Really incredible article about an insurance company disciplining a doctor for following the standard of care.

Looks like their “experts” are just as bad as some of the most crooked plaintiff experts I see.

Humbled & honored to receive this just prior to attending the #ACLGIM Hess Institute at #SGIM24 in Boston. Thank you 🙏🏽 SGIM

GO or NO GO?! A Perioperative Medicine Summit favorite - fun and educational!

Day 2 of #periop2024 is officially underway with a very special tradition-the annual Dr. Frank Michota Memorial keynote lecture, given by Dr. Tyler Loftus Tyler Loftus this year: 'Artificial Intelligence in Surgery and Perioperative Medicine'

Man it really bothers me when people label certain specialty residency programs as “easy.” All it does is invalidate any mental/physical challenges trainees may have, and it’s just flat out wrong.

🙋‍♂️ We MUST improve perioperative nutrition!
