The Virginia Medical Review contacted me for an interview. They didn’t hold back. We discussed what it was like going though residency as a cancer patient and running a private practice while being a mom. #doctor #mother #cancersurvivor vamedreview.org/2021/02/interv…

USC Keck student who recently asked for help told me last week that 20 students in his class are suicidal. Cause of death not released yet on Cordell as far as I know.

Hospitals need to stop abusing residents. Even in a crisis, residents need to be treated humanely. I worry about physician burnout & deaths from these unfair and unsafe policies. ⁦@PamelaWibleMD⁩ ⁦@cirseiu⁩ ⁦@uw_housestaff⁩ #medtwitter reddit.com/r/Residency/co…

What if giving had a basic reproduction number (R0) of 3? Try this: pick 3 loved ones (those out of a job right now) and buy each a gift card (to a local small business that is currently shut down). Let this spread! #giving #covid #covid19 #support #economy #coronavirus

Doctors are SO scared to lose their jobs & have mental health reported to medical boards that this is how they email me! (Peter is now a good friend but just saw this & remembered how FREAKED out he was when he contacted me in 2018). #medtwitter #medstudenttwitter #NurseTwitter

#Burnout is a complete mental and physical collapse from overwork. Psychiatrists define it as “a job-related dysphoria in an individual without major psychopathy.” Which means—your job sucks. You’re normal. #medtwitter #medstudenttwitter (applies to nurses too) #NurseTwitter

Residents should never be shamed for asking for help- especially when their lives are on the line. Safe rides home should not be a place to cut corners. thestranger.com/slog/2019/11/2… @uw_housestaff @PamelaWibleMD

"All newly qualified doctors encounter sexism, racism and verbal, physical and sexual abuse, as well as extremes of distress, rage and despair. They are in a highly stressful working environment where mistakes may prove fatal to their patients & career." theguardian.com/society/2019/o…

Today is #WorldSuicidePreventionDay. On average, one person dies from suicide every 40 seconds. If you or someone you know is struggling, ask for help... it's okay to talk about it.

On #WorldSuicidePreventionDay, a reminder. Mental health is like physical health: it’s not always binary, sick vs healthy. It can be in between. It takes effort. If you feel unwell, reach out. If you think someone else is unwell, reach out. I love you guys. ❤️

Three years ago I, with the help of @Care2 and @PamelaWibleMD held the National Day of Solidarity to Prevent Physician and Med Student Suicide in Washington, DC to help raise awareness of the medical community’s suicide epidemic. @emilywspeaks
