When I started med school, I subscribed to the New England Journal of Medicine. Apart from published trials, case records are the world's treasure for education & help navigate clinical courses & differentials better than any class. A visual 🧵of selected cases #MedTwitter #MedX

So true!
The best physicians and leaders that I know are full of uncertainties and eager to learn from others. I truly believe we need to incentivize open and honest discussions across all learners to raise the bar in learning. And by learners I mean every single one of us!

This is advice is a gem 💎
For starters, know why your patient is in the hospital. Just saying “pneumonia” or “chest pain” is not enough. Those things, like many conditions, can be evaluated/managed without hospitalization. What led to the decision to hospitalize in this case?
