🗣️A loud plea to #CardioTwitter #Cardiology: ❗️We have solid evidence showing that EGD before TEE is not beneficial for patients (and can lead to delays in care and 📈 costs) #GITwitter #livertwitter

Great thread on interviewing for GI Fellowship (though this is useful for applying to anything GME). See below for some of my advice! #GITwitter #livertwitter #MedEd #FOAMEd

Fantastic opportunity for those interested in an academic/research career in Hepatology. I can attest: the faculty & the learning/research opportunities of this fellowship are outstanding. I really miss the great discussions at the Thursday conferences! NIDDK #livertwitter

Very excited to share this case report from GI fellowship written by soon-to-be #GITwitter fellow Udit Asija! This was accepted without revision! 👏 Also, this case made me think of one of my favorite residency attendings Lizbeth Cahuayme MD, FIDSA #IDTwitter #MedEd authors.elsevier.com/c/1ja525UiFSkl…

Liver transplant for ALD after <6 months of abstinence has excellent graft and patient outcomes, but higher rates of return to harmful alcohol use in the first 10-years Jessica Musto 🔗 ow.ly/vhXy50SUcly

This almost-first grader 🚲 nearly 30 miles with me this weekend (10x3) Being outside and active with my family is 🥰 Also, life in DC/MD is the best (🚗-free Rock Creek Park)

My painful morning commute was made so much better by listening to Liver Talks: The Liver Fellow Network Podcast episode interviewing Dr Lucey. 💯 recommend! Liver Fellow Network #livertwitter Alex Vogel Adam Winters podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/liv…

Light clinic afternoon meant I seized the opportunity to get 🩸 drawn *before* my lab orders expired. It had been over 2 yrs. As trainees (especially moms), we focus on caring for everyone else & neglect our own healthcare You won’t burden co-trainees ✅Take care of yourself

⌛️It is past time to create smart alcohol policy. Every day, we see patients w/ alcohol-associated liver disease. Many don’t make to transplant & die, with alcohol also affecting many other aspects of life & health. To start: May I suggest evidence-based minimum unit pricing?

In other (non-#MedEd or #livertwitter related) news, Maisie is enjoying lake life and had a successful first boat ride and SUP. Hope everyone is soaking in the last of summer!

So proud of Ben Wipper & team: a case of blue rubber bleb syndrome found incidentally on EGD for dysphasia during Rwandan Endoscopy Week. This case reminds me of the importance of the physical exam! #GITwitter #MedEd Ministry of Health | Rwanda UMarylandGI GI Rising

Thank you, AASLD Foundation and Ashwani Singal for this honor and support during the early stages of my career! My mission is to improve screening, care, and outcomes of patients with ALD/people at risk of ALD. #livertwitter

In this last year, I am especially thankful for the established hepatologists who have helped me 🌱: Juan Pablo (JP) Arab, MD  Elliot Tapper Suthat Liangpunsakul Rotonya Carr Theo Heller Work hard & find good mentors! 💪🏼

One of the most challenging aspects of txp hep for me is the difficult conversations with pts and their families, particularly after the decision to decline for listing. Please join the panel & me below in navigating this important aspect of liver care! aasld.zoom.us/meeting/regist…
