A #PandemicBirthday 🎈🎉 for my now 6-year-old who was exceptional through this quarantine.... And although she craved and missed socialization, she washed her hands, wore her mask, had a smile on her face and did not throw a single tantrum thru this tough time..

One of those days when you pull, then pull harder and then @t_intheleadcoat tells you to 'just pull everything out'. I listen to him, the whole room gasps, i check vitals, break-out to change scrubs and then return to finish the case. #IRad #ClotOut #ComprehensiveVascularCare

Expertise in #CLI does not end in hi-fives in the control room after successful three vessel run off, but with longitudinal patient follow up, personalized wound care and multi-D collaboration, until complete wound healing is achieved and amputation is prevented. #VIrad #PAD
