This is long overdue. So many of our patients with spasticity use marijuana therapeutically - hope this change will enable quality research and result in some helpful clinical guidelines and dosing info.

Doctors and nurses who speak up for patient safety often face retaliation. It's important that those behind it are held accountable for their actions. Glad they were in this case. More work to do. msn.com/en-us/news/us/…

Couldn’t agree more! Too many talented med students are not matching into residency at a time when it’s critical that we train more physicians.

Eager to complete a peer to peer with Oscar for a man who really needs auth for inpatient rehab. Was told the only time available this week is tomorrow at 7:30 pm. Want to be a strong advocate for my patients, but should also be able to address this during my workday!

Cutting Medicare payments to physicians is an extraordinarily bad idea. More MD/DOs leaving the workforce or dropping Medicare will extend patient wait times (already too long!) I wrote to my Congressional representatives and hope others do the same.
