‼️‼️‼️👀👀👀👀‼️‼️‼️ New AJPE commentary by Frank Romanelli and me discussing the need to reexamine the entry-to-practice PharmD....not controversial at all :-) #PharmEd #TwitteRx #PharmD Daniel Malcom doi.org/10.1016/j.ajpe…

What I wanna know is who are the 8.5% who don’t think that PBMs are negatively affecting their practice? Vet compounding practices? Because if you have human patients, they are hurting. And that hurts you.

Sometimes I think about how my grandmother, at my age, was a mother of 5 who kept the grill grate spotlessly clean (shiny stainless steel) and grew all her own food. She died after a long happy, healthy, and fulfilled life. What have we traded?

Elder millennial PSA! Most of us got stuck in a developmental no-man’s land when it came to the HPV vaccine, but they’ve raised the recommended age to 45! It can help prevent against future new infections of cancer-causing strains of the virus! I got my second shot today!

Or here’s a novel idea: work on becoming a country that citizens won’t have to get on an overpacked boat to escape from.

Holy cow. Elizabeth Warren goes for the throat. 🔥🔥🔥

Congrats on my honorary MD today from WoltersKluwerHealth JCG Online since pharmacists never need to access peer-reviewed journals!

Or what about my laptop and notebook that I bring home each night: "I'll get a little work done after dinner." 🤣

CVS/Caremark: $300 billion revenue per year Median physician salary: $208k The media: Why are physicians so greedy do they hate America?

98% of the American population doesn’t know the following information: 1. Health systems, PBMs, and carriers want and need prices to continually increase. 2. Medicare pays health systems 3-5x more than private practice physicians for the same treatments. 3. New physicians

It’s officially that time of year in the Midwest where pulling up to an intersection to see past the corn could kill you. The crop giveth and the crop taketh away.

I'm losing count of whether this is the 2nd or 3rd "Extraordinary threat to life" Tornado Warning this week, but all I know is that our incoming out of state students will never believe that this isn't normal weather for us. #EastTennessee #ETSU

Per a fitness and nutritional "expert", l-glutamine is designated as "L" because it is only used on the left side of the body. 🫢 Do they skip chemistry in high school these days?
