Here's a new one: Patient tells me insurance will pay for only 30 armodafinil every 90 days. Because narcolepsy only causes sleepiness 1/3 of the time, right? ๐คฆโโ๏ธ๐คฏ. I'm now begging insurance companies to stop discriminating against patients with #narcolepsy ! #profitsoverpatients
Having a great time with some amazing colleagues at American Academy of Neurology headquarters in Minneapolis for the Neurology Today Editorial Board meeting.
Excited to kick off this upcoming residency interview season and learn about all the great people applying to #neurology !
To review each application thoughtfully, our program Duke Neurology will be taking a few weeks to review applications before sending out interview offers!
Thank you Nupur Goel, MD, A. Blake Buletko, MD, and the The Neurophilia Podcast team for inviting me to participate in this awesome podcast. #choosesleep
No better day than #RLSawarenessday to remind everyone that dopamine agonists are dangerous and no longer first line therapy for RLS in most scenarios. Best therapy for RLS = iron. Get the iron level up to have any chance at relief.
What a great night chatting with 90+ soon-to-be neurologists! If you missed the Duke Neurology info session tonight, not to worry. It was recorded and we will post it on our website soon. NeurologyMATCH2024 Suma Shah Katie Moore, MD MSc Deborah Rose

Honored to be invited to contribute to this issue. To all the Neurology residents out there, I hope you #choosesleep !
Moves to dismantle or defund DEI programs set off alarm bells and left a big question: how can neurology departments promote #diversity in light of the mandates? bit.ly/44R1i5O
