Hollywood loves a dramatic medical scene—but how accurate are they really? 🎬🩺 I spoke on my experience as a medical technical consultant on 20+ films and TV shows discussing what Hollywood gets right and what it gets dangerously wrong. Thanks to everyone who came out! 🎥 #comiccon #publichealth

Fun day in Washington DC! I gave a talk on alternative careers and medicine at The George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences. I then met with U.S. Congressman Raul Ruiz. Lastly, I stopped by one of my favorite DC bookstores, Kramer's.
