I just am beside myself seeing the amount of diversity across the country. There are NO EXCUSES. This year’s match proves that we are here and qualified and capable. And now that you have recruited us: support us, mentor us, empower us.

w/M4s apartment hunting, friendly reminder to be cautious language you use or repeat regarding neighborhoods you have never lived in. Words like “sketchy”, “scary”, “ghetto” to describe areas where mainly black residents live, especially when untrue is implicitly biased/racist.

Many of us are not surprised that it took almost 1 year to bring “justice” for George Floyd’s family. The verdict was clear day one, but the doubt regarding today’s verdict results is system racism and discrimination towards Black people

Surprised Mami at the office today. 💛 ¡Feliz (late) Día de las Madres, especially immigrant ones! 2 more days until one of your 5 children hace historia & becomes a doctor. Ahí vamos!👨🏽‍⚕️💪🏽🇲🇽🇺🇸 #firstgen #farmworker #LatinXMedTwitter #GeorgiaMade 🍑

My Nigerian mother never misses an opportunity to tell someone that I’m graduating from medical school. I don’t know why the guy who came to fix our washer needed to know. But she definitely felt he did 😂😂😂

I finally achieved my dream of becoming Dr. Rachel Esparza!! I owe it all to my parents who came here in their 20s in search of better futures. 🔹1st gen college grad & Mexican-American 🇲🇽 🔹1st doctor in my family 🔹Yale School of Medicine grad You bet I’ll be lifting others up with me! ✊🏼

New interns, don’t downplay yourself. You’re finally a doctor, this is not by mistake. You belong here, even though it feels like there’s a lot you don’t know. The learning is steep, but you are capable. You waited your entire life for this. Be the best doctor for every patient.

the best crew! 🙌🏽

this is your friendly reminder to water your plant. …even if that plant is you.

We are hosting a Meet and Greet for Latinas in EM on October 27th at 5PM PST (8pmEST). The goal is to welcome the new Latinas in EM interns, to meet each other, and provide mentoring with issues commonly faced by Latinas in EM. See details in the comments.

Thrilled to share our class of 2026! We couldn’t be happier 🥳#readyforanything #EmergencyMedicine #MatchDay2022

Love seeing all the #NationalLatinoPhysicianDay posts to promote awareness about the need for more Latinx physicians. I recently shared my path to medicine which was inspired by the need for more Latinx doctors in South LA. health.ucdavis.edu/insideout/news…
