I know Ky, and she's pretty incredible. This is a reminder that over 60% of those who detransition will likely retransition later in life.

This is yet another similarity the political detrans movement has with the ex-gay movement.

2 yrs ago, I posted a TikTok video about Pulse Oximeters. For decades, they haven't worked as well on darker skin tones. My video received over 200K views and started my 'Racial Bias in Medicine' series.

Today a FDA advisory committee is finally convening to address the problem!

Breaking news: I found more fentanyl at work this morning than I did last night in my child’s Trick-or-Treat candy bucket!

I’m really sick of so many people thinking LGBT topics aren’t appropriate for kids. If there had been even one adult in my life during my childhood who told me it’s ok to be gay I wouldn’t have hated myself for so many years

Dear Attendings,

Yes.
Also, saves you from guessing it the 'wrong way' which is sometimes flattering but also is just annoying as a patient to deal with.
Reminds me of my fave way to end my pre-ops,'is there anything I didn't ask about your child's health that you think is impt for me to know?

Today my attending took time to say, “it does not matter what scores you get, how many times you have to attempt a test, where you went to school; your setbacks do not define you- only your mindset to keep learning does’ #residency #medicine

Rockstar elevator encounter with Cesar Padilla, M.D.! Always great to chat and catch up whether in the elevator or when you pass my cubicle! 🤩

There is no amount of research that will suffice for the politicians banning gender-affirming care. They don't ban this care because it's untested or ineffective (which it isn't). They want to ban it because its purpose is keeping trans people alive and it works.

Florida pulls up fake experts to testify for medically detransitioning all trans youth.

This one claims '50-90% of trans youth detransition'

Multiple studies came out as recent as yesterday showing only 2% do.

Laidlaw is tied to ADF, the org responsible for anti abortion laws.

This project has been incredibly exciting and in the works since May/June. Stats are even greater now, with all the work of the Women in Anesthesiology MSC. Looking forward to more! 🙋🏽‍♀️

A dark day for trans youth.

Florida Board of Medicine has just voted to ban gender affirming care for all trans teenagers.

They cut the hearing early and told activists to 'email them.'

I cry for Florida's trans youth. This was a sham hearing with fake experts.
