Folks, we really have to start talking about this. Surgery as practiced in the US today, with all of our non-evidenced based regulations and single use plastics, is a huge propellant of #climatechange. Let’s start turning the tide for our health. AAGL aagl.zoom.us/webinar/regist…

Surgery continues to be more diverse w/ more women, races/ethnicities, sexual orientations, & other minoritized groups, & leadership must be held accountable to support all surgeons. This is why DEI is important in surgery. We can’t have statements like this. #STS2023

Congratulations to our own Rebecca Schneyer, MD, who received the Medstar National Center for Advanced Pelvic Surgery Diversity and Inclusion Award given by the Foundation of the AAGL cedars-sinai.org/newsroom/cedar… (1/2)

Amazing Red bag project helped to reduce waste and save costs in the OR! This is a simple action that can make an incredible impact worldwide. Thank you Kelly “MIGS Lady” Wright MD!!🔥 AAGL FMIGS #AAGL2023

Ppl may hear this and think “oh they want to get paid more” but that’s not it. When our surgeries bill like 🗑️ we get kicked out of surgicenters to make room for cases that bill more and PATIENTS pay the price. BTW, those higher 💰 surgeries aren’t for more skill or training.

Another incredible AAGL in the books!Highlights included my first FMIGS bootcamp, inspiring medtalks by our very own OB/GYN at Cedars-Sinai faculty, and sharing my latest myomectomy sim research. #AAGL2023

What we say & do matters! The AAGL delegation to the AMA testified re OR sustainability & passed policy in support! Thank you all for your amplification and sponsorship! Every talk, every QI project, every commentary adds to this work. #Sustainability #ClimateAction
