Kick rocks, Dr. Herpolsheimer. KICK. FREAKING. ROCKS. @WHASNV Never thought that a medical professional would act with such blatant disregard for their patient's well-being.
We are all entitled to our opinions, however different they may be; however, this was NOT the setting. We put an inherent trust in medical professionals to care for us at our most vulnerable, and I feel like this interaction was a metaphorical slap to the face. #OBGYN#LasVegas
I was sitting in this room, naked save for two extremely thin pieces of paper, alone with a strange man I'm meeting for the first time who is about to perform an exam of my reproductive system, and his response left me floored. @WHASNV
The lack of basic human empathy in the world astounds me.
I met with a new Dr for my annual.
"I have anxiety."
"Why?"
“My husband’s family is in southern Lebanon and his grandmother’s home was destroyed.”
"Well, were there missiles in their garage?”
ARE YOU KIDDING ME? #WHASN
I’m absolutely devastated for the people of America today.
Check on your friends.
Look after each other.
We’re all in this together, and the fight is just beginning.
A truly dark day for America.
