It is a gift to work within the birthing space. And still, I am consistently appalled by some of the trauma shared and observed. Please read and support Kelley’s story ❤️ Almost a statistic: gofund.me/ca529e28

These past 2 weeks bonding with my co-interns have been incredible. I’m so lucky to start this journey with such an amazing group. @dukeobgyn 💙

I have been Dr. LaMani D. Adkins, MD for a month now and it still feels like a dream. God has been SO good to me. #firstgen #obgyn

Now that the Match Day high is finally starting to wear off and the reality that I’m really moving is setting in, I’d like to repost my #MGWL. Seriously, any contributions to help this OBGYN headed to Detroit is beyond appreciated! amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2E…

Yesterday, I didn’t have the words to express the feels. But my village came through. (just a snippet of the love felt and received) I matched #ObGyn! A dream come true. Let’s goooo! Matthew 17:20. #mountains #match2022 #OBGYNmatch2022
