Kim Porter complained of chest pain prior and her doctor didn’t do a thing. Now she is dead.

I really believe they are trying to kill us. This is why we need to keep pushing our brothers and sisters into the medical field and encourage them to stick with it, because they can be the difference between life and death for us.

Search around for black doctors, especially my ladies. I got mine! And I know for sure I’m having a midwife if and when I decide to have a baby.

I have personally experienced how doctors ignore symptoms in black women. I have almost potentially died Several times because a doctor ignored symptoms. I can see how it happens. Be safe out here. Be vigilant about your medical care. Demand better
