I have a patient who has some anxiety and requires a bit more TLC, so I make sure to circle back to this patient to thoroughly explain the plan everyday. Today, this patient told me that I was doing a great job and that he was proud of me 🥲🫶🏽 #thesmallthings

One of my mentees texted me that she made a vision board for 2023 and put my match day picture on it for inspiration. Reminder to self: everything you do matters. Maintain your standard. Stay grateful and humble. Lift as you climb. #daymade

Officially registered with #MedGradWishlist and added my links to my bio! Looking forward to this season of giving!✨ #MedGradWishlist

Sending so much love to all of those who received an email today, no matter what it said 🫶🏽

Cannot help but think about last year on Match Day! Remember, the place you end up is exactly where you should be.

This is what support from great faculty and mentors looks like. Thank you Temple Ortho J. Milo Sewards Theresa Pazionis MD MA FRCSC ABOS for believing in us and helping us achieve our dreams! #Match2023 #OrthoTwitter

I cannot believe intern year flew by so quickly! I’m grateful for this journey that I am on. I spent this morning documenting the goals for PGY-2 year, something I wish I did for PGY-1. I’m optimistic about what this new year will bring!

In a creative mood…what content do you all want to see from a second year plastic surgery resident (aka me🤭)?!

I was in charge of picking the music for a 13+ hour surgery today. I panicked! I thought…what vibe do I want to curate? I turned on @KAYTRANADA radio on pandora and sat nervously awaiting the team’s opinion. They LOVED the vibes! This is my pick in the OR from here on out 💅🏽

We’re honored to be continuing our partnership with Fox Chase Cancer Center and Hunter College! This five-year, $13.3 million competitive grant renewal from National Cancer Institute will help continue important work addressing cancer health disparities. Read more at: brnw.ch/21wErKa

Spent my Christmas away from family for the first time ever. I decided last minute to go see #TheColorPurple and BABYYYYY, Fantasia Taylor, ate it DOWN!!! This is why you got our votes on American Idol! Her voice brought me to tears. Go see this movie, yall!

I was inspired to study at the public library yesterday to study because of Mychal! When I got there, I felt like a little kids again. Side note: the Columbus Library is BEAUTIFUL 🤍

The elusive nature of time is WILD! It is hard to believe that it has been two years since I had the privilege of opening my Match envelope. Happy Match Day to all the medical students finding out where their journey will officially begin! #Match2024

She’ll be the best OBGYN!!! Proud of you!

SICKENING—Trump’s DHS just deported a surgeon from Brown University Medical School—who is here legally on an H1B visa that doesn’t expire until 2027, and has committed no crimes. Trained in the U.S. at Ohio State, University of Washington, and Yale as a **transplant surgeon**
