This week, Iām honored to share a guest Field Notes essay from Dr. Unwanaobong Nseyo, whose friendship and sisterhood have been with me for almost a decade now. Some lessons are easier to carry when someone carries them with you. yahirsantiagolastramd.com/fiā¦

I know everyone is very busy. But it is simply normal to do zero work up while waiting for the specialist? It can be a minute to get into see me. Use a fucking AI to help you and order some basic shit in the mean time. Fuck.
If Iām sending to cards for instance and I think it could be heart failure I make sure they have an echo to look at.
I donāt know what is being trained into anyone any longer. It all could be better.

.@YSL_MD, @UCSD_Urology, provides a clear framework for recognizing and managing pelvic organ prolapse in clinical practice.

When you throw your all into a process, that process becomes an expression of your very essence. Musicians, coaches, teachers, physicians, entrepreneurs, writers, parents, and of course athletes all know this to be true. It's an incredible feeling. bradstulberg.substack.com/exā¦

Very grateful to have received a scholarship to attend this conference @NM_Urology. Looking forward to learning from @SocietyGURS experts as I progress in my residency training & ponder fellowship - especially while I'm starting to get more involved in robotic surgery as a PGY3!
Registration is still open for the 5th annual Advances in Genitourinary Robotic Reconstruction Course, led by Ziho Lee, MD (@ZLeeGU)! š¤
This is a no-cost course for those interested in complex robotic reconstruction. We are looking forward to sharing data, novel techniques, tips and tricks with Daniel Eun, MD (@md_eun), Lee Zhao, MD (@lee_c_zhao), and Jill Buckley, MD (@JillC_Buckley)!
Registration deadline is July 5: forms.office.com/Pages/Respoā¦

There are parts of academic medicine and surgical life that rarely make it into formal teaching.
I created Field Notes to write about that hidden curriculum and share with you!

Excited for the @sexmedresearch team to share our most recent research in female sexual dysfunction this weekend at the @SMSNA_ORG #SMSNA25 Annual Fall Scientific Meeting in Grapevine, Texas. Hope to connect and learn about all the new innovations in sex med!

As a urologist, I value seeing our colleagues in health policy. But Dr. Christineās views on abortion and gender-affirming care donāt reflect my values or our fieldās inclusive mission. Advocacy should protect, not restrict, patientsā rights and access to care.
š We are proud to recognize Dr. Brian Christine, a long-standing AUA member and advocate for men's health, on his confirmation as Assistant Secretary for Health at HHS last night. His dedication to urology and public service reflects the values of our specialty, and weāre excited to see a fellow urologist helping shape national health policy!
