AFC Urgent Care Hixson TN
“The NP who saw me was so nice. She was thorough, actually listened to me, respected my input of what I **thought** was happening, even though I was wrong (and I’m good with that- I’m not a dr). Her approach was one of true patient care and not just a “nah, here’s some antibiotics, go away”.
It’s hard for women to be believed in a medical setting, and we **normally** have to be pushy in order to be heard. I didn’t need to do that with her. I wasn’t forced to go into “super aggressive advocate for myself” mode, she listened, and that’s actually super rare (even if it shouldn’t be).
I’m in pain still, but it will heal, and I left feeling understood, heard, respected AND taken care of. Women don’t often have the luxury of being able to say that after a doctor’s appointment.
ETA- her name was Christina, and she was awesome!”
