Has any provider here experienced mistrust from a white patient? Fewer patients than others in your clinic? I feel like white patients (and sometimes even other minorities) have a strong but silent preference white (PCPs especially) that somehow they are more reliable or knowledgeable about medicine for “everyone”. I can’t be the only one experiencing this.

Yes, especially in regard to their children. They always come in with lots of research and half of the appointment is sorting through all of that over my very straightforward answer. its exhausting

Well out of all fairness, some of
Us black patients question white Physicians ability to treat us. I prefer a black Dr vs not. I suppose some white patients feel the same. People are just naturally comfortable and trusting with people who look like them in most cases but not all. Food for thought.

Anyone else have a need to exercise daily? A lot of people judge me in a negative way and in reality it is because my ADHD brain needs it. 1) the consistency for schedule 2) exercise can help tone down the symptoms before I sit down for the work day 3) it is the only thing I can control to make it look like I am not a mess (disorganization, interrupting) - basically trying to stay in the game at work based on perception of “having it together”. Just wondering if anyone faces the challenges.

How would you handle not getting a lunch break when you are a salaried employee treating patients for 40 hours a week? I don’t get documentation time either, but all notes are to be completed the same day. Some of us have reached out to HR and we’re told to discuss it with the regional director, but the regional director says we’d have to come in early or leave late to block out a lunch break. My commute is an hour each way, so I’d prefer not to make my day any longer. Advice?

Trigger: rare illness post birth

Just sharing that I was diagnosed with postpartum preeclampsia 3 days after giving birth despite not having risk factors or preeclampsia in my pregnancy. Sharing as I had absolutely no idea about this illness.

Main things to do are check your BP everyday at least the first ten days after you give birth, and go to hospital if it's very high (over 160/110). If you get severe headache or stomach ache then also be vigilant.

Happy to answer any questions!
