Another Monday, another medical misconception 🤓

💊 Opioids are easy to prescribe but hard to stop. And when they are used for chronic non-cancer related pain, the risks > benefits. Your pain is valid, but treatment should be safe and evidence based.

I’ve always hated being micromanaged and appreciated the managers when I was in consulting who allowed me to make mistakes and grow in a safe space.

Medicine often feels different, and I wish that more leaders (in academia or admin) recognize that micromanaging is control without support, and nobody thrives under that environment. Instead, trust in your people and give them the chance to rise to the occasion!

What’s your take?

Be yourself and practice with integrity, so you can build the patient-physician relationships that feel like a true partnership 💛 What is your philosophy with patient care?

Running involves so much more than running!

When I was looking for a coach, I wanted somebody who wasn’t just going to make a running schedule for me. Because continued running with poor biomechanics will only lead to injury over time and affect your performance. My left leg has always been weaker, and I knew that if I wanted to do a marathon in the near future, I needed to be serious about rehabilitation.

This running analysis was so worth it, and it provided me with a lot of areas for improvement. Change will always take patience and time, but I’m excited to see my progress.

So if you’re also a casual runner like me and value progress over perfection, then stay for the fun, sweat, and occasional running rants!

What patients don’t see or realize is the amount of time we spend on reviewing or signing off paperwork – during our lunch breaks, in between our clinic schedule, or even after work. This is on top of the labs and patient messages we get on the portal every day. Your visit may be 15 min, but your doctors work tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure you get the care you need!

Mondays are for talking about medical misconceptions 🤓

Unexpected emergencies can happen at any age, and I believe that in order to preserve our autonomy and voice, we should be open to having these tough conversations with the people we love.
