🧵 Doctors who haven't experienced poverty should have to live on an SSI level income and without insurance for a year. Here are things they would think twice about saying: (1/?) #neisvoid#disability
"Why haven't you gotten your labs done?" (Because I can't afford the fees or transportation) (2/?)
"Just get this OTC med. It's super cheap." (Maybe for someone who has $30 a month to spare.) (3/?)
"You can always try an elimination diet." (You try any special diet on food stamps. Just try it.) (4/?)
"I don't do telehealth." (Okay, glad to know you can pay for my transportation. Wait, you won't?) (5/?)
Feel free to add on! (6/6)
