Congratulations to our soon-to-be interns! We can’t wait for you to join our family!!! @NU_IntMed @NUFeinbergMed

Great MR with @macwalterMD and Previn! A patient with cirrhosis found down…the ddx is endless. Keep salicylate poisoning in mind with a predominant resp alkalosis but a large AGMA, and intubate carefully when a patient is compensating severe metabolic acidosis! #NMPearl

So special to be joined by @dianebwayne for a great talk on How to Give a Great Talk. Between the engaging stories, clear and limited learning objectives, and early end-time, it checked all the boxes and was a must-not-miss!

That's a lot of ketones! Great case this morning with Dr. Glowala and Dr. Walter. Bronchiectasis must be differentiated as intrinsic vs traction. Intrinsic has an important ddx you have to work through - CF can fall through the cracks and be diagnosed late!

It’s a beautiful day to start residency. Good luck to our new interns on Day 1! Proud of our new PGY-2s for their hard work all year - no doubt they are ready to be seniors, a big transition. So fortunate for the leadership of our rising PGY-3s. It’s going to be a great year!

Graduating PGY-3’s partying at the beach 🥳🥳🥳 We miss them already!!!

Sad to see our incredible PGY-3 class depart on their final day. The last group with in-person interviews, reliving that day with @ginoseast for lunch. We can't wait to see the incredible things you do in the years to come!

Congratulations to the Class of 2023! We are so proud of all these residents and are excited to see what they will achieve next! #Classof2023 #NorthwesternMedicine 💜🎓

There's a New Scrubs Smell in the air. Welcome to our interns!!!

Incredible Grand Rounds highlighting a fantastic year in the Department of Medicine. Congratulations to all the award winners! The look back couldn't come at a better time - we can't wait to welcome our new interns for bootcamp tomorrow!

Happy Juneteenth! We hosted a special noon conference led by @Asantewaa_IM that explored the history of Black health disparities and their long-standing impact. Important to recognize the perspective of our patients and always care for people as individuals

Guess who I ran into this morning at #ENDO2023 @TheEndoSociety but ⁦@KristenLeeMD⁩ ⁦@NUIM_Chiefs⁩ ⁦@NU_IntMed⁩ the inaugural E . Dale Abel award winner. She is a future #endocrinologist, How random is this?

Thank you @RoopalKundu for excellent teaching on identifying and treating dermatologic diseases in skin of color. PCPs are often the first point of contact - we must provide equitable care for our patients!

A highlight of my week was finally getting a selfie with the hospital robots… but biggest highlight is that the PGY3s are graduating tonight! @NU_IntMed #MedEd #graduation2023 💜

Thank you to all who joined for MR celebrating Pride! Delicious pastries from Chicago Sugar Daddy Patisserie, and a big shout out to @BiancaLavelle for the work she does for transgender & gender diverse patients - lucky to learn from and work with you! Happy Pride Month! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Previn led a fantastic MR this morning on MDA5-associated dermatomyositis. Don't be fooled if muscle symptoms are mild or absent. Many thanks to Dr. Santoiemma for the A+ teaching on workup and encouraging us to trust our gut when infection is low on the ddx!

Thank you to @areshasays from @UofC for an amazing talk on social and structural determinants of health, with special attention to the Latino/a community in Chicago!

What a case! @Asantewaa_IM and Dr. Fletcher took us on a journey covering management of adrenal insufficiency, severe hypoNa, and the grey areas of patient care. 🔑 to address SDoH and do patient-centered capacity evals. Meet patients where they are!

Final #WomensHealth Journal Club of the year with Dr. Priya Mehta! A fantastic discussion of delivery-associated cardiac arrest, and a great reminder that interests have a huge role to play in caring for our patients during their pregnancies

Great case conference with @AnthonyPensa and Dr. Cheema! Fantastic refresher on the ever boards-forward nephrotic syndrome. FSGS and membranous nephropathy are the most common glomerular-first etiologies, but the ddx is long. What a ride!
