Jamee Walters, MD (she/her) @jameew.bsky.social · 04/05/2026Any generation making fun of millennials is comical at this point. We’ve been the center of all “problems” since forever. When we graduated college we were so “lazy” and “spent too much money on coffee.” I’m 42 now. Feel free to keep complaining about us. It all bounces off us now. 000

Jamee Walters, MD (she/her) @jameew.bsky.social · 19/01/2026I love how hospitals can afford a billing specialist to constantly message me over a weekend but they can’t afford to higher another social worker, or RT, or literally anyone else who provides actual healthcare. 031
Jamee Walters, MD (she/her) @jameew.bsky.social · 06/01/2026My doc is late. And that’s fine. Bc our system stretches and abuses doctors (and of course other healthcare staff but this is a doc post). So I’ll wait. And hopefully one day the system will stop abusing us so we can be with our patients long enough to really take care them and also not be late. 020

Jamee Walters, MD (she/her) @jameew.bsky.social · 02/12/2025Pro tip: to avoid doing the elf, tell your kid that the elf spies on kids w/bad behavior. Since your kid has good behavior, they don’t need an elf. Does it shame other kids? Sure. Does it save your sanity? Also yes. 🫣 But also, really do we need some elf spying on kids? #followmeformoreadvice 030
