Physicians @AmerMedicalAssn @AmerUrological are working hard to make sure that we have a health system that works for everyone. We the people deserve/desire high quality care. The AMA during the house of delegates meeting pushed for sound health care policy.

As a physician, I believe that we must advocate for our profession and our patients. #AUA23, #AMA #membersmovemedicine We must stand together as brothers and sisters so that we don’t perish as fool.

I am at the International Conference on Physician Health 2022 #ICPH22. What a meeting!!! Dr. Paul Dechant’s Keynote was amazing to quote “The problem with burnout is the workplace”. Our AMA is working for us to heal the workplace. #OurAMA #fightingfordocs

Today, for our nation’s physicians who have bravely responded to a historic call without hesitation, we are a focused, science-based, nimble, influential, and powerful ally. We will always have doctors’ and patients’ backs.

Yelling is not acceptable. Why are so call healthcare professionals allowed to behave in a hospital in ways that would result in being arrested if done in public? – at Buffalo, NY
An (ED) attending just yelled at me for calling a retrograde urethrogram a “RUG”... In other, not so unrelated, news... 7 more shifts left in residency... and I can’t wait 👀 #ByeFelicia #dontbethatguy

20yrs ago the Candidate Association (now RAS) of #ACS passed the Family Policy that included 12 weeks of leave for surgical residents. Surgeon know that 6 weeks is not enough.#AMA – at Breckenridge, CO
This Duke policy is only for hospital and school of medicine staff for the time being. Most if not all physicians (and ?APPs) are employed by a separate entity and thus this leave policy does not apply to them.
This is a question that we must ask ourselves daily. Thank you for reminding me to do so. – at Buffalo, NY
