Same big urogeek energy, just not on a platform owned by Elon Musk. Urology, Golf, Red Sox, Hotspurs, NY Giants, Nashville SC- not necessarily in that order. Views are my own and do not represent those of my employer (VUMC) or the AUA.
Urology residents and fellows- please take this survey to gauge your perceptions of equity in the field

New format for key takeaway messages at #AUA2024. Hopefully it works even if it’s standing room only. 🤞🏻

(Of course it’s available on demand if you missed it)

Turns out urologists are REALLY interested in clinical trials.

Standing room only in the clinical trials in progress session in the learning lab at #AUA2024

Why has everyone at #aua2024 seen @JenniferARegala except me? I mean I got the lanyard but not the face time…

#aua2024 Tomas Griebling speaking in DEI forum going on in room 304A right now. Outstanding.

Seth Lerner presenting RCT OF SLND VS ELND in bladder cancer @ #aua2024 P2 session. No more extended lymph node dissections! Great work from SWOG group

Pilot poster format at #aua2024. “Walking tours” of the posters. Check out this new format in room 301b throughout the meeting and let me know what you think. I hope to make the meeting more interactive, educational and entertaining

Yesterday was Baby of the Universe day

Today is April Fools day where 19 years ago, my family thought I was playing a bad April fools joke on them…turned out to be the best surprise ever.

I just had one of the best weekends ever with my son at the @SpursOfficial game in London. Amazing how quickly they grow up. A reminder to hug your kids and spend time with them while you can.

(Oh and thank you @SpursOfficial @Sonny7 @TimoWerner @CutiRomero2 for the win!)

It’s snowing in Nashville. A dog has to play…

Father-Son baseball trip #10 (2020 lost to COVID). Always the best weekend of the year (and insane seats too!)

Next year in Miami. Will be special because I will have been to ALL 30 parks. Hoping for a Marlins-Red Sox game.

Southern food with the @AmerUrological/@Uroweb exchange scholars @GMarra_MD @KFKowalewski @driuliaandras. @UroCancerMD in rare form. Good times with friends new and old!

One of the highlights of #AUA23 is always the Vandy Uro Onc Fellow alumni dinner (aka the pocket square dinner in honor of @UroCancerMD ). Another reason I love @VUMCurology
December 15, 2024 at 4:30 PM
So apparently that silly gooner @KeithKow hangs out with some smart people. Some of his best friends are Spurs fans. @Caba_L #AUA23 #COYS

Wise words at the #AUA23 plenary. Convincing, data-driven argument that TP biopsy is the way to go.
December 15, 2024 at 4:30 PM
Highlight of #AUA23 I finally got a JU fanny pack (@JenniferARegala where were you? I thought we could get a picture together!)
December 15, 2024 at 4:30 PM
@uroegg making the VERY persuasive argument that Gl6/GG1 prostate cancer should be renamed something other than cancer at the AUA-CAU Spanish urology meeting at #AUA23.

Scott is right

It was two years ago this month that my father passed away. Not a day goes by that I don’t hear his voice in my head giving me life advice. Your legacy is the people you influence, mentor and help grow. I owe that man everything

If @JenniferARegala coached women’s college basketball, this is what she would wear

Ladies and Gentlemen- I now officially have status in the medical twittersphere....

The Yankees signed Carlos Rodon. SMH

My golf game is going really going to improve next summer because I won’t have to bother following the @redsox

Honestly @redsox ownership clearly doesn’t care anymore and has no respect for the fanbase. It’s just so sad
December 15, 2024 at 4:40 PM
The @RedSox have broken my heart AGAIN. Letting Bogaerts leave is another betrayal of trust for #RedSoxNation Didnt we trade @mookiebetts to create the salary space and build?

I blame ownership 100%. Bloom is a symptom of the disease. @FenwaySportsMgt is the disease.
