10 years ago today, I interviewed at my top choice medical school, but I was waitlisted and did not ultimately get in. Today, I am faculty at that very institution.
Amazing to reflect on all that has happened between now and then, and how much I’ve changed. (1/5)
Go Julia!!
Construction is fully underway on our 11th floor as we add 24 acute care beds to the Children’s Tower! A growing hospital means a growing team, so today we introduce Julia Johnston, nurse manager of CHoR’s newest acute care pediatrics unit: bit.ly/4qQe3cE

Mrs. Graham Nordone says her family suffered and died without health care and apparently thinks yours should too.
Call me crazy, but as a doctor, I believe there are few responsibilities more fundamental to government than keeping its citizens healthy and safe. No family should have to suffer simply because generations before them did.
The best time!!
An awesome way to end a successful Friday at @PHMConf. @childrensatvcu and @vcupeds were well represented. Enjoyed a very nice group dinner at Lidia’s Italian Restaurant to celebrate! #PHM2026
Incredible team
The CHoR pediatric emergency department’s outstanding nursing team is named a 2026 winner of the Emergency Nurses Association Lantern Award, which recognizes the best emergency rooms across the country. bit.ly/45uHTt5 @ENAorg

After spending 5 days straight over Thanksgiving with my vivacious, super smart, but increasingly defiant 2 year old, can anyone recommend a good parenting/discipline book? 🙃

How sad it must be believing that doctors, scientists, scholars, historians, economists & journalists are all lying to you, but a criminal conman, business cheat, reality TV game show host with a lifelong history of blatant, unapologetic, nonstop lying, is telling you the truth.
My girl is all smiles because she got @Beyfortus today!! Feeling grateful. @Voices4Vaccines

Republicans armed Donald Trump’s would-be assassins with weapons of war.
Replying to @atrupar
Vance: "First, they tried to silence him. When that didn't work, they tried to bankrupt him. When that didn't work, they tried to jail him. And with all the hatred they have spewed at President Trump, it was only a matter of time before somebody tried to kill him."
For some reason, all week, the paper in the hospital printer where I print my daily list has been purple. It has really been brightening my day 😊
Sunday scaries hit different when you’re about to go on service for the first time after maternity leave! #feelingrusty
Does your med school send you swag when you have a baby! @vtcsom is family!!
