My experience was very good. I did not feel the 'need' to express any anxiety whether the Doctor or Nurse would be able to understand me or me them. My 'neurodivergent' social skills was not pitied or made to be of any issue. I simply felt like I was being cared for by humans with an education specifically to understand my medical issues.
