You do not need to, nor should you, ignore your fears - there is plenty to be afraid of - but we have possibilities before us.
We can win, we can succeed, but we cannot do it alone. We will need the people.
We must get to work.
Everyone matters.
Everyone has something to give.

Hey #medtwitter #DEItwitter. I have been frequently asked for ways to handle #microaggressions from patients. This week’s thread will cover some strategies we can use. Let’s go!

Pro tip for first day of clerkships: it’s perfectly acceptable to say to literally anyone “I’m a Med student & it’s my 1st day. Can you help me???” 😬😬😬

Creative study in @JAMAOnc on patient parking fees
The good news - among 63 centers, median cost of parking was $0 for a course of breast CA treatment - but it could be as high as $800!
High parking $$ is an excellent way to magnify health disparities

Meet (twitterless) @DeptVetAffairs Quality and Improvement Chief, Dr. Peter Glynn. He says that if this is retweeted 10 times, he'll make a Twitter account.

As medical professionals, silence is no longer an option. It's time to wield our privilege to eliminate structural racism in medicine and beyond.
Grateful to @JAMA_current @PreetiNMalani for the opportunity to add my thoughts and call to action.

That joy you feel seeing a role model from your past continuing to shine bright.
For me, it is @IssakaMD, who was an intern when I was a medical student at @NUFeinbergMed, challenging all of us to call out microaggressions when we witness them:
