Pediatric palliative care doctor and medical educator. I help people talk about hard things. He/him. Opinions my own.

Went for my covid and flu vaccine appointment today and to my surprise there was a wait.
There was a steady stream of people coming in for both vaccines.
I didn’t even mind the wait.
It felt like hope.

As a palliative care doctor, the painting “The Doctor” by Luke Fildes always seemed in complete to me.
So I used AI to reimagine it with the full palliative care team on board.

Serious illness is lonely. No family should go through it without a team.

🙏🏼 So honored to be invited to present the opening talk of the wonderful ALPM conference by Canadian Society of Palliative Medicine
✨Got a chance to talk about one of my favorite topics: how we talk with others inside and outside healthcare about the wonderful field palliative care

🔥 New video: “Hard Questions”
We get asked a lot of hard questions in pediatric palliative care. Often, they’re different than you might think.

✨It’s hard to put into words what an incredible experience it was was to attend End Well in person after watching it for years virtually
✨Being invited as a speaker alongside so many visionaries was one of the true honors of my career thus far

So excited for this year’s End Well conference!
After years of watching as a fan, I’m beyond honored to be a speaker this year alongside incredible colleagues

No amount of polling could ever be as predictive of how we care for each other as a society than the piles of unreturned shopping carts
