The cardiology workforce is stretched and some are burning out, AI may take over, and EP/cath labs are moving to strip malls. What is happening ? I had a great discussion w @BeckersHR on some thoughts on the future of cardiology . #Cardiology #MedTwitter #AIinHealthcare #ASC

Many times the reaction by everyone is “we must do more” - but there are consequences to any intervention. Careful consideration is advised. Great reminder by Dr Kim @ACCinTouch

Progress on banning physician non-competes in Indiana! @Cardiology @inacc @SrihariNaiduMD @himavidula @drdavemd @sxz110 "'When a physician tries to negotiate a noncompete clause, the answer is take it or leave the state,' he said. indystar.com/story/news/poli…

Dr Anthony DeMaria great presentation on age in CV medicine. Admits he is “chronically challenged” but so what? 70 is new 50! Cognitive testing discriminatory and has no evidence representative of competence. #ACC25 @ACCinTouch

The always inspiring @drtravisbatts speaks at a Federal Cardiology meeting. We have challenges but we are up to the task. Defend our TIRF (spelled correctly) #ACC25 @ACCinTouch

This is why they call it the ENGAGE stage. Drs Andrea Elliott and Ben Keninsberg discuss cardiac arrest 👮 in an entertaining fashion. #ACC25 @ACCinTouch
