I have suffered from migraine headaches since I was 12. I went to 4 male doctors that blamed everything from my weight and hormones to one saying that I needed to see a shrink. I was at wits end and was blessed when my last male doctor left and was replaced by a female. Finally someone that not only listened to me but tackled trying to find the cause.
28 years later, I will only see female PCP's as I believe that they listen more and are more concerned about your health.
