We need thoughtful, forward-thinking surgeons like @wandering_gu at the ASCO leadership table, bringing the surgical perspective to how we advance multidisciplinary cancer care.
Todd Morgan is an exceptional surgeon and researcher, and someone I have tremendous respect for.

This is pretty big news from @UroOncJT and co @JUrology in press: MPS2 looks to be the first liquid biomarker offering real utility in the #activesurveillance setting for #prostatecancer. Much better NPV for upgrading than mpMRI - and less expensive! (in the US, anyway)

Don't take my word for it.
Listen to Dr. Ariana Smith organically mention how @WellPrept makes clinic conversations better.
Curious? My DMs are open.

Marc Cuban for president
If we fined insurers and providers $100 every time they over-billed, incorrectly denied care or misrepresented any amount of patient out of pocket, we could pay of the national debt
They play on the fear and information asymmetry that exists in healthcare
Break them up. Make them divest non insurance companies. And when we are done with the insurance companies , we go to the hospitals and then to the pharma wholesalers. Break em up. Make the markets efficient again.

📉 Transperineal prostate biopsy has a <1% infection risk, significantly lower than transrectal. New evidence suggests antibiotic prophylaxis may not be needed in many transperineal cases. A step forward for antimicrobial stewardship.
