Treating a chart that doesn't reflect the patient causes a big disconnect between the physician and appropriate care. The only thing I felt like was a waste of the doctor's time. Unaddressed biases in medicine ruins lives mine and my children's specifically. There should be no confusion as to why patients don't follow doctors instructions because we don't trust y'all because you cannot listen.
