1 /5 The Estherverse: absolutely unbelievable. i always assumed it was a myth that men get treated better than women in healthcare until today. i brought my boyfriend in, who has the exact same sickness i came down with a month ago. when i came in for it, they asked me very vague questions and the doctor that saw me asked multiple times if i was pregnant, which isn’t a possible thing for me and completely unecessary for the sickness i came in with. they made fun of me for being afraid of needles, left me with things hanging off of my arms without plugging them in, and i was only interacted with for 1 of the 4 hours they kept me there. after everything, they treated it like it was nothing and sent me home with three medications that barely did anything. i brought my boyfriend in, again, for the exact same sickness, and within five minutes he had five nurses in here taking his blood and asking a million important questions. they immediately gave him medication in liquid form, gave him a CAT scan and dealt with everything quickly, respectfully, and swiftly. i’m absolutely disgusted by the difference and i think this medical center needs to learn to treat men and women with the same respect because this makes me not want to recommend this place to any woman in my life, hoping they don’t get treated as badly as i was.
