<p>Simi, an international student in her mid-20s who has now been in the United States for about a decade. She narrates her experiences as a young immigrant finding care in a new country and how that looked different being under the “protection” of the undergraduate system to then transitioning to post-graduation. She explains the sense of isolation and loss that can occur when one&#39;s understanding of society is useless in a newfound country; especially, in terms of how the American healthcare system works. She also narrates how the different laws surrounding the health insurance mandate influenced her experience and the negative turn of her health shortly after the requirement for insurance was removed. She shares with us her experience during her first OBGYN visit and reflects upon ways the experience could have gone better.</p> <p> </p>
