Always a pleasure to hear from you, Vivian. I'm so glad to hear you have an openly Autistic doctor! I think that's still super rare. I know more and more Autistic therapists, but many of them are still closeted. I had a surgical consult with a doctor a few weeks back whom I have no doubt was Autistic -- and it put me at ease immediately, though he didn't explicitly disclose it. I think many of us have learned how to communicate very deliberately and clearly and have systematized many difficult lines of questioning and conversation in a way that can be a real strength in these fields, if only we were included rather than pervasively excluded.
