Hannu Ikonen, MD on Nostr: I'm used to thriving in a field filled with gaslighting dirtbags who undersell ...
I'm used to thriving in a field filled with gaslighting dirtbags who undersell biology & underweigh confidence in scientific explanations and thorough evaluations, instead substituting "vibes" and patient blaming or invalidating explanations in place of excellent medical care.
It almost killed *me*.
I had positive Wells Criteria for clots and was blown off by a midlevel and almost died from a Saddle Pulmonary Embolism, often fatal.
Never be afraid to assert/advocate for yourself.
