To all the new interns starting next month, LEAN ON YOUR SENIORS! We are here to help, guide, and encourage you. The learning curve will be rough so never be afraid to ask for help. There are NO stupid questions ☺️

Make no mistake, these new intern class photos represent each residency programs commitment to diversity. A residency program can no longer make the argument we can't attract "qualified" Black applicants or applicants of color when it's obvious that other programs are successful.

I’ve decided that next year I’m hiring someone to do my taxes for me. This whole living in one state and working in another makes taxes confusing

The ACGME just released new program requirements for pediatrics - some of which may significantly change the way we train future pediatricians.
So who wins - and who loses - under the new requirements?
You guessed it - it’s time to break it down, Winners & Losers™️ style.

2 more peds #flu deaths this week. We've lost 7 so far--about one death per week. Please, #VaccinateYourKids. It can literally save their life. It's ugly out there:

Since many people are seeing this…I’ll add this for my medical friends:
Early in COVID Children’s hospitals made huge changes to care for adults in order to assist with the incredible surge. We need the same creativity, flexibility and bravery from our adult hospitals now.

Just finished an overnight shift in the peds emergency department.
Whatever you are imagining when you hear the news about RSV, and increased viral illnesses, and high pediatric volumes…it’s 1000 times worse.
