Excited to attend #ACSCC25 in Chicago this October-a meaningful milestone as I pursue my FACS designation. Looking forward to learning, connecting, and growing alongside surgical leaders, mentors and colleagues in the ACS’s home city! #ACS #Chicago #Surgery #FACS
For the first time in a decade, Clinical Congress will be held in our home city of Chicago! Surgeons share why they are looking forward to coming to the Windy City for #ACSCC25 this October. Will we see you there? 👀🏙️ @emb7658 @sgkeswani @GWSurgChair @TimmermanGary
Excited to see the American College of Surgeons advancing simulation-based learning, a key pillar in shaping the next generation of safe and skilled surgeons. This course highlights the evolving role of simulation in surgical education. #SurgicalEducation #SimulationInSurgery…
📢 Registration is open for the 2025 ACS Simulation in Surgical Education course! Course participants will learn how simulation can teach and refine essential surgical skills. 🗓️: November 19–22 📍: Durham, North Carolina brnw.ch/21wUsCo
A true loss to the global surgical community. Professor Hans Jeekel’s contributions to hernia surgery and surgical education will continue to inspire generations. May his legacy live on through the countless lives he touched. #HerniaSurgery #SurgicalLegacy #ProfessorHansJeekel…
🕯️ In Memory of Professor Hans Jeekel We are deeply saddened by the passing of Professor Hans Jeekel, a true pioneer in hernia surgery and a visionary in our field. It was an honour to award him with a Lifetime Achievement Award at the EHS Congress in Paris last June—one final…
Great points @rbarbosa91 Making medical school tuition-free has not worked to date with respect to increase in primary care specialities selection or work in underserved areas. Variable success has been seen with relation to bonds as a mechanism in loan repayment programs.…
Last week, #ACSQSC25 celebrated the 20th anniversary of the Quality and Safety Conference (QSC). Learn more about the journey ACS Quality Programs have taken since the establishment of the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) in 2004. brnw.ch/21wUrYs
A remarkable step forward for global surgery. Live telesurgery from Atlanta to Strasbourg via the da Vinci 5 dual-console system showcases what the future of surgical collaboration can look like. Kudos to @IntuitiveSurg & @IrcadFrance for pushing the boundaries. #SRS2025…
📡 #SRS2025 #Telesurgery Highlights A groundbreaking demonstration of remote collaboration using the da Vinci 5 dual-console system from @IntuitiveSurg! From the US (Atlanta) to #IRCAD (Strasbourg), the live procedure was also streamed directly at the Palais des Congrès👏
I took this photo during surgical residency in New York. Montauk was a quiet space to pause, reflect, and recharge between long hospital weeks. Not every lesson came from the OR. Some came from slowing down, even briefly. #ResidencyReflections #SurgeonPerspective #Lighthouse…

This study reinforces what many of us observe in practice: multidisciplinary conferences are not routine formalities; they directly impact outcomes. 40% of rectal cancer treatment plans changed after MDC review. A timely reminder of the importance of structured, collaborative…

The silence of colorectal cancer is what makes it so dangerous. No symptoms doesn’t mean no risk. Timely screening and attention to subtle signs can save lives. Appreciate @CCAlliance’s continued efforts to raise awareness. #ColorectalCancerAwareness #ScreeningSavesLives…
The most common symptom of colorectal cancer is no symptom at all. But when signs do appear, recognizing them can lead to earlier detection and better outcomes. 💙 If you notice any of these symptoms, talk to your healthcare provider. Learn more: bit.ly/CRC-Symptoms
Surgeons face difficult ethical decisions every day, as they navigate between patient care, institutional demands, and financial realities. Training, policy, and culture must evolve to meet these challenges. This timely @AnnalsofSurgery piece maps out a moral landscape we…

Congratulations, Adnan. You make #GWProud!
So well deserved. We are so proud of what he has accomplished in his stellar academic career. @BUSPH is lucky to have him as a leader
The IntAct trial adds important data on ICG fluorescence angiography in rectal cancer surgery. While it didn’t reach statistical significance, there’s a signal toward reduced rates of lower-grade anastomotic leaks (grades A & B). As colorectal surgeons, we continue to seek ways…
