Last day of medical school today! Closed out med school today the same way I hope to spend my career—learning from and contributing to a community passionate about trauma surgery. Honored to spend it at CWIS in Atlanta.

Hard to find many societies that balance science with commaraderie like CWIS, even less that “gift” an alpaca to President Babak Sarani after his inspiring Presidential Address #CWISummit2025 SarahAnn Whitbeck

Great presidential address CWIS by Dr. Babak Sarani - Passion with compassion, and how a servant leader brings their team to the core of the focus, not themselves…. A good address should inspire all of us to be better, and this one hit the mark.

I am thankful for accomplishments born of hard work, study & heart—this 1 is so meaningful! When I started NYU Langone Hospital—Long Island, the #trauma surgeons didn’t do chest operations & I changed that with protest, protocols & great outcomes, helping many patients along the way! #DOproud

A truly brilliant few days in Atlanta at the CWIS summit. I can’t believe I STUMBLed on this conference (pun intended). Ridiculously inspirational number of people met, thank you so much to all who put up with my terrible puns. Already can’t wait for next year CWIS thanks!
