Navigating medical challenges without insurance is a reality I've faced personally.
During medical school, there was a time when I couldn't afford necessary care.
That experience gave me a unique perspective that I value deeply.
It helps me connect on a human level with patients, seeing them as equals rather than from a standpoint of social hierarchy.
When I introduce myself by my first name, it's because I want to break down those barriers.
I'm knowledgeable, but not wealthy, and I strive to meet everyone eye to eye.
How do you think shared experiences shape our interactions?
