Dr. Beyonce Knowles

"Alright, Mrs. Johnson, your physical exam is complete for today. I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary, but I do recommend that you come back next month for your pap smear to ensure everything is in good health," I informed my patient as I pushed my rolling chair back towards the trash can.

With a practiced motion, I removed my gloves and disposed of them properly.

"Yes ma'am" she replied, I quickly washed my hands and grabbed her chart.

"See you next time," I said to Mrs. Johnson as I exited her examination room. Walking over to the nurses' station, I handed them the treatment plan for the patient, ensuring that her follow-up appointment for the pap smear was scheduled and noted.

"I want Mrs. Johnson scheduled for her pap smear next month, please," I instructed the nurses at the station. They nodded in acknowledgment as they made a note of it in the patient's records.

Returning to my office, I settled into my chair and logged into the computer. Pulling up my schedule, I checked to see how much time I had left before my next patient was due to arrive.

I had about ten minutes so I decided to eat a snack, today was one of those days where you had to sneak in to eat because it was so busy. I was the most requested gynecologist in Houston, unfortunately I had to stop accepting new patients.

I picked up my phone and scrolled down social media until a knock was heard on my door, I told them to come in and my nurse came in.

"Hey Dr. Knowles, I have a patient on the line asking if you could squeeze her in today for a moment?" she said and I scrunched up my face.

"Who is it?"

"It's Ms. Onika Maraj, she's requesting an appointment to be checked if you have a quick moment"

I placed my phone down looking back at my schedule, I saw that I could push some patients back, I never knew what these squeeze in appointments would be like, but I was generous if I felt good that day and had the time.

"Tell her to come as soon as possible" I told her as she left out.

I picked up my phone and opened TikTok, hoping to unwind by watching some entertaining videos. As I scrolled through the app, I received a notification from my twelve-year-old daughter, Marleigh.

Memories flooded back of when I had gotten pregnant with her at seventeen and gave birth to her on my eighteenth birthday. At the time, I had been upset about having to share my special day with her, but as I reflected on it now, I couldn't imagine my life without her. She was my baby, and I loved her more than anything in the world.
