If you're touched by the Avery family's story - whose 2 young children were diagnosed with brain tumors weeks apart - I encourage you to consider donating to their GoFundMe page: bit.ly/2IERAs7. You can read their story in the link from my last post.

I recently operated on two young siblings who were diagnosed with the same type of brain tumor, just weeks apart. I was able to remove their tumors fully, and now they begin their journey of treatment and recovery. The @latimes shared their story: lat.ms/2tKdQLP.

As healthcare grows more complex and reimbursements go down, inefficiencies like these begin to show. We see more patients simultaneously than we ever have before. It's more important now to work hand-in-hand with the patient when prescribing care. x.com/Atul_Gawande/status/96…

Dr Bernard Lown, Nobel Prize winner and hospital patient at 96, in revolt: "Healing is replaced with treating, caring is supplanted by managing." Should he be allowed to eat? Has anyone asked him? The magnificent story from the intern on his medical team. nytimes.com/2018/02/24/opini…
