More BTS with David Dadey, MD, PhD in the OR:
'One of the best parts of chief residency is teaching my juniors as we take on difficult and complex cases. Here I am (on the left), taking PGY-3 Dr. Bina Kakusa through a far-lateral approach for a cervico-medullary tumor.' #SUresidentTakeover

Had a great time this afternoon doing a Q&A on applying to residency.

Finished up an amazing rotation at Stanford Orthopaedics! Grateful to Stanford and SCVMC Rehabilitation for having me this past month. Special shoutout to Stanford Office of Diversity In Medical Education’s SCORE Program, which I found out about through RiR, for supporting me and many other URM med students across all fields!

I recently penned an article for NEJM on the SCOTUS decision on Affirmative Action and the importance of diversity in medicine.

In addition, I appeared on their podcast to discuss opportunities for achieving a diverse student body and workforce.
