It is nice to know that many women have had terrible experiences with the doctors who are supposed to take care of them. It is nice to be given a heads up on the fact that there are a handful of doctors practicing that should not be simply because they do not know how to treat women and give the proper advice and care out to them. But it is not so nice to know that the majority of the women who have experienced these problems have not done a thing about getting it fixed. Women cannot complain about being mistreated or not taken seriously by their doctor but then not go to any measure to get it fixed. Way to let the women after you fall victim to the same thing.
This is why there are so many problems with healthcare in the first place… and this is the same reason that doctors have lost their licenses before too. If this is such a common problem (even though I have not personally had this occur..yet) then why is no one stepping up to the plate and getting those doctors face to face with the medical board?
As women we have to be concerned and PROACTIVE about our healthcare. If we are not… nothing will ever change. Women can complain until the end of time about these issues but what good is that doing to alert the women who are only a few steps behind you in getting the same type of experience?
TAKE THE INITIATIVE OR DON’T COMPLAIN…. because those that do will be the only ones to see results.
