Comments implying that DOs are not medical doctors could not be further from the truth. DOs currently make up approximately 11% of the physician workforce and 25% of all U.S medical students. Read more: bit.ly/3uEMoCj @TheView @sunny #DOProud

A flagrant violation of the corporate practice of medicine prohibitions in >30 states yet organized medicine, state boards and AGs stand idly by. Only @aaeminfo and @TakeMedBack have truly stepped forward to fight CPOM. @AmerMedicalAssn

The advocacy efforts at DO Day on Capitol Hill are already paying off as the U.S. House of Representatives Energy and Commerce Committee recently approved a historic reauthorization of the THCGME Program. #DOProud #OsteopathicMedicine

Toxicologists: “All things are poison and nothing is without poison. Solely the dose determines that a thing is not a poison.” Also toxicologists: Give your hemodynamically unstable CCB OD patient a 1000U IV insulin bolus followed by 100U/hr. It’ll be fine.

I made a bot because I like to tinker and there's way too much wrong info about fentanyl exposures. If you mention @FentanylSafety, within 5-10 minutes it will automatically reply to you and the original poster with a link to accurate information. cc @RyanMarino @jtrebach

Hi @RepRoybalAllard! You have already done so much for mothers and I’m hoping we can push for more change at the @TSA together! I know the TSA will be defending their budget request before your subcommittee THIS Weds - can you raise this issue of traveling mothers w/ them?
