Let’s decode this head CT together — this started Let’s decode this head CT together — this started with a skull difference present from birth, followed by an early repair, and over time parts of that repair change, creating visible gaps on imaging. This video breaks down what you’re seeing and why it looks that way. #MedicalEducation #LearnSomethingNew #RadiologyExplained #MedicalImaging #headct
At first glance, these X-rays don’t look human — b At first glance, these X-rays don’t look human — but they are. This is a serious genetic condition that changes how the body builds bone, making it fragile enough to bend and break with minimal force. I explain what’s happening, why it looks this way, and how modern treatment and research are working to reduce the overall disease burden. #doctorsofinstagram #medicaleducation #scienceexplained #bonehealth #genetics
Can a heart turn to stone? These images show what Can a heart turn to stone? These images show what happens when calcium builds up around the heart and forms a hard shell. It can squeeze the heart and make it struggle to work properly. In this case, surgeons removed it — and the patient recovered well. Sometimes the most powerful stories are told through images alone. #didyouknow #learnsomethingnew #doctorsofinstagram #medicalimaging #hearthealth
What happens to bone when the kidneys can no longe What happens to bone when the kidneys can no longer do their job? Over time, disrupted calcium and hormone balance can quietly reshape bone structure in ways most people never expect. This reel walks through the connection between long-standing kidney failure and changes seen on medical imaging. #science #medicine #kidneydisease #bonehealth #medicalimaging
As a surgeon, I see a lot of tattoos in my patient As a surgeon, I see a lot of tattoos in my patients. Many tell me ‘don’t worry about them,’ but I do. I care about their art and their surgery and work to preserve the beauty and self-expression they value. Here’s how I approach tattoos in surgery and why it matters. #DoctorsOfTikTok #MedicalEducation #SurgeryInsights #TattooPreservation #PatientCare
This scan shouldn’t be possible. In 25 years as a This scan shouldn’t be possible. In 25 years as a doctor, I’ve never seen anything like it. It’s a real medical scan from a real person — and it raises more questions than answers. Infection? Tumor? Something else entirely? Curious what your brain sees when you look at this. Drop your thoughts below — I’m here to help. #didyouknow #learnontiktok #doctorsoftiktok #medicalmystery #brainscan
A tick bite sounds harmless — until it changes how A tick bite sounds harmless — until it changes how your immune system reacts to food. In this short medical breakdown, I explain how alpha-gal syndrome can cause delayed allergic reactions to red meat, including beef, pork, and even dairy. Most people experience GI symptoms, but in rare cases reactions can be severe. This is real, documented, and important to understand — especially if you spend time outdoors. #LearnOnInstagram #DidYouKnow #DoctorsOfInstagram #FoodAllergy #PublicHealth
Have you ever left a doctor visit feeling frustrat Have you ever left a doctor visit feeling frustrated? Most of the time it’s not about the medical care — it’s about time, waiting, and whether you felt heard. Small things like enough time, staying on schedule, and understanding what the patient actually wants can completely change how a visit feels. These are simple, practical changes that make visits better for patients and doctors alike, without costing more money. #didyouknow #learnontiktok #medicaleducation #doctorsoftiktok #patientexperience
What do you think is the best part of being a surg What do you think is the best part of being a surgeon? For me, it’s the moment after surgery — when a patient wakes up, hears the details, and says thank you with a smile, a hug, or a high five. That moment reminds me why all the long hours are worth it. #DoctorsOfInstagram #SurgeonLife #MedicineWithHeart #PatientCare #MedicalEducation
