My primary care doctor harasses me on and off to lose weight. Once she was outright abusive and screamed at me "You need to lose At Least 50 lb! You need to lose 20 lb FAST! I know I should find another doctor but I have lousy insurance and my town has a doctor shortage. I have been verbally and emotionally abused by doctors since I was a little kid. I need advice from people who have dealt with this issue. Is it worth it to try to stand up for myself and tell her to back off, or should I try to find a doctor who isn't a jerk?
