Medical Gaslighting: Why It Happens & What We Can Do with Dr. E

What's up ladies welcome to class! This week we're talking about something most of us have experienced: Medical gaslighting. I know I've mentioned it many a time on the pod before, but I'm super excited to have Dr. E in class this week so we can dive deep!Dr. E, aka the NP with a PHD, is an author, speaker, podcaster, and recovering medical gaslighter. Her podcast, The Medical Disruptor, "dismantles the limitations of conventional medicine by blending it with innovative, integrative solutions." In our conversation, we discuss the way medical school trains doctors, why conventional medicine is extremely important, the pitfalls of conventional medicine, and the importance of holistic care.What is medical gaslighting actually? Are doctors gaslighting us on purpose? What role do we play as patients and how can we advocate for better care? What does a healthy patient-doctor relationship look like?Dr. E is answering all of these questions and more in this empowerment-packed episode! (p.s., Dr. E's answer to my signature question at the end is one of my favorites so far!)Listen to Dr. E's podcast: https://www.drefratlamandre.com/e-podcastsGet Dr. E's first book, It's Not In Your Head: https://www.drefratlamandre.com/first-bookPre-order Dr. E's new book, It Takes Two: https://www.drefratlamandre.com/new-bookWatch the episode!Sign up for the newsletter (it's free!)InstagramTikTok20% OFF Natural CyclesBe a guest Hosted on Acast.
