A monumental loss. I so vividly remember working with Dr Canning on an away SubI… so incredibly engaging and a deeply kind soul. Made me feel like a valued member of the OR as a visiting med student. Will strive to practice with his level of warmth and dedication to his team.
Still cannot believe this is real One of the greatest humans / physicians I have had the privilege to know RIP, Doug Canning — tnx for being amazing

I think back to how after each case, Dr. Canning would thank every person in the OR one by one, even me as a med student. I aspire to have the same level of compassion and respect in my career as he did every single day. My heart goes out to his family, friends, and the CHOP team

We lost a friend, mentor, and colleague yesterday. How tragic and sad for so many. Our hearts go out to the Canning family, the CHOP family, and everyone whose lives Doug has made better for his devotion to humankind. Rest In Peace, brother.

I journal every single morning for at least 30 minutes. I've been doing this since 2010. But over the years, I've learned you can (very easily) overcomplicate the act of journaling. Which is why now I only use 4 prompts: 🧵👇

I read a book that blew my mind a little and I can’t stop telling people about it. It explains why so many people dedicate their lives to achieving things that make them miserable. This might sound crazy, but an unseen force is pushing you towards empty and unfulfilling goals…
