A privilege and pleasure to co-direct this course with my friend and amazing colleague @JillGaidosMD. The fellows at @AmCollegeGastro NACGF this year were amazing! Learned from and with all of them.
The @AmCollegeGastro #NACGF meeting was arguably one of the best conferences for me! It was inspiring & humbling ! Today, I am SO EXCITED that our @UMN_GI Fellow @mabdallahmd gets to be 1 of the 25 super⭐️ #Fellows who gets to have this experience ! Throwback to #NACGF2019

Hard to hold back 🥲hearing @MarkPochapin give final comments at his last @AmCollegeGastro #BoardOfTrustees meeting at #ACG2022. At the start of #COVID19 pandemic, he was the ideal leader for #ACG, serving as a #beacon to all members. T/Y #DrPochapin!🤗 #AuthenticLeadership
