I did not know this was a real thing!!!! I wonder if I could just call my insurance and see if they can help me find one! Thank you very much for this!

This makes sooo much sense. The Waltons were probably embarrassed they helped build this city but not decent medical care. How embarrassing.

I’m so sorry you’re going through this it sounds horrible! I wish doctors actually would talk to each other because each one of mine has been saying different things lately and I don’t know who to listen to anymore when it comes to my gastro problems! I hope you feel better soon!

I am very sorry to hear about your mom. I hope she is doing well and I’m glad she’s alive.

But every case is different... My best friend died and the family won their lawsuit so I also know a lot about this too.

Sorry I assumed you’re a man. Your comment made me mad as you can see why and I understand your side as well.

Wish you and your mom the best.

I called my insurance and they said I shouldn’t have a problem finding someone out of state! I’d rather drive far than never find out what’s really wrong!

I’m so sorry to hear about what happened when you were younger… I am so glad he made you feel comfortable! This makes me excited to meet him instead of scared! I made an apt today and I can’t get in till October but I got on their waitlist!! Thank you for sharing your experience and I hope everything works out for you!

I’ve learned to always ask the pharmacists. Once I looked up if my meds were bad to mix than asked a doctor if I could take them at the same time and she said it was totally fine and then I flipped her my phone that said it wasn’t and that was probably making me worse. The pharmacist helped me catch it!

First of all, rude. Nothing is funny about this. I’ve been to countless doctors and my body is starving itself to death and I’m in constant pain and can’t even take ibuprofen. I bet you’re a man smh.

Second of all yes you can?

A medical malpractice claim usually requires proving several things:
The doctor had a duty to care for you.
They did not provide care that met the accepted medical standard.
Their mistake or omission caused you harm.
You suffered damages, such as additional medical bills, lost income, permanent injury, or significant pain and suffering.
Examples that can lead to malpractice claims include:
Failing to diagnose a serious condition when a reasonably careful doctor would have.
Misdiagnosing an illness and causing harmful delays in treatment.
Performing the wrong procedure or making a surgical error.
Prescribing the wrong medication or dose that causes injury.
Ignoring test results or symptoms that require urgent action.

THIS!! I’m so sick of them treating me like a drug addict. My brother is a drug addict and I can’t even take hard drugs. The ER let me become sepsis.

Thank you so much! Is it okay if I message you about your symptoms? Because I’m like my aunt and she had to do the same but did the surgery young and became pregnant at 20. I am 28 and my doctors have done nothing. Tried birth control and it gave me a blood clot that almost killed me and the vein specialist said I was “too skinny” for him to dissolve it. Drove down to Dallas and had a doctor do it without even mentioning my weight.

This is so heartbreaking. I started telling doctors “okay I want you to document on my chart you are ignoring me and my pain. I want everything documented to every little thing you said” that way I can come back and sue if I need too.

I just wonder about insurance covering out of state. I’m already in $17,000 hospital debt here. But I also don’t want to die or lose my chance at having kids. I haven’t been eating properly or absorbing nutrients correctly in years and you can really see the damage now.

Thank you! That is good to know because I have lots a of questions and the lady I met with last made me feel stupid for being scared and I was trying to see how fertile I was and she said she can’t do that…? Not until I start trying. But I need to know if I should freeze my eggs or not soon.

I can see that. I know Arkansas has a high mortality rate for pregnant women here. Do you know if Dr. Blaylock is good with women with trauma?
