As I do my internal medicine recertification prep, special shout out to @TAMUmedicine for giving me an amazing medical education. The best med school experience I could have ever imagined!

I just realized something. People outside of medicine struggle with "cooperative" platforms like @SlackHQ because it's a never-ending cycle of distraction. Turns out that chat, constant messaging and instant results within @HeyEpic is medicine's version of this.

It’s time for a new #CHESTSEEK Challenge! Read the question, select your answer in the poll, and check back on Monday, June 8, to see the correct answer. Can’t wait? Submit your response now to reveal the answer now: hubs.la/Q04k8YLg0 #CysticFibrosis #CF

Just a reminder that we do this job for patients. Patients patients patients. And sometimes cookies

Update from my colonoscopy yesterday: Procedure went smoothly! The prep wasn’t bad - pro tip: a clear liquid diet the day before (eg broth, apple juice, clear Jell-O) makes it much easier. And butt wipes (trust me). Found one polyp, which was removed. Awaiting biopsy results, but that’s exactly why we screen: early detection saves lives. DYK: Colonoscopies can⬇️ colorectal cancer risk by 69% and deaths bu 88% by catching and removing precancerous polyps early! If you’re 45 , talk to your doctor about screening. Don’t wait - peace of mind is worth it!

An elderly woman with history of #bronchiectasis and recurrent exacerbations was started on a new therapy, which has been helping significantly. Within 6 months, however, she complained of new onset, significant hair loss (see below). What do you think caused this and what should we do next? @ProfJDChalmers @AlibertiStefano @PCDFoundation @williamkellymd

It is my complete and absolute pleasure to destroy my peers during medication Peer-to-peer calls. I will run you over with the data!

Thank you so much to @doximity for improving my workplace quality of life. The Scribe function in the Doximity app is pure gold. I can focus on what my patients are saying more so than ever, and all the stuff we talk about is captured, even things that are subtle, yet important!

Thank you to Drs. Sunjay Devarjaran & Tara Barto for leading the BCM Lung Institute #CysticFibrosis efforts this weekend to raise awareness and resources for research to make a difference!

Via a 3 criterion referral method, only 30% of new #CysticFibrosis diagnoses in India carried one F508del mutation. Compare that to ~85% in the US! Genetic diversity, ya'll. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… @CF_Foundation @cfvww1 @cftrust @cysticfibrosis @CFCanada @CFRI_CureCF

We need to find alternatives to the word "feedback" in medical education. It's overused and starting to feel stale. What are your favorite terms? @MedEd_Journal @MedEdPORTAL
