What an incredible class!! So excited to work with you guys next year 😊 Welcome to the Stanford Surgery family!

As we reflect on the last few weeks, we still struggle to accept the tragic loss of our talented, intelligent, and promising intern Dr. Nakita Mortimer. Last night, our interns and residents organized a beautiful memorial service to celebrate Nakita's life.

I just found out the person killed in the Laguna Woods shooting yesterday was my primary care physician, Dr. John Cheng. Absolute hero. He attacked the gunman and helped save so many in that church. I just wanted his name to be known. He will be missed.

At least 17 people were wounded in a shooting in downtown Milwaukee on Friday night, blocks from the arena where an NBA playoff game ended hours earlier, the police said. The victims were all expected to survive, the police said. nyti.ms/3sAT0hc

I wanted food.
I left the Bucks game early.
4th quarter.
They were losing.
I thought, no big deal.
At that moment, I saw an entire shooting unfold before my eyes.
I thought it was fireworks.
Until I saw a person on the ground.
Milwaukee…you’ve broken my heart.
You’ve broken me.
