Got to watch #DISCOVERYx hosted by Nationwide Children's Hospital this afternoon. It is a series of TEDx inspired talks by employees of the hospital. Really powerful stuff. This particular message really resonated with me. We need to do better.

Going to medical school as a low income student meant taking on nearly $300K in educational debt. That's grown to over $400K thanks to interest. Want more doctors who come from disadvantaged backgrounds? Make higher education more accessible & #CancelStudentDebt

30% of the U.S. is Black/African American, Latinx/Hispanic, Native American or Pacific Islander, yet <15% of U.S. physicians hold these identities. Changes to @NCHPedsRes recruitment are helping to close this gap: pediatricsnationwide.org/2021/12/14/cre… #URM #DEI Dr. “Dad” MD, FAAP, FASN Monica Hoff, M.D. Claudia Mosquera, MD

I will not be silent about #healthequity. I will not be silent about #childhealth. I will not be silent about #infantmortality. I will not be silent about #maternalhealth. I will not be silent about #science. I will not be silent.

Black MATCH 2022 applicants a word of advice: if your top programs are lacking melanin, think long and hard about if you want to be the only Black resident in that program; especially if they don't have Black faculty. Yes, you MATCH there this year but that doesn't mean 1/2

Today on Peds Hem/Onc, I was on my first ever all black team! Black Attending. Black Senior. Black intern. Black NP. Treating our Black patients with Sickle Cell Anemia. Thank you @NCHPedsRes for making this the best start to Black History Month! 💪🏿 #BHM

Diversity and inclusion is so much more than just hiring a melanated face. IT IS NOT ENOUGH to hire Black/minority candidates when you offer no real type of support and protection for them at your institution.

In 4 days I had 10 hours of sleep… God held my voice together for this. 😂

Could not be more excited for the first of many Health Equity Rounds at Nationwide Children's Hospital ! The incredible @NCHPedsRes Chief Dr. Jessica Williams is presenting!
