This is the perfect example of why I’m so excited to vote for @drannieandrews.com for US Senate from SC. We need leaders who can help us translate heartbreaking data like this into action!

I’m really proud of this manuscript published today. As a MFM physician I’m on the front lines of the maternal mortality crisis and will continue to do my part to find a way forward. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Heartbroken to learn a friend’s R21 was cancelled. She is studying LGBTQ health in South Carolina. Sadly she is not the only one getting news like this.

The 2025 South Carolina Maternal Morbidity and Mortality report is out. Unfortunately, showing big increases due to the 2021 delta wave of COVID-19. I’m grateful for the work of the committee and SCDPH and holding these families in my heart today. dph.sc.gov/sites/scdph/... #ACOG #ObGynSky

What a loss. This is was the best way to check in (nationally) with pregnant women about pregnancy outcomes, access to prenatal care and health insurance, family planning, physical abuse, breastfeeding and infant care. If we aren’t measuring, we can’t improve care or outcomes

Yes, Medicaid is a health program. But it’s also a major economic driver. Cuts to Medicaid funding will lead to not only poor health but also job losses. Doctors and nurses of course, but also pharmacy, laboratory, dietary, environmental services, purchasing and administration.

Medical research funding is usually both public (NIH) and private (pharma), i.e. the TV drug ads Preterm birth & preeclampsia research is almost entirely non-industry Most pharmaceutical companies avoid pregnant patients like the plague. So freezing NIH essentially freezes our field #MedSky

I am attending #SMFM25 and missing colleagues from NIH and CDC who have a travel ban. But I as I listen to brilliant presentations from British, Egyptian and French colleagues, I am thankfully reminded women’s health research is an international effort. Lots of good work happening around the world.

Oh no. Anyone with insight into what’s happening today at NIH? Let’s hope this is a temporary part of the transition.

Statewide maternal mortality review committees often do not review deaths in pregnancy from homicide, suicide and other accidental trauma (pregnancy associated deaths). These tragedies are under-studied and often not included in prevention efforts.

Take a minute to listen to the farewell speech from the House floor given by my college classmate Derek Kilmer of WA. This was a ray of sunshine, reminding me we still have good people serving in elected office, looking for ways to make constructive positive impacts. www.c-span.org/video/?c5145...

Terrible news from Georgia today. These highly skilled and voluntary committee members are not easy to replace. They were also likely not the source of the leak since all reviewed files are deidentified. www.propublica.org/article/geor...

Advocacy is health care too. South Carolina’s Ob/Gyn physicians are showing up at the State House to stand up for our patients - even when the legislature limits the time for testimony. Thank you Dr. Seal

Anyone worried about the future of women’s healthcare - have no fear. I’m reviewing MFM fellowship applications today and wow! There are so many amazing and talented young Ob/Gyns out there! The future is 😎
