Reminder to self:

Success in medicine is not board scores or knowledge base or publications. It’s continuing to serve those who need you when everything everyday pulls you towards serving the system instead.

BIG Congrats homie Kamaal A. Jones, MD, FAAP welcome back to the east coast!!😎

Pediatric residents from our Boston Combined Residency Program visited the statehouse to meet with legislators.

We're proud our residents advocate for our patients & for solutions to address the root causes of medical issues & longstanding inequities throughout our city.

The @snma AMEC was always one of the best weekends as a medical student, and it feels even better to reignite that spirit in the next generation of doctors. Had a great time catching up with old friends/mentors, eating Cajun cuisine, and exploring NOLA! #AMEC2024 #MedTwitter

Sallie Permar MD PhD and I just published this today in STAT. #pediatricians are the foundation of our health care system and have an impact over the life course of our nation's health care. We make a difference!! AMSPDC American Board of Pediatrics (ABP) APPD Mark Del Monte, JD

Big welcome to one of our new interns! Please help support her journey to residency and Boston! 🎉💃🏾👶🏽👩🏾‍⚕️

Beyond honored and humbled to be the keynote speaker at The Student National Medical Association (SNMA)’s AMEC 2024 Opening Ceremony this week! Can’t wait to meet all our future Black physicians!! You all give me so much hope.

If the ACGME actually cared about medical resident well being, they wouldn’t allow for 24 hour work shifts.

Ask any patient if they want a doctor on their 23rd hour.

why residency program tabling at SNMA’s annual AMEC is an invaluable diversity recruitment & retention tool for URiM students and residents: a brief thread 🧵 …

Feb 8 is #NationalBlackWomenPhysiciansDay ! A day to celebrate Dr. Rebecca Lee Crumpler, the first Black woman to graduate medical school in the U.S. in 1864, and all who paved the way for us.

But let's not forget... today, in 2024, still only 2% of physicians are Black women.

So excited @TheBCRP had an in person second look this year, got to meet some of the amazing applicants we interviewed this morning in real and so excited for the future of pediatrics!🥰🥳

Congratulations Eli!!🎉🥳

If anyone knows any other 2024 New Century Scholars tag them so we can all connect👀. We started a 2024 Group Chat.

One of the many reasons I love The Student National Medical Association (SNMA) . Meeting some wonderful aspiring pre-medical/medical students and connecting with homies I’ve met along the way training. 🤩💜 #RMEC #Region1 Jocelyn McGill Preston Igwe, MD
