This is a big step forward for access to care for our patients. Thanks to the American College of Radiology staff and radiologist volunteers who have worked so hard and for so long to reach this milestone.

The #ACRBulletin team looks forward to working with new collaborators, check out this exciting opportunity.

Black Men in Medicine featuring Dr. Ledet, Dr. Ogunbekun and Dr. Etienne! Yeah, our ancestors would be proud!

We were glad to meet with Rep. Jerry O'Connor today to present him with the Life Saver Award! Thank you for your continued support of early breast cancer intervention. #EarlyDetectionSavesLives

Last time I worked in my colleague’s bland office, I gave him polite feedback. “I felt like I was on a psych hold.” 😂 This time I now see a Nespresso, two family photos, and a candle. Polite feedback works 😁

You should ask, who is taking care of you when you go to the hospital and see someone in a white coat or see a primary care provider (most physicians will not call themselves providers) Imagine 96% acceptance rate for medical school. It’s usually closer to the opposite 4%.

Since it's official... I'd like to announce my new position at UW School of Medicine and Public Health as the new Assistant Block Leader for Phase 1 anatomy! I will be teaching Radiology during the M1s anatomy dissections 🤗 Thank you to #AllisonGrayev, #DavidKim, and Kenneth S. Lee for their mentorship!

Tell me you’re the first doctor in your family without telling me you’re the first doctor in your family

Congratulations to University of Kentucky College of Medicine medical student Lee Kiefer for repeating her gold medal performance in foil fencing in Paris The Olympic Games!!

Two years ago my son had a series of surgeries for a congenital limb issue. The wheelchair was the best way to get him around then. And today that kid rode a bike for the first time.

Get to know your #ACRYPS Chair, Monica Wood, MD 👋 Monica Wood, MD leads an all-star YPS Executive Committee in strengthening the voice of YPS members and increasing effectiveness on the ACR Council. We look forward to this next year with Dr. Wood and the YPS EC!

Today I'm launching a small, simple site dedicated to helping radiologists find true private practices (and helping those practices find radiologists). It's a crazy job market out there. It's called Independent Radiology, and I hope it's helpful: independentradiology.com

At ACR 2024, Mark Yeh, MD, MBA, FACR was awarded the ACR RAN Advocate of the Year award for his hard work and dedication in advocacy. Yeh sat down with the #ACRBulletin to talk about winning the award and the people who helped him get to where he is. American College of Radiology Amy K. Patel, MD Kirang Patel, MD

Always a great time in #Boston! Especially reconnecting with former coresidents and attendings at Mass General Imaging. #radiology #radres

In related news, Independent Radiology has 50 private practices listed that are currently hiring and more coming this week. I think this would also be a great place to begin a job search. independentradiology.com
