Closing out 2025 with an incredible honor - I was the recipient of the Dr. Ed Roberson Award, chosen by my fellow physicians for my contributions to HCA Houston Healthcare Northwest. In a fun twist, COVID catch-up means that the 2024 award was also given out this year, to my brilliant colleague and dear friend, Dr. Elizabeth Fair. And, my partner and mentor (and Dr. Ed Award winner in 2021) .philipleggett received his 40 year service award. 🏆😷👩🏻‍⚕️

If you’ve had surgery with me at the hospital, chances are, your family has been guided to the waiting room by this amazing woman. She may have even tracked them down in the cafeteria for me after your surgery. 🤣 Congratulations, Clina, on your Heart & Sole award! (Not a typo, she gets a pair of custom Nike x Northwest sneakers!)

Demoing the new electronic medical record for my physician colleagues today in the newly renovating Physicians Dining Room. A little project to occupy my spare time 😂 😷🤦🏻‍♀️that is out of my usual wheelhouse, but I’m enjoying the process and looking forward to our Go-Live date of October 9th!

People under age 50 have been appearing increasingly at doctors’ offices in the past few decades, complaining of blood in their stool, abdominal trouble or unexplained weight loss.

The diagnosis: colorectal cancer. And by that time, it was often too late.

But that paradigm is finally starting to shift, at least for patients in their 40s.

There has been a jump in people aged 45 to 49 getting screened for colorectal cancer, after recent medical guidelines lowered the screening age for those at average risk.

As a result, the disease is being caught sooner, when it is more curable and the treatment is less grueling, according to new research from the American Cancer Society.

It’s the end of July so it’s that time of year again. We’re going to really miss this one, although our patients even more so! Congratulations on your graduation, Dr. DeKerlegand! Your new patients are so lucky to have you! .philipleggett

An amazing 249th birthday for the USA! 🇺🇸 My favorite radiologist won this auction item for me at the Houston Symphony Ball earlier this year and it was even better than I expected! I had quick tutorial from beforehand. And, I got to meet who is an semifinalist but more importantly, she’s a NURSE! 🏥 Last is the video of the Liberty Bell March. I rehearsed in my car during my commute for the past two weeks for that one, but conducting the Star Spangled Banner was a last second surprise for me 🤯🎶😷

It’s been a busy spring, but I’d be amiss if I didn’t celebrate catching up these legends of surgery from my residency training! Met an amazing keynote speaker, Sir Murray Brennan GNZM, MD, FACS, and inducted the new graduates into the Cohn Rives Surgical Society. 😷👩🏻‍⚕️

Front desk left a message for me last week - this is why I love my job! Especially because Mr. S decided to stop by again this week and we were able to catch up for a few minutes between clinic patients. 💕
