Glad to see @AmCollSurgeons continuing to advocate on this issue. I'd encourage all physicians impacted by th @CMSGov "efficiency adjustment" to reach out to their representatives. @SurgeonsVoice is a super convenient way to do so. See link and flyer. https://t.co/dc17KSWUJl

How are #HPB/#surgonc surgeons coding NETs? It creates a confusing situation for pts & docs when we use “benign neuroendocrine tumor” codes for WD NETs. Is this a situation where coding just hasn’t caught up? @NANETS1 @JMaxCutsNETs @HalletJulie @AGangiMD @DrCNClarke

One of the hardest clinical situations for me is the patient with carcinomatosis/metastatic disease on chemotherapy who comes in with potential abdominal catastrophe/need for emergency surgery - particularly when Avastin is involved…

HUGE news for Athens. Gov. Kemp just announced UGA will have its own medical school. Thanks to President Morehead, Gov. Kemp & so many others who made this happen. The funding process will begin in this year’s state budget—I look forward to supporting this historic initiative.

I just realized that song @UGARedcoatBand plays on third down is “Dies Irae,” which feels very appropriate
