Your Turn To Talk: Navigating our health care system

Navigating our health care system is rarely easy, but it’s especially difficult when you don’t know who to go to with questions.

How do you establish care after moving to a new city? What do you do if you want a second opinion on a cancer diagnosis? Is there something you can say if you feel like your emergency room doctor isn’t listening to you? Dr. Divya Shroff hears these questions all the time. As the former chief medical officer of TriStar Centennial Medical Center in Nashville, she has an expert-level understanding of how our medical system works. Today, she’s live on This Is Nashville to answer your questions about navigating interactions with doctors.
