My most socialist position is that all NFL, NBA, and MLB playoff games should be on network TV - kids whose parents can’t afford or don’t have streaming services should still be able to watch

I should’ve negotiated a NIL deal with @EAST_TRAUMA. That’s definitely my image and likeness. 😉 But, seriously. Sign up for the amazing EAST #SurgMentoring program.

Always great talking to the surgeons responsible for founding EAST 40 years ago. I hope we have followed you ideas and embody the vision “To be the premier organization for early and mid-career surgeons.” Check out my selfie with them, Bill Schwab, Nicole Fox, and Mayur Patel.

Video review in the trauma bay show that we are very bad at enacting trauma informed care. We must do better. Great talk at @EAST_TRAUMA #EAST2026

I would start first with the debate about whether we have the statistical power to meaningfully measure surgeon-specific outcomes—most often we do not. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…
Important topic at @hopkinssurgery Grand Rounds resident debate. “Should Health Systems Be Required to Publicly Report Procedure-Specific Outcomes at the Individual Surgeon Level?” @jessicamruck vs. Dane Paneitz w/ Mohammed Aref moderating. #Transparency #PublicReporting

People reposting this is wild 🤣
Reading a medical chart. Same errors repeated over and over again by people relying on copy/paste. Yes it's fast and yes it's easy. But it's lazy, obvious, and it makes for a shitty note. Please stop doing this. I said what I said.

Truly a collaborative effort from 40 centers across the country and many acute care surgeons who want to provide high-quality patient care. Looking forward to the discussion - ~70% of centers suggest the 'right patient' census was less than their current census

How many patients on the trauma service is too many? How many patients can a single surgeon see? What about when they have resident/APP support? ICU patients? See what the current national opinion is from an EAST multicenter survey by Wilson et al: bit.ly/4i6YCbz

In the 1500s a man could own this for zero money down and have huge tracts of land his children could play in, while still living a life of leisure and overseeing a small workforce in his spare time. RETVRN!

At what point should board certification supersede BLS/ACLS/PALS renewal cycle? The practice of medicine is devolving to a state of constant testing @SCCM @American_Heart @AmBdSurg #MedTwitter

Totally agree - internally/externally a shift is not a shift is not a shift. Important work by KU Trauma being presented @EAST_TRAUMA in 2026 using NASATLX. Hopefully our related study on patient ratios just accepted to @TSACO_AAST will further advance this important discussion

Unhelmeted patients incurred more severe injuries and were more likely to be admitted and require ICU-level care. journals.lww.com/journalacs/…
