“Hi, today’s my first time taking care of this patient, so I’m not sure. Let me check the chart and talk to them, and I can circle back with you to address your question/concern” Covering is a reality, but is that so hard?

Can someone explain why you need a letter of medical necessity for a pediatric heart transplant evaluation? Do insurance companies think a kid is going to get a heart transplant for fun or that it’s not potentially life threatening? Please explain!

There are three types of people at work: co-workers, colleagues, and friends. They are not all the same. Triage appropriately, don’t overshare, and not everyone deserves to be your friend.

Great talk by Manu Varma at The ISHLT on the role of new donor heart transport devices in pediatric heart transplant patients. #MedTwitter PHTSociety ACTION NYU Grossman School of Medicine NYU Langone Health #ISHLT2024

Thank you The ISHLT #ISHLT2024 for “main staging” these critically important topics!

Transplant surgery saved my life 5 years ago. Today, I chair AST’s Transplant Community Advisory Council and work as an intensivist & OPO med director. This gift 🫀 means the world to me. #ATC2024philly

Between the five of us, we can handle transplant surgery, ICU + outpatient care, and transplant diagnostics. 🤣 Here are a few of my colleagues & recipients aka #DocsWithTransplants (Yes, all of us are physicians with organ transplants!) #medtwitter

It’s been fantastic to form a community with this amazing group of #DocsWithTransplants and to see that we’re not alone! Pictured are just a handful of the ones who also work in transplant, but our group includes the full range of specialties, types of careers, and organs!

Pediatric Fellowship Graduation: Cardiology Fellows: They worked so hard during their time. One was even on call last night. Every other fellow: They’re an amazing person outside of work. They even had 20 publications.

Let me let you in on a little secret about 1990s nostalgia: you don't miss Blockbuster or dine-in Pizza Hut. You miss analog life with other people who weren't distracted and were really present to enjoy mundane moments with you.

Would do my best to not armchair quarterback and see if I or the team needed sedation first!

Continuity of care by the same doc is all I want if I am ever sick and in the hospital.

What it’s like to be in healthcare right now: “We will pay you $2 for that pie” “But it costs me $4 in pie ingredients and $2 in human labor to make a pie. We need $6 to break even” “Sorry, we’ll only pay you $2 for that pie. We suggest you make many more pies that you also

IMGS like myself who struggled to get into training in the US will NEVER take it for granted. Didactics, ID confrence and transplant rounds. Having all this knowledge poured into ur brain I go to bed early so I dont miss a word my attending say it is a previlge to train here

Cardiology fellows: as you finalize your apps for Adv HF & Transplant fellowships, we hope you will consider NYU Langone Health - right in the ♥️ of NYC 🗽 - High-volume, dual- and even triple-organ txp 🔥 - Great faculty, tons of teaching 🔥 - Xenotransplant, novel MCS platforms 🔥
