'At issue is a once widely used test that overestimated how well Black people’s kidneys were functioning, making them look healthier than they really were — all because of an automated formula that calculated results for Black and non-Black patients differently'. #MedX #eGFR

Congratulations!

Purple #epilepsy tulips from a grateful patient. This made my morning, as it's #HolyWeek and I haven't been able to stop and reflect because of the demands of call. Tulips are a symbol of Easter and rebirth and this gift reminded me to take time to enjoy the beauty of life.

Thanks Debbie Ferguson McKenzie OLY!

Purple Day is an international effort dedicated to increasing awareness about epilepsy worldwide.
