Tennesseeās new āHouse rulesā for the special session clarify that small paper signs are no longer allowed in committee rooms, but guns are. This is INSANE!
āWords have always been the basis of the relationship between doctors and patients. If our language is failing us, itās because our training has.ā Stunning essay by ā¦@SunitaPuriMDā© in ā¦@NewYorkerā©. #MedEd must focus more on communication. newyorker.com/news/the-weekeā¦
āAs clinicians, we can separate our clinical assessment (needing intubation) from the deliberation about whether intubation should be done. We assume that patients and families follow our logic and recognize these distinctions.ā ā excellent read on communication!

I'm a pediatrician so there's some basic stuff I know. What's NOT bad for kids? Rainbow clothes Spacious swimsuit bottoms Stories & poems Learning the history of your country Gender affirming healthcare What IS bad for kids? School shootings Teaching them to hate Easy peasy!
There is something REALLY wrong with a hospital system expecting its doctors and nurses to care for children with bullet holes in them but not allowing those same people to advocate for gun violence prevention. Your politics are showing. Do better.
What I want for #MothersDay: ā¢to send my children to school without the haunting fear of violence ⢠for my daughter to grow up with bodily autonomy ⢠a parental leave system that reflects the vital role of parenthood ⢠a sustainable, functional healthcare system
The time honored tradition of faculty cooking breakfast for all of our wonderful ā¦@VUMCPICUā© nurses. We are so appreciative of the compassionate care you provide our patients and their families. We have the best team!! #thankyounurses
This month in the US, people were shot for ringing the wrong doorbell, getting into the wrong car, using a leaf blower, delivering food to the wrong address, driving into the wrong driveway, and for asking a neighbor to stop shooting so a baby could sleep. Itās the fucking guns.
The music major in me loves this!! #STEAM
You can be pro-second amendment and pro 1. Universal background checks 2. Red flag laws 3. Gun permit laws These are not mutually exclusive
So proud of this powerful pediatrician-advocate for kids in our community and across our country! #thisisourlane

My daughter=blowing bubbles She doesnāt know why weāre here, but the lack of action for decades against gun violence means she will soon. She doesnāt know I see the effects of gun violence on kids+families regularly @ work as a peds intensivist. I hope she will never has to.

Our PICU family has witnessed the devastating impact of gun violence on children for too long. We are proud to link arms for change with ā¦@voices4saferTNā© and call for gun safety legislation in TN #saferTN #endgunviolence
