Happen to be in the East Bay over the next few weekends?Come to Orinda to a charming outdoor amphitheater to see me in “It Runs in the Family,” a 1980s British farce mounted by orsvp.org.I play a pompous neurologist at the center of the hijinks. It’s fun, I promise!

This kind of innovation results when an entire system embraces the importance of social context in medical care #SocialEM. Bravo @HGHED !! “ContraceptED”: A Multidisciplinary Framework for Emergency Department-Initiated Contraception - goo.gl/scholar/gt7i3u #ScholarAlerts
