Oh you’re going to a teaching hospital in July? Well get ready… for the most compassionate care from extremely empathetic interns along with their vigilant supervising attendings. Hope you like open ended questions and doctors listening to you bc you’re gonna drown in it.

At times it can be really hard to diagnose congestive hepatopathy in patients. #POCUS may help and circumvent a liver biopsy. Congrats to Dr. Dollar and Dr. Nathanson! @SanAntonioVAMC @UTHealthHospMed @ankursegon #SHMConverge23

I had the pleasure of honoring a @uthsaim resident Dr. Sylvia Keiser with a commemorative coin for “her knowledgeable presence, her caring, and her ability to speak to patients in layman’s language.” Residents provide excellent Veteran care here @SanAntonioVAMC! #VAHPEWeek

2/ From the CHEST Fellow’s Course, if you have a difficult airway and are asking for a supraglottic airway you should also be calling for help in case you need a surgical airway.
