I cannot believe Italy is going back to Mussolini times. America is at risk of going down the same road if we don't show up at the polls. We have to take this seriously. When Jews tell us that the U.S. resembles Germany in the 10 yrs before the Holocaust, I believe them.

Today I read an anonymous post from a colleague who is an alcoholic seeking help. Yet many state laws required MDs to report their mental health issues are take the doc’s license away. Recipe for disaster our high suicide rates. We can do better!

When your colleague breaks the law to mislead patients, you should side with the patients.

There is nothing quite like a med school commencement. So much energy and excitement. Pure joy from graduates and family. You also get to dress up like a wizard which is nice. Every time I go to one, I get a tiny little twinge of jealousy that I don’t work in an academic setting.

Merry-Jennifer Markham, MD, FACP, FASCO I was a Board Member PPP - Putting Patients First I was terminated from committees and groups without even a conversation when I missed some meeting. I had surgery and have a disabled wife. Physicians leaders don’t exist.

Why do we call insurance? It’s a bloated, third-party payer.

Not only do they not provide care, they obstruct and deny it after pretending you’re going to get it by paying them

How do you tell a medical doctor?

Real doctors: *reluctant to state they are doctors in public/social forums*

Non-MD/DOs: *take every opportunity to say they are a doctor…* (chiropractors, naturopaths, pharmacists, apothecaries, charlatans…)
