📢 Congress must act!
Specialty physicians are facing unsustainable Medicare cuts — a 33% payment drop since 2001 when adjusted for inflation. It's time to stabilize physician payments and support value-based care. We’re on the Hill with @SpecialtyDocs for the #ASMFlyIn today to support the Medicare Patient Access and Practice Stabilization Act (H.R. 879/S. 1640)!
🩺 Protect independent practices
📉 Stop year-to-year payment cuts
💡 Encourage participation in value-based models
👉 Urge your legislators to cosponsor today. sirweb.org/advocacy/action-c…

The @AARP bulletin today asks, “Where have all the doctors gone?” as more patients find themselves seeing PAs and NPs instead of medical doctors. I believe it’s no accident—policies are pushing out physicians to cut costs, leaving patients with fewer advocates and more confusion.

There’s a reason docs are walking — if not running — away from #medicine . Imagine doing 10-20 yrs of education AFTER high school, studying hard to be at top of your class, & then calling it quits within a few yrs of finishing all that education. It’s really a loss to society.

The @Saudi2034bid is inspiring so many young footballers with the promise of #GrowingTogether and it was a pleasure to meet some of those kids who are dreaming of welcoming the world to Saudi Arabia in 2034. 🏆

Andrew Crummy, MD died today. Developer of DSA, founding member and president of @SIRspecialists, beloved teacher, and author of the first radiology text I owned. He was a giant who bequeathed interventional radiologists of today an incredible specialty and bright future. RIP.

1/3 20 yo M construction worker referred by #urology for 1 yr h/o left testicular pain, back pain, & urinary freq. No varicocele/torsion. Standing reflux US neg. Must be cautious when considering NIVL stent in young adult d/t long-term uncertainty w/stents. #irad @SIRspecialists
Origin of internal iliac nicely spared. Agree, easy to place a stent, never removed one!! Think twice
3/3 Abre stent placed. Pain resolved within 3 weeks & pt back to work. No matter the yrs of experience, I still don't like stenting young adults but sometimes it's needed & careful pt selection is important. #TheVEINS24 #VIVA24 @OEISociety @myAVLS @MDTVascular

It was an honor to have you, terrific lectures and looking forward to more trans-pacific collaborations @uclaVIR @Warren_IR 🙏
Was grateful to be asked to present at the @uclaVIR Grand Rounds today. What better topic to discuss than #trauma!
It was great to speak to the residents regarding Damage Control IR (DCIR) which is an important concept in co-ordinated trauma team care. Being my favourite topic, it was fantastic to be able to discuss the current state of splenic artery #embolization at the main Grand Round, including the role of prophylactic embolisation and future immune function.
Thanks to @JonnyMoriarty for inviting me and to @AdamPlotnik for the kind introduction!

Prostatic artery embolization (PAE) is a game-changer for men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)! A minimally invasive procedure that reduces prostate size, improves urinary symptoms, can promote a faster recovery compared to traditional surgery. #BPH #MenHealth #PAE #ProstateHealth #MedicalInnovation
