the nurse practitioners i speak to are like "hello, competent adult! here's what i am thinking about in terms of your care. these are the names of the drugs i like and their potential side effects. what sounds good to you?" and the doctors are like "hey, idiot. follow these rules or die. you have never heard of a drug before. how dare you speak to me. bye."

Muchly feel this after my recent hospital stay and surgery. Had the nice experience of having some nurses help me with communicating stuff to docs that the docs weren't quite getting from me, and stick up for me to make sure stuff like name and pronouns were correct without my having to say anything.
