Just thinking about how when I was an intern, we had an all male chief class, maternity leave 6 wks w/ no lactation policy, paternity leave 4 DAYS. Now we’ll have 3 women chiefs, 6 women interns. Mat leave 12 wks, pat leave 6 wks, & a lactation policy. What a difference in 7 yrs!

This whole process is a marathon, not a sprint. You worked hard to make the best application you could. You can’t change it now. Take a breath, spend time not doing residency worrying. If you do anything, practice mock interviews since that is the next step.

Done with 5/6 sub Is and let me tell ya, if gen surg is your calling a grueling line up of sub Is is a right of passage. You learn SO MUCH and it tests your commitment to your specialty. The result: I’m more excited than ever to be a gen surg intern. Bring it on. #Match2024

@WomenSurgeons A5. I was low key terrified to accept that I was interested in surgery the first two years of school — the bad stereotypes were tough. Turns out I’m surrounded by kind hearted, interesting and hard working folks. Every day I love my job more and more. #AWSChat

Fun facts about chinchillas: 1.) they can't bathe in water because it will make their dense fur moldy -- so they use sand baths to keep clean! 2.) they are crepuscular, which means active at dawn and dusk 3.) they are super adorable ❤️

Mental illness is real and affects lots of high performing people, even (especially?) doctors. I am lucky to have avoided major depression so far, but I have ADHD and it affects me a lot (looking at you, research years). Around PGY3 I realized communicating my "weaknesses"

New viewpoint in @JAMASurgery about the crucial need to destigmatize mental illness in surgical training. Thanks @WhitneyFu1 @pggauger @erikaanewman for such a compelling call to action! @UMichSurgery

Just to be clear, Trump and McConnell don’t want to push through a nominee *in case* he loses, they want to do it so that *if* he loses they can bring it to SCOTUS and get victory handed to him. We need to vote him and his Senate cronies out by a landslide.
