Hot off the Press: Study shows that up to 50% of #COVID19 patients may present with GI symptoms including #anorexia and #diarrhea. And these patients had a worse clinical course. Let’s make sure our colleagues and the @CDCgov recognize this new information #NotJustCough

I am proud to lead a professional society that will not stay silent when such horrific acts of hatred and discrimination occur. Our board unanimously recognized the importance of calling out injustices and vowing as a community to be a beacon of compassion, equity and tolerance.

I spent my first day on one of the #COVID19 hospital floors and saw many COVID patients with Pulmonary Emboli. My colleagues are also seeing this. It makes sense in this cytokine storm and marked elevation of D-Dimers. Anybody else seeing PEs? #PE #CytokineStorm

I was so honored to receive this beautiful recognition of 10 years as NYU GI Division Director @nyulangone. My mother always spoke about the importance of “roots and wings” and I was touched to see these words inscribed in glass, now sitting on my desk. #Gratitude #RootsAndWings

Beautiful Sunday Morning. Horrible virus. As I walk to the hospital I notice flowers now blossoming in trees in front of the UN. My interpretation- Globally #WeAreInThisTogether and we WILL get through this storm. #COVID19 #Hope

The power of measurement! This is a gangliocytic paraganglioma of the duodenum. A small endoscopic ruler (called the Napoleon) developed @nyulangone is being used to get an accurate size measurement of 8.5 mm. ✅Learn more here: nyulangone.org/news/endoscopi…

Imagine a drug that prevents a dz that takes 10-15 yrs to develop. A study finds only 42% of participants took the drug, many for <10 yrs & 1/3rd of the tablets were of less quality. How can we conclude anything about this drug? #ColonoscopySavesLives @CNN & @NEJM can do better
