Also, I want to emphasize that this discussion is not intended as criticism of doctors or the medical profession. As a physician myself, I have deep respect for my colleagues and for the challenges of modern healthcare. However, Elle’s story is a powerful real-life example of how our fast-paced healthcare system can sometimes leave people searching for answers — and how empowering patients with knowledge can bridge that gap. My goal with this conversation is to open up a dialogue, encourage understanding, and inspire better collaboration between patients and practitioners.
