Checkout our new study👇👇 Despite the high prevalence of pain, it wasn’t linked to significant distress in patients with spine mets. Emotional symptoms like anxiety and fear had a much greater impact. Important implications for supportive care. @DukeSpine

How can we better understand the challenges faced by patients with metastatic spine disease? Our new study in @TheJNS highlights high rates of distress—especially among minority patients—and the need for timely, tailored support. #GoTogetherGoFar @DukeSpine

New study in @CancerMedicineJ on perioperative distress in cancer patients! 👉The first month post-op is a critical period 👉Trends vary by cancer type (not a one-size-fits-all approach) This inspired our #SpineNavigators program in an effort to provide targeted support.

New in @AcadMedJournal! Q: Residents are key to medical student education—but what do students value in resident teachers? A: Across genders and specialties, students value those who teach actively & create safe learning spaces. Very proud of our team @DukeSurgery!! #MedEd
