What a pleasure to see Zara Cooper at Hopkins Surgery, eloquently describing the importance of #PalliativeCare in surgery. “They said ‘do everything’ and I did everything I knew how to do.” There’s a more nuanced, goal-concordant approach to caring for seriously ill patients!

Every year over 1M older adults with serious illness have major surgery or severe trauma, but they are less likely to receive #palliativecare alongside surgical care, despite proven benefits including relief of suffering and improved postoperative outcomes.
Beyond grateful for two years at CSPH with Zara Cooper, @joeladler, our incredible faculty and our cohort/cast of characters Rachel Atkinson , Michael Dalton , Claudia Orlas and Sami Osman. I'll be a better doctor thanks to these friends and mentors.
“If you continue to ask questions, you might get answers - just maybe not the ones you expected.” Our final graduating fellow Claire Sokas on changing how we talk to patients about surgical decision making & understanding the rehabilitation experience of older adults.
Congrats to our incoming transplant fellow Dr. Asish Misra from BIDMC Department of Surgery on receiving a $100k research grant from OneLegacy!
