Airing tonight on @KPIXtv, a moving story and a reminder of why I’m so proud to be at a place like @UCSF. Fetal surgery was pioneered right here nearly 40 years ago. #UCSFProud
Our patient Shannon's incredible story will air on @KPIXtv at 6:30 p.m. this Sunday! Shannon was pregnant when our doctors discovered both she and her baby had life-threatening illnesses. Our care team pushed the boundaries of medicine to save mom and child.

If this Congress won’t act to protect our kids, we must empower the next generation of voters to elect one that will. Join our effort to engage, register, and mobilize young voters ahead of the 2018 elections at ourlivesourvote.com.

As my wonderful son @KTylerAnderson would say “Definitely a first world problem!” But @united if you charge me for WiFi on a flight so I can be productive, it would be great to have, you know, a WiFi signal more than 20% of the time....just saying – at Indiana, USA
