Lesbians in healthcare | LGTBQ

We aren't just content creators...we're actually full time gastroenterology nurse practitioners! We're going to tell you how we got into healthcare, the pros and cons of bedside nursing, NP school, and work as full time NPs. We also throw in a few tips along the way :)

    I’ve only seen NPs in years. They are invaluable. Thanks for going in this direction. Also thanks for your content.

    You both are beautiful and amazing! You obviously have a heart for helping not only patients, but helping others that are seeking to follow what you both do in your nursing field. Well done Alex & Whitney!!

    My sister has gastroparesis. A severe case. She is literally starving to death. I don't want her to suffer anymore. She was crying when I left earlier today. I love her so much. I'm so happy for you two. You're both an inspiration as a 50yr old lesbian. I am extremely happy for both of you. Any suggestions will help. Please...

    I am all for people finding love with their soulmates like you two. My daughter is a NP here in Oregon. She just several years ago and the opportunity came to buy a practice so that is what she does now. I was a nursing assistant for over 25 years. The medical field is a worthwhile occupation that really makes a difference.

    As a former Special Ed Teacher for 10 years and then a Hem Onc NP at age 33 until three years ago when I retired I was delighted to hear your stories and backgrounds. Congratulations on your beautiful love story and little family ! I am 69 and a grandmother of teens and love it ! 🫶🏼

    My niece also got tired of bedside nursing. She is now a nurse practitioner in the Seattle area. She loves it!😍

    I thought about studying for an RN degree for a few years (my BA's in illustration). I nerd out about physiology, and more niche fields like nephrology and rheumatology. But after 5 years of working as a unit clerk in a state hospital, I've just gotten so disheartened by the politics, pettiness, and hospitals doing so little about about people being at the job for the salary, boundless, OT, and near unfirability as long as one performs the bare minimum. To be fair, I do know some great RN's, CNA's, LPN's, NP's, PA's, etc.. It's just that when loopholes open the doors wide enough for large numbers to exploit the system, it's almost impossible to detoxify the workspace. Good things are that this job's allowed me some freedom to come out, attend concerts, go on trips, stand up for myself, and get in touch with my authentic self. An NP who I work with recommended getting back into blogging as a career move, and I've been trying to consistently do that while clerking to earn my start-up funding. I'm not sure if private hospitals have less of corruption problem among staff. Or if it differs from state to state. Becoming disillusioned about working in the medical field, I feel like Michael Crichton when he turned his back on the AMA.

    When we need to change doctors, we have found we get better care from nps. We won't consider an office if there is not an np on staff

    En mi país para ser enfermera debes estudiar 5 años...por el día das clases en la universidad y por la tarde-noche haces práctica en el hospital estatal...yo estudié 3 años y decidí cambiar de profesión porque era muy muy estresante...enfermería no es para cualquiera, es una bonita profesión, pero si no tienes vocación mejor es estudiar otra cosa...por eso las felicito no son sólo dos super mamás sino también son dos grandes enfermeras....que bueno...gracias por contar su historia...no dejen de hacerlo...saludos...👍👍

    Interesting the paths we take. Spouse clinical burn nurse specialist. Very smart But dx with MS so knew I had to step up. Went and got MS in guidance and counseling Kinda same as I was finishing they added 15 credit hours and $9.00 for clinical. Yea forget that. Had wanted to be NP since 1979 so always a goal. Couldn’t move had to wait til Missouri developed a program. Same as you worked and school. Hard 2 years but worth it. Then graduated in two months working in a private clinic to owning and running the clinic for 20 plus years. I never liked hospital nursing. Burnt out in the service and ER. So went into public health. Worked for CDC during the AIDes crisis. No money but unbelievably rewarding. Then FNP Loved it all but if I had to do it all over again I would have picked up some business classes along the way. True nursing is so far from business the pennies are hard to count but so necessary. Yes go for it. Learning never hurts you. I went to nursing school with a woman who was 63 years old. She graduated and hadn’t been in school for over 40 years. So no excuses
