Hey everyone!
How's it going? 😊

Communicating with healthcare providers is so important, but it’s not always easy to feel heard.

💬 What’s your experience?

Do you feel your concerns are taken seriously during appointments?
Have you ever had to advocate strongly for yourself to get the care you need?
What tips do you have for making the most out of a doctor’s visit?

This is such an important topic—let’s talk about it! 😊

All the best,
Somya from the Carenity Team 🌷

Absolutely. My GP is an amazing person. She makes time to listen and discuss anything that is concerning me.

@Junej6 Hi,

It’s so heartwarming to hear about your positive experience with your GP. Having a doctor who listens and takes the time to address concerns can make such a difference. 😊

What do you think makes your GP stand out compared to others?
Have they ever given you advice or support that’s been particularly impactful for your health?
Do you think having a good relationship with your GP has influenced how you approach managing your condition?

Your story is a great reminder of how valuable a supportive healthcare professional can be. Thanks for sharing it with us! 🌟

Take care,
Somya from the Carenity Team 🌷

Without a doubt! I have been with my PCP for 20+ years and he or his NP ALWAYS take the time for me and listen. Shame on those Dr's that cant be bothered and rush patients out of an office so they can make time/room for more appointments!
