Nurse Claps Back at Pregnant Doctor’s Insults: Was It Too Far?

A nurse found herself in a heated exchange with a senior doctor who has a history of belittling her. The doctor, heavily pregnant and on maternity leave, came in to drop off some paperwork and catch up with colleagues. Known for her stylish appearance, the doctor was dressed down and took the opportunity to mock the nurse’s attire once again. However, the nurse’s response left everyone in shock, and now she’s questioning if she went too far.
