We need to do the same @GovPritzker in Illinois. How do we make this happen?

Still can't get over the @LmsaNational conference last weekend🤩 Hispanic med & pre-med students, resident physicians, organizational leaders, & more gathered to celebrate the goal of championing a diverse healthcare workforce that supports Hispanics in the United States!💃

Grateful for MY hospital— Valley Children’s Hospital to recognize the grassroots work for creating National Latino Physician Day! As we enter into the third year of this nationwide effort, I am grateful for having support to be able to do this work as a full time pediatric hand surgeon. A lot this support also comes from my team within Plastic Surgery and our Hand Surgery teams. The other vital area of support is from my wife Ashley! It was nice to have my family at the event earlier this week — the kids loved being secretive to surprise me and also the desserts they got at the end 😂 Medical staff champion in the community 2024, Board of trustees meritorious service award! #Nationallatinophysicianday #nationallatinaphysicianday #nationallatinxphysicianday #latinomedicine #latinoexcellence #nlpd2024 #doctorshortagecrisis #physicianshortagecrisis

I can’t wait to celebrate #NationalLatinoPhysicianDay for the third year! I am obsessed with my new hat! It makes me think of the cariño (care) my patients use in their voice when they call me that- La Doctora. #necesitamosmas
