Kurt Cobain died 29 years ago today. He suffered chronic pain. Wrote in his journal that he chose drugs instead of ending his own life. Buprenorphine worked for him, as it does for many today. But it was illegal then. When his physician died in 93 he was caught off. RIP Kurdt

#AMEC2024 Last day to hear about University of Penn IM Residency Program at the AMP UPHS CHOP booth! Come by and visit my co-chief Nichole Smith, MD and I! 🤗

I went to #AMEC2024 and all I got was this fancy (free!) headshot 😌 Such an amazing weekend of connecting with colleagues past, present, and future. The true definition of a VILLAGE!

Definitely thought it was just a really large stretcher being wheeled above us 😭

Hey QGenda. We’re having trouble contacting a human who can help us get our schedules up. Can you help?

Remembering #PhilandoCastile, who was unjustly taken from us 8 years ago today. I witnessed the impact of your death in St. Paul, Minnesota and beyond. Your life mattered, and you should be here. #RememberingPhilando #JusticeForPhilando #BeLove
