I won’t admit where I got this quote, but in light of the recent debate: “Don’t curse the darkness, light a candle.” #getoutandvote #shunnotthestruggle

It never ceases to amaze me how selfless some patients can be at the expense of their own health.

The words of a prior attending come to mind, “you’ve got to take care of yourself to take care of others.” Not sure if it means anything to the patient but it means a lot to me when I’m caring for them.

The care you provide to your patient extends so much further than that individual. You are often caring for a family when you treat a parent/spouse/grandparent etc. remember this and always provide the best care possible.
First day attending on wards tomorrow! Looking forward to direct patient care and continuing the fight against imposter syndrome. The first step is naming it, and the second step is conquering it.

So much focus on treatments and vaccines for #COVID19 but the most effective intervention is voting this November

John Lewis wrote an opinion piece to the @nytimes for publishing after his death. We all get into medicine to help our patients, but let's use our voice to help them outside of the clinics and hospitals. Let's do John Lewis proud!
