Dr. Audrey Cook used to say this to us on clinical rotation, I didn't realize it was a common saying in medicine (animal & human)
Why would I need a haunted house when I can just google my prognosis
I'd second that
In the spirit of #BreastCancerAwareness, BCBS IL also constantly denies life saving treatments for breast cancer patients causing unnecessary delays and compromising patient outcomes.

I’m an oncologist with a kid in high school biology so I spend my day trying to break the cell cycle, then I come home and the cell cycle breaks me

@DFCI_BreastOnc You forgot to mention that he's the best oncologist ever (I may be biased)
Our Specialist Spotlight this week is on Dr Philip Poorvu, oncologist @DanaFarber and Instructor @harvardmed. He researches fertility preservation, survivorship and the use of genomic risk prediction assays and predictive biomarkers in #breastcancer. dana-farber.org/find-a-doctor/…

Feeling hopeful 👏 so happy to see this bill signed into law
Later today, with the signing of the Inflation Reduction Act into law, we make history.
This is a reminder that public health in the US eventually and fundamentally defaults to 'individual health' and that is the first mistake.
I hesitate to criticize CDC. It is full of bright, hardworking career scientists, & critique of policy gets conflated with critique of them. That said, I find the latest #COVIDguidance flawed. It sacrifices the vulnerable, offers false reassurance, & ignores inconvenient data.
The @CDCgov doubles down on its flawed, not evidence based Covid recommendations with a new guidance document 1. Leaves fully vaccinated = 2 shots, stay "up to date" 2. Leaves isolation at 5 days w/o rapid tests 3. Pushes "community levels" when real info is "transmission levels"
“I may be biased, but there’s no better way to learn how to improve the life of a cancer patient —whether through treatment choices, knowledge or support—than to see where patients themselves put their efforts,” @Martha__Carlson Read this 👇🏻 #bcsm curetoday.com/view/patient-a…

Still remember having to visit the A&E on my honeymoon and feeling certain that they would bill me since I wasn't a UK citizen. Nope, it was just...free. They really did give me a weird look when I asked about it.

While closing screening gaps & #cancer risk reduction are vital, metastatic disease is claiming lives right now. In my specialty (#breastcancer) alone, we lose 40K ppl per yr, which is 40K too many. Please aim for progress across the whole #OncTwitter spectrum, #cancerMoonshot.
Today @FLOTUS and an expanded Cancer Cabinet meet to unveil new priority actions for @POTUS #CancerMoonshot. Check out how we are making progress on ending cancer as we know it: whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…
