À propos de cet audio

 This week on Calling in Sick, I’m joined by Dr. Erin Nance — board-certified orthopedic hand/wrist surgeon, founder of FeelBetr, and author of Little Miss Diagnosed: A Surgeon’s Guide to Breaking Bones and Bending Rules. She’s not just a medical provider — she’s a disruptor who deeply understands the trauma of being dismissed and misdiagnosed in modern medicine. Together, we dig into: ⭐ Why women’s symptoms are often dismissed — and the phrase “you’re just anxious” is still weaponized ⚠️ Why chronic illness diagnosis timelines lag — and how to advocate when you’re not being heard 🤝 How to use online communities, forums and social media safely to get answers and avoid misinformation ⚕️What practical phrases & scripts you can use at your appointment to avoid getting dismissed 🌍 The broader health crisis behind infertility and slow population growth… and why it’s not “women choosing careers” Whether you’ve been gaslit in the exam room, dismissed for your symptoms, or want to know how to build a better care team — this one’s for you. xx, Alex 💬 Comment Prompt: What’s the *most* gaslight-y thing a medical provider has ever said to you?
