Dear #Interns of 2024- Welcome to the noblest of professions. You are one of us now. It’s great pressure and stress- the world we’re responsible for in the healing arts. It’s simultaneously a great honor. My advice? 1. Listen closely to our patients. Hear them- they’ll tell you what you need to know. 2. Ask for help. NEVER worry alone. 3. Above all, remember your “why” for choosing this difficult route- it is worth it no matter the cynicism that you may find yourself surrounded by in the years ahead. All of your attendings vividly remember our first day, too. #MedTwitter

🚨🧵AMA survey indicates prior authorization (PA) wreaks havoc on patient care Access to patient-centered care continues to suffer as health insurers ❗️Impose PA barriers on necessary care ❗️Substitute corporate policy for clinical decisions that are in patients’ best interest

This is Fred Smalls. He just graduated from Georgetown High School at 106 years old. Listen to the roar of the crowd. You're never too old.

Jim Jordan was involved in Trump's conspiracy to steal the election and seize power; he urged that Pence refuse to count lawful electoral votes. If Rs nominate Jordan to be Speaker, they will be abandoning the Constitution. They’ll lose the House majority and they’ll deserve to.

Last month in Ft Worth as President of the #TMA, I very much enjoyed addressing the new First Year Medical students At Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine. Their unbridled enthusiasm was infectious!

I worked last night, on the eve of July 1. Our new interns were in the ED, orienting, and I kind of forget how their presence brings such an air of excitement every year. It reminds me of all the “firsts” that have that special spark (but quickly become dulled by routine in life): first date with the person that becomes your spouse, first day of a new school with classrooms full of new potential friends, firsts of baby as you experience the moment a new connection makes in their little minds… First day, month, year of residency very much have that feeling. Enjoy every minute of it—for both the new interns and the senior residents/faculty/staff/patients/etc. that get to be a part of it. Happy July 1, y’all! #medtwitter
