I will never minimize the plight of another person or demographic, but I will say this was in INCREDIBLY challenging week to be a black male surgeon!😔 Still so far to go. #STS2023 #TyreNicholsVideo #prayers4Tyre #inclusiveexcellence @SocietyofBAS

Today @DrVickersUAB finished his last case @UABSurgery - to say he will be missed is quite the understatement.

In true #NationalKidneyMonth spirit, 22 kidney donors make their way up Mount Kilimanjaro! They embody the bravery of all living donors by living life to the fullest. We wish you the best of luck on your journey 💙💚! @washingtonpost. #DonateLife washingtonpost.com/lifestyle…

A group of organ donors is climbing Mount Kilimanjaro this week. They each have one kidney.

“Most of us actually became healthier after we donated,” Tracey Hulick said. “We pay more attention to our diets, and we get more exercise.”

His influence is immeasurable. I remember when he looked straight at me when I was just a 1st year med student and told me it didn’t matter what path I took in medicine—that we were all capable of having an impact. Thank you for everything you gave us, Dr. Farmer.
