Who's the best surgeon in town?
The best hands? The best judgment?
These are my thoughts. It's a 5-minute time commitment, and I hope you find it helpful/interesting.
I'm eager to hear your perspectives as well, as it's difficult to see how others judge your abilities.

Today I told two patients with metastatic colorectal cancer I have to postpone their liver resections next week. One broke down and cried into her arms. I feel like I failed them. Please, please get vaccinated and wear a mask to stay out of the hospital.

Just registered— great way to help future vaccine recipients know what to expect. Only took 2 minutes
For all the frontline providers who #gottheirshot please consider registering at vsafe.cdc.gov for a daily symptom check. Help contribute more data to ensure our patients they are safe when it’s their turn! Took me less than 30 sec.

Ovarian tissue cryopreservation, ovarian transposition, and egg harvesting are all important parts of comprehensive cancer care. @NMGynecology @karagoldmanMD @LurieCancer
Fecundity is often overlooked by adult surgeons & we can do better w/ our increasingly younger colorectal cancer patient population who require pelvic radiotherapy. We have had luck in select cases with pre-op ovarian transposition with @EmmaBarberMD

As our friends and colleagues brave the font lines, we must also get ready for a series of aftershocks. It's very hard to plan this far ahead while we're in survival mode. We must prepare early and strategize our response to the collateral damage of #COVID19

“It is already clear that there is not a second to lose.” In a letter today from @AACI_Cancer, directors of 97 leading cancer centers urged President Trump to marshall the power of U.S. manufacturing to address the #COVID-19 pandemic. bit.ly/2UekBnA #coronavirus – at Chicago, IL

And never before has been any suggestion that radical #hysterectomy as opposed to Piver 1 infers a survival benefit in #endometrial #cancer. All patients will receive radiation treatment anyway.
