If
you have no insurance, look up your nearest Federally Qualified Health
Center (FQHC). They charge on a sliding scale. I paid $20 for a full
visit including labs.

After
3 years of being told my fibroid pain was "just bad periods," I finally
found a Black gynecologist who ordered an ultrasound at the first
appointment. I had 7 fibroids. You deserve to be believed.

I
used the Bias Translator before my rheumatology appointment. The doctor
ordered every test I asked for. First time in 4 years I felt taken
seriously.

As
a Black physician: when a provider dismisses you, ask them to document
their reasoning in your chart. This changes behavior immediately. You
have that right.

Postpartum
depression almost took me out. My OB kept saying I was "just tired." It
was my mother who finally got me to the ER. I am here, I am recovering,
and I want other mamas to know — it is real and treatable.

🛡️ Walk in prepared
Appointment Armor
Black women's concerns are dismissed at
disproportionate rates. This prepares you to walk into any appointment
with language, documentation, and confidence to demand the care you
deserve.
1
Document your symptoms first
Write
down exactly when symptoms started, severity 1–10, and what makes them
better or worse. Objective data is harder to dismiss.
2
Use the Bias Translator before you go
Convert your plain language into clinical terminology. Providers respond differently when you use the right words.
3
Ask for everything in writing
Say: "Can you document that in my chart?" for every concern. A paper trail creates accountability.
4
Bring someone if you can
A witness changes the dynamic. They can take notes, ask follow-up questions, and confirm what was said.
Your Patient Rights
✦You have the right to a second opinion — always, for any reason, no explanation needed
✦You have the right to request specific tests — ask "what would rule this out?" if dismissed
✦You have the right to see your medical records — request them in writing
✦You have the right to refuse treatment — and to ask about all your options
✦You have the right to file a complaint — against any provider who dismisses or disrespects you
