Very proud to finally have this important review published in @crfshj. Big thank you to @AndreaScotti21 and @azeemlatib for their mentorship!

On my last day as chief I was also honored to present my mentor @UlrichJordeMD with a teaching award for subspecialist of the year as voted by the @montefioreIM house staff! So well deserved 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

That’s a wrap on chief year! Thankful for everyone who made it a rewarding year, both professionally and personally. T-minus 2 weeks til 🫀

Two more weeks of attending time in the books! Rifampin induced thrombocytopenia, necrotizing pancreatitis, bleeding ulcers, septic shock, and a LOT of influenza. Thankful for this team 🙌🏻

In the months that followed 9/11, when I was 6 years old, I made this placard that now hangs in my grandma’s house. A short 23 years of education and training later... I can finally say I am going to be a @MonteHeart doctor and a #MonteLifer! @EinsteinDeptMed @montefioreIM

Just finished my first two weeks as an attending on a busy general medical service - 45 patients over the 2 weeks - best part of chief year yet! @montefioreIM

Finally got to present a case I had saved from intern year! 22F with uncontrolled DM1, fever, and AMS - would you cover for listeria? 🧀🧠👀 – at Queens, NY

So proud of all my co-residents today. Time sure does fly. Big shoes to fill in next years match!

Today I finished spending 2 out of the last 3 months in my favorite place in the hospital: the CCU. Great patients, great co-residents & fellows, great attendings, but most importantly, the best nurses you’ll ever work with #MedTwitter @MonteHeart

Fantastic resource! @DrGalenMD

Thrilled to announce that I have been chosen as a @montefioreIM/@einsteinmed Chief Resident for the 2024-2025 year! Thank you to Dr. Serena Roth and @DrGalenMD for believing in me and giving me this opportunity! #Firm3BestFirm #MonteMade #MedEd

Had an incredible two days at NY POCUS getting hands-on, in-depth ultrasound experience - big thank you to @DrGalenMD for launching this track!
