For crying out loud people… PLEASE stop putting qualifiers such as ‘mild’ when diagnosing concussions. Or severe or whatever adjective you feel compelled to add. Please, please stop. Concussed or not. That’s good enough.

Nothing frustrates this doctor more when evaluating concussions of hearing kids continuing to play through them. It’s happening more often again these last few years. This isn’t good. And the majority are well aware they are playing through it. We need to do better.

Can be easy to cherry pick statistics to fit a narrative or highlight what may catch the eye of mainstream media outlets. Most of us have done it at one time or another. Thanks @christinebaugh for this thread. Reviewing ALL the information matters. The details matter.

This is very unfortunate. Concussion North was a flagship for inter-professional concussion care in Canada. Thank you @sbjockdoc for your support and guidance. It will be exciting to see what the next chapter has in store.

This is an absolute loss to the province-I have thoroughly enjoyed collaborating with @sbjockdoc and @concussionnorth in caring for people who have sustained #concussions. There was nothing like what @concussionnorth built and offered. Thank you and I hope to work with you again!
