I get these a lot. 99% are med refills, forms, or questions about symptoms. This was different. My patient felt fine. But, he was worried he’d be sent to jail… 1/13 11377140

J. Tom Mueller @jtommueller.bsky.social · 19/10/2023I’ve had multiple papers rejected because it was “something we already know”. However, in all of those cases that “thing we know” is completely absent from any written record. Documenting the “obvious” in the written record is essential for advancing science. 040
