Great article by some of my ENT colleagues www.statnews.com/2025/06/02/m...

Every clinic visit- do you need a school note? Do you need a work note? Here take one just in case! (Etc.) Took my son to the dentist yesterday and forgot to ask for the note. (Just like I forgot last time.) 🤦🏻‍♀️

YESSSSSS

Why does CITI renewal training take so many hours?! Who has the time for this...

www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/o... Great perspective by @gregggonsalves.bsky.social (and a little bit of hope, which I sorely need)

United Health Group’s pharmacy benefit manager, Optum Rx, stopped covering Cole Schmidtknecht’s “life-changing” inhaler, suit alleges.

Editorial from the @thelancet.bsky.social "The health, medical, and scientific communities have a vital role in advocating for their patients, defending programmes, and lobbying for policies and institutions that are good for health and wellbeing." #GoodTrouble

Dear fellow scientists, Go talk to the press about what is going on. Talk to local news about how it will impact jobs. Be specific, but don't pity yourself. Instead focus on how your own situation affects local jobs, the national economy, beating the growing scientific race with China. Suggestions:

Could you imagine if everyone with #asthma or #COPD only paid a $25 co-pay for their #inhalers? #lifechanging @pedlungdoc.bsky.social @wbfeldman.bsky.social

Check out this interview I got to do about my advocacy work. It was an honor to participate. www.hopkinsmedicine.org/news/article...

There’s gonna be no one left to care for the kids. 😢 #payequityforpeds

I know this sounds far fetched, but there is potential for bipartisan work on things like PBMs and Medicare advantage. Our current news cycle is showing us that these mega healthcare corporations have a roughly 0% approval rating. Everybody is pissed off at (mostly) the same things.

Half of my pre-Thanksgiving clinic is patients who have been away at college and are home for the break. Pediatrics is the best. It is fun seeing such a big age range- infants to young adults.

Bluesky feels like it's really taking off!

I have such a love-hate relationship with EndNote.

Talked all morning in clinic and just realized I'm completely losing my voice. I'm giving a news interview in 20 min and a grand rounds at 6 PM tonight. Send help!!!
