    I hadn't been to a primary care doctor in at least 8 years, but I finally got tired of walking around in pain and having to pick and choose what I could manage in a single day. I really appreciated that the doctor listened to me and didn't dismiss my pain because of my age or any other reason. She took me seriously and is actively helping me figure out what's going on. It feels good to finally be heard and supported.
