A big thank you to my friend & mentor Kiran Turaga for his visionary leadership in embedding my palliative medicine clinic within his surgical oncology clinic way back in 2017. Kudos to Varun Bansal & our team for getting the results published 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 #PalliativeCare #MedTwitter

A privilege to have worked with Tony Liu & my colleague Annie Vernon-Cwik, LCSW on this project during spring-summer 2022. We had the honor of interviewing African American elders living in the South Side of Chicago doing legacy work & #oralhistory liebertpub.com/doi/10.1089/pm…

A recent case study publication a/b serious illness conversations (helps get us to “What matters most”) w/ an elderly individual in the setting of an elective ortho surgery written by our fantastic Geri-Palli ‘25 fellow Patty Lee (with guidance from Lauren Gleason MD, MPH, CMD & Sandy Tun, MD FAAHPM)

Can it be appropriate to do a total knee replacement on a 95 year old patient? Wonderful article shows how patient-centered decision making focusing on knowing your patient + what matters most to them can lead to a definitive Yes. Sometimes more is more agsjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jg…
