I work in a rural hospital, which is quickly becoming somewhat critical access due to closure of other small hospitals nearby. The “Big Beautiful Bill” will devastate our community and make healthcare harder to access for so many. But they want us sick and stupid. #resist #girldoc

When you come to see me, or I go to see you in hospital, I don’t see anything other than someone who is sick, often scared, and needs my help. And to the best and fullest of my abilities I will help you. The strength of a society is in its ability to help its weakest members. #resist #girldoc
