Family Medicine Obstetrics is one of the keys to combating Black Maternal and Infant Mortality.
Collaborative efforts with OB, Pediatrics, Midwives, Doulas, and Lactation Consultants to offer truly wrap around care is how we are going to get desperately needed results.

"I am shocked and saddened at the lack of coordination surrounding vaccinations for front-line healthcare providers and staff who are not corporate healthcare affiliated."

Thank you @AHirschfeld5 for fighting to #Protect340b so our most vulnerable patients can still afford their medications!! chicagotribune.com/news/brea…

340b is crucial to providing care to patients who face various barriers to access, which includes more and more Americans in the context of COVID-19 and unemployment... we must fight to preserve access to this program. #protect340B
The #MedicationTherapyManagement Clinic at @UIHealth relies on #340B savings to help patients manage their medications and health conditions. We discuss the research demonstrating the clinic's value to its patients on 340B Insight. Listen: bit.ly/313wZtQ

It’s called #FamilyMedicine! A short list of the procedure I perform: vasectomy, circumcision, IUD, EMBx, skin bx, cyst removal, para, thora, all kinds of US MSK injections, Point-of-Care Ultrasound...many of my colleagues do C-sections, OMM, @aafp #FMRevolution
Can we have a field that incorporates medicine and surgery; what does one do if they’re passionate about both?!

This world is a lot right now. I’m currently in the “keep on my hair bonnet all day including to answer the front door” stage of mourning. I simply don’t have the energy to concel the full extent of my Blackness in front of white people.
And it feels good. #GeorgeFloydProtests

I remember the hope I felt when Obama became our president. Now Chicago is under curfew because of riots instigated by racial injustice. We have taken too many steps back. We need this country to have leaders who denounce racism and move us to a more hopeful future

The thing that the ppl who are critiquing the #Minneapolisprotests don’t get is that the protests are the result of a lifetime of black ppl being systemically murdered by the state, & then being denied justice, repeatedly & intentionally by the same state.

Folks, stop what you’re doing and listen to Madison, a very smart kindergartner from Springfield:
“Don’t go to parties. Don’t go to someone’s house... you’re supposed to be staying home... just make sure you stay inside most of the time.”
She gets an A+ in #SocialDistancing!
