Friendly reminder to all programs reviewing applications: ALL medical schools in Puerto Rico are LCME accredited. Puertorrican students are highly competent and all should be given a chance. BTW, we are also US citizens!

I will not completely leave this platform, yet, but I’ll be using the one in the sky more. @radicito.bsky.social
Hope to find you all there.
Never think you are not good enough…let your light shine through. We are confused, concerned, but never give up. Let’s continue working together to improve our world, our lives and the future for our children.

Hoy salgan a votar con calma, convicción, esperanza y amor. De eso se trata, del amor por Puerto Rico.
🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻Jason Kelce!!! Mama Kelce raised the boys right!
While personally, I didn't think Jason Kelce needed to apologize... this was a powerful way to address it, "chose to greet hate with hate. (And that was wrong)"
We are all human and will always protect our families
Philly loves you @JasonKelce

President John F. Kennedy wrote a beautiful speech that he never delivered. Tragically, he was assassinated earlier that day. These words are resonating across the decades to our time and place.
"For this is a time for courage and a time for challenge. Neither conformity nor complacency will do. Neither the fanatics nor the faint-hearted are needed. And our duty as a party is not to our party alone, but to the Nation, and, indeed, to all mankind. Our duty is not merely the preservation of political power but the preservation of peace and freedom.
So let us not be petty when our cause is so great. Let us not quarrel amongst ourselves when our Nation’s future is at stake. Let us stand together with renewed confidence in our cause–united in our heritage of the past and our hopes for the future — and determined that this land we love shall lead all mankind into new frontiers of peace and abundance." - President John F Kennedy, undelivered speech to Democratic Party of Texas, 11/22/63
Yesterday we saw Conclave. I read the book last week. BOTH have left me speechless. Amazing book, incredible actors, beautiful cinematography and the book adaptation I honestly think was flawless. @conclavethefilm

Although I've only been here four years, I feel accepted by everyone, even though my English isn't perfect and it's been difficult to get a good job. newsweek.com/i-lost-everythi…

Here I am again!
I refuse to stay quiet 🤐
Hoping that by sharing my experience I can inspire others or, better yet, avoid other minorities from going through similar experiences
I almost quit, I’m glad I didn’t
Happy #IMGWeek! 🇵🇷 Thank you @COlazagasti for sharing your experience as a medical graduate from Puerto Rico and what the transition was like moving to the U.S. to practice #oncology.
