[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve had to yell at 3 doctors in the last two years for talking down to me.

One really did hear me, one was appalled I’d speak to him that way, refused to talk to me once the tests came back and I was right.[/quote]

You sound unhinged.[/quote]

Hi Dr. Ahole.

I’m not surprised by your comment. Women who stand up for themselves or anyone actually are gaslight and told they are crazy.

Your just acting out what you were socialized to do, like robot.

One situation.

In hospital with my mom. In walks Dr…

Dr: I think your mom has a UTI, this is Dr. newbie, I am training her
ME: it’s a stroke
Dr; it’s not a stroke
Me: yes it’s a stroke, it’s not a UTI
Dr: well if it was a stroke she’d has problems with one side
Me: no not necessarily, it’s a stroke. 
Dr: turns to newbie. This is classic UTI, we will get samples and treat with antibiotics 
Me; to newbie… this is classic dr not listening to patients advocate … my mom has a history of TIA’s she has had a massive stroke … so the lesson here is don’t be so quick to ignore you patients advocate and ask for some medical history.

2 hours late 
Dr newbie: you were right no UTI, it’s probably a stroke and perhaps a seizure we will send you to get MRI and other tests.
Me: where is the other dr.

Dr newbie: yea he’s not coming back. She chuckles

Me: I guess you learned something tonight
Newbie: yes I did
Nurse: I knew it was a stroke too,

We laughed … of course she did.[/quote]
