So exciting for many of my patients! I deeply hope it works 🤞 #endometriosis #ObGynSky #MedSky

The dynamics that polarise us on social media are about to get worse theconversation.com/the-dynamics... "...organized efforts to spread politically motivated lies & discredit inconvenient truths" may distort community notes. Problem accelerated by acrophily, "or a preference for the extreme."

Optimal learning thrives under just enough stress—too little, and growth stagnates; too much, and it overwhelms. For me, growing up in a cowboy - ish small-town environment, where social options were limited, wasn’t easy, but equipped me for 'boys club' dynamics as a woman surgeon later on. 1/2

HIGHLY ALARMING🚨🚨🚨 the first critically ill adolescent with #H5N1 D1.1 (aka #BirdFlu) in North America. A 13 yo rapidly progressed from mild symptoms to respiratory & renal failure. She survived thanks to IMV + ECMO + CRRT. But the situation is dreadful 📄 www.nejm.org/doi/full/10....

The biggest lie we tell ourselves: "I’ll remember this, no need to write it down." (Kevin Kelly) WRITE IT DOWN. Stories, good catches, team conflicts, successes, funny moments—they’re GOLD. Use them: 🔑 In interviews 🎓 For teaching 🔥 To inspire ❌ As “what not to do” lessons 1/2

Love how innocent yet well focused children are on better bonding, affixing & more importantly, simplicity !! 👏🏻

For 2025 I want peace on Earth, and I don't mean it in the cheery beauty pageant-y way. Peace is much harder than war. I want people with power to act with maturity not anger. To stop fighting over land and fight for people's wellbeing instead. Peace, shelter, food, water, education. Please. 🙏❤️🙏❤️

Who wants to see organs teaming up to keep the human body running? Check out my latest cartoon, The Organ Operatives! It’s chaos, science, and teamwork all in one. Don’t miss it! #KidneyComics #MedSky #NephSky

I just can’t put a better one than that as an obgyn . But at the moment if i am giving a movie 7/10 , i am probably counting hours left in my shift ending🥱😂

Men invented religion because women are the true creators of life. It’s basically large scale uterine envy. Merry Christmas!🎄✨

Day #11 of setting a record daily low for Arctic sea-ice extent. Dec. 20, 2024: 180,000 km² below the previous daily record. This may be the last of these daily records for a bit. Stay tuned!

As we gain expertise, the cognitive bandwidth required for surgery decreases. However, if a procedure demands 100% of your capacity to the point where you can’t communicate, that’s a risky place to be. How do you then 'fly by voice'—keeping the team informed of your progress, and what you need? 1/2
