And if there's anything we've learned, it is that a complex medical journey is more likely to lead to medical gaslighting.

Hi, it's Jen Hardy!

As host of the Hardy Mom podcast I have heard story after story of medically Gaslighting. It's time to help these patients by giving them a voice.

According to the CPTSD Foundation, medical gaslighting is when a medical professional dismisses a person’s health concerns as being the product of their imagination. They may tell the person their symptoms are “in their head” or label them a hypochondriac.

Unfortunately, patients that endure medical gaslighting can go months, years, and even decades without the medical care they need. Their symptoms are being brushed off, their sanity is being questioned, their lives are being ruined.

This podcast is to empower these patients, give them a platform to share their stories, and bring recognition to what is being done to the most vulnerable population in our society. We acknowledge that there are fabulous doctors, nurses, and medical providers and the point of this is not to take away anything from those professionals.

Unfortunately medical gaslighting has reached epidemic proportions it’s time to reveal the truth and make it stop.

Has it happened to you?
