Finding a Doctor Who Listens

FINALLY! 🙌🏽 It’s been a struggle trying to find doctors to would actually listen without brushing everything off. I had to switch primary care doctors and I thought I would have to wait until January but I guess I got lucky because I was able to get in there today. After discussing everything with her she recommended that we do a full blood work up. She even did this mouth swab that’s supposed to detect cancers (just as a precaution). She also did another ANA panel since I have had a positive test previously about 5 years ago from another doctor. So now I just have to pray and wait for the results to come back. I know it might sound crazy but I feel a little better mentally because she actually LISTENED to my concerns! 💜

This is so great to hear! 🙌 It really does make a world of difference knowing that you have a provider that listens to your concerns and doesn’t think you’re crazy or it’s all in your head!

I’m so glad! There are good and empathic doctors, we just have to find the right ones for our condition. Please keep us posted for your blood results. Good luck!

That's amazing! I love it when medical professionals actually listen instead of thinking they know what's best without assessment first. Hopefully everything will be fine.

I love when this happens. If my doctor doesn't listen, I then switch. I will drive over an hour to see a good doctor. And when I find one I stick with them, switching practices/locations as needed.
