The suicide rate among physicians is the highest among any profession, and more than double that of the general population. Nearly every doctor graduates from residency with some degree of PTSD, and no one wants to talk about it.

Hip hip hooray! We officially received our surgical loupes 👓 and are grateful for our wonderful loupe honorees Drs. Rogers and Natuzzi!
What a spectacular celebration of @UCSFSurgery! Our PGY2s were gifted their surgical loupes, each in honor of one of our accomplished alumni. This is one of our favorite traditions, connecting our new trainees with our program’s distinguished history. @UCSF_Naffziger

So wonderful for our Chair of Surgery @Jasosamd and @PheoSurgeon to invite us to their home, take us on a beautiful hike in Sonoma, swim in the pool with Twinkie (dog), and treat us to delicious food and drinks! 🙏🏽 @UCSFSurgery @UCSFGSResidency @KaraFaktor @KSantosParker

As I stroll on TikTok, I keep seeing parents video their children reacting to The Little Mermaid trailer. So instead of focusing so much on the negative, I thought I’d show a thread of the little black kids who are excited to see their favorite princess look like them.

I may be biased but I think this cointern is the best 😍 I’m so lucky to also call him best friend and hubby!
Now that we are approaching the end of the academic year, it's time to revive our #newinternspotlight (or maybe #notsonewintern?) series with Keli Santos-Parker (@KSantosParker)! See 🧵 to learn more.
