Humbled to contribute to this important piece by.@SmithDanaG in the @nytimes alongside leaders in the field Dr. Mellinger, @DrLoomba, @RJWong333 . #ALD is on the rise. Prevention, early detection, and timely treatment are key to changing this trend.

Honored to work at a center that values evidence-based care for our patients with #ALD - thank you and congrats to @HershShroff for paving the way for multidisciplinary ALD care @UNCLiverCenter.
Excited to share the launch of a multi-disciplinary clinic at UNC for individuals with liver disease related to alcohol. This has been very rewarding/exciting for me, both personally and professionally. Thanks to all who’ve supported me (too many to name)!. #livertwitter

Honored to have published this letter to the editor at @GIE_Journal with mentors @UNCGastro on changing unacceptable "master and slave" terminology in the description of robot-assisted endoscopic platforms. Language matters. #GItwitter #MedTwitter.

Excellent reporting by @nytimes @jbsgreenberg @sarahkliff on @nyulangone #NYU #NYULangone This article grapples with very real questions and concerns about healthy equity, with an ever-widening wealth gap in our country. #medtwitter #healthequity #equity.
🚨 NEW: NYU Langone's emergency room has been secretly allowing the rich, even those with minor complaints, to jump ahead of everyone else. Meanwhile, the poor sometimes struggle to be seen. @sarahkliff and I dug into this two-tiered system of care.
