The intent to remind us that our social media presence is public is important.

A general rule I& #39;d been told was don& #39;t post what you wouldn& #39;t want your mother or a judge to see.

The corollary is that if it& #39;s posted and public people can make decisions based on that.

The impact was chilling and reinforcing a definition of professionalism that has barred and continues to bar people from our profession.

What we need to do is address WHO is defining what is professional and WHAT professionalism really needs to be.

For too long has professionalism been used to stop people from becoming clinicians.

Rather, we need to craft a professionalism that creates a more diverse and human image of our profession.
