Thanks for joining us at #ARM20. Remember that participants can access all prerecorded hours of content through May 2021! academyhealth.org/events/sit…
The #MedBikini discussion highlights a longstanding double standard for #WomenInMedicine about what is considered professional dress.

What docs wear outside of work is their own business.

I made the decision to wear my natural hair in my professional pictures because it represents my most authentic self. I hope to attract a program that truly values all of me and what I have to offer.💁🏽♀️✨#BlackWomeninMedicine

When I was a resident, Dr. Goldfrank would ask us the same question on every patient we saw:
"What is the lesion in the healthcare system that brought this patient to us today?"
It was a challenge to look deeper into the root cause of emergencies
I keep thinking how in the ER when someone rolls in gasping "I can't breathe, I can't breathe" we all jump to our feet and run to assess and help them. It's #1 and 2 of our "ABC's" - Airway, Breathing, Circulation - that comes before any other concern.
