      Well I have absolutely no doubt he is an amazing doctor, simply dismissing my symptoms without offering any treatment options whatsoever and discouraging monitoring which may show if there is a problem felt very wrong to me. Medical gaslighting of women and people who were assigned female at birth is a serious problem, and it felt very much like that was what was being done to me at this visit. I did not feel heard, and I had to absolutely insist on the stress test to see if there was a problem. It very much felt like the doctor conceited to my request to get me to shut up.

      Although Dr. Rab had many urgent visits that morning and was running very late, I was glad that he took the time to share my hospital ECG with the electrophysiology specialist cardiologist in the office. He did a great job explaining that ECGs are not always accurate as they would like them to be and compared my clinical history with the other cardiac tests I had in the hospital. He was very reassuring that I did not need any cardiac medication.
