Yep! The Ironically Appropriate category of eggcorn. Doctors in generally seem to be signficantly more likely to dismiss/invalidate/disbelieve people on the basis of societal power differentials/group memberships even than bureaucracies/power structures in general. Probably not explicable by the field's domination by white cismale etc doctors, either, although the historical power structures of the medical establishment surely play their part. Regardless, unfortunately the best way to be taken seriously is to be a cis white man in the normal weight range. And most likely neurotypical and not socioeconically disadvantaged, if they can tell this by your speech or appearance.
