I had to get an urgent ❤️ transplant in the middle of #residency (last yr at age 30). I started a #blog on post-op day 7 🤪 & I update it every 2-4 weeks. Been a crazy ride ever since. THANK YOU for all of your support! #donatelife #hearttransplant

RIP David Lynch. I had no business watching your movies in middle school but I think they helped mold me into who I am today. A little weird, a little fun, a little dark. ☕️🥧
Six years of living with a heart transplant. Six years of hard work. Six years of laughs, beauty, & even some fun. Six years of accepting that this is my “new” normal, and that’s OK.
Thank you for your support, friends. Most importantly, thank you to my organ donor, Lucy. 🫀

Approx 6 years ago to the minute @AG_EM33 had her heart quite literally cut and removed from her chest and replaced a new. I'm grateful for her donor, surgeons, and her perseverance. Over the last two years she has become part of the fam and wonderful bonus mom to my 2 kiddos.

Aw jeez, not this again.
According to this consultant, hospitals now *lose* an average of $304,312 per physician per year.
🤦🏻
Guess it’s time for another thread on Budgetary Gerrymandering.

A new exciting book is coming up soon! 🔥
E. Argulian (Mount Sinai, NY) and H. Soliman (Harefield, London) join forces with the aim of reviving the art and exploring the secrets of Doppler echocardiography in the evaluation of haemodynamics of cardiac patients.

It’s been fantastic to form a community with this amazing group of #DocsWithTransplants and to see that we’re not alone! Pictured are just a handful of the ones who also work in transplant, but our group includes the full range of specialties, types of careers, and organs!

Different solid organs! @saltylungs @4_kidney and I started the “docs with transplants” group four years ago and we are at almost 70 members nowadays. 😎
Several different specialities/careers, different organ transplants, different countries.
