The experience of a doctor during her residency, discussing timely topics regarding medicine, prevention, and self-care. An expression of personal struggle, growth and accomplishment with a splash of humor and advocacy for others along the way <3

And on this moonlighting shift, I’m the Miralax fairy. Sprinkling it around wherever my steps take me 😜💩

Happy Saturday! Hope you all had a great week. Time to sneak in some sunshine before the rain happens [again. Philly whyyyy!]

Wowww this is a first- not one but TWO creepers checking out my bowl 🐶😸

Cooked all in about 20 minutes: sautéed cauliflower + zucchini, added in baked mahi mahi at the end. Avocado on the side and topped with @cava green harissa 😍 & made enough for lunch tomorrow ✔️
•
I continue to post pictures of meals from time to time to remind us that it doesn’t have to be pretty or complicated to taste good + feel good. Happy Tuesday 🤗

Scope days best days (sort of, hands sore and low key 😩 with self-frustration tbh) but still my favorite! •
Essentials:
glasses to not be blind and also protect eyes from flecks of bodily fluids ✔️
favorite pen for signing consents ✔️
little purple procedure log ✔️
COFFEE ✔️

But now... it’s weekend time byeeee hope you have a restful few days off! And if you’re working, I won’t say the word, but that’s what it’ll be 😏

And just like that, our 3rd years graduated 😭🎊
•
Off to do amazing things— one as an attending general gastroenterologist, one as a transplant hepatologist, and the third as an advanced endoscopy fellow. The coolest part is that they each had a baby during fellowship too! Badass doctors and parents. Thank you for your wisdom and mentorship. You will be so missed 😘• And Krysta I cant wait to keep you up to date on every last word of gossip 😂❤️

**New Blog Post! A much requested one on this very topic ^^.
•
“Wading through the Weeds: What’s up with CBD?” •
This picture was snapped today as I walked through the mall after work. The number of stores and companies that have picked up on the CBD trend is impressive, but does it really help people for everything we hear about?
•
Inevitably, there will be people upset at what I speak about in this post. At an individual level, I’m sure CBD has really made a huge difference in people’s lives, for certain ailments that I may suggest it really has no effect. I’m honestly very happy that people can find relief from it! That’s not the point though, but rather for us to think how we approach trends that rapidly gain attention, at a population level. •
Please read the blog (linked in my bio) and let me know what you think! I have an open mind and would love to hear every personal story, both good and bad; it’s a luxury to have the ability to gather opinions from you as a group and I’m really thankful for that!
•
Happy Monday everyone. Please comment on the blog or below, I promise to respond 🙏🏻

Realizing I don’t honor this woman enough. She raised 11 wonderful children ( one being my father @jefkrell) and at the age of 93 she still remembers every intricate detail of their lives. She’s a proud Irish Catholic AND one of the most open-minded nonagenarians I know. •
She gave birth to her last child, my uncle Danny, at the age of 40. She worried so much about being healthy and living until he was 18 years old. He’s 53 years old now, and his own son will be a high school senior this year. She now has 5 great -grandchildren! So much of who we are, is because of her. I hope we all continue to make her proud❤️

And again*.

New month is upon us and not sure about you, but I’m ready to click the restart button. The month of May has zapped my energy and I certainly need a change of pace. Consult fatigue is strong and while I absolutely love clinical medicine it’s time for a little break from the pager and back to being in the endoscopy suite 😍 Plus, really looking forward to more time for writing. Writing abstracts, writing blogs, writing mini presentations and a very important maid of honor speech ❤️
•
Ready to begin again and get a little fire back/pep in my step. If you’re feeling the drag, you’re so not alone. Happy Thursday 😘
