I am a cardiac electrophysiologist. Teaching difficult topics in a simple way is my passion. I am still grieving over Elon's destruction of the formerly robust EP / Cardiology educational community on Twitter. It took years to build and weeks to destroy.

But we will be a Phoenix.

Creating a new patient education video about a.fib.
"The 3 steps of managing atrial fibrillation" 👍
It'll include an explanation of a "cardioversion"

Yes, sometimes you just have to take a mental break and focus on Halloween.

... And the interest in learning about pacemakers apparently continues to rise!
No idea why the surge in interest, but getting educated is always a wonderful thing! 🙏

Welcome aboard 🤦‍♂️

This was excellent, @vanlathan.bsky.social

Scott Jennings is either lying or wildly misinformed about what happened in Chicago. He keeps claiming 37 Tren de Aragua gang members were arrested. As if it excuses zip tying kids.

DHS says 37 were arrested, and only 2 were suspected gang members.

Van Lathan gets it. We can’t lose our humanity.

It should also disqualify him from having any pets. Or being eligible for a firearm.

Whether he's a sadist or a sociopath, the clues were there all along.
It is shameful that such a person has any position of authority, let alone in the US government.

The year is 2003.

17-year-old Stephen Miller is sitting in the back of a school bus talking about torture, as in “Torture is a celebration of human life and dignity."

Miller looks directly into the camera and describes the torturing Iraqis in gruesome detail, as his peers laugh uncomfortably.

ER doc here! This is a lie. Wait times are up because the American healthcare system is an unsustainable business model and a for-profit national healthcare system just doesn’t work. These problems will continue to get worse until we change that system. It literally has nothing to do with immigrants

Vance: "If you're an American citizen & you've been to the hospital in the last few years, you've probably noticed wait times are especially large & very often somebody who's there in the ER is an illegal alien. Why do those people get healthcare benefits at hospitals paid for by American citizens?"

Welcome! Watching you live and came across your entrée to Bluesky at the same time. Wonderful coincidence! 👍

Not sure what exactly happened that resulted in sudden big increase in views for my pacemaker video? 🤷‍♂️
Regardless, I hope everyone is finding it helpful!!
