I agree nutrition needs to be taught more but why put the onus on docs to relay that info to the public? We learn what smoking does to the body and tell patients to stop but they still smoke. Why not teach nutrition to everyone in elementary, middle and high school?
.@EDSecMcMahon and I announced that, starting this fall, 53 medical schools across 31 states will deliver at least 40 hours of nutrition education during undergraduate medical training. This landmark reform will transform medical education, equip future physicians to prevent and treat chronic disease, and advance @POTUS’s commitment to end the chronic disease epidemic.

Hiring for another me at VA Boston! 😊 Would love an “all things prostate” partner. Join 5 other full time urologists, two residency programs with 4 residents on service at all times, and be part of the Boston magic. #SoBPD

Only 23% of female urologists have formal lactation policies at work, with 57% satisfied. Surgeons lack adequate lactation resources despite laws. Clear lactation policies are urgently needed. tinyurl.com/25vysj62
