"You should never tell the patient there's nothing you can do. I may not be able to offer surgery, but I can talk to the patient. I can provide empathy. When you say there's nothing you can do, you are abandoning your responsibility as a human being." -Dr. Salem @YaleSurgery

Dr. Perkal was the first resident at Yale to become a mom and still finish surgical training. When she told her dept chair about her pregnancy, she was told “congrats, but we’re really sorry you aren’t going to be a surgeon”….she refused to accept that response!

@NNkinsi @YaleSurgRes ! ~1/3 of our residents buy homes and probably another 1/3 rent houses. New Haven is a great little city to live in but also has really pretty (and affordable!) suburbs, plus resident salaries are reasonably high so we all can live quite comfortably.

Sure, losing an hour of sleep is kind of painful, but tonight I have to convince my toddler to go to bed an hour earlier. Pray for me.

@kadtraumamd @knudson_peggy @ZSFGCare @traumadoctors She probably won’t remember this, but @knudson_peggy first inspired me to pursue a career in surgery back when I was in elementary school and she spoke to my Girl Scout troop about being a trauma surgeon. I just thought that must be the coolest job anyone could ever have🥰

I’ve spent >$300 on application fees over the past month and still don’t have a place to live in @CityofSeattle . I appreciate the “first in time” rental law’s goal to reduce bias, but seems like it just favors those who have the time & money to apply for everything

Surgeons have a great power to cure-for many of us that's exactly why we chose this field-but surgery also cuts some lives short, long before their time. It's our duty to reflect on systematic drivers of surgical mortality and find ways to provide the safest care possible (2/2)

@YaleSurgery hosted a virtual paint night 👨🏻‍🎨👩🏻‍🎨 for it's residents during #ResidentAppreciationWeek ! I think we should probably stick to doing what we do best, but at least we had good time🤣

I was thrilled to have my masters thesis work accepted by @AcadMedJournal but I am shocked and honored to discover that someone else actually read my manuscript and felt it was important enough to write more about it 🥰🥰🥰

@DrSomedayMaybe You actually might get $18/hr as a resident. Depending on how you calculate it, our interns make pretty close to that. Our GME office has amazing resident advocates so we’ve gotten big pay increases the past few years.
