Listen "Confront Arrogance"

Episode Synopsis

Vicki was really, really sick after her cancer surgery. Her doctor – arrogant and dismissive – wasn't listening to her symptoms. Fear, combined with anger, gave Vicki the courage to stand up to him. 

Key Takeaway: Confront arrogance.

If anger is the trigger for finding your voice, try to quickly turn that anger into preparing for your medical visits.


Know WHY. If your healthcare provider wants to order a test, a procedure or medication, just ask: “What is the diagnosis that you are treating/confirming?” 

Doctors can’t read your mind. Speak up at your visit so they know what you are feeling.
