My article

JoeyLiz

Hello ladies,
I am presenting at my professions international conference in Adelaide later this month so they decided to do a lead up article. 
I thought I would share. Sorry the photo is on it's side and I look terrible in the photo!

Excellent!  Best wishes as you'll awaken their senses - one of their profession telling it as it is from a patient viewpoint 
Take care

Good on you @JoeyLiz There are a few of us here who have been working as consumer advocates for years, but we are usually 'patients' when viewed by the medical fraternity. The amount of resistance I have met while trying to explain the user perspective ranges from tolerant with a hint of eye roll to patronising to  downright rude. I don't have a medical qualification so I don't have a valid view; my opinion is driven by fear or ignorance or resistance misinformation  or Google.
No one can say that about you. You will be a better practitioner for your experience and hopefully you can help change the perception of the person on the table. Mxx
