Episode 38: Why We Don’t Trust Most Doctors

Do you feel your doctor has your best interest at heart? Do you generally avoid the doctor’s office at all costs?

Sometimes going to the doctor can feel like a dreadful experience. You tell your doctor your concerns, and they dismiss you.

Mel has had issues with doctors going against her wishes when it comes to her body. She’s had unnecessary medical procedures that caused more harm than good.
