Our leadership has been promising a new “content strategy” to guide our work and solve our budget deficit for nearly a year. But deadlines were missed. And despite the newsroom’s best efforts to be involved in the process, our attempts were in vain. 🧵

For as long as I’ve been a surgeon, I’ve been told that to be successful, one has to be a “triple threat.” But I wish to tell future surgeons to instead “Choose Your Own Threat” - and bring those diverse passions into surgery, even if they’re different jamanetwork.com/journals/jamas…


Well-deserved honor for a terrific person and thoughtful and compassionate surgeon. @Stewartr84, thank you for your positive influence in the growth and development of so many of us.

Undermine internal disinformation controls + incentivize “engagement” with rage-bait through ad revenue sharing = dumpster fire of fake news Is it even worth being on this platform anymore? The Israel-Hamas War Is Drowning X in Disinformation | WIRED wired.com/story/x-israel…


As a surgeon @InovaHealth, really looking forward to seeing this partnership help us continue to elevate care

We are honored to partner with @InovaHealth as a pilot hospital in our Power of Quality campaign. Putting the patient first and total investment in the community are cornerstones of the campaign. #ACSQSC23

Dr Kirsten Edmiston is putting surgical quality @InovaHealth & @InovaSchar in the (inter)national spotlight with @AmCollSurgeons! Privileged to call her a colleague and see this impact firsthand. Check out the full video shown at #ACSQSC23 here: powerofquality.com/?utm_campaign=…

Good read on a complicated issue. On net, I like the access for patients: yes, challenges but also new opportunities. But I am sure it is influencing how we write notes, sometimes for better, sometimes for worse. newyorker.com/news/essay/the… @NewYorker

Once again we are watching the Military Health System suffer from malign neglect, leaving military physicians, nurses, techs, and corpsmen who want only to take excellent care of patients fending for themselves.

Did anyone else make a solitary request that the entirety of #DarkSideOfTheMoon be played in today’s OR music rotation?

Pink Floyd's album "Dark Side of the Moon" was released 50 years ago today. We asked a cognitive psychologist to join us to break down its twisting psychological themes. n.pr/3J0A7Nf
