👩⚕️🧑⚕️ Burned out doesn’t have to mean broken. This weekend at the @AmerUrological (AUA) Annual Meeting in Las Vegas, we’re not showcasing a new device or pharmaceutical breakthrough. We’re bringing a product just as critical: compassion, empathy, and real support for struggling…
Yes we face difficult decisions as we treat older and older patients. The USPSTF age of 70 for stopping PCa screening seems quite young when we consider that the highest relative growth index of all age groups is the 110-120 year olds.
Unfortunately he was found to have very significant disease. Several thoughts (sorry for long tweet): 1. Was the decision random to just have him get DRE and PSA at 82 and hasn’t been screened for the last 5-10 years? Was there some imaging and incidentally they saw something…
Medicine is: yesterday "Mirabegron not covered, call in Myrbetriq" and today "Myrbetriq not covered, call in Mirabegron"
Trying hard to enjoy myself in this socialist nightmare of a country. What do you mean everything runs perfectly?? @UNCityCPH
OMFG.
🚨BREAKING: Just received footage of a new dinosaur species living in the human bladder. The little guy 🦖 was rescued and released back into the wild. Endourology never ceases to surprise. #urology #bladderdino
Vamos Carlito!!!!! One of the best matches since Federer and Rafa. Amazing by the both of them. @carlosalcaraz @janniksin @rolandgarros
Patients often tell me how much they appreciate me taking the time to sit down, spend time with them, look them in the eye, put a hand on their shoulder, and show that I care. They say some physicians seem angry, dismissive, and so rushed they miss the story. Sometimes, I use…
I don’t think we teach our trainees the NON CLINICAL skills of seeing patients in clinic - this is perhaps something to focus on at the next advanced bootcamp @EndoLuminalEndo @shekharbiyani @BSoT_UK Meanwhile, some wise words for us all courtesy of Sir Norman Browse
Dear patients, I’m sure you mean well, but no, I am not related to Kash Patel. And even if I was, he is the one relative everyone hates, no one talks to and is never invited to anything.
We knew we would have a hard life and chose to do it anyways. What makes it impossible is out of touch “leaders” who stigmatize mental health issues and burnout without addressing the administrative burden causing those problems. I’m sure you felt like this disaster of a post is…
So troublesome to see so many young doctors complaining about how hard the job is. Your job is about taking care of patients. It’s called dedication. It’s called devotion. If you wanted an easy life, you should’ve chosen something else.
Raise your hand if you're a urologist and have already seen a marked increase in requests for DRE.
Tennis is such a mental game—an allegory for life in so many ways. You can lose a considerable lead in a moment of complacency, or find yourself completely down and out, yet somehow dig deep to fight for every point. Sometimes, though, the most important thing is to step away and…
Another Dr. Patel has joined our medical group, and as expected, my inbox messages have doubled
We are pleased to be featured by International Business Times @IBTimes @safehavenmd ibtimes.com/safehavenmd-on…
At SafeHavenMD, we know that mental health struggles are often misunderstood, especially within the medical community. Physicians aren’t immune to these challenges. In fact, we often face them in silence, afraid to seek help or be seen. This month, and every month, SafeHavenMD…
