life-changing hope to patients. This privilege is the reason why I became a doctor. #lcsm @MDAndersonNews #oncsurgery @IASLC – at Bellaire, TX

IMHO Social media can help amplify your academic career. But it can never take the place of the needed work. As @JBMatthews has noted: “no substitute for substance” (At least I think @JBMatthews said that…😊) @SWexner @SurgJournal #MedTwitter – at Sandy, UT

There is a clear interest and need for CT surgery mentoring programs matching women with other women, enabling mentors to provide strategies for supporting and encouraging an underrepresented group in our field.

I am a CT surgeon, and I’m privileged to play an enormous role in the lives of all four of my children as well as those of my patients and their families. To be clear, women are wanted, needed, and can succeed in CTSurgery.
