It was a huge honor to present our study on #GLP1 & endoscopy showing that holding #GLP1 prior to endoscopy may not be needed, 24 hrs clear liquid diet is better 💡 #ACG2024 late-breaking session. 🙏 to all co-authors: #JasonDominitz #FadiAntaki #AliAhmed #HeikoPohl #AaronYeoh

Wishing him the best during his #colorectalcancer journey. It has become a disease of those <50, & we must do all we can to prevent it, & treat it early in those who are diagnosed w/it.💙 James Van Der Beek says he has colorectal cancer | CNN cnn.com/2024/11/03/ent…

It took several days to count every ballot in 2020, and it’s very likely we won’t know the outcome tonight either. So please keep a few things in mind as you make your voice heard today: – Thousands of election workers around the country are working hard today. Respect them.

I don’t know where the dance world would be without Judith Jamison. Alvin Ailey made “Cry” specially for her & all Black Women. Her legacy & what she brought to the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater as a dancer & director changed culture as we know it.

Not Aetna now denying coverage on Stelara for a patient in #IBD deep remission after being on drug for almost a year and suggesting Cosentyx and Taltz as alternative treatment options. Yes, you read that right. 🤬

Sophie Balzora, MD, FACG Aetna Sadly I’ve seen the exact same thing, payers recommending “preferred” meds with no IBD indication. Absurd! Delayed care and the patient ends up suffering, and admin has to schedule that P2P and we tell them the facts 💪🏻. #fightwithus
