Another good read... Imposter syndrome is the symptom, but inequity is the disease. #WomenInSTEM #equity #WomenInMedicine #AcademicTwitter #MedEd ja.ma/2OQ7Qiv

So stoked to be seeing primary care patients again. It’s been two years of fellowship / no continuity and a year of urgent care...

Today, at the end of our visit, my patient told me wants to figure out why he gets irrationally angry at flies. (Flies?) What’s the weirdest door handle question you’ve gotten? #primarycare

Feeling pretty similar right now.

There needs to be so much more of this in the world. edition.cnn.com/2019/08/22/aus…

I think there’s a connection between value in healthcare and the soul crushing lack of sleep that comes with babies. But I’m too tired to come up with a clever analogy. #academicmama #WomenInMedicine

Examining Generalizability of Older Adults’ Preferences for Discussing Cessation of Screening Colonoscopies in Older Adults with Low Health Literacy dlvr.it/RBwqrm

Tails! Calling all multimorbidity researchers, pcps, and geriatricians. Why haven’t we started trying this for our frail elderly?!!

Fascinating and way too detailed for a quick read... but VA docs vs. USCD docs --> mouse clicks over study period ~ 1.7k/user (CPRS) vs 760/user (Epic) Basically, we're all getting carpel tunnel. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Resident asks not SHOULD, but HOW to complete a bevy of painful, invasive tests for a patient with dementia... #lifegoal of considering pt preferences always first. True for medicine & research... healthaffairs.org/do/10.1377/hbl…

Extreme heat from climate change could impact over 350 million people if the trajectory continues. Just a hint of the public health crisis looming. #ClimateChange #sgimnw2020

I also got really excited to see American Girls Dolls now have a Mars engineer set up. This might be totally mixing commercialism and big corporate backers, but at least it's normalizing #WomenInScience! #MakeSpaceForWomen

The incomparable Esther Choo, MD MPH speaks on sexual harassment + gender inequity @PartnersNews. It's worse in medicine and for women of color + gender minorities, and its ill effects ripple out beyond those directly affected. #genderequity TIME'S UP Healthcare

Winter here is slowly giving into Spring. Until Spring is fully sprung, consider reading “Components of the Patient-Centered Medical Home Associated with Perceived Access to Primary Care.” First author Linnaea Schuttner and co-authors S. Fihn and K. Nelson. tinyurl.com/v9nlzdr
