Doing Harm: The Truth about How Bad Medicine and Lazy Science Leave Women Dismissed, Misdiagnosed, and Sick by Maya Dusenbery

3.5

About as infuriating a read as you can imagine. I work in a medical-adjacent field and let's just say I believe it. Absolutely wild how doctors will assume that women are just "hysterical" or "emotional" or whatever the dismissive word du jour is instead of considering that maybe... possibly... women know when something's wrong with their bodies?? I know, what a "crazy" thought, give me some antidepressants!!

Took a star and a half off because it was often a dry read in between the patient anecdotes.
