Doctors, Nurses and Paramedics should not prejudice medical diagnositics, and reserve their assumptions.

There’s a reason why the ‘Separation of duties’ exists in healthcare systems.

Mental Health Awareness Month—Empty Words, Real Consequences
Awareness?
But I was gaslit.
Discarded.
Humiliated.
Called a slur.
Collapsed.
Alone.

“Even healthcare workers are often shocked at how quickly they are dismissed and disbelieved once they become patients.”

“This disregard of patient experience and patient expertise severely limits medical knowledge. It results in delayed diagnoses, misdiagnoses, missing data, and incorrect data. AI is great at finding patterns in existing data. However, AI will not be able to solve this problem of missing and erroneous underlying data. "

Get your effing racist house in order.

John Oliver addressed medical bias on Last Week Tonight.

Weighing in on the issue was comedian Wanda Sykes, who had undergone a double mastectomy. What did she get for pain relief?

"Ibu-fucking-profen," Sykes said.
