Hi #medtwitter, my name is Tochi Ogbonna, I’m a rising M4 applying into Internal Medicine (maybe eventually GI😬) this year. Always looking to connect w/ potential mentors and co- applicants, particularly URiM! Excited to see what’s coming next! 👀#match2022 #blackexcellence

After two teens got into a fight in a New Jersey mall, video captured officers pinning the Black teen down on the floor and putting him in handcuffs while simply sitting the other teen on the couch. Gov. Phil Murphy said it shows “what appears to be racially disparate treatment."

A young Black woman slid in my DMs a month ago to inquire about internship opportunities but I did one better. Made her an offer today to join my company as a salaried employee (above what she asked for) w/health benefits & unlimited PTO. Here’s your sign to shoot your shot!

FAILURE IS NOT FINAL! A Thread about failing #STEP2 What I am about to disclose is VERY unpopular in medical training.

I really just have my rank list sitting there… uncertified. I should really do that… Soon. I feel more comfortable when it’s in limbo🙃

shout out to everybody who’s unlearning the old habits that won’t serve them in their next chapter of life. letting go is difficult, counterintuitive, and disorienting. it’s also worth it.

Match day is a bitter sweet affair. I wish the unmatched could see how concerned the PDs and mentors are about them. If you are still pursuing ophtho then check out the pre-residency fellowship listing: medicine.utah.edu/ophthalmol…

Yesterday, I was among the many applicants that didn’t match. It was a hard day. Today is a new day, and I’m ready to get back to work. The timeline changed, but the goal didn't. In that spirit, if anyone has any contacts in Urology research, my DMs are open. #UroMatch #AUAMatch
