I am so fortunate to have chosen #CancerRehab as my #physiatry subspecialty. My patients bring me joy and inspire me, allowing me to see every day as a gift not to be taken for granted.
My @CancerRehabDocs
colleagues have built an amazing national Cancer rehab med organization and it's been so great to see this group include anyone with a passion for cancer rehab from trainees to retirees and push our specialty forward

Hey rising 4th year #physiatry hopefuls! I’m an incoming PGY-1 at @auugamp who will be starting an advanced program at @UofLPMR next summer. I have some hot tips for you to help navigate the prelim vs TY conundrum and share some of my experience in the process
You will apply to categorical (PGY1 - PGY4) and advanced (PGY2-PGY4) positions. More programs are advanced than categorical, so you will apply to transitional years (“TY”) and prelim medicine years (“prelim”) for your supplemental rank list.
“TY or prelim?” - your preference. Many TYs have surgical floor experience and other electives. Some TYs are known to be chill. Prelim medicine will be lots of floors and ICU. Talk to residents to find out about culture bc this was less clear on my prelim/TY interviews.
Dear #MedTwitter,
Please do not make statements assuming a person with a major disability has a poor quality of life. This is ableism.

St. David’s Doctor: “So as of right now, his quality of life - he doesn’t have much of one.”
Melissa: “What do you mean? Because he’s paralyzed with a brain injury he doesn’t have quality of life?”
St. David’s Doctor: “Correct”
