Enjoying running around the Nation’s Capital making the case that diversity in medicine saves lives, and finding time to pause, reflect, and reset … #StayOnMission #BlackMenInMedicine Howard University
#ProudPapaAlert Baby Girl (Camille Capers) brought the drama 🎭 to the Winnipesaukee Playhouse in New Hampshire in Shakespeare’s “Richard III”. Great performance, babe. Thou makest me proud!😉❤️
Congratulations, Sis (Nwando Olayiwola!) So proud of you and proud to say I know you!! Keep changing the world for the better. I’m in this fight with you. Looking forward to your always impactful leadership.
As we say around here, “HU in the House!” Thank you Dr Gal Levy (G Levy ) for mentoring these Howard University med students who are interested in joining you in the field of cardiothoracic surgery. Great turnout!! HU_CTSurgery Society of Black Academic Surgeons National Medical Association The Society of Thoracic Surgeons
Couldn't agree more, Kenneth Connell MD PhD FACP FRCP FACC 👨🏾⚕️🇧🇧 . SDOH factors are not only critically important for the onset & natural history of CHF, but play a major role in the multiple readmissions that we see so often in pts afflicted with CHF. We need to pay more attention to it. This is a great start!
I spent so much time walking “down the hill” as an undergrad Howard University to my fav study place (Med-Dent library) or dinner spot (HUH cafeteria). All these years later, I relish any opportunity to walk “up the hill” from #HUHospital to soak up the atmosphere of this great university
One of the perks of giving Grand Rounds Cleveland Clinic, meeting with true giants. 1) Hypertension research expert & PI of ALLHAT & many other trials, Jackson T. Wright ( L) 2) CHF/TXP guru Randy Starling (R). Thanks for coming to my talk gentleman. Howard University American College of Cardiology
Any Academic Medical Ctr that invites me to give Grand Rounds should know that one of my requirements is to have an open Q & A with trainees. Truly enjoyed my time with these Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine and CWRU School of Medicine students.

Great visit to my old stomping grounds The Ohio State University College of Medicine to deliver the 8th annual “Last Lecture.” A highlight: a fireside chat with students. Look closely, I am flanked by 2 previous National Medical Association Presidents! A moving session for all. #BlackMenInMedicine #BlackWomenInMedicine
One of the highest honors given to me by The Ohio State University College of Medicine was the creation of the “Dr Quinn Capers Award”. Given annually to the IM resident who most exemplifies “ a spirit of enhancing diversity and mitigating racism in medicine.” These ladies are the last 5 winners. #Pride #Legacy
Congratulations Carlos del Rio ! Such an important job at such an important university. I look forward to your leadership!
1st Wed of the month means Chair’s Clinical Conference Howard University Dept of Medicine. My time with the residents is very important and non-negotiable for me. Today’s session: demystifying EKGs!
47% of voters think that med school/residency/fellowship interviews should stay virtual, 19% vote for in-person, 34% like offering both options. Thanks for voting and for a good #MedEd discussion. Howard University our IM residency and fellowship interviews will be virtual.
