Are You Being Medically Gaslit? | Dr. Efrat LaMandre

You leave your doctor's office with "everything looks normal" ringing in your ears, but your body is telling you something else. This week Dr. Anna talks with nurse practitioner Dr. Efrat LaMandre, aka Dr. E, about medical gaslighting, why "you're fine" often means "I ran out of tools," and how to advocate for yourself without burning every bridge with your doctor.

You'll learn:

The difference between "normal" and "optimal," and why it matters

What "pre-disease" is and why most providers aren't equipped for it

How to describe your symptoms so your doctor actually listens

Why one provider can't be your whole healthcare team

How to trust your own intuition instead of talking yourself out of it

If you've ever been told you're fine and known you're not, this one's for you.
