The impact of #GunViolence on Healthcare workers is real. Dr. Benjamin Mauck, an orthopedic surgeon was murdered today. Thinking of his family, friends, and colleagues like @MemphisFisch. Let’s make sure we #HonorWithAction @ThisIsOurLane fox13memphis.com/news/orthop…

I’m sorry but unfortunately, this is a pervasive issue. I was at an editorial board meeting for a journal a few years back and the HPB and surgical oncology crowd I sat with made disparaging remarks about acute care surgeons throughout dinner (yes, right in front of me 😒).

No benefit and a statistically/ clinically significant increase in thromboembolic events, which is concerning for it potentially causing more harm. 😬

🧵regarding the terminology of some common suture needle types. This is a revised version of a 🧵I did several months ago (I’ve been on vacation 😎, and it’ll be a bit untiI I have new material). This is the ubiquitous SH needle we all know. But what does SH stand for? (1/ )

Today’s surgery rounds consisted of a very educational discussion on skin care amongst MDs, APPs, and RNs… and now I need to get my regiment updated and upgraded. Also, apparently there are things I should have already known and been doing 🫣 #alwayslearning

This thread is amazing.

As I stroll on TikTok, I keep seeing parents video their children reacting to The Little Mermaid trailer. So instead of focusing so much on the negative, I thought I’d show a thread of the little black kids who are excited to see their favorite princess look like them.

We had one of these/ was personally affected. It took multiple women complaining for something to happen.

TW: SH When I was an intern in July, I was sexually harassed by an attending. He was in his 70s and asked me all kinds of intrusive questions, made unwelcome and unprofessional contact (touching my ID, for ex) & tried to look down the v neck of my hospital-issued scrubs. (1/x)
