It can feel scary confronting your doctor. You might worry about potential conflict or negative reactions from your doctors when voicing your preferences.

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could…

Feel comfortable and confident at medical appointments. How would your healthcare change if you could assertively communicate your needs and preferences?

And all without ever having to talk to your doctor about your weight or weight loss ever again.

Stop feeling stressed and avoiding your medical appointments, and instead be confident that you will receive the medical care you require and deserve, that's fully aligned with your values and preferences.

03

Change the healthcare system for everyone

What they're saying...

 

As a fat person, your approach to my situation and taking me seriously from the get-go was so refreshing and incredibly validating. It informed my hospital stay in a positive way, advocating for myself the entire time.

I’ve had many bad experiences lately with professionals in hospitals/offices but Dr. Tubman coached me with the utmost care, and now I feel human and like doctors are listening to my concerns and taking me seriously - which is something I’ve found hard to find in the past. Thank you Michelle for restoring my faith that good MDs still exist.Ad

I wanted to just drop a hello and say thank you for our interaction that day. Not sure if you remember me...but had to share...My GP tried to gaslight me into believing it was just my weight. I was furious. Again not listening to me. But I’m feeling good these days. Just taking things day by day. Thank you for being amazing. You change my life and perspective that day. I will be forever grateful.
