It is today, Thursday, May 29th, and after 500 prior studies that looked as calm as a yoga retreat, I finally saw a routine 20-min EEG showing seizures. Miracles do happen guys, never stop believing.

Not me showing up day 1 of residency and saying: Paracetamol.

Level up

Happy to share that I will be giving 2 oral & 5 poster presentations at #ACG2025 in Phoenix, AZ! Something that would have never happened if it wasn’t for the support of my PD, and my mentors at Henry Ford, Dr. Mazen Elatrache, MD and Dr. Jafri Alhamdulellah ACG

Happy to share that I won the ACG’s Health Equity Research Award. It wouldn’t have happened if it wasn’t for all the help and support I got from my mentors and colleagues at Henry Ford, Dr. Mazen Elatrache, MD and Dr. Jafri Alhamdulellah ACG Anita Afzali MD, MPH, MHCM, FACG, AGAF

Congratulations 👏. Very proud of your hard work!

I am not courageous. Only the poor have courage. Why? Because they’re hopeless. To get up every morning to plow a potato field in wartime, to bring kids with no prospects into the world. To live poor…that takes courage.

Mixing caffeine with high functioning anxiety on a full clinic day and seeing whether you're going to be productive and sharp or shaky and die.

It is very hard to make peace with the fact that we will never see something like this again.

Trying to keep this account professional, but oh boy, if you only knew how much I wanna talk about The Blacklist, Lost, and all my favorite Greek mythology snippets. December couldn’t feel any further.
