@RailroadUnderg1 Name her. Shitty dentists only get to continue to make life worse for their patients when we are afraid to call them out. This dentist should be ashamed of herself and it should be publicly known what she is doing.
@RailroadUnderg1 I'm so sorry you have to support that kind of jugement
This thread.
There are many barriers to adequate healthcare for currently & formerly incarcerated people. This is just one example. Until these convos are had we will continue to harm whole communities of people who deserve to be treated with dignity. Especially in healthcare.
@RailroadUnderg1 @4evrstardancer Say, here’s a thought… Since all of you are paying for my VA healthcare, and I’m not paying for your healthcare… Why don’t you try this… As soon as a young person turns 18… You give them free healthcare like at the VA… All may vote Democrat, do military service in school.
There are many barriers to adequate healthcare for currently & formerly incarcerated people. This is just one example. Until these convos are had we will continue to harm whole communities of people who deserve to be treated with dignity. Especially in healthcare.
To no surprise my next dentist visit was a short one. She didn’t care to try hard to clean my teeth because she was convinced I was a meth addict. She didn’t have the friendly demeanor she did when I was a new client. I was just someone to be judged.
Shamefully I said nothing. I knew I couldn’t convince her I wasn’t addicted to drugs. And the truth seemed to carry much more room for judgement and questioning.
I saw the disgust on her face & didn’t know how to explain I spent my entire life in foster care then juvenile halls & prison. I never had access to meaningful medical or dental care in those facilities. But which was worse to her? A meth addict or someone formerly incarcerated?
