Very rewarding. Heejung Choi, MD

First time in 20+ years without chronic pelvic pain. This patient had tried and failed tonic SCS. Pictures like this show how far we've come in #neuromodulation. I'm excited about where we are and where we're going! UAMS Pain UAMS Health NANS Official ASPN


Today I was asked about the best advice I ever received. Couldnt narrow it to just one. here is one I use every day: "In everything you do, find your core competency and master it". Works in business, works in medicine, works in life. UAMS Health #SoMeDocs #MondayMotivaton

82 yo F offered "conservative" treatment. 2 mo. of 10/10 pain to 0/10. Vertebral augmentation is life saving therapy that should be considered for every patient with symptomatic VCF. Educating referring providers is key. It's an uphill battle. @uamspain Douglas Beall Wayne Olan

Ended day moderating a conversation between Arkansas Blue Cross and Blue Shield and providers at UAMS Health. So interesting to hear how a payor views the #opioidcrisis. Takeaway: MDs, hospitals, patients, PharmDs, government, AND payors cant be in Silos. UAMS Pain @UAMS_Anes ASPN #somedocs


Started my day UAMS Health on THV11 discussing the #SeniorExpo. Next an SCS trial for the DM Neuropathy study. Noon AR-Impact panel about opioid abuse. Then an #RRR task force meeting to discuss Reimagining City of Little Rock Parks System! Love my job UAMS Pain @UAMS_Anes!!!!


Great day in the OR knocking out 3 implants for the SENZA-PDN study with G. Lawson Smith, MD. Awesome leadership from PI Dr. Erika Petersen has helped propel it forward! Looking forward to the results. UAMS Health UAMS Pain UAMSneurosurg Johnathan Goree MD Heejung Choi, MD


Today, people I met for the first time allowed me to place needles within millimeters of their spinal cord. The trust that patients have in me is something that I will never take for granted! #ThursdayThoughts #SoMeDocs UAMS Health @UAMS_Anes


Simulation session in pain clinic today! Such an important, but overlooked learning tool in pain medicine. #LAST #SafetyFirst #teamworkmakesthedreamwork #painfellowship G. Lawson Smith, MD Johnathan Goree MD Christopher Paul, MD Dr. Erika Petersen jillmhyre


Always a great time representing UAMS Health UAMS Pain @UAMS_Anes on Power 92 Jams. I always learn so much from these conversations with listeners on and off air. #SoMeDocs


In medicine, I feel like #1 is crucial. Many of the poor leaders I witnessed in my training often blamed other members of the team (nurses, trainees, etc.) when care fell short. Leaders own the entire team's losses and give others credit for the wins. Thanks Salma Jutt

This pin represents so much growth as a clinician, researcher, lecturer, teacher, leader, and policy maker. Thank you UAMS Health for the opportunity to grow here and I hope I contribute as much to you and you do to me. #ILoveArkansas @UAMS_Anes #Somedocs Arkansas Expats
